Sisyphian

Have I reached the top or at least getting close?
It's so hard to see through all of the smoke. 
I don't measure progress by the size of the boat.
I just need something that's gonna float.  

I shuttered the windows and locked all the doors.
Then I buried a ghost beneath the floorboards.
Tying new knots in a tattered old rope.
Tried to work out the kinks, but left off the hose. 

There's a few tricks still up my sleeve
but first I may need to pull some strings
There's going to be an unraveling
With any grace, we'll float away.
