Walking a Thin Line
When I awoke not even for a second did I think
That this day could be my last
Just a normal day in the middle of a life
Now left on the brink
The lives of friends hurt and lost
They made no difference to me
Never learning any lesson from the mistakes seen
Traveling down the same road at the same cost
As I lay here all alone
The memories begin to flash
Everything that I've known
Could have spared me life's crash
Now walking this thin line
The line between life and death
The difference of fiction and reality
Now with every breath
I begin to see my own mortality
