Running to the Edge

I'd wander the darkest path If it meant you'd be saved It's hard to feel whole When your soul's torn in two One half in the grave I've built up my walls so high I'm not coming down I've been searching for closure but I'm not sure It wants to be found Each day I get older and older And I've lived through a war I'm still soldiering on This life isn't all that I thought I'll find a new place to belong Each way I turn I'm met with a phantom, oh Living in chains My past holds me for ransom And I've grown accustomed to the hurt that entails When my mind starts to wonder and the nightmares prevail And I get caught in the web of every detail How it should have been me instead Each day I get older and older I've lived through a war I'm still soldiering on I might not be sure what I want But I'll find a new place to belong I'm running to the edge I'll learn to make amends Oh, the thought of you still burns I'll only dream of my return Each day I get older and older And I've lived through a war I'm still soldiering on This life isn't all that I thought But one day I'll start moving on
