My heart is pounding
Can't stand the look but my eyes open wide
This look on my face and my sweat
Spell out the joy and fear, the thrill I feel inside
The headlight is searching
I've found the groove, now I've hit my stride
Don't know why seems I've got no choice
I've got to push if farther every time I ride
The fear I love to suffer
It's more than I can stand
Why don't I give a damn?
Am I insane
Or is this a game
That only ends in pain?
Life on the edge
Life on the edge
Life on the edge
I'm living on the edge
My hands won't stop shaking
My nerves are jumping, I'm too wired to stand
I feel the tension, I try to be cool
But I can't stop it now, why don't they understand?
I thought I could take it
I made a choice and I knew the score
Who would've guessed that the odds wouldn't win?
But if I had the chance again I'd do it just like before
The glory road is one way
But it's the path I choose
I know I'm born to lose
When will I find
A feeling inside
That gives me peace of mind?
The path I'm on looks hopeless
My friends say I'm insane
How can they know my pain?
What is this game
That brings me such pain?
Now I can see
What it's done to me
I wish I could be free
Life on the edge
Life on the edge
Life on the edge
I'm living on the edge
