On the Borderline

I'm standing on the borderline

What should I bring or leave behind

From who I was

For who I'm gonna be?

I still haven't packed my bags

It's time to go

And I could not care less

So now, I'll miss the train

A walk's still progress made

I just won't arrive quite as fast

I'm thinking way back

To where I'm from

To the things I had

I feel I've forgotten something

I'm sure that it's probably nothing

But that's based more on fear than on fact

I'm standing on the borderline

Between two states, I'm petrified

To push ahead or turn back homewardly

I'm a shadow of the past

The shadow of a boy,

A boy who couldn't last

They said, "Son, don't change"

And I keep hoping they won't see how much I have

A feeling's not a think you own

But it can be lost

I just want to go home

'Cause home's where the heart is

And when I departed,

I might've abandoned them both

I'm standing on the borderline

Between two states, I'm petrified

I'm standing on the borderline

What should I bring or leave behind

From who I was

For who I'm gonna be?

I'd like to say, "I'm the same person from Yesterday,

Nothing's changed"

'Cause yesterday I was eager to see what awaited

I wasn't jaded

But no!

I can't go back

Youth seemed sweeter

But if I could return, all I've learned would be forfeit

I won't go back

I'm followed by the borderline as I pace forward in my life

Seeking the times I'll long for once they leave me
