The Fall

Falling away
Down into the darkest place I know
Reeling away from the edge
Facing my way down

I close my eyes
Take another breath and just climb
Take every single thorn in my sight
And move on, and on, and on

Face myself or erase myself in the fall
When it's your time, what will they say?
Did you live or die on your last day?

Taken away
Far from every single thing I knew
Forcing myself to forget
Everything below me

And maybe I am sick and I'm tired
But I cannot give up on this life
Because the heart that beats in my chest
Will go on, and on, and on

Face myself or erase myself in the fall
When it's your time, what will they say?
Did you live or die on your last day?
Keep my faith or fade away from it all
I will not go, I will not fade
I will survive another day

Am I alone?
Or does it just feel vacant as it is?
When there is so much distance
Right under my feet

I close my eyes
Take another breath and I climb
For the road that I leave behind
Will go on, and on, and on, and on

Face myself or erase myself in the fall
When it's your time, what will they say?
Did you live or die on your last day?
Keep my faith or fade away from it all
I will not go, I will not fade
I will survive another day
