One Degree Down

No sense in admitting I'm weary from the wait
No sense in pretending that I'm pressing on the gate
No power in a promise that I can find the cause
All it takes are a few mistakes so how can I be sure

What if I fall, what happens next
What if my foundation was a thought out of context
No power in a process that leaves me in the dark
So I'll just go with what I know
It's written on my heart

[Pre-Chorus]
But though it's late in the day

[Chorus]
I know I'll find my way soon
Show me a place in the sun
Cause somewhere on the journey
Is the strength to go on
So let the dark fade
Show me a break in the cloud
Cause every day I'm waiting
Brings me one degree down

No shame in admitting I feel a little scared
No sense in pretending that I'll know before I'm there
No power in a promise with no authority
All it takes are a few mistakes before I'm lost at sea

[Pre-Chorus]
But though it's late in the day

[Chorus]
I know I'll find my way soon
Show me a place in the sun
Cause somewhere on the journey
Is the strength to go on
So let the dark fade
Show me a break in the cloud
Cause every day I'm waiting
Brings me one degree down

I feel this inclination
Leading me to doubt my destination
I used up all my patience all the time
I waited at the station

I don't want to break my sky
I'm not going to come back down
I don't want to lose my mind
I'm too far gone to turn back now

I can't avoid the feeling
Maybe all the signs could be misleading
With all my senses reeling
When I saw my dreams all hit the ceiling

I don't want to break my sky
I'm not going to come back down
I don't want to lose my mind
I'm too far gone to turn back now

[Guitar/Keyboard Solo]
Can't turn back now

No need for reflecting on why it took so long
No need for rejecting this road I'm walking on
No point reminiscing on things I can't repair
All it takes are a few good breaks and suddenly I'm there

[Pre-Chorus]
But though it's late in the day

[Chorus]
I know I'll find my way soon
Show me a place in the sun
Cause somewhere on the journey
Is the strength to go on
So let the dark fade
Show me a break in the cloud
Cause every day I'm waiting
Brings me one degree down

[Chorus]
Find my way soon
Show me a place in the sun
Cause somewhere on the journey
Is the strength to go on
So let the dark fade
Show me a break in the cloud
Cause every day I'm waiting
Brings me one degree down
