R. Anna Powers - Unresolved lyrics

She stands. At the edge of greatness, at the edge of ruin, at the precipice of nothingness Sick of the inertia, wishing she could jump just for a change from standing But she stands out of fear. Undaunted by her hate of everything around her, unmoved by her despair, aching with the fear of growing older every agonizing second Hating herself for fearing the failure Hating this life for not giving her a chance to choose Or maybe hating that she has to choose too much She stands, Not with strength and pride and dignity, but with fear and quaking joints She stands with the uneasy knowledge that no choice she makes will be right She stands in jeopardy of losing everything to gain a life best left unlived She stands in anger of everything that has brought her here and contempt of everything that keeps her She stands in bitter indecision within herself She stands in the eye of a raging storm that began as a spring dew but now she can't stop it She stands because she's scared to fall and can't go back Uselessly the tears of frustration form rivulets on her cheeks but they do little to dull the pain A hateful wind blows cold and she stands screaming to the heavens in misplaced rage Fighting back the moment when all she can do, is try.
