Lyrics There Is No Refuge - Stackridge

There Is No Refuge

Since my sixteenth birthday
Doubts have plagued my sleep
Each yawning daybreak found me hopeless
Writhing underneath the sheets;
I searched four years to find myself
Some purpose to this life
Dividing wrong from right
Even mere consciousness caused such pain
Walking through the woodland;
Tender springtime leaves;
Those little flowers in the meadow
Speak of innocence and peace:
There is no refuge in this world
No saviour, «Self», nor soul
Discarding every goal
When understanding comes —
There is love
