Pride by Design

Pride by Design - Kathryn Calder

Lay the lines to hold me in case

My words begin to break

The light strikes, frozen in place

My life will be replayed

When you wind me up

Whispers set me off

I'll be fine

When you're winding down

Silence holds it's ground

We'll be fine

Call, climb up on the rail

We stumble when we're close

We struggle through the finish line

And so, by pride or by design

We crawl before we walk, we bleed

Before we cry out

Hold the night, hold it at bay

This chord of mine, still plays

The star struck, frozen in place

Our life will still remain

When you wind me up

Whispers set me off

I'll be fine

When you're winding down

Silence holds it's ground

We'll be fine

Call, climb up on the rail

We stumble when we're close

We struggle through the finish line

And so, by pride or by design

We crawl before we walk, we bleed

Before we cry out

We crawl before we walk, we bleed

Before we cry out
