Today, I bartered my essence once more,
Today, I bartered my essence once more,
Today, I bartered my essence once more,
And watched from afar the unfolding chore,
Today, I bartered my essence once more.
Principles, lifetime companions they were,
Principles, lifetime companions they were,
One by one, I sold them away,
One by one, I sold them away,
And watched from afar the fading day,
Today, I bartered my essence once more.
Some flaws resided within my own trust,
Some flaws resided within my own trust,
What could I say, seeing what you'd done?
What could I say, seeing what you'd done?
And watched from afar, the setting sun,
Today, I bartered my essence once more.
Hope, a whisper within the heart's keep,
Hope, a whisper within the heart's keep,
Still, what you chose was for the best, it seems,
Still, what you chose was for the best, it seems,
And watched from afar, life's passing streams,
Today, I bartered my essence once more.
