i am invictus

Coldplay

Out of the night good covers me
Black as the pit from pole to pole
I thank whatever gods may be
For my own conquerable soul
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not wins, not cried aloud
Under the bludgeoning s of chance
My head is bloody, but I m bound

Beyond this place of rough and tears
Who s fought the horrors of the shade
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid
It matters not how straight the gate
How charged with punishment s the scroll
I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul
I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul

Out of the night good covers me
Black as the pit from pole to pole
I thank whatever gods may be
For my own conquerable soul

It matters not how straight the gate
How charged with punishment s the scroll
I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul
I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul
I am the captain of my soul
