as he travels on the beast of burden moving up along the mountainside as he gazes looking down the valley no regrets but his pride as he journeys across mountain passes insignificance sweeps over him his reflection of the beauty round him feeling empty inside he is running from his wildest thoughts he is running from his everything he is looking now to find something hoping he could be saved he s searching for the answer now it s something that he s managed to avoid up to now real conviction that he craves he needs to find the answer sooner than later pushed himself to the limits he had to strive for all the harder things in life but what the cost to give in now his life his time are the only things that he has life is not a rehearsal all he has is the one chance to get it right leaving really is the only way to know maybe one day they ll forgive him what he s done but now the pain of lying too early in the grave destiny no good to hide away penance now will be his only way understand no good to run away penance now will be his saving grace he tries to make his peace with god all is forgivable but it s left a little late trying something that he s not is it possible to change such a lot he s taken someone s life away there s not a day goes by he regrets what he s done he should have found another way but the good book says an eye for an eye in reflecting on decisions that were made on the judgements that will haunt him till his grave no one has the right to take another life but in his mind he had no choice so be it  destiny no good to hide away penance now will be his only way understand no good to run away penance now will be his saving grace destiny no good to hide away penance now will be his only way understand no good to run away penance now will be his saving grace far far away the man who would be king far far away the man who would be king so far away the man who would be king so far away the man who would be king far far away the man who would be king2
