Woke up with the sunrise another day to face
A million miles from home in this cold and empty space
The weight of the world pressing down on my chest
Glorious days behind me but I never found the rest
Memories of victories they whisper in my ear
But the battles left their scars and the path is never clear
Grateful for the journey yet tired to the bone
In this race against the clock I'm standing all alone
Living on the edge in the shadow of my dreams
Far from where I started life's not what it seems
Grateful for the climb though the summit's out of sight
Must keep pushing forward can't give up the fight
Once I was a hero in the eyes of those I knew
Achieved the unexpected but the best remained untrue
The nights grow longer the days blur into one
Still chasing the horizon beneath a burning sun
Memories of victories they whisper in my ear
But the battles left their scars and the path is never clear
Grateful for the journey yet tired to the bone
In this race against the clock I'm standing all alone
Living on the edge in the shadow of my dreams
Far from where I started life's not what it seems
Grateful for the climb though the summit's out of sight
Must keep pushing forward can't give up the fight
Every step I take another story to be told
In the heart of the struggle I find a strength to hold
Though the road is weary and the end seems far away
I carry on with courage to see another day
Living on the edge in the shadow of my dreams
Far from where I started life's not what it seems
Grateful for the climb though the summit's out of sight
Must keep pushing forward can't give up the fight
Grateful for the climb though the summit's out of sight
I must keep pushing forward I can't give up the fight
