I Take A Step

I take a step
Crescendo
Every footstep an eternity
These jaws of suicide
They're pulling me in

I take a step
Diminuendo
I try to slow down
It's impossible
I look down

I take a step
The previous allegro song
Now turned into a sad harmony
I see a string of hope
I grab onto it

I take a step
Away from the string I see a knife
I take hold of it
I attempt to take my life
Then he flashes into my mind. His voice a sweet tune

I take a step
Moving backwards I remove the knife
The beat of my heart strong
I can't do this
I throw my knife. In the dark room it sounds like an orchestra

I take a step
I cannot let myself
Be consumed
I must keep living
For him. For the beat of not only his but all their hearts

I take a step
The once stormy mind
Now sings songs in a crescendo
I find myself in front of him
I thank him for he has saved my life
