He looked to the left, then looked to the right
Who could have thought, this would so much strife
He never thought before what pressure it could be
To do something simple, but others would disagree
He opened the car door and slammed it close
He thought no one was watching, but what did he know
He walked across the streat avoiding visous stares
He climed up the steps, he knew it was there
All he had to do, was follow his gut
He knew it was right, he let the door shut
And just one thing was left, he thought he would never do
He had sworn to his mother, and father too
His hand reached the handle, a bead of sweat ran down his eye
After all it was july
He said one two three and pulled on the handle
The church door flew open, he could one bright candle
He walked to pew, and bowed to pray
He dropped to his knees, pushing everything away
He had done, had conquered his only feer
But why had it taken him thirty three years?
