River Flows On The Edge
The Dark Tenor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To let all your fears pass by
Your no man's land
Has turned to what you stand for
Welcome to your new life
In eternal sunlight
Spread your wings to new heights
On the edge
On the edge
Lost days have gone
With all your pain left inside
Your daydreams have
Turned to what you stand for
Welcome to your new life
In eternal sunlight
Spread your wings to new heights
Only you will decide what is next to become
On the edge
Only you will decide what is next to become
On the edge
Welcome to your new life
Welcome to your new life
In eternal sunlight
Spread your wings to new heights
Only you will decide what is next to become
On the edge
The lyrics of "River Flows On The Edge" by The Dark Tenor refer to a turning point in someone's life. The beginning of the song acknowledges that it is time to let go of all fears and that the person's "no man's land" has transformed into something they now fully believe in. The chorus talks about a new beginning that is waiting for the person, in which they are free to spread their wings and reach new heights. The lyrics reinforce that the decision of what direction to take in this new phase of life rests solely on the individual.
The second verse acknowledges the hardships that the person has faced, and how they have left all of the pain behind. The daydreams that at one point held them hostage to what could have been, are now guiding them towards what they stand for. The chorus repeats the idea that it is only up to the person to decide what they want to become, and then once more welcoming them to their new life.
Overall, the song is about leaving behind what no longer serves us, and embracing a new life with open arms. It speaks to the power we all have to decide our fate, and reminds us that even on the edge of something new and unknown, the river will still flow, guiding us along the way.

Jedes Ende bedeutet auch einen Anfang - so wie stets auf jeder Nacht eine neuer Tag folgt... Mit diesem Song begann mein neues Leben...daher wird er für mich immer eine besondere Bedeutung haben! Nicht nur im übertragenen Sinn, sondern auch im realen Leben holte mich vor fast 5 Jahren diese warme und gefühlvolle sowie Mut spendende Stimme aus meinem unruhigen Schlaf und ließ mich aufhorchen - die Zeit des Erwachsens begann... Es steckt so viel Wahrheit, Klarheit, Hoffnung und Zuversicht in diesen Lyrics und Beruhigendes in der Melodie, so dass er mir auch heute noch dabei hilft, ausweglos scheinende Momente zu überstehen, in dem ich mich auf mich und meine innere Kraft besinne und bewusst für das Licht im Leben entscheide. Denn eine Nacht kann einem noch so finster erscheinen, als dass der erste Sonnenstrahl am Morgen sie nicht zu erhellen vermag... Gebe jedem neuen Tag die Chance der schönste in deinem Leben zu werden!

Wurde bei der Trauerfeier für unseren Bruder (41) eingespielt , der Text passte leider 1 zu 1 . Der letzte Weg für ihn und Mama sind wir am 17.6. gegangen. Seither höre ich es immer wieder ❤️

Ich liebe dieses Lied.😍 Es inspiriert mich in so vielen Dingen. Meine Mitschüler halten mich zwar für einen Freak, weil ich mir "so eine Scheisse" anhöre, ich, persönlich, jedoch finde es beruhigend und zum Abschallten perfekt. :)
