When should I start praying
On the ledge or halfway down?
If this is the end
Does it count if I start now?
Drunk on some holy wine
I think I see you through the static
on the tv
How long do I wait
for you?

If someone is up there
Now's your chance
To come out
Leaps of faith mean everything
Until you hit the ground
And concrete eats you whole
I'm scared of jumping
Hold my body as I fall
Into the open air

Again,
For the first time
I feel heavy
For the first time

Breaking bones
Until i'm indestructible
It's not what kills you
But what gets you close
That's gonna
Keep your heart from failing
One more time
I'm losing
Faith like money
But i'm breathing fine

Again,
For the first time
I feel heavy
For the first time

For the first time

Nothing has come
From ever waiting so patiently
Except cold fingers
That are slow to decide
Warm my blood with the
Fear of failing
And welcome the chance of it
Being great
Praying to the midday moon
Asking for a selfish truth,
Shedding the old skin
Taking up more of my room
I'll never be what I want
But I love what I do

For the first time
