Lyrics

If I fly straight, what difference does it make
Every time I take the high road, seems like I lose faith
I don't cross the line, not on purpose anyway
Cause I don't see my reflection when the two-way mirror breaks

But if I fall and I stay down
Oh, if I fall and I stay down
I'll be facing time...if I don't turn around
Gotta turn it around

Well, I'll do the time for ruining my good name
With the devil on my shoulder, I'm surely not to blame
If I could see in front of me I'd never look behind
I'll die a thousand deaths myself but I'm not the killing kind

But if I fall and I stay down
Oh, if I fall and I stay down
I'll be facing time...unless I turn around

I believe in my convictions
I believe I've been led astray
And I can see the light in front of me
Just a little bit more each day
Oh, I believe in my convictions
And I forgive myself for the crimes
I can see the light that's right in front of me
Just a little bit more each...

...time I fall and I stay down
Each time I fall and I stay down
I'll be facing time...facing time

But if I fall and I stay down
Yes, if I fall and I stay down
Oh, if I fall and stay in doubt
I'll be facing time...till it all runs out

Really very, very well done in all respects! Great lyrics, vocals, melody, instrumentation and effective vibe.

Nice rock voice and interesting lyrics. The song has a good groove to it, Kind of puts me in mind of Bonjovi. I also like the sound you got on the acustic guitar.
