Perfect

I walked this lonely route before...
To the places that are outside that door,
To the faces that I've grown to adore.
There is still so much I need to learn,
So much that I really yearn,
But the sadness leads to madness,
And the madness leads to hurt.
The shadows on the wall,
Once again I am about to fall,
Leading down that oh so familiar hall.
I take a deep breath,
Like the ones I took before.
I am at the edge of a knife,
At the edge of the world,
And all I see is her smile.
My body begins to fall,
But then I cling on to the cliff.
Not again...
Never again.
I know what would happen if I fell again,
I know what would happen if I took the deep plunge.
I know...
I pull myself up and look down to where I saw her face,
Where I saw her smile.
I toss my heart down that deep chasm called love,
And I continue to stand.
I'm not going to fall,
I won't wait for your call,
I've done that before,
All of it before.
There was no one to catch me,
There won't be this time as well,
The shadows in my heart,
I'll see them in hell.
Take my heart away and I am just a man...
Perfect.
