Verse 1:
E I have battled with the demons for my soul
A Like a soldier unafraid,stood straight and tall
E With strong convictions fought for what i thought was right and wrong
D A E But i wonder when it stands in judgement hall
D A E Will it go down as one too close to call
Verse 2:
E I have faced that cunning ennemy called time
A For awhile i held him cold and to a draw
E As he rode away he said another place and day
D A E 'Cause you can't erase the writing on the wall
D A E Although this one was just too close to call
Verse 3:
E As i wrestled with my deepest fear in life
A I was captured by the shadows on the wall
E I was brave but just the same,i was glad when morning came
D A E Because now and then the footsteps in the hall
D A E Remind me it was just too close to call
Verse 4:
E I have watched my mind dance too close to the edge
A As i stood among the crowd to see it fall
E Sometimes now i cling to what i hope is sanity
D A E I stagger on this fine like that i walk
D A E And wonder is it just too close to call
