On the Edge - Distant Past

Light, Dark, I am both

I’m everything, I am nothing

Dusk, Dawn, all a blur

I am daylight, I am the night

I’m in your head and won’t let go

I’m your intent and you don’t know

I’m the shadow behind your back

The irritation to keep you off track

You yearn for my approval, my forgiveness

You look for my glance but stare in darkness

You think you know me

But you don’t know yourself

I am the light, but you won’t see

I am the dark that you always feel

It’s the night, which you will fear

Turn around and no one’s here

You’re on the edge

On the edge

Inside the cage

(You're) on the edge

Black, White, Shades of gray

I' m colorful, invisible

High, Low, in-between

I' m everywhere, I am nowhere

I’m the place, where you can’t hide

I’m the thorn, stuck in your side

I’m the piper beyond the gate

I’m the gambler who controls your fate

Your ambition is to please me, I’m your hunger

You’re tight in my grasp, you’re here to linger

You are lost and you are scared

Just a puppet who thinks he’s alive

I am dusk, but you see black

I am dawn, you can’t turn back

Feel the blood, running down your neck

Now enter the realm of the dead

You’re on the edge

On the edge

Inside the cage

(You're) on the edge
