On the Edge Songtext

von Spock's Beard

Well I'm out
On the edge
Yes I'm out on the...
Edge

Put on your feet
Put on your face
Put these people in their place

Check your hat
Check your coat
Try to keep your checks afloat

Don't you crack
'Cause they might see
That you're not who you're supposed to be
Keep on firing this hard wire wiring
You can't win; you can't seem to break free

I'm out on the edge one more time
I'm out on the edge in my mind
'Tween a rock and a ledge - yes I'm out
Out on the edge

Inside goes
Outside feels
Like a knife softly
Ripping the wheels of time
You don't know my mind
But I'm telling you - I am telling you now

You cannot hold me - You... you... you!
Cannot hold me down
'Cause I feel like you
Every chance I get
I just get high

I'm out on the edge one more time
I'm out on the edge in my mind
'Tween a rock and a ledge - yes I'm out
Out on the edge

And I can't see the bottom
Can't look down
Yeah

Well I'm out
On the edge one more time
Reaching across the water
For a drink of wine

The empty glass is fading
The children are all waving
And I'm out on the edge

I'm out on the edge one more time
I'm out on the edge in my mind
'Tween a rock and a ledge - yes I'm out
Out on the edge

I'm out on the edge one more time
I'm out on the edge in my mind
On the edge - I'm on the edge
