Edge of the Start

[Verse 1]
Woke up to a quiet morning
Still wearing yesterday’s doubt
Coffee in a chipped old mug
Staring as the sun breaks out

Shoes by the door keep waiting
Keys on the counter shine
How long do I keep rehearsing
Lines for a life that isn’t mine

[Chorus]
I’m on the edge of the start
Breathing in
I feel my heart
Racing like it knows the way
Even when I fall apart
I’m gonna step through the dark
Trust the cracks to let in sparks
I don’t have to see the end
To move from where I am
On the edge of the start

[Verse 2]
Phone full of faces smiling
Highlights made to look like truth
Scrolling through a thousand stories
Forgetting I can write one too

Fear says I’m not ready
Hope says jump anyway
Maybe every single heartbeat
Is a drum for my escape

[Chorus]
I’m on the edge of the start
Breathing in
I feel my heart
Racing like it knows the way
Even when I fall apart
I’m gonna step through the dark
Trust the cracks to let in sparks
I don’t have to see the end
To move from where I am
On the edge of the start

[Bridge]
What if this is the moment? (oh)
What if this is the sign?
Every wrong turn and wrong word
Still somehow led to this line

So I’ll shake with my courage
Let the doubt fall apart
One small step
Then another
’Til a dream learns to walk

[Chorus]
I’m on the edge of the start
Breathing in
I feel my heart
Racing like it knows the way
Even when I fall apart
I’m gonna step through the dark
Trust the cracks to let in sparks
I don’t have to see the end
To move from where I am
On the edge of the start
On the edge of the start
