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
