Counting Cracks

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My knees are shaking Never felt this scared How did I get here With the doorway disappearing And my hands up in the air [Pre-Chorus] I count the cracks across the floor Try to remember what I came for [Chorus] If I take one step, will I break apart? If I say your name, will you hear my heart? I’m standing at the edge of a room I know But everything I was is letting go [Verse 2] The clock keeps turning Like it doesn’t care I taste the question Hanging in the open air And no one answers there [Pre-Chorus] I count the cracks across the floor Then find my courage in the door [Chorus] If I take one step, will I break apart? If I say your name, will you hear my heart? I’m standing at the edge of a room I know But everything I was is letting go [Bridge] Maybe fear is only proof That there’s something left to lose Maybe trembling means I’m still alive I don’t need to feel prepared I just need to meet the air I can cross the distance one breath at a time [Final Chorus] I take one step, I don’t break apart I say your name, you can hear my heart I’m standing at the edge, but I’m not alone The person I was is leading me home [Outro] My knees are shaking But I’m still here
