Edge of the World
Standing at the Abyss: Embracing Change and Redemption
Lyrics
Stand at the edge of the world and let it go
Contemplate the edge of existence and release it.
The colours we've shown
The vibrant aspects of our lives.
Run and they fade away
Efforts and experiences fade away.
The masks we wear
The disguises we wear.
They barely hide our fangs
Our true nature is barely concealed.
Try to pretend
Pretending not to shatter again.
We won't break again
Attempting not to break under pressure.
Reach out, but no one will take these hands
Seeking connection, but finding none.
Like sand through an hourglass
Time slipping away like sand.
We slip away
We gradually lose our grip on reality.
Stand at the edge of the world and let it go
Reiteration of contemplating the edge and letting go.
Armour plated I ain't waiting for a miracle
Being resilient, not waiting for miracles.
Sometimes it's almost too much
The challenges can be overwhelming.
Sifting through what's left of us
Sorting through the remnants of what was.
Stand at the edge
Standing at the precipice.
The wars we've waged
Internal conflicts, self-inflicted wars.
Only ourselves to blame
Our actions bring consequences.
Lies are told
Deception hiding behind faith.
Hiding the truth behind a faith
Truth obscured by lies.
A struggle within
An internal struggle persists.
Still fighting to win
Fighting to overcome challenges.
It's time to stand up 'cause this is the end
A call to stand up as the end approaches.
Before we can start to mend
Prior to healing, acknowledging the need for change.
Can we change?
Questioning the possibility of transformation.
Stand at the edge of the world and let it go
Repeating the theme of facing the edge and letting go.
Armour plated I ain't waiting for a miracle
Resolute, not expecting miracles.
Sometimes it's almost too much
The burden of life can be almost unbearable.
Sifting through ashes and dust
Searching through the aftermath.
Stand at the edge of the world and let it go
Re-emphasizing standing at the edge and release.
Rise up it's time to be invincible
A call to rise and be unstoppable.
Sometimes it's almost too much
The weight of existence can be almost too much.
Sifting through what's left of us
Examining what remains of our essence.
Stand at the edge
Reiteration of being at the edge.
Feed all my insecurities
Confronting and nourishing personal doubts.
Poking the beast until it bleeds
Provoking inner turmoil until it surfaces.
We have become the disease
We have become a destructive force.
We stand at the edge
Standing at the edge symbolizing a critical juncture.
Edge of the world
Repeated emphasis on the edge of the world.
We stand at the edge
-Edge of the world
-The edge of the world
-The edge of the world
-Stand at the edge
Further repetition of standing at the edge.
Stand at the edge
-Stand at the edge
-Stand at the edge of the world and let it go
Revisiting the theme of releasing at the edge.
Armour plated I ain't waiting for a miracle
Maintaining resilience without waiting for miracles.
Sometimes it's almost too much
The struggles can be almost overwhelming.
Sifting through ashes and dust
Navigating through the aftermath of destruction.
Stand at the edge of the world and let it go
Repeating the call to stand at the edge and let go.
Rise up it's time to be invincible
A renewed call to rise and be indomitable.
Sometimes it's almost too much
The challenges are nearly insurmountable.
Sifting through what's left of us
Sorting through the remnants of our existence.
Stand at the edge
Final reaffirmation of standing at the edge.
