Broken Sword Lyrics by Christopher Michaud

Islands New and Smoldering

0

Though I have been trying
I never progress
One uphill after another
With this last gasp of air
Could I make it there
To where I always dreamed someday I'd be
The wait is long
My shoulders are only so strong
Battle scarred
This is not the cards for me
Swinging a broken sword
There will be no more of this struggling
There will not be
Struggle to sleep
Struggle to keep myself functioning
How many times must I fail?
Cut down at the knees!
I beg and I plead
The onslaught never seems to stop
This never seems to abate
The wait is long
And I'm trying to be strong
But I'm not strong enough
To lift my arms and protest you
Swinging this broken sword
I can't cut through no more
No resistance, no persistence
Dare I lose myself again?
There's only so much I can do
There's only so much I can say
Stand stronger
Can I be stronger now?
The wait is long
And I must be strong
Embrace the journey
Seek the destination
Let the strength carry me
Swinging this broken sword
Until I find another to defend
I won't pretend
I won't pretend anymore
