Cards for a Fallen King

I've gotta let go of the pain and regret to get to the deeper side of me,
Most of my life has felt like an act, what I display is what you see,
Though through my years I think I lost a little of who I used to be,

But that shaped me into who I am,
Just a man doing what I can although it never seems quite enough,
Always another challenge that's just too tough,
Life handing me beating after beating,
And it just gets so defeating,
How do I rise from my knees saying "please may I have another?"
I can't even stand my own, I'm relying on my brother,

In love but second guessing every choice because I'm a man who's grown but afraid of living life alone,
Been hurt before so I have to pay attention that I don't pull away,
Cause some stupid fight just to end it my way,
Because I don't wanna say goodbye,
I just wanna take her hand and fly,
I don't wanna leave,
When I was Ressurected, I fancied myself a magician with cards up my sleeve,
But all my cards are on the table, and I'm trying to believe I'm able to have a happy ending in this fable,

I am not the guy who has it going for himself,
Just a person who has problems with his mental health,
Sometimes it feels like there's no end in my sights,
Been nights where I just wanna end it all,
But I know I could never do it, so maybe I need to tear down the wall I hide behind,
Blind myself with the ashes from the flashes of my better parts,
Use my arts to cry out the hate and craft a new sinew,
Look in the mirror with eyes made anew.
