Milestone

When I face the milestone

For the first time
I can hear the hear a calling
Above the beating of my heart
that's been tearing me apart

And the truth is
This is where I'm standing
Before the fear inside my mind
I'm trying so hard to hide

But the world is moving
As the ground is crumbling
And I'm hoping that heaven waits ahead
But the smoke is clearing
As the firelight is dying
And it feels like I'm stranded on the edge
Because I'm barely hanging on

I don't know if I have it in me
I don't know what is remaining to believe
I can't forget the time gone by
I'm scared to breathe
But I'll cross the last divide

And there's no returning
When I face the milestone

For the last time
There's a past I'm facing
Because I need a way to break
the lock from around my soul

And the truth is
In my dreams I'm crying
Every night I see a truth
I can't seem to leave behind

But the darkness is deepening
As the rain keeps falling
And I'm praying the sun will rise again
But the twilight is fading
As the clock keeps winding
And it feels like I'm tangled in a thread
Because I'm barely hanging on

I don't know if I have it in me
I don't know what is remaining to believe
I can't forget the time gone by
I'm scared to breathe
But I'll cross the last divide

And there's no returning now
When I face the milestone
I'm taking the chance

This is another sad good-bye
It always makes me wonder why
It feels like I walk alone
It hurts me even though I try
So many moments pass me by
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone

I don't know if I have the faith in me
I don't know if I'll make it to the end
I've been so lost, but now I know
I'm not alone
When I cross the last divide

I won't run from the life I'm living
I won't stop until I make it to the end
I won't forsake this voice of mine
I won't look back
When I cross the last divide

Will you hold my hand tonight
When I take the final stride
Will you pray with me tonight
When I face the milestone
