Eroded Edge

by Beyond Repair   Jul 6, 2007


Walking on the eroded edge of life again
To my right is left and my left is right
And I don't know what's best
I need to walk away and watch my step
But I cant do that yet,

And I don't know why, no I don't know why,
I cant walk away, but I know I should try
So I bow my head and look strait down
But I'm not afraid to hit the ground

I'm afraid I'm not afraid, I know it makes no sense
But my life's a mess, and if I took one step
Well it'd be my best, And I know its wrong
But non of you would know that I'm gone

Walking on the eroded edge of life again
To my right is left and my left is right
And I don't know what's best
I need to walk away and watch my step
But I cant do that yet,

The stone crumbles beneath my feet
An over all feeling screams that I am beat
But I cant look back yet, And I don't know why
I should turn and run, before I fall and die,
But I can't just yet, no I can't just yet, and I only wish
I had an answer for you and one for myself to
But the only thing I can conjure up
Is feeling like I'm not enough

I take a look around, and I'm not alone
There's so many people at the edge, some call it there home
And it feels good to know That I'm not the only one

Walking on the eroded edge of life again
To my right is left and my left is right
And I don't know what's best
I need to walk away and watch my step
But I cant do that yet,

When your at the edge you got a great view
But when you start to fall that's the first thing you lose
Cause you'll be 6 feet under, one with the earth
So I'll enjoy the scenery and enjoy the people near to me
The one step I cant make cause the bottom don't look that great
But I'm still not afraid, Its just how I'm made
But to lose my life as a whole, doesn't seem like an option anymore
