Please come now I think I'm falling I'm holding on to all I think is safe It seems I found the road to nowhere And I'm trying to escape I yelled back when I heard thunder But I'm down to one last breath And with it let me say, let me say Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking Maybe six feet ain't so far down I'm looking down now that it's over Reflecting on all of my mistakes I thought I found the road to somewhere Somewhere in His grace I cried out heaven save me (save me) But I'm down to one last breath And with it let me say, let me say Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking Maybe six feet ain't so far down Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking Maybe six feet ain't so far down, I'm so far down Sad eyes follow me But I still believe there's something left for me So please come stay with me 'Cause I still believe there's something left for you and me For you and me for you and me Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking Maybe six feet ain't so far down Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking Maybe six feet ain't so far down Please come now I think I'm falling I'm holding on to all I think is safe
