too close to call

i have battled with the demons for my soul

like a soldier unafraid

stood straight and tall

with strong convictions fought for what i thought was right and wrong

but i wonder when it stands in judgement hall

will it go down as one too close to call

i have faced that cunning ennemy called time

for awhile i held him cold and to a draw

as he rode away he said another place and day

'cause you can't erase the writing on the wall

although this one was just too close to call

as i wrestled with my deepest fear in life

i was captured by the shadows on the wall

i was brave but just the same

i was glad when morning came

because now and then the footsteps in the hall

remind me it was just too close to call

i have watched my mind dance too close to the edge

as i stood among the crowd to see it fall

sometimes now i cling to what i hope is sanity

i stagger on this fine like that i walk

and wonder is it just too close to call
