Angela Evans - Swan Song lyrics

I saw a woman running up the stairs of Casa Loma* Looked at her determined face, hoping she could win this race I know exactly how she feels, I feel it all the time Running nowhere, running nowhere I have a certain staircase of my own, it seems to follow me around And every time I fall it kicks me when I'm down It doesn't have an ending I'm convinced I should ignore it But every now and then I take a step I just can't help it And, oh, I crave the momentary win Oh, foolishly again But if this is my last chance, if I've done it all wrong If I've been a joker all this time and here's my swan song I won't be the one to cool the torch, won't be the one to swim to shore You won't find me saying I could have done, I could have done more If I'm going down, I'm going down swinging Yeah if I'm going down, I'm going down swinging There's something in that inconsistent pace that starts a rhythm The illusion of control is why we chase and never give in Relief will come so seldom to the ones who can't rest easy And I stand in between, my staircase and what pleases me Most, I've always been a different girl Oh, stuck between two worlds But if this is my last chance, if I've done it all wrong If I've been a joker all this time and here's my swan song I won't be the one to cool the torch, won't be the one to swim to shore You won't find me saying I could have done, I could have done more If I'm going down, I'm going down swinging Yeah if I'm going down, I'm going down swinging There is rumbling from the ground and a calling from the staircase I am taken by the sound, of others in the same place Who are asking themselves, where they ought to be And when the woman running by, stops to get some water I can see it in her eyes, she's fully in her power And I know for sure, there is one more, step for me ‘Cause if this is my last chance, if I've done it all wrong If I've been a joker all this time and here's my swan song I won't be the one to cool the torch, won't be the one to swim to shore You won't find me saying I could have done, I could have done more If I'm going down, I'm going down swinging Yeah if I'm going down, I'm going down swinging
