Lyrics
Not Going To Fall
As I drive down this dark lonely road
One tear escapes my eye
The landscape passes I look for the answers
I have a hundred reasons to cry
Been trying to figure all this out
Wondering how I ended up here
Every day I fight my way out of the quick sand
Against all odds and engulfed in fear
Chorus
Life's beating the hell out of me
And I can't fight the rising tide
No way I'm going out life's back door
I'm leaving with a bit of pride
Give me a sign throw me a rope
Which intersection do I turn
I stand on the edge of the abyss
About to lose it all
But I'm not gonna fall
I look dispirited as I walk
Thinking maybe I've lost my way
Won't invite the dark side of myself
To control my every day
You won't get what you think you deserve
That's some kind of universal law
But think again if you think I'm crumbling
Rather be dead than to beg and crawl
Bridge
It was so sweet being close to the top
Until that wind starts blowing
Lately it seems I've been hanging on a thread
Never succumb to the demons circling in your head
Repeat Chorus
