Sometimes you feel like you're the only one
You just can't make it - your time has come
You're going down and there's no way out
You stand alone while other people scream and shout
Your head is spinning and your mouth is dry
Hands keep on shaking but you don't know why
Heart beating faster - you can't take no more
You want to reach out for the bottle and just pour
Feel like you're out there on a ledge
When you're all living on the edge
Some people say that when you're going down you're out
But they don't seem to really know what it's all about
It's not that other people really just don't care
But everybody has a cross they have to bear
Feel like you're out there on a ledge
When you are living on the edge
Sometimes you feel like you're the only one
You just can't make it - your time has come
You're going down and there's no way out
You stand alone while other people scream and shout
Feel like you're out there on a ledge
When you're all living on the edge
