You're right.
The world's not black anymore.
But it's still looking grey.
Okay.
It isn't night anymore.
But it surely isn't day.
The world isn't upside down anymore.
But I'm still not looking straight.
The door isn't locked up tight anymore.
But it's still a locked up gate.
I might not be standing still anymore,
But I'm still not ready to run.
My finger isn't on the trigger anymore.
But I haven't put down my gun.
You may not see me cry anymore.
But you still don't see me grin.
No, I'm not shutting you out anymore.
But I'm still not letting you in.
I'm shaking hands with the darkness.
And I'm shaking hands with the light.
But I can't let go of either,
Or they'll see each other and fight.
Don't assume that
Because I don't sink anymore,
That I must be flying.
Just because I'm not dead anymore,
Doesn't mean that I'm not dying.
