The Edge
Eternal Idol Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You take my breath
I followed you I know your name
Inside my chest
A desire that I can't resist

And you steal my mind
I run to you through the flames
I'd like to grab you
I'd like to sink my claws on you


Love is fight
it's sweet as sin
I'll fight it


Love is fight
walking on the edge
it's hard to hold on
Love is fight
can I hold you one more time?
it's tearing me inside


Just take me up
Can you feel me getting out of this dream?
Can you call my name?
Please bring me to the end

And you drive me crazy
Now you brought me here on the edge
And I'm on fire
I lose my mind I can't resist


Love is fight
walking on the edge
it's hard to hold on
Love is fight
can I hold you one more time?
it's tearing me inside


Let me in
I can find the way
Oh come on and
Give to me
I can rid your signs
Oh Do you save me?

A heaven insane
Inside my head


Love is fight
walking on the edge
it's hard to hold on
Love is fight




can I hold you one more time?
it's tearing me inside
