The Edge
Lexy & K. Paul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm going over the edge
I guess I don't know any better
I'm sick but I don't need meds
I'm falling into a deep pit
My life has lost all meaning
Back and forth with all these demons
Screaming, getting extremely exhausting
Swallow it up and eat it
Fine all alone, just leave me
It's daunting, all of my memories haunting
I just can't be rid of all this pain inside me
Cause it always finds me, chews me up and spits me out it's traumatizing
I've been cauterizing the wound on my heart, dead on arrival
Dreadful when you not beside me, feels like I've been dying
Everything is so damn hopeless
You gripped my heart and ripped it open
But my spirit won't be broken
Cause that just isn't who I am
No one's here I'm still all alone and
I'm growing tired of feeling lonely
But my spirit won't be broken
Cause that just isn't who I am (anymore)
The darkness is pulling me in
I'm going over the edge
I guess I don't know any better
I'm sick but I don't need meds
Been lied to, replaced, and cheated
Success is the best revenge, get even
I wish you told me why you're leaving'
Grieving, my whole world came toppling
You slashed my heart then left me bleeding'
And laughed at all the blood just leaking
Surprised my fucking heart is beating
I'm breathing, but feeling empty I'm rotting
Everything is so damn hopeless
You gripped my heart and ripped it open
But my spirit won't be broken
Cause that just isn't who I am
No one's here I'm still all alone and
I'm growing tired of feeling lonely
But my spirit won't be broken
Cause that just isn't who I am (anymore)
The darkness is pulling me in
I'm going over the edge
I guess I don't know any better
I'm sick but I don't need meds
