I'VE STARTED TO CRUMBLE

LIKE AN OLD WALL

SITTING HERE, TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OF IT ALL

I KNOW I MUST BE GETTING CLOSER

OR AT LEAST THAT'S MY HOPE

BECAUSE I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS AFRAID OF STANDING TALL

AND I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS AFRAID

THAT EVERYTHING COULD COME TUMBLING DOWN

AND I'D LOSE IT ALL

 

A MAN CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH

I LAY AWAKE AT NIGHT

THINKING HOW THINGS SHOULD BE

COMPARING TO THE WAY THINGS ARE FOR ME

AND THERE'S JUST TOO MUCH DISTANCE BETWEEN THE TWO

HOW CAN I BRING IT ALL TOGETHER

SOMETIMES I COULD CRY, BUT THE TEARS WON'T COME

I'M DYING MORE THAN I CAN LIVE LIKE THIS

YET THERE'S SO MANY THINGS I DON'T WANT TO MISS

I GUESS THAT'S THE THREAD THAT'S HOLDING ME, GIVING ME HOPE

BUT I CAN SEE IT'S STRETCHING IT'S ALMOST BROKE

I WON'T GIVE UP, I NEVER HAVE BEFORE

I'M DOWN ON MY KNEES, PULLING AT THE CHAINS ON THE DOOR

EVERY TIME I BREAK ONE, THERE'S ALWAYS MORE

I'M GETTING TIRED

THIS ROAD GOES ON FOREVER

EVERY TIME I THINK I SEE THE END

IT JUST GOES AROUND ANOTHER BEND

DISAPPEARING FROM SIGHT

I'M HOLDING ON, I'M STARTING ANOTHER FIGHT

ANOTHER DAY IN ANOTHER LIGHT

I KNOW I'VE GOT TO WIN

TO BE MY WHOLE SELF AGAIN
