The Edge

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You said you'd stay, I said I'd wait All those words we spoke in vain I still recall the bitter taste I guess some things never change And then I think of yesterday And every promise that you made I never thought I'd be The one that you would break [Pre-Chorus] But I will fight until the day the world stops turning (Oh-oh) And they will fall to ashes, I will just keep burning [Chorus] But tonight I need you to save me I'm too close to breaking, I see the light I am standing on the edge of my life [Post-Chorus] Standing on the edge of my life Standing on the edge [Verse 2] So this is how it all turns out You're the hero, I'm left out I should've known you couldn't stand Up for me and be a man I still have dreams of you at night I can't tell the dark from light I never thought I'd be The one you'd leave behind [Pre-Chorus] But I will fight until the day the world stops turning (Oh-oh) And they will fall to ashes, I will just keep burning [Chorus] But tonight I need you to save me I'm too close to breaking, I see the light I am standing on the edge of my life [Bridge] With each step I hold my breath And I'm tangled in your spiderwebs How could, how could I fall And I wonder if you ever cared at all [Pre-Chorus] But I will fight until the day the world stops turning (Oh-oh) And they will fall to ashes, I will just keep burning (Keep burning) [Chorus] But tonight I need you to save me I'm too close to breaking, I see the light I am standing on the edge of my life [Outro] Standing on the edge of my life Standing on the edge of my life (Of my life) I am standing on the edge of my life
