The Edge

Here on emotion's edge I sit

A broken man who's empty inside

All too familiar is this bit

Where I lose in this game of life.

 

I know you're going through hell too

Even though you don't believe

I feel the pain that's inside of you

It was never just your love I wanted to receive

 

I'm on the edge of all emotion in my soul

and there's nothing I can do about it.

I can't believe that now I'm never going to know

anything in this life, but this emptiness without you.

 

I know you can't see, but I'm hurting too

Selfish as it may really be

I still just want all of you.

Maybe it'll happen, or maybe we weren't meant to be.

 

When I needed love you pushed me away

So, I did the only thing I know to do

When I felt like there was nothing left I could say

I just gave up because I knew I lost you

 

This feeling of emptiness that lives inside

Makes me feel like I'm worthless

This lonliness that's consumed my life

Reminds me that it's not so far to the edge.

 

I don't want to jump, but do you really care?

There's nothing in this life that meant more to me

But what's it really worth if you're never going to be there?

There's a reason why I still hurt so much don't you see?

 

I just wish we could go back to you and me.

But that can't happen right about now.

My heart continues to bleed

Because it's you that doesn't want to be around.
