There I stand
On the edge
Toes curl over
I am left
I don't look down
From the cliff
Close my eyes
I take a breath
I wonder what it feels,
Like to fall
See my life flash and,
Not feel small
Feel like I'm flying
After all
But no, I won't ever crumble
I stand tall
As my eyes close
I can see how
I would always
Let them down
So here I stand
The wind howls
Should I just
Jump off now
I wonder what it feels,
Like to fall
See my life flash and,
Not feel small
Feel like I'm flying
After all
But no, I won't ever crumble
I stand tall
Feel adrenaline
Through my veins
Feel the wind
Thrash my face
Hit the bottom
Feel the pain
For the first time
Then never again
Sometimes I sit and ask myself why
What it feels like when you die
To see those faces one more time
To have to say one last goodbye
Which is why I wont comply
I wonder what it feels,
Like to fall
See my life flash and,
Not feel small
Feel like I'm flying
After all
But no, I won't ever crumble
I stand tall
Because I refuse to crumble
I will not be small
Now I feel like I am flying
After all
Because I won't ever crumble
I stand tall
I refuse to crumble
I stand tall
