The Balance

[00:05.17] As I watch the clock
[00:08.15] My whole heart starts to drop
[00:10.59] Times ticking away
[00:12.83] It doesn't stop
[00:14.87] On that mission again
[00:18.06] Leaving behind what matters the most
[00:21.15] The tears cloud my vision
[00:23.03] I pretend to be fine but that's a joke
[00:26.45] Inside I'm torn to shreds
[00:29.44] Before I fly high I numb the head
[00:31.70] It's part nerves part excitement part dread
[00:34.36] Wish I could tell you
[00:35.47] Something different instead
[00:36.31] It's bittersweet
[00:38.18] I'm off balance
[00:39.66] My choice hangs in the balance
[00:42.11] I love the feeling
[00:43.53] The challenge
[00:45.01] But I love them more
[00:59.27] Time to punch the clock
[01:01.09] The cycle never stops
[01:03.89] I'm feeling pressure to please
[01:06.09] To appease all sides and me
[01:09.12] Don't get me wrong
[01:10.63] Don't misunderstand
[01:12.08] I love my work
[01:13.45] It's my passion
[01:14.74] I take nothing for granted
[01:16.90] Not a thing
[01:18.39] Nothing
[01:30.92] It's bittersweet
[01:32.08] I'm off balance
[01:33.55] My choice hangs in the balance
[01:36.12] I love the feeling
[01:37.51] The challenge
[01:39.22] But I love them more
[01:58.29] As the long hand marks the minutes
[02:00.37] On the clock
[02:01.25] That goes tic then toc
[02:02.84] My soul is aching
[02:06.11] My heart is breaking
[02:18.75] It's bittersweet
[02:19.70] I'm off balance
[02:21.58] My choice hangs in the balance
[02:24.26] I love the feeling
[02:25.48] The challenge
[02:27.34] But I love them more
[02:37.78] But I need them more
[02:41.22] I need it all
[02:43.65] To fulfill the call
[02:45.46] I need balance
[02:46.91]
