Further On

You're not there
But you want to go
You don't even know why
All the cares
That hold you close
Lock you up in the back of your mind
You stop short
Before you're out the door
Like it's locked from the outside
Your head high
But never really sure
If you'll ever make it out alive

I see you out there in front of me
Like you've been there waiting
You give the burden to send relief
Cause you know what comes further on

Just when
You're making ground
A wind comes to knock you down
You give it all
To get on your feet
You're still standing waist deep
You look out
And hope your gaze
Will find color in the grey
You strip down
To shed the weight
But the shame on your shoulder stays

I see you out there in front of me
Like you've been there waiting
You give the burden to send relief
Cause you know what comes further
I see you out there in front of me
Like you've been there waiting
Promises of what's yet to be
When I'm weary of further on
When I'm weary of further on
Keep me running for further on
Keep me running for further on
