Balance - Miles Away

Well I taught I knew something about sacrifice

I was wrong and you put things into line

All the reasoning I once lived by is gone

Won’t look back, straight ahead, face the problems deep inside

Searching, striving, finding my way

Trying to make amends, change from within, brand new start

Yeah I thought I knew about sacrifice

I was wrong and you cut things down to size

And all the feelings that I once lived by are gone

Can’t look back, face ahead, straight into the great unknown

All the selfishness I know

Still I see you give so much,

In all the selfless acts you make

Nothing I say could ever repay the faith

That you’ve placed in my life, every step that we take

I won’t forget about sacrifice made

The benchmark you’ve set and the balance I’ve gained

No longer can I live this life

Caught between two minds just drifting by

Not ever gonna let you down

Cos you showed me risk and gave me reason

I can’t forget about all you’ve shown

The benchmark is set and I will see this through
