To the one who knows me better than anyone else...

Solid Ground

How old is old?
Until my mind runs dry or my blood runs cold?
When will I see my last sun rise or my last sun set?
When goals are made and goals are met?
Desires and offered temptation
Less important than forgiveness and exemption

Not too far down
When the days are short and the nights are long
One day soon I will see you around

My rock in a hard place
The same others like to beat against
Stay solid and stay strong
Then lean your back against mine
To become each other's solid ground

Not too far down
When the days are short and the nights are long
One day soon I will see you around

I see in your eyes what you know is my soul
I can't compromise and I can't let go
For my mind feels the burn and my heart takes the toll
But yet I will stand tall and I will stand strong
Leaning against the rock
On my new solid ground

Not too far down
When my days are short and my nights are long
One day soon I will see you around
Feel the fire warm your bones and know I am your solid ground
