On The Verge

Moving down like a stranger
Through the lights of this empty street
Need to hide but don't know where
I just want to leave all this behind

Still the past's on my shoulders
It won't easily get out of me
Years of living behind closed shades
Wounds will heal but scars still show

So many times I tried to start over again
But I always got stuck in second gear

Hear my desperate call begging you to help me out
I can not escape I hang in my own trance
Can you see the gravity of my situation now
It's killing me inside, it puts me down and now
I can't find a way out
I'm on the verge ready to fall
I got to do it I'm ready to do it, ready to fall

Silence clutches my limbs
It overwhelms my skin
My blood's still
And slowly frozen inside out
Wind tears my eyes
Drops drifting down my face
A sense of buss embraed my body as I looked down
By now I could be free if I just stepped forward
By now I would be somehere else
Where life is fair instead of cruel and sad
Where no one feels they're used and oppressed
But I'm still here wrapped in decisions
With both of my feet clamped to the ground
And so you're anxious to hear the last part
Well I got one thing left to say to you
