On the Edge of Departure

**Intro:** (Whispered) I’m standing on the edge... But I’m too tired to jump... **Verse 1:** Late nights, can't sleep, I'm in a daze, Dreams turn to nightmares, I’m lost in this maze, Life’s a heavy burden, pulling me down, Feeling so alone, no one else around. **Pre-Chorus:** Haunted by the shadows, whispers in the dark, Every step I take leaves a deeper mark. **Chorus:** On the edge of departure, too tired to leave, Caught in the void, can't find reprieve, Heart's heavy, soul’s wearing thin, On the edge of departure, where do I begin? **Verse 2:** Walking through the city, ghosts by my side, Memories of pain, nowhere to hide, Silent tears fall, my voice fades away, Drowning in the sorrow, lost in the fray. **Pre-Chorus:** Bound by the silence, echoes in my mind, Searching for a lifeline, something to find. **Chorus:** On the edge of departure, too tired to leave, Caught in the void, can't find reprieve, Heart's heavy, soul’s wearing thin, On the edge of departure, where do I begin? *Bridge:** Every step I take, feels like the last, Living in the present, haunted by the past, Torn between the silence and the cries, Wishing for a break in these endless skies. **Breakdown (spoken/screamed):** I've been searching for the light, Lost my way in this endless night, Voices in my head, they scream and fight, Telling me to run, but I've lost the might! **Chorus:** On the edge of departure, too tired to leave, Caught in the void, can't find reprieve, Heart's heavy, soul’s wearing thin, On the edge of departure, where do I begin? **Outro:** So here I stand, on the edge of it all, Too tired to rise, too scared to fall, Life’s a journey, but I'm stuck in place, On the edge of departure, lost in space. (Instrumental outro fades) (Whispered) On the edge... on the edge... ---
