If life for you<br /> Been less than kind<br /> Take a number<br /> Stand in line<br /> We&#039;ve all been sorry<br /> We&#039;ve all been hurt<br /> But it&#039;s how we survive<br /> That makes us who we are<br /> - Survive by Rise Against

One day it's going to break.
The thin ice I'm skating on.
When I try to step back on to solid ground
I slip back on to thin ice
Cracking it ever so slightly.
One day it's going to break.
