Lyrics

CLOSE TO THE EDGE Key: A Running time:


YOU CAUGHT ME LOOKING AT THE DYING EMBERS, OF A DREAM THAT USED TO BURN
I HOPE SOMEBODY WILL REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS WE FORGOT TO LEARN
I WAS GATHERING THE MISSING PAGES BLOWN AWAY IN THAT FREAK STORM
WE HAVE TO PAY THE DEVIL?S WAGES FROM THE DAY THAT WE ARE BORN

AND I DON?T FEEL THE BEST IS YET TO COME
CLOSE TO THE EDGE OF THE WORST WE COULD BECOME

WE?VE BEEN FOLLOWING OUR OWN REDEMPTION WITH A CHAIN AROUND OUR NECK
WE?VE BEEN HEADING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION WASHED UP LIKE A SHIPWRECK
WHEN YOU LISTEN TO THE TROJAN SPEECHES THEY WILL SHAKE YOU TO THE CORE
TEAR THEM UP UNTIL YOU FIND THE PIECES OF TRUTH LEFT ON THE FLOOR

AND I DON?T FEEL THE BEST IS YET TO COME
CLOSE TO THE EDGE OF THE WORST WE COULD BECOME

SO HOLD ME, HOLD ME, I AM ABOUT TO FALL
CLOSE TO THE EDGE OF LOSING IT ALL

TAKE A TRIP INTO FORBIDDEN PLACES, YOUR HEART CAN LEAD THE WAY
YOU MAY FALL UPON SOME STONEY FACES, THE PRICE YOU?LL HAVE TO PAY
SOMEONE IS DYING JUST TO SET YOU FREE, ITS ALL BEEN SAID BEFORE
IT DOSEN?T MATTER IF YOU HAVE THE KEY WHEN YOU CANNOT FIND THE DOOR

AND I DON?T FEEL THE BEST IS YET TO COME
CLOSE TO THE EDGE OF THE WORST WE COULD BECOME

SO HOLD ME, HOLD ME, I AM ABOUT TO FALL
CLOSE TO THE EDGE OF LOSING IT ALL
I SAID HOLD ME, HOLD ME, I AM ABOUT TO FALL
CLOSE TO THE EDGE OF LOSING IT ALL

CLOSE TO THE EDGE, CLOSE TO THE EDGE
CLOSE TO THE EDGE, CLOSE TO THE EDGE

SOLO

CLOSE TO THE EDGE, CLOSE TO THE EDGE
(REPEAT TO FADE)
