Closer to the Edge

Shattered by the way I'm living
Now's the time to decompress
I never found a place that fells like home
I spend my days on tidal waves and fits of rage just like Van Gogh
A devil's workshop to my idle bones

It's only what we fear inside
That keeps us from a better life
Becoming something more than who we are
Distracted by the time we spend
On what we could have, should have been
Forgetting that in fact we're getting closer to the edge

Anxiety's delirium, a glory-filled aquarium
Is where I swim around to catch my breath
And everyone I know has changed
The sinner, he remained the same

A city left in ruins
And I paint it to my name

It's only what we fear inside
That keeps us from a better life
Becoming something more than who we are
Distracted by the time we spend
On what we could have, should have been
Forgetting that in fact we're getting closer to the edge

I'll never be
Comfortable as
An aging soul
So let's begin
To recollect
Our tired minds
And the mistakes
That we can't hide
That we can build
A better world
If we decide
Not to let go
We'll quit our jobs
Figure it out
We only got one chance to go
RIGHT NOW
Our time is running out

We're getting closer to the edge
We're getting closer to the edge...
