A Middle Ground - Gwen Stacy

«Here at the end of my walk

I’m looking back and seeing clearly

That along with the way my footsteps

Turned lighter turn by turn

From walking every way yours

I’ve ruined the choice

And lost the voice to speak for myself

Even with these two hands raised

I have no hope for better days

If truth is written in your hands

Then it’s ever-passing from my reach

I am all but the man you thought you knew from before

All my doubts and disbeliefs have brought me to this.»

«Your footsteps grow lighter because I carry you

So turn around, and run away

I’ll run with you

Uncover your eyes

You just have to find a way to let go

A way to catch your breath

Uncover your eyes you blinded child

You’re no better or worse than the ones beside you.»

«Here I am faced with a choice

It’s just so hard to make myself believe

It’s still too hard to fully walk away

Standing on the fault line torn between two sides.»
