[Verse 1]
Watching the sun come up
Like I have never seen it before
I have been gone for a long time
There is no place to hide anymore
I feel the light on my face
Touching me down to my soul
Waking up from a bad dream
Something I had to let go
Cannot blame anyone
For all of the damage I have done
I had to face myself
Before I would fall down
I found I could turn around

[Chorus]
Walking away from the edge
While I can still live to tell
Coming back from the dead
On the road between heaven and hell
Freedom comes day by day
Till the demons are out of my head
Walking away from the edge
Walking away from the edge

[Verse 2]
You do not know how lost you are
Till you are spinning out of control
Before you know it you have gone too far
Left the rest of the world far below
Friends are gone one by one
I would pretend I am alright on my own
My disguise just starts wearing thin
Until all I have become is alone
I reached out to anyone
Who would tell me what I would want to hear
But I am the one who could save myself
I could not look down
I turned around
Before it was too late

[Chorus]

Journey

Journey is an American rock band that formed in San Francisco in 1973, composed of former members of Santana and Frumious Bandersnatch. The band has gone through several phases; its strongest commercial success occurred while fronted by vocalist Steve Perry, from 1978 until the group’s disbandment in 1987. During that period, the band released a series of hit songs, including 1981’s “Don’t Stop Believin'”, which in 2009 became the top-selling track in iTunes history amongst songs not released in the 21st century. Its parent studio album, Escape, the band’s eighth and most successful, reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and yielded another of their most popular singles, “Open Arms”. Its 1983 follow-up album, Frontiers, was almost as successful in the United States, reaching No. 2 and spawning several successful singles; it broadened the band’s appeal in the United Kingdom, where it reached No. 6 on the UK Albums Chart. Journey enjoyed a successful reunion with Perry in the mid-1990s and later regrouped with a series of lead singers.
