The Ultimate Boon

You crossed the threshold when the call to action came
In a sky that's full of fire, ice water in your veins
Boy you better change your pace, the train is down the track
If you got it better use it once it's gone you'll never get it back

And it gets uncomfortable and you gotta shed your skin if you wanna make it out
The stagnant state you're in and all the clothes that they pass down never fit your style
Well of course it's hard as hell but being easy ever is worthwhile

When the road is dark and the night is long
There's a weight that you carry, carry on

When your plane went down, you were left for dead
Somehow you didn't drown, you wound up here instead
Not a living soul in sight a million miles from home
Drawing faces on the stones and blood just so you're not alone

And you spit into the wind and you raged against the tide
Till you made a promise that somehow you'd stay alive
There were nights that got so dark you swore they'd never pass
Now you reminisce on it with ice inside your glass

When your world's in doubt and your faith is gone
There's a grace that you carry, carry on

You stumble home again riddled with battle scars
And the perspective of a thousand tiny stars
That burned out long before we ever saw their light
We can see it now so I guess it turned out right... it turned out right
