I have never seen this coming.
I have never climbed so high.
I have never thought this could

be the crossroads of my life.

I have never seen the choices,
I have never soared the sky.
I have always thought I am
living just to stay alive.

I let myself fall that night
to be carried by the sound.
I let it all just happen
without restraint or bound.

I was afloat in the night,
and it was the only route.
I could not hear my thinking.
The din was drowning it all out.

I went further and further.
The music swallowed me whole.
I had to push more and more
to know how deep I could fall.

I felt my grip slip away,
and my time was running out.
There would be but one instant
for me to vanquish my doubt.

How long since I slept?
How long since I ate?
How long since I felt?
How long since I cared?

I have never heard the voices.
They have never made me cry.
I have never thought this would
be the crossroads of my life.

I have never seen the choices,
I have never soared the sky.
I have always thought I am
living just to stay alive.

I have never seen this coming.
I have never climbed so high.
I have never thought this could
be the crossroads of my life.
