Steel Against the Tide

Clockwork cage of daily grind
Leaden sky is all I find
Chasing ghosts of hollow dreams
Falling through the broken seams
Weary veins start feeling cold
Stories that were long since told
Break the links of iron chains
Rising past the inner pains

No more shadows lingering
No more shades of gray
I am rising, conquering
Carving out my way

The road is long, the sky is wide
With nothing left to fear or hide!

Steel against the tide, I stand
Destiny within my hand
The fire burns, I reach the sun
The battle for my life has won
With strength of heart I claim the light
Emerging from the endless night
With nothing left to fear or hide!

Paper towers stack so high
Desk of stone beneath the eye
Silent hours pass me by
Waiting for the chance to fly
Spirit screams to be set free
From this dull monotony
Shatter all the misery
Claiming back my legacy

Steel against the tide, I stand
Destiny within my hand
The fire burns, I reach the sun
The battle for my life has won
With strength of heart I claim the light
Emerging from the endless night
With nothing left to fear or hide!

Gravity pulls, but I will rise
Beyond the reach of tired eyes
The power is mine!

Steel against the tide, I stand
Destiny within my hand
The fire burns, I reach the sun
The battle for my life has won
With strength of heart I claim the light
Emerging from the endless night
With nothing left to fear or hide!

The battle won...
Still standing strong!
