Nine
years,
Amon
A
long
road,
a
winding
path
We’
ve
seen
the
sun,
we’
ve
felt
the
rain
Now
I’
m
asking,
just
for
the
truth
It’
s
been
nine
years
since
we
started
this
dance
Taking
every
risk,
taking
every
chance
We
shared
the
laughter
that
fills
up
the
room
And
held
each
other
through
the
days
of
gloom
We’
ve
cried
the
tears
that
watered
the
ground
Where
love
was
hidden,
but
finally
found
But
time
keeps
moving,
the
clock
doesn’
t
wait
I’
m
standing
here,
at
the
iron
gate
Are
you
ready,
Amon,
to
take
my
hand?
To
walk
this
road
across
the
promised
land
Will
I
ever
see
that
ring
upon
my
heart?
Or
are
we
living
in
a
world
apart?
Tell
me
the
truth,
don’
t
keep
me
in
the
dark
Do
we
have
the
fire?
Do
we
have
the
spark?
Look
at
our
boys,
they’
re
growing
so
tall
Watching
your
shadow,
they’
re
bound
to
fall
Right
into
your
footsteps,
right
into
your
ways
Are
you
the
father
who
leads
through
the
haze?
Would
you
be
happy
if
they
become
like
you?
With
all
the
dreams
that
you
tried
to
pursue?
You
still
have
time
to
mold
them,
to
guide
their
soul
To
be
the
man
who
makes
our
family
whole
Are
you
ready,
Amon,
to
take
my
hand?
To
walk
this
road
across
the
promised
land
Will
I
ever
see
that
ring
upon
my
heart?
Or
are
we
living
in
a
world
apart?
Tell
me
the
truth,
don’
t
keep
me
in
the
dark
Do
we
have
the
fire?
Do
we
have
the
spark?
I
don’
t
want
to
assume
that
it’
s
never
to
be
I
don’
t
want
to
live
with
a
lock
and
a
key
But
the
silence
is
heavy,
it
weighs
on
my
chest
I
need
to
know
if
you’
re
passing
the
test
Are
you
ready,
Amon,
to
take
my
hand?
To
walk
this
road
across
the
promised
land
Will
I
ever
see
that
ring
upon
my
heart?
Or
are
we
living
in
a
world
apart?
Tell
me
the
truth,
don’
t
keep
me
in
the
dark
Do
we
have
the
fire?
Do
we
have
the
spark?
Nine
years,
my
love
It’
s
time
to
choose
What
do
we
gain?
What
do
we
lose?
Tell
me
the
truth,
Amon (
