The Gauntlet

The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
I want an itemized list Of every sign that I've missed Every rose-tinted flag and every cyanide kiss Every night that I've wished That I could've split another timeline And never lived a life like this Every time that I've quit Every time that I've flinched When I shouldn't just be biting my lip Every price that I've split Between my pride and my shame Knowing that they don't divide like this Cos somewhere in the multiverse I'm over and I'm underworked I got my just deserts Punishments and honors that are undeserved Somewhere I have everything and nothing earned Somewhere I chose other words That didn't touch a nerve Somewhere I decided that I wouldn't just make something worse And it'd make complete sense With all my pretense That I'd be so alright But when I'm alone tonight I'll see it all escape me With all my daydreams My heart is broken softly The future's closing on me Have I ever been better? Did I miss the chance to get there forever? Am I condemned to my errors? Can you sever a tether And can you lift me to the Nebuchadnezzar So for a second I believe that I can never say never? No chance to reverse Eyes drawn to the rear-view Objects in the mirror matter less than they appear to No path to steer through No-one can hear you Run on alone into the cold unknown I want a repeat prescription For deeper wisdom And the serenity for lifting us up Enough to run the gauntlet through our bloody borders With affinity instilled with unconditional love So give me hope, keep me whole, give me shelter I'll give you everything I've learned from the past, and that's You're not alone and the road hasn't failed us yet And it'd make complete sense With all my pretense That I'd be so alright But when I'm alone tonight I'll see it all escape me With all my daydreams My heart is broken softly The future's closing on me With all I've learned I run With all that's firm, my love And dream I hold enough To give to the world
