​edge of the world
We're on a family trip to seek out the edge of the world
We load up the car full of junk and set off down the road
Head pressed against glass watching days quickly pass and grow old
Not sure of the way but we'll get there someday I was told

Do all the lights intertwine at the edge of the world?
I tell my mommy "I'm a lucky girl to be alive"


We pull up the car and welcome the breeze in our hair
But the sea lapses shore and seasons the condеnsing air
Clouds swirl around and the rain patters down in despair (air)
Wе look for a sign but our hearts knew that no one was there

And the thunder erupts at the edge of the world
I wonder if I am the luckiest girl to be alive


We found small plastic shells and held them in our tiny hands
(oooh)
The sea bit my ankles and gifted me old rubber bands
(oooh)
Rainbow reflections quell hard to my skin and remain
(oooh)
Barnacles peeled into rock pools and drifted away
(oooh)
The kids disappear from the edge of the world
Perhaps they weren't coming home
So I said my goodbyes

Can we play?
Far away?
Wish we were home now
Can we play?
Far away?
Wish we were home now
Can we play?
Far away?
Wish we were home now
Can we play?
Far away?
Wish we were home now

The feathered friend wore a ring 'round his neck
Crashed in the sand and his wings were a wreck
I held his hand and promised I was there
As he took his last breath of fresh air

My heart sinks into ash on the edge of the world
I don't believe I'm a lucky girl to be alive

I'm standing alone at the edge of the world
Am I a lucky girl?
