Lyrics
Find another songI'm on the edge
Staring into my abyss
No, don't let go
Don't succumb to its grips
Am I in too deep?
I've lost my way, colors fade
A hand reaching out
In dumb silence, afraid
But you know that
A friend in need is a friend indeed
Just let go of blind dignity
You can leave that all behind
In the wake of your will
It's for you to decide
I will always be grateful
To the angels that cushioned my fall
Leading me back to the flame
In the darkness that ignited it all
Why do I grieve
For a life that wasn't real?
The pain this failure brings
Is just part of that deal
My unfinished plan
Never really began
And so here I stand
In the stillness, a broken man
But you know that
A friend indeed will then concede
To relinquish barren hopes and dreams
Then head for the light, don't be afraid
A new day will dawn
And your peace will be made
I will always be grateful
To the angels that cushioned my fall
Leading me back to the flame
In the darkness that ignited it all
But be wary of disguise
Contented is not wise
The shadows may return
To take you
Remember all the pain
That stripped you of your name
And left you worthless in the darkness
Be wary of disguise
Contented is not wise
The shadows may return
To take you
Remember all the pain
That stripped you of your name
It's time to reveal myself
