The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I get home and it’s already dark
Kick my shoes off leave them in the hall
It’s been freezing in this house since the day that you flew south
Now I’m shivering just trying to sweat you out
As cliché as it seems, I’m strung out on a dream
It’s taking all my strength to keep me clean
Take the edge off, take the edge off
I just need a little taste to get me through the night
Take the edge off, take the edge off
Lord knows what I’d give away to feel you one more time
I know by now for certain for you’ve moved on
Maybe you were someone else’s all along
Slippin’ off your dress, lay your head against his chest
While I’m left here in the arms of my regret
The ceiling spins and shakes and still I cannot escape
There’s only one thing that can dull this pain
Take the edge off, take the edge off
I just need a little taste to get me through the night
Take the edge off, take the edge off
Lord knows what I’d give away to feel you one more time
I’m passing days watching cars
The Sun goes down, their headlights flicker on
Then in the dark, counting stars I wish upon
