The Brink lyrics
by Madilyn Mei
[Intro]
Humming along
Just a Bard with a song
[Verse 1]
I thought I knew me better
Playing it safe was
Never my game, guess
I should’ve known I’d never
Feel satisfied
Why am I surprised? Why?
[Chorus]
Why am I always
Standing on the brink of something?
Just out of my reach
I’m standing on the brink of something
New that I want, I know that it’s almost mine
Yet something tells me I’ll
Somehow always be
Standing on the brink of something new
[Verse 2]
I’d beg the universe to
Throw me a bone, but I know
I’m doing fine and just won’t
Settle for fine, it’s my fault
Making them proud, still I can’t
Seem to slow down to take a
Brеathe in, breathe out
I’ll rеst when I settle down in the ground
[Chorus]
Why am I always
Standing on the brink of something?
Just out of my reach
I’m standing on the brink of something
New that I want, I know that it’s almost mine
Yet something tells me I’ll
Somehow always be
Standing on the brink of something new
[Bridge]
Learning it doesn’t
Matter the things
That I accomplish
I’ll always be
I’ll always be
[Chorus]
Standing on the brink of something
Just out of my reach
I’m standing on the brink of everything
That I want, never the time
To celebrate yesterday’s victory when I’ll
Somehow I’ll always be
Standing on the brink of something new
[Outro]
Standing on the brink of
Standing on the brink of
Standing on the brink of (Call me the Bard)
Standing on the brink of (Tho I’m a tortoise, I’ve got nothing to prove)
Standing on the brink of (Now you’ll never be known)
Standing on the brink of (To take on a side quest sometime)
Standing on the brink of (Death is marching steadfast toward us)
Standing on the brink of (See me the same way that I see you)
Standing on the brink of (Call me the Bard)
Standing on the brink of
Everything
