Faltered

Starting line
You're in a bind
Past dependencies are all confined
What's to do you need a clue
But you're falling fast
This can't last
Approaching the faultline
Need a grasp
Seemingly standing all alone

I see plainly and simply that I'm in for it now
Life is just a gamble and this hand is wearing me out
I guess that pleasure and pain are one and the same
It can be so hard staying in the game

Now it's getting late and I am laced
With loose ambitions, need to concentrate
On winning this one sided debate.
But the stairs they wind as I climb I grow weary in this state of mind seemingly standing all alone

I see plainly and simply that I'm in for it now
Life is just a gamble and this hand is wearing me out
I guess that pleasure and pain are one and the same
It can be so hard staying in the game

I am faltered
Or am I sheltered by you
Faltered
Or am I sheltered by you

I see plainly and simply that I'm in for it now
Life is just a gamble and this hand is wearing me out
I guess that pleasure and pain are one and the same
It can be so hard staying in the game
