I had eyes but i could not see, i hurt everybody who believed in me
i had it all but i lost the key, oh
i saw the world through fogged-up glasses, like some lothario making passes
i showed the world just what an ass is, oh
I was over the edge, i was always out of my head
trouble in paradise, treadin' on the thinnest ice
oh-oh, over the edge, i wouldn't listen to what anybody said
cuttin' with a razor blade, spendin' every cent i made
over the edge
I dreamed of standin' on my own two feet
my fists held high and i clenched my teeth
but i'd wake up to the same old me, oh
i was living a lie, but you brought me truth
afraid to cry, but you taught me to
you stood beside me, now i'll stand by you, oh
I was over the edge, i was always out of my head
i wasn't foolin' anyone, playin' with a loaded gun
oh-oh, over the edge, i wouldn't listen to what anybody said
i was numbing all the pain, you taught me how to feel again
(solo)
If i had died, it would have been a shame
they'd have said "he only had himself to blame"
you saved my life when you called my name, oh
I was over the edge, i was always out of my head
i was numbing all the pain, you showed me how to feel again
oh-oh, over the edge, i wouldn't listen to what anybody said
when you looked me in the eyes, you finally made me recognize
Oh-oh, over the edge (repeats 4x)
