Only When It’s Time

The spiral drops deeper still

Staircase won’t let me go 

White knuckles hold tight to the rail 

Faith says it will help me grow 


When running doesn’t help anymore 

I’m forced to draw a buried breath 

While I learn what the pain’s here for 

Time hangs between life and death 


My old life sits beside me now 

Dirty hand on a pale white thigh

Not so sure it was even mine 

Was this life ever really mine?


Caught between the dark and light 

The pendulum swings 

And rests only when it’s time

Only when it’s time
