I'm holding on to a ledge
My fingers strength is failing
When I let go I will fall
Falling hard and falling fast
I brace for impact
That sudden blow
And the hurt that I know will come
Just hang on just on more minute
And then I will let you go
I am weak and I cant hang on
If only I could pull myself up
A shelf of rock just above my head
But I am not strong enough
Before I fall I say goodbye
Before I fall before I die
Before I fall and crash into oblivion
Before my time that draws close
Before I fall I think of you
Before I fall I try to cling
To all the good memories we had together
Before I fall I try to hold
Onto the memories of our entwined dream
Before I fall I try to breathe
The air that was in your lungs
Before I fall I wish
That maybe you could catch me
Before I fall I imagine
I hear your voice calling me
Before I call I think I see
You walking through the fog
Before I fall I let go of the pain
That I inflicted on myself
Before I fall I forgive you
Of all the things you did and didn't do
Before I fall I need to tell you
That maybe I love you to
Before I fall I need to apologize
To separate my truth from lies
Before I fall I have to wake up
From the nightmares I am trapped between
Before I fall I have to see
If this life was meant for me
