Edge and Back
How'd I let it get this far? I thought that I was living large
But I was just singing in a midnight choir with all my drunken friends
Hearing peoples backwards talk. Ignore the only truth there ever was
Me I'm just trying to figure out will the sun come up again
And so I'll wait here for her
I thought that I was lost as I drove headstrong off the tracks
Nothing left to fight for or holding me back
I was heading for destruction with wind at my back
But she was watching over me to the edge and back
Grown too accustomed to the thoughts Keep you depressed and down and out
Well I could stop this tale right there but baby that's not how this ends
I stood my ground and fought them off Any regrets? Well of course there was
Just don't give them a second glance you'll be crying out for days
And so I'll wait here for her
I thought that I was lost as I drove headstrong off the tracks
Nothing left to fight for or holding me back
I was heading for destruction with wind at my back
But she was watching over me to the edge and back
I hear the sound of thunder there is rumbling in the east
The wind is howling madly sending shivers through my being
Like the tortured cries of earth bound souls longing for release
Still I can hear her singing over me
For far too long I listened to the serpents hiss
She held me tight as I clawed my way back from the edge of the abyss
Spent years in a prison of my own making
Finally free
But I was just singing in a midnight choir with all my drunken friends
Hearing peoples backwards talk. Ignore the only truth there ever was
Me I'm just trying to figure out will the sun come up again
And so I'll wait here for her
I thought that I was lost as I drove headstrong off the tracks
Nothing left to fight for or holding me back
I was heading for destruction with wind at my back
But she was watching over me to the edge and back
Grown too accustomed to the thoughts Keep you depressed and down and out
Well I could stop this tale right there but baby that's not how this ends
I stood my ground and fought them off Any regrets? Well of course there was
Just don't give them a second glance you'll be crying out for days
And so I'll wait here for her
I thought that I was lost as I drove headstrong off the tracks
Nothing left to fight for or holding me back
I was heading for destruction with wind at my back
But she was watching over me to the edge and back
I hear the sound of thunder there is rumbling in the east
The wind is howling madly sending shivers through my being
Like the tortured cries of earth bound souls longing for release
Still I can hear her singing over me
For far too long I listened to the serpents hiss
She held me tight as I clawed my way back from the edge of the abyss
Spent years in a prison of my own making
Finally free
