Holding your breath
What were they all waiting for?
Closer to death
Closer than every before

Hope is just a thing that you say
A shining light that is guiding our way
The edge is just a step away
So many leaps of faith
To take before the fall

Losing your hold
Eating the world from inside
Don't you let go
Take it or leave it behind

Hope is just a thing that you say
A shining light that is guiding our way
The edge is just a step away
So many leaps of faith
To take before the fall

The day that I could talk I was told
The moment that I walked
I was shoved to the ground
The day that I was bought I was sold
The moment that I swam
I was drowned in the sea

Hope is just a thing that you say
A shining light that is guiding our way
The edge is just a step away
So many leaps of faith
To take before the fall
Before the fall
