The Promise
I've been swimming up a river
That can swallow me whole
I've been clinging to a dream
That keeps me afloat
I'm dark as the moon
Bright as the sun
In a storm it's hard
To keep your hat on
I take my flag
And plant it on top of the hill
My back against the wind
I'm standing still
The promise of my birth I shall fulfill
From the bottom of a well
Theres only one way out
Going nowhere else
But up to the clouds
I can blow my top
I can blow a kiss
What dosen't kill you
Makes you stronger they say
So I'll take the risk
Blank pages in a book
Once branches on a tree
The head is hard as wood
The heart as soft as leaves
My brain is small
My mind is big
Dying makes you fall
Standing makes you live
