Loose Ends

<br>Climbing a mountain<br><br>In darkness<br><br>Stranded alone on the ledge.<br><br>Every attempt that I make to hold on<br><br>Pushes me nearer the edge.<br><br><br><br>Sensing the changes impending<br><br>My thoughts are diffused by despair<br><br>I feel like Im swimming straight up<br><br>Underwater<br><br>Desperately racing for air<br><br>Im racing for air.<br><br><br><br>And the chords struck at birth<br><br>Grow more distant<br><br>Yet, we strike them again and again.<br><br>And we plead and we pray<br><br>For a glimmer of day<br><br>As the night folds its wings<br><br>And descends<br><br>Exposing the loose ends.<br><br><br><br>Surrounding myself with possessions<br><br>I surely have more than I need<br><br>I dont know if this is justice,<br><br>Hard earned,<br><br>Or simply a matter of greed<br><br>A matter of greed.<br><br><br><br>And the chords struck at birth<br><br>Grow more distant<br><br>Yet, we strike them again and again.<br><br>And we plead and we pray<br><br>For a glimmer of day<br><br>As the night folds its wings<br><br>And descends...<br><br>Exposing the loose ends.<br><br><br><br>And the chords struck at birth<br><br>Grow more distant<br><br>Yet, we strike them again and again.<br><br>And we plead and we pray<br><br>For a glimmer of day<br><br>As the night folds its wings<br><br>And descends...<br><br>Exposing the loose ends.
