Always On The Edge
Navigating the Precipice of Emotions: Always On The Edge by Darling Congress
Lyrics
Hey, pick up the phone
Initiating a call and urging the person to answer.
It's just me calling, and I know you're home
Acknowledging the person is at home and expressing awareness.
Hey, don't leave me hanging
Requesting not to be ignored or left hanging.
I just called to say hello, and to see where we're standing
Explaining the call is to greet and assess the relationship status.
Everything is fine, and I wanted you to know
Assuring that everything is fine and sharing personal stability.
That I've got my shit together
Claiming to have one's life in order and ready for the other person to leave.
And now you can go, you can go
Granting permission for the other person to depart.
Why am I always on the edge of something?
Expressing a recurring feeling of being on the brink of something significant.
Why am I always on the edge?
Repeating the sense of being consistently on the edge.
Hey, come to the door
Inviting the person to the door and indicating a vulnerable state (on the floor).
It's just me knocking, and I'm on the floor
Clarifying the knocking and physical state.
Hey, don't leave me begging
Pleading not to be abandoned while having important things to share.
I've got a thing or two to say that I've been saving
Hinting at having saved thoughts to express.
Everything is fine, and I wanted you to know
Reiterating that everything is fine and asserting personal stability.
That I've got my shit together
Stating readiness for the other person to leave.
And now you can go, you can go
Granting permission for the other person to go.
Why am I always on the edge of something?
Repeating the sentiment of consistently being on the edge of something.
Why am I always on the edge?
Reiterating the perpetual feeling of being on the edge.
We're always on the edge
Emphasizing the recurring theme of being on the edge.
Hey, I need a friend
Expressing a need for a friend and emotional support.
Someone to hold me at the end
Desiring physical comfort and solace from a friend.
Hey, I need a friend
Repeating the need for a friend and emotional support.
Someone to hold me at the end
Reiterating the desire for physical comfort from a friend.
Why am I always on the edge of something?
Repeating the questioning of being on the edge of something.
Why am I always on the edge?
Reiterating the recurring sense of consistently being on the edge.
Why am I always on the edge of nothing?
Adding a twist by questioning being on the edge of nothing.
Why am I always on the edge
Repeating the inquiry into the perpetual feeling of being on the edge.
We're always on the edge
Emphasizing the ongoing theme of consistently being on the edge.
We're always on the edge
Reiterating the persistent nature of always being on the edge.
