Humility on Bleecker Street
|
Exposed my faults until I'm left defeated
|
It's been three years into this relationship
|
This is longer than I ever could commit
|
|
But I feel I'm near
|
But I feel my fear
|
|
I'm standing at the edge of another precipice in life
|
Gotta face my steppenwolf
|
Gotta drag you through the mud
|
When I get there I will see myself
|
I will look for strength within
|
I will be a better woman
|
Hang in there baby, I'm the grain of sand
|
Becoming the pearl
|
|
There are no roll models in rock 'n' roll
|
No women who could have it all
|
The long career,the man, the happy family
|
And here I stand and god I do demand it
|
|
And I feel I'm near
|
But I feel my fear
|
|
I'm standing at the edge of another precipice in life
|
Gotta face my steppenwolf
|
Gotta drag you through the mud
|
When I get there I will see myself
|
I will look for strength within
|
I will be a better woman
|
Hang in there baby, I'm the grain of sand
|
Becoming the pearl
|
|
It's dark in here-Don't know who I am
|
Memories come-I'm wading through the moon
|
Evil side-Wants to drag me down
|
Will power-God,please give me some
|
(I'm hanging onto hope now)
|
|
I'm standing at the edge of another precipice in life
|
Baggage from my family
|
Going back to therapy
|
I will kneel, be humble,tow the weight
|
I will look for strength within
|
I will be a better woman
|
Hang in ther baby, I'm the grain of sand
|
Becoming the pearl
|
