Falling Short

Am I falling short or do I fly 

While I miss the mark do I hit the sky 

And in my wondering do I answer why 

I'm alive 

To make a space - bushwhack a path - 

Leave a sign - dodge the wrath 

Of myself and leave the math to God 

Falling short I've hit the spot 

Of the place where I was shot 

From the womb of my mother 

I've fallen short but is there another 

Place where I could be 

Is short just the place for me to see 

What I can do 

What I've been given 

My holy view of hell and heaven 

Am I falling short or do I fly 

While I miss the mark do I hit the sky 

In my wondering do I answer why 

I'm alive 

I'm alive 

I'm alive
