The Edge Of Darkness
Rage Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This will be a rude awakening if we don't stop now
Everywhere we see the atomic threat will be
Handled by the bad, the deceivers that gone mad
Lead us into death
To hell and back, we're
Never return
On the edge of darkness
When the nuclear dictators ride the bomb
Hell is here to stay forever, do you want it so
Instability killing the economy
Continents in war throwing horror on the poor
Mother nature dies
To hell and back, we're
On the edge of darkness
Never return
On the edge of darkness
On the edge of darkness
When will we learn
On the edge of darkness
Pull your head out of the sand, you need to know
Your ass, it will burn red hot, right when it all explodes
Everywhere it seems all those people lost their dreams
Everyone's insane, all the warning was in vain
Blinded 'till we're dead
To hell and back, we're
On the edge of darkness
Never return
On the edge of darkness
On the edge of darkness
When will we learn
On the edge of darkness
When will we learn, will we ever learn

It also criticizes the economic instability and the wars that countries engage in, causing horror and suffering for the less fortunate.
