Here I stand
|
On the proving ground
|
Mortal man
|
Hiding my failures
|
And I can
|
Leave here without a sound
|
But then where would I be?
|
Broken again, lonely and free
|
Without a friend
|
|
I know I have demons to battle
|
So I pray for the strength
|
that I haven't yet found
|
I'll go where the Diamondbacks rattle
|
And wait for the day
|
On the hot proving ground
|
|
Lately my faith
|
Dwindles like kindling in fire
|
Shimmers and shakes
|
like a ghost in the wind
|
Glimmers and waits for the change to begin
|
Lately my faith
|
|
I know….
|
|
If I hold on 'till the new sun arrives
|
If some small part of my true self survives
|
Then I might run like a child on the sand
|
Never to carry this burden again
|
And oh here it comes, the one thing I forgot
|
The secret I found is the secret I lost
|
But can I believe in the truth I betrayed
|
Can I make peace with the choices I made
|
Help me hold on
|
|
I know…
|
