about

'Trial by Choice' asks, why should everything stay the same? What if I did something to change it?

Anxieties of decision making is something I've always found difficult. Especially when it causes a large change in my life. Sometimes we need to decide if we are dying to live free, or remain shackled to worry.

lyrics

Faced with decisions for better or worse
I forced myself to overcome this curse
Making the wrong choice comes naturally to me
If I make one at all

Trudging the same path
Flogging a dead horse
Help me to safety
Let me loose

I wish there were fruit to pick from this dead tree
Change is the door But I can’t find the key
Does it taste bitter or sweet?
Hell I don’t know if I want to find out

Jump off the bridge
Just to see if I’ll drown
I’ll sail on the sea of embarrassment
And drain my heart of anxiety

Trudging the same path
Flogging a dead horse
Help me to safety
Relinquish the discourse

My head is stammering, spluttering and clogged
Trying to navigate the brain fog
delusions of nothingness destined for me
I need to decide if I’m dying to live free
