Cost

Each and every victory comes at a cost
So what are you willing to give?
Every victory has a bridge to be crossed
So how long can you walk, just to live?

Each victory sparks pride in your soul and it's fire
But the price for your freedom is so extraordinarily high
How far are you willing to go just to fly higher?
Oh, what if you get too close to the sun and die?

Victory! Victory! Shout it from the rooftop
For you've over come a demon in your own mind
The cost! The cost! Don't stand to close to the roof's drop
Of you might just find the demons you didn't leave behind.

In a moment of joy you feel over come
With the pride that you've fought another day
But that moment passes and you succumb
To the feeling in your head that says, "It's doomsday!"

You fought for your victory but you'll die for the cost
For one small victory does not over come your own mind
If no one helps you quick then your entire life may be lost
For your mind kills you slowly and every night you unwind.

So don't cheer too fast and don't smile too quick
For a victory is a mere battle won, not the war
And you may find that you blood runs thick
When the demons come knocking at your door.
