Lyrics

[Verse 1] Memories come flooding back The bitter pain of disappointment Of once of having love, but now I only feel loss [Chorus] I'm living on a knife edge At the end of the line Taking all the hard sell I'm looking for a lifeline [Post-Chorus] Hey, now, now Oh, oh, oh [Verse 2] When you ain't got no one in this world It makes you feel useless It gives you nothing to live for, nothing to die for, oh, no, no Well, I'm burning up, burning up, burning up I'm such a long way from home I've got it all to give and no one to give it to [Pre-Chorus] That's why I'm looking for you For someone to whom I can prove That I'm not through, no, no, no, no I'm alive and I need love too [Chorus] I'm living on a knife edge At the end of the line I'm taking all the hard sell I'm looking for a lifeline On a knife edge, oh I'm looking for you now I'm looking for you No, no, no, no [Verse 3] And the doors of love seem closed No matter how hard I try to kick 'em down It seems to all add up in my mind Just going 'round and around and around Well, I'm fired up, fired up, fired up 'Cause there's nothing I can do to change it I've just gotta sit back and wait for my chance to come [Pre-Chorus] That's why I'm looking for you For someone to whom I can prove That I'm not through, no, no, no, no I'm alive and that's the truth [Chorus] I'm living on a knife edge At the end of the line I'm taking all the hard sell I'm looking for a lifeline On a knife edge, oh I'm looking for you now [Verse 4] Memories come flooding back The bitter pain of disappointment Of once of having love, but now I only feel loss There's, oh, there's a pointlessness about it all I've gotta force that to the back of my mind Ah, the important thing now Is just I've gotta survive [Chorus] I'm-I'm living on a knife edge I'm on the end of the line I'm taking all the hard sell I'm looking for a lifeline I'm living on a knife edge I'm living on the end of the line
