I can’t imagine how I got here
With nothing left of me at
Least I’ve lost my fear
But is it finally having the
Courage
Or is it finally
Giving in

I look around at the midnight sky
Searching for answers though
I hardly know why
When the pavement staring
Up at me says my soul
Needs no baring
And the world isn’t sharing
With the likes of those who
Give up after only
Trying for a few
Years to make it

So I can ask the stars all I please
And I can go to my knees
To beg the heavens and earth
To take back my birth
I can stand on this plaster edge
So they can witness my pledge
To work next time around
After I hit the ground
But I can never get
What I’ll always regret
The answers I need
The forgiveness I plead
So I’ll leave this ledge behind
Or above
And I’ll leave you without
Looking back
