Lyrics

I'm not about to let this pass
'Cause you and me are in the final act
I've got this rope around my neck
It's pulling me down across your chest

I can lie with the best of 'em
Make you believe what I've said
But you're pushing me ever closer
Ever closer and over the edge

I've been thinking 'bout our life
It's bound and broken; we never get it right
Maybe we should turn around and try again
We'll tear this building down

I can stand with the best of 'em
But, baby, you've got me seeing red
And you're pushing me ever closer
Ever closer and over the edge

And this ain't wrong, but this ain't right
But we don't have the strength to hold this ship together anymore
And we can argue here all night
But that won't get us nowhere
That won't get us nowhere

So now the time is fading fast
Take my word, 'cause, baby, it's my last
The fire's coming from below
And, Lord, I know we've gotta let it go

I can stand with the best of 'em
But, baby, you've got me seeing red
And you're pushing me ever closer
Ever closer and over the edge

Over the edge
