• The Canyon

    Eternity...

    My hand is only gripping by a little bit
    and I don't have the strength to pull myself up
    Nor is there a person that would be willing to lend a hand
    I'm stuck on this ledge

    I can barely see the sun anymore
    it has fallen beneath the horizon
    and a dim afterglow gives everything
    a haunting, dead feeling

    Sweat was pouring down my face
    but it's not like I can't let go,
    If I want, I could let myself fall
    I could let it all fall, never to see anything again.

    But I'm not letting myself fall.
    I'll just wait, for one person to finally ride by
    with a firm, good grip
    and pull me back up to safety.

    Eternity.
