Edge of Light - Smokey & the Mirror

I know your face I know your smile and how it plays Into the minds of those who cling to every word you say This isn't how I wanted to remember me and you Your eyes are talking but your lips are standing still Open your mouth tell me how I'm supposed to feel My finger pointing is just a warning so I suggest you Say you're wrong Let's get this over I would like to get some sleep tonight Let's get this over, I'd like to get some sleep tonight You make it hard for me to leave So very hard for me to leave By now the lies you told are weighing on your chest If I provide the rope I know you'll do the rest But I will not be an accessory no I'm not who you think And I will never be your enemy so don't insult me Say you're wrong This could be easier if I was over her Say you're wrong I know she's just a girl But she's got me standing on the edge I'm on the edge of the world My eyes are open for the first time This place not yours it's in my own eyes I am not a man who lives a life of soldiers I am not the kind of man who walks away I will stand up face to face or toe to toe with anyone Yes anyone Everything you said about me was the truth but I just don't think that I can look at you the same You're like a splinter that will never show its head to anyone To anyone Now I know that I was not the man you wanted You know I loved you and I wanted to make you proud My intentions were to never give myself to anyone Look what I've done

Free from the torment of sin All this I'm giving up Much as the sun would decide to give in Explode into orange And hear all the voices sing praises with hymns Mark the birth of a change Free from the torment of sin All this I'm giving up It's not me Buried wreckage, my soul It's not me So who am I now? Over and over again A light with a sharpened edge Cuts through the black empty space we call sky Beginning the cycle that stays And I know in my heart we all die Like the day and the night Like the sun in the sky All this I'm giving up It's not me Buried wreckage, my soul It's not me So who am I now? It's not me Buried wreckage, my soul It's not me So who am I now? Is there another side Beyond the black and white? A place I could meet you by A place on the other side I'll let you know when I go I'll let you know when I go When I'm gone It's not me Buried wreckage, my soul It's not me So who am I now? It's not me Buried wreckage, my soul It's not me So who am I now? It's not me (is there another side) Buried wreckage, my soul (beyond the black and white?) It's not me So who am I now? Um, let's just go back to the beginning

I been known to fight the good fight I been known to walk alone I been known to stay out all night Drinkin' wine and gettin' stoned I feel like you're not ever gonna let me love you I feel like I'm gonna be left here on my own I feel like I'm not ever gonna rise above you I feel like we will always walk alone I was born into the good life I have owned a wretched soul I was thrown into the dark night Where I roamed with no control I feel like you're not ever gonna let me love you I feel like I'm gonna have to face this on my own I feel like I'm not ever gonna rise above you I feel like we will always walk alone I feel like you're not ever gonna let me love you I feel like I'm gonna be left here on my own I feel like I'm not ever gonna rise above you I feel like we will always walk alone
