Surely
This is a long tightrope journey for me
But I'll walk this cable till my feet start to bleed
And scarlet leaves it mark beneath me
Warning others on the path to take heed
SUrely it cannot drain all of me
Surely there must be and end
All cables run out of length
So stop the bullshit, lets not pretend
This is a hard climb for me
But I'll pull myself up till I fall
Until my grasp no longer can hold
I'll leave a warning written on that wall
Surely their is a top
Walls arent built that high
Surely I am close to the goal
Stop shaking your head, no need to sigh
This is alot of distance to swim
But I'll tread water till I drown
Surely a passing boat will come
Surely I wont be let down
Surely I'll float into a bouy
And I'll cling as long as I am able
I'll be plucked up from the waves
DOn't laugh at me, my cards are on the table
This is a hard battle for me
But I'll fight until the last breath I take
I have a fighting chance here
Theres alot more yet to take
Surely the battle wont last forever
Surely one side will withdrawl
Surely I'll be victorious
Stop trying to convince me I'll fall
This is alot of courage for me
Usually I turn around and run far away
BUt i've kept one foot in front of the other
Pushing onward every day
Surely I've not far left to go
Surely you'll u nderstand, surely you will see
I'm not just fighting for myself here
But for the man who means everything to me
