Close to the Edge Songtext

von Mark Owen

I was in to,
Like a sudden fix
From a bowl of sugar
To you
And all that you were standing for
Yeah you knew, I was so
Caught up that I could barely
Move to stop you
From having everything and more

Do you pick me up
To put me under
Break me in
So you can choose your ways
To put me back again

You can leave a hole like a nail in my head
You can leave me turned into nothing instead
You can leave me close to the edge
You won't ever hear me hit the ground

Are you in two,
Have you given up have we gone too far
Do you wander
Or are you staying where we are
I abhor you, yet all the while
Sill I adore knowing you
And all that might have been before
Do I say too much to take you over
Break me in so I can choose
My ways to put me back again

You can leave a hole like a nail in my head
You can leave me turned into nothing instead
You can leave me close to the edge
You won't ever hear me hit the ground

Cos I'm floored but not broken
And I'm scarred but I'll heal
Yeah I'm blissfully tortured,
Naked and real
And I'm stung and I'm sorry
But I'm calm now and clear
Like the sky hanging over,
Like the scratch on my shoulder
That I no longer feel, feel

I was into
Too close to the edge
Too close to the edge

You can leave a hole like a nail in my head
You can leave me turned into nothing instead
You can leave me close to the edge
You won't ever hear me,
Ever hear me
Hit the ground
