What drove you to the edge

Tell me my friend what is it that drove you to the edge

confide in me my friend why is it you're on this ledge

Come down my friend and entrust me with your story

Tell it for the truth and not for the blackened glory

Share with me my friend why your tears fall like rain

Tell me my friend why your hearts under so much strain.


He helped me up this ladder , then pushed me to the ground

He charmed me with his lies, telling me this was the truest love he'd ever found

He led me to this room all dark smoke and filthy mirrors

Built up my heart but now it crumbles and it withers

I don't know how i could of fallen for such a trickster

My mind so bruised and broken don't know if i can ever fix her.


Why my friend are you climbing ever higher

Tell me my friend why would you die for such a liar

Steady my friend it is not your time to fall

We cannot run my friend until we've learnt to crawl

Speak to me my friend, share with me your burden.


He told me all these stories, how do i know which ones are true

Im sorry my friend i will speak, but i cannot come back down to you

This pain is to deep, it holds me by its side

My mind is racing my friend it cannot find a place to hide

His love may have been false, but mine to him was real

Im weighed down by this sadness, its all i'll ever feel

Forgive me but this is where my story must now end

Remember me as i was and good bye to you my friend
