[faintlyfalling]

gripping, you catch the edge
finger tips scrape sides to cling
reaching deep you claim your territory
breathing deep you calm to carry

its hard to think all the hours spent
cheating yourself of your truest intents

grasping, you scatter straws
finger tips pull down the nearest face
reaching deep inside you see yourself
breathing deep you calm to save grace

its hard to believe the time burnt
cheating yourself of all the pretty things
no fight ever scared you a thin line
between courage and stupidity pride lies
gripping, you catch the edge
