Breathless

Could it be this easy
Did I just get pardoned
I'm so afraid this is just another letdown
I'm holding my breath

Could I just walk away
In a few simple weeks
The door left opened
Free for me to just mosey out
I'm holding my breath

Is the price finally paid
That I slaved for these long years
I don't remember the final battle
Don't know when I won the war
So I hold my breath

For what if the door is slammed shut
Locked from me again when I try to move
And the war comes to a crashing defeat
Will it have been so bad
To breathe?
