Sing Me a Song

I’m looking down Reflecting on all of my mistakes.. Hear the thunder in the distance See a vision of the cross. We have seen our share of ups and downs, how quickly life can turn around. I’m trying to escape from my hell Alone I drop and kneel I close my eyes begin to pray. Hold me now I’m six feet from the edge and I m thinking Maybe six feet ain’t so far down.
Creed I'm looking down-one last breath Reflecting on all my mistakes –One last breath Hear the thunder in the distance see the vision of a cross- My own prison We have had our shares of ups and downs- My sacrifice How quickly life can turn around- My sacrifice Alone and I kneel- My own prison I close my eyes begin to pray- Arms wide open Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge maybe six feet is so far down- One last Breath
