[Verse 1]
I'm standing on the edge
And I can see myself falling to the ground
That little voice gets louder
And I cannot seem to quieten it back down
[Pre-Chorus]
Slow motion, deep breath
I can take another step
If you do the same
You go that way
[Chorus]
It's been a long road here
But look at all that we've done
Yeah, it's a long way down
But don't forget how far we've come
[Verse 2]
I'm standing on a bridge
And I can see the river rushing down below
And if I leap or if don't
I'm not sure that I could just let go
[Pre-Chorus]
Slow motion, deep breath
I'm not sure if I'm quite there
But you keep me safe
Ooh, and I'll do the samе
[Chorus]
It's been a long road here
But look at all that we'vе done
Yeah, it's a long way down
But don't forget how far we've come
(Don't forget how far we've come)
Yeah, it's a long way down
But don't forget how far we've come
(Don't forget how far we've come)
[Outro]

Pure positivity…it’s an attempt by a sad songwriter to pen something uplifting! I think post lockdown I was more appreciative of the ground I’ve covered in life and happy to acknowledge my successes and joys. It’s easy to forget or even ignore the past and progress.
