Climbing and Crawling
falling and slipping
here i am
trying to get off
of this mountain
i can't find my way...
I guess
while following you i fell
astray
the rocks got higher
the walk was steeper
but i kept plunging deeper
trying my hardest to
catch up with you but
failing through it all
trying my hardest not to fall
but the more i tried
the harder it was to keep myself
up
and thinking of you made it
worse
thinking of our times together
and
how we said they would last forever
made me feel,
i couldn't go on
i tried and tried
even though every time i
sat my foot down it wouldn't let
it come back up
The next thing i knew
the rock i was standing on
started to crack and
i tried to move so i wouldn't
tumble and fall
but i couldn't do anything
but stand still
even though i knew that
i would fall to my doom
that my life as it existed
would be gone
everything i worked for failed
i willed myself the strength to move but my heart was too strong
the rock i was on fell right out from under me
and when i looked down, there was the sea...
I was falling to my death
where i could finally put you to rest
that wasn't what i wanted to do....
I STILL needed, wanted YOU
even though my heart said no,
my head said yes
falling through mid air
thinking about you........
Sorta ironic....
i didn't see my life flash before my eyes...
i just saw YOU
the one i believed in
who i claimed to love from deep within
my hand reached up
and i grabbed a hold
of a ledge
but i didn't have the support
to lift myself up
I was fighting to live
fighting to be with you
TO LOVE YOU................
My heart was too heavy
to let me hold on
it knew that i
didn't belong
and I'd be better off without you
Maybe it's right
maybe it's true
But I'll never know
because i let go.......
of
the Rock
and
YOU........................................
