Within an Inch

No one to the left of me, no one to the right
Meeting with destiny, not a soul in sight
Coming 'round, not far from going down
Faster than what’s good for me, a pounding in my head
Common sense has mutinied, I'm hanging by a thread
Back it down, no time to turn around

Never seen it coming
How was I to know?
Death was looming
Cry out

Can you hear me?
Can you help me?
Can you heal me?
Feels like I'm dying... I’m dying

A chain reaction, catapulted through the air
The main attraction, flesh and bone begin to tear
Pressure mounts like three tons bearing down
Just shy of darkness, like a candle burning out
Warmth spreading through me, what's this feeling all about?
Can't break free of the weight that's pinning me

Nothing could save me
Except the hand of God
He came and gave me
Mercy

Can you hear me?
Can you help me?
Can you heal me?
Feels like I'm dying... I'm dying

My heart starts slowing
Can't seem to catch my breath
Nothing but the knowing
Of being close to death

Don't take me now, I’ve got more to give
I promise to seize the moments and really live
I want to see my children grow
I’m so scared and right now I'm all alone
Give me breath, give me strength to rise
Give me clarity to see through Your eyes
To see people beyond their disguise
Let this cup pass, give me life

Can you hear me?
Can you help me?
Can you heal me?
Feels like I’m dying... I'm dying
