   I have battled with the demons for my soul
  Like a soldier unafraid,stood straight and tall
  With strong convictions fought for what i thought  was right and wrong
  But i wonder  when it stands  in judgement hall
  Will it go  down as one  too close to call
  I have  faced that cunning ennemy called time
  For awhile i held him cold and to a draw
  As he rode away he said another  place and day
  'Cause  you can't erase the writing  on the wall
  Although  this one was just  too close to call
  As  i wrestled with my deepest fear in life
  I was captured by the shadows on the wall
  I was brave but just the same,i was glad  when morning came
  Because  now and then the footsteps  in the hall
  Remind  me it was just  too close to call
  I  have watched my mind dance too close to the edge
  As i stood among the crowd to see it fall
  Sometimes now i cling to what i hope  is sanity
  I stagger  on this fine  like that i walk
  And wonder  is it just  too close to call

[E]  I have battled with the demons for my soul
        Like a soldier unafraid,stood straight and t[A]all
        With strong convictions fought for what i t[E]hought was right and wrong
        But i w[D]onder when it st[A]ands in judgement h[E]all
        Will it g[D]o down as o[A]ne too close to c[E]all

        I [E]have faced that cunning ennemy called time
        For awhile i held him cold and to a d[A]raw
        As he rode away he said anoth[E]er place and day
        'Cau[D]se you can't erase the wr[A]iting on the wa[E]ll
