The Edge
Dahl Hates Disco Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Darling lately I can't breath
Baby maybe I'm in too deep
Tell me maybe I can't see
Do I need someone to save myself from me

Because You Turn Me On
And I'm Tripping Out
You Turn me....

I've Been Falling, Been falling for you
I'm on the edge
And It's true, I'm falling for you...been falling for you

We both know how talk is cheap
I can show you all the words I keep
we can slow it down if you need, yea
but I want you to just run with me

Because You Turn Me On
And I'm Tripping Out
You Turn me....

I've Been Falling, Been falling for you
I'm on the edge
And It's true, I'm falling for you...been falling for you

On the edge, On the edge
On the edge, On the edge
I'm on the edge and I'm ready

I've been falling, been falling for you
I'm on the edge
And It's true, I'm falling for you...been falling for you

On the edge, On the edge




On the edge, On the edge...
I'm on the edge and I'm ready

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Dahl Hates Disco's song "The Edge" seem to convey the feeling of being on the brink of falling in love with someone. The singer admits feeling out of control and vulnerable, and questions whether they need someone to save them from themselves. The lyrics also hint at the possibility that the other person holds the power to turn the singer on and make them lose their balance. The chorus repeats the line "I've been falling, been falling for you, I'm on the edge and it's true", emphasizing the overwhelming feelings of falling in love and the potential risk of falling too hard.


The lyrics also touch on the idea that talk is cheap and actions speak louder than words. While acknowledging the importance of communicating feelings, the singer seems to suggest that it's more important to simply go with the flow and allow oneself to be vulnerable with the other person. The repetition of the phrase "on the edge" in the chorus further emphasizes the idea that the singer is taking a risk by allowing themselves to fall for someone.


Overall, "The Edge" conveys the mixed emotions of falling in love - the excitement and thrill of newfound feelings, as well as the vulnerability and risk that come with opening oneself up to another person.
