By Ross Durand

2pm Greenwich mean time
Standing with your feet on both sides of the line
One in the east, one in the west
Don't know which way to go next

Take the snapshot, walkaway
Don't look back, not today
Don't get distracted with what it means
To find yourself on both sides of things

Standing on the edge of here and there
Stranded between now and then
Don't look down, eyes straight ahead
And take a leap of faith,
You can't walk that tight rope forever
And it don't make sense to stand in one place
When you're standing on the edge, go one way or the other
It don't make no sense to stay

2am local night
Two sides of the bed like to sides of a line.
One side's yours, one side's not
How it got to this, you forgot

Take the snapshot, walkaway
Live to love another day
Don't know where you're going to
But when you get there tell em Ross sent you

Standing on the edge of here and there
Stranded between now and then
Don't look down, eyes straight ahead
And take a leap of faith,
You can't walk that tight rope forever
And it don't make sense to stand in one place
When you're standing on the edge, go one way or the other
It don't make no sense to stay

Creative lyrics, laid-back folk vibe, nice use of the challenge ("Tell them Ross sent you"). Lyrically, this is kind of a "message" song, one that tries to impart some advice. With lyrics like that you always risk coming across as didactic, but I think the emotionally resonant lyrics (like "two sides of the bed like two sides of a line") keep it grounded. I don't have any complaints on this one.
