about
"Edge Of The World"
You treat him like he’s human, you lick him and you dress him,
But you don’t love him no more.
You don’t want to devastate him, so you’re hanging around and waiting,
But you don’t want him no more.
CHORUS
So you walk away, and you walk away, and you walk away.
I can’t hear you say, I can’t hear you say, I can’t hear you say oh oh.
The crack in your teeth denying, mamma she’s only flying,
Says she wants not, but she wants more.
As pure as you might imagine, you die when her eyes are flashing.
It’s what your whole life was waiting for.
CHORUS
What you are today
I can’t hear you say.
You used to know all the songs he used to sing, all the days made you happy,
All the love you would bring.
Something’s changed, isn’t it you?
Who’s that other mouth you’re talking through?
Into my arms, still they wait.
Today you’re only thriving, the edge of the world surviving,
I don’t remember any names,
So tell me I didn’t waste it, at least I got to taste it.
Saw your bright light, then you changed.
CHORUS

So you walk away, and you walk away, and you walk away.
