On the Edge
On the Edge of Desperation: Unraveling the Inner Struggle
Lyrics
Standing here looking down on a life
Contemplating life from a higher vantage point.
Looking down on a life
Reiteration of observing life from above.
A life that’s passing so quickly
Expressing the swift passage of time in one's life.
My eyes see trouble
Perceiving trouble or challenges.
My blood starts to bubble
Feeling a sense of agitation or intensity.
But heart can’t get a grasp
Struggling to comprehend or control emotions.
On the sanity hidden inside
Awareness of hidden sanity or stability within.
I’m On the Edge
Repetitive expression of being on the edge and slipping away, conveying a sense of vulnerability and loss of control.
I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I can’t help it
-I’m slipping away
-I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I can’t help it
-I’m slipping away
-Off on my own
Isolation and solitude.
There’s no one around
Lack of companionship.
My heart pounds heavy
Intense heartbeat, possibly indicating anxiety.
Steady like the beat of a drum
Steady and rhythmic like a drumbeat, emphasizing a focused mindset.
My feet edge closer
Physical closeness to the edge, symbolizing a perilous situation.
Closer ever closer
-Grasping for the edge
-Swallow me up inside
-I’m On the Edge
Reiteration of being on the edge and slipping away, emphasizing the ongoing struggle and inevitability of drifting.
I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I can’t help it
-I’m slipping away
-I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I can’t help it
-I’m slipping away
-Why can’t I hear your voice
Questions expressing a desire for connection and understanding the absence of emotional response or reciprocation.
Why can’t I see your face
-Why can’t I feel you pulling me back to your place
-Why can’t I feel your heart
-Why won’t it ever start
-Why is it every time I touch you
-Slip away
-In the fading light
Metaphorical journey through darkness, seeking direction and warmth but facing challenges in reaching it.
I reach for some right
-Moving through the darkness
-Trying to find my way
-It’s cold outside
-Unlike the fire inside
-But I can’t get in
-No matter how I try
-I’m On the Edge
Continuation of the theme, accentuating the feeling of being on the edge and slipping away.
I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I can’t help it
-I’m slipping away
-I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I’m On the Edge
-I can’t help it
-I’m slipping away
