Lyrics
On The Edge
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'm on the edge staring into my abyss
No don't let go don't succumb to its grips
Am I in too deep I've lost my way colours fade
A hand reaching out in dumb silence afraid
(But you know that)
A friend in need is a friend indeed
Just let go of blind dignity
You can leave that all behind
In the wake of your will it's for you to decide
I will always be grateful
To the angels that cushion my fall
(Catch me when I fall)
Leading me back to the flame in the darkness
That ignited it all
Why do I grieve for a life that wasn't real
The pain this failure brings is just part of that deal
My unfinished plan never really began
And so here I stand in the stillness a broken man
(And you know that)
A friend indeed will then concede
To relinquish baren hopes and dreams
Then head for the light don't be afraid
A new day will dawn and your peace will be made
But be wary of this guise contended is not wise
The shadows may return to take you
Remember all the pain that stripped you of your name
And left you worthless in the darkness
But be wary of this guise contended is not wise
The shadows may return to take you
Remember all the pain that stripped you of your name
It's time to reveal myself
