I’m on the edge of reason, precipice of despair
All definitions blurred, nothing left to share
My cliff crumbles before me, bits of life fall below
My horizon dies beneath the sea, nowhere left to go
Glance to yesterday, memories don’t ask why
Only fear wants me to stay, existence waves goodbye
Step a little closer, the breeze whispers in my ears
Let the ocean waves drown away the tears
Lean forwards, believe, believe you will fly
If you have no life, you simply cannot die
Spread your punctured arms out, float into the blue
There’s no one reaching out who wants to try save you
The cold of addiction drains away with the low tide
Nature cleans over, the place the body died
Do you think my cliff cared that I didn’t stay?
Don’t cry for me,… I learnt to fly today
