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
The sea lapses shore and seasons the calm denseing air
Clouds swirl 'round and the rain patters down in despair
We look for a sign but our hearts knew no one was there
And the thunder erupts at the edge of the world
I wonder if I'm the luckiest girl to be alive
We found small plastic shells and held them in our tiny hands
The sea bit my ankles and gifted me old rubber bands
Rainbow reflections quell hard to my skin and remain
Barnacles peeled into rock pools and drifted away
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 around his neck
Crashed in the sand and his wings were a wreck
I held his head and promised I was there
As he took his last breath of fresh air
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
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?
