The Rods - Life On The Edge lyrics

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
