Balancing The Scales Songtext
Balancing the scale
All my job entails
Making sure that they're prepared
To see the world
Making sure they're fine on their own
When they're old and they're grown
And all I see is shadows
But that doesn't make it easier to let them go
All my job entails
Making sure that they're prepared
To see the world
Making sure they're fine on their own
When they're old and they're grown
And all I see is shadows
But that doesn't make it easier to let them go
I walk past the doors
And the corridors where they grew
And all I feel is emptiness from this emptying nest
Edmund, are you there?
I was unaware how difficult it'd be without you there
I was unprepared
Balancing the scales
Balancing the scale
I did the best I could, but still I have failed
Still I have failed
Still I have
Failed
Balancing the scales
Want them to see the world
But I'll always scared
Balancing the scale
All my job entails
Making sure that they're prepared
To see the world
Making sure they learn
Making sure they're perfect
Making sure their worth is always something that they know
But it doesn't make it easier to let them go
And the corridors where they grew
And all I feel is emptiness from this emptying nest
Edmund, are you there?
I was unaware how difficult it'd be without you there
I was unprepared
Balancing the scales
Balancing the scale
I did the best I could, but still I have failed
Still I have failed
Still I have
Failed
Balancing the scales
Want them to see the world
But I'll always scared
Balancing the scale
All my job entails
Making sure that they're prepared
To see the world
Making sure they learn
Making sure they're perfect
Making sure their worth is always something that they know
But it doesn't make it easier to let them go
