Lyrics

Verse 1:
E
I have battled with the demons for my soul
A
Like a soldier unafraid,stood straight and tall
E
With strong convictions fought for what I thought was right and wrong
D a e
But I wonder when it stands in judgement hall
D a e
Will it go down as one too close to call

Verse 2:
E
I have faced that cunning ennemy called time
A
For awhile I held him cold and to a draw
E
As he rode away he said another place and day
D a e
'Cause you can't erase the writing on the wall
D a e
Although this one was just too close to call

Verse 3:
E
As I wrestled with my deepest fear in life
A
I was captured by the shadows on the wall
E
I was brave but just the same,i was glad when morning came
D a e
Because now and then the footsteps in the hall
D a e
Remind me it was just too close to call

Verse 4:
E
I have watched my mind dance too close to the edge
A
As I stood among the crowd to see it fall
E
Sometimes now I cling to what I hope is sanity
D a e
I stagger on this fine like that I walk
D a e
And wonder is it just too close to call
