You reminded me of a time when everything wasnt so balanced When a step this way or that would throw my entire life out of line And it forces me to realize I'm walking on a cliff without a steady handrail A rusted culmination of metal and paint flakes the only life vest before I'm taken over by these waves that threaten to drag me under You remind me that life is unpredictable That happiness is not constant That effort must be continuous for a payoff I can't float in a sea forever without drowning I cant stand at a cliff edge letting my eyes guide me instead of my feet and trust that the wind wont push me over the edge You remind me that right now will change And I'm still not sure how to feel about that
