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
