The Reckoning

By NeedToBreathe

Lyrics

Goin' to California

Suitcase in my hands

Never run away a boy

When you can walk away a man


Pride it comes to find you

In your hopes and in your dreams

Like a thief who tells his lover

He's got one last thing.


'Cause I can see the shadows

At the foot of my door

I can see the faces

That don't doubt us anymore

I can see it coming

I pray I don't go blind

In the middle of our reckoning time


Easy is a refuge

And it's an easy place to be

But when the sun shines on you

What will the whole world think


'Cause I can see the shadows

At the foot of my door

I can see the faces

That don't doubt us anymore

I can see it coming

I pray I don't go blind

In the middle of our reckoning time


Whoa

Whoa

In the middle of our reckoning time


The nature of the broken

Spirit of the chosen

We stand alone

A journey through the purpose

The weight of when it's worthless

The roads don't show

In the middle of our reckoning time


Goin' to California

Suitcase in my hands

Never run away a boy

When you can walk away a man
