The Edge lyrics

[Verse 1]
You said you'd stay, I said I'd wait
All those words we spoke in vain
I still recall the bitter taste
I guess some things never change
And then I think of yesterday
And every promise that you made
I never thought I'd be
The one that you would break

[Pre-Chorus]
But I will fight until the day the world stops turning (Oh-oh)
And they will fall to ashes, I will just keep burning

[Chorus]
But tonight I need you to save me
I'm too close to breaking, I see the light
I am standing on the edge of my life

[Post-Chorus]
Standing on the edge of my life
Standing on the edge

[Verse 2]
So this is how it all turns out
You're the hero, I'm left out
I should've known you couldn't stand
Up for me and be a man
I still have dreams of you at night
I can't tell the dark from light
I never thought I'd be
The one you'd leave behind
[Pre-Chorus]
But I will fight until the day the world stops turning (Oh-oh)
And they will fall to ashes, I will just keep burning

[Chorus]
But tonight I need you to save me
I'm too close to breaking, I see the light
I am standing on the edge of my life

[Bridge]
With each step I hold my breath
And I'm tangled in your spiderwebs
How could, how could I fall
And I wonder if you ever cared at all

[Pre-Chorus]
But I will fight until the day the world stops turning (Oh-oh)
And they will fall to ashes, I will just keep burning (Keep burning)

[Chorus]
But tonight I need you to save me
I'm too close to breaking, I see the light
I am standing on the edge of my life

[Outro]
Standing on the edge of my life
Standing on the edge of my life (Of my life)
I am standing on the edge of my life
