Fall

©2002 Michael D. Renneker

 

Standing in a storm, the wind is at my back, but I am stable

High on a mountain road, the jagged rocks below, but I am calm

When I’m a about to lose it over something stupid

I can hold it together

When the sun has not yet risen on my disposition

I still see the light

 

and if you ask me why this is, I don’t know

but it all comes down to this

 

You never let me fall

Even when I got down there and crawled

You never let me go

even when I could not sink more low

You never let me fall

even when I had no hope at all

You dragged me from the river, attitude and all

You never let me fall

 

The enemy returns, he is disguised as habit and temptation

With flag in hand he tries to stake his claim, my soul, but I’ve a shield

when the war between the factions of my heart is raging

there’s a peaceful surrender

if I slip and fall into the brightly colored darkness

I can choose the light

 

and if you ask me why this is, I don’t know

but it all comes down to this

 

chorus

 

feels like I’ve just pulled a crime, was sentenced to years in jail

the Judge, He let’s me off each time no matter how bad I’ve failed

 

and if you ask me why this is, I don’t know

but it all comes down to this

 

chorus
