Sword of Damocles
 

Sword of Damocles

We walk the wire
Under fire
Working toward
What we desire
Heavy hangs above our heads
The sword of Damocles

On the edge
You had to know
You were in charge
Could not let go
Now the spotlight rests on you
You’ll walk a mile in another’s shoes

Jagged point
Above your head
Suspended by a hair
Time to learn the difference
In what is and isn’t fair

When it’s over
Looking back…
You’ll realize
What you lacked
The strides amid the difficulties
Shadow the sword
Of Damocles…

Jagged point
Above your head
Suspended by a hair
Time to learn the difference
In what is and isn’t fair
