Close To The Edge - Mark Owen

I was into

Like a sudden fix from a bowl of sugar

To you

And all that you were standing for

Yeah, you knew

I was so caught up that I could barely move

To stop you

From having everything and more

Do you pick me up

To put me under

Break me in

So you can choose your ways to put me back again

You can leave a hole like a nail in my head

You can leave me turned into nothing instead

You can leave me close to the edge

You won’t ever hear me hit the ground

Are you into

Have you given up, have we gone to far

Do you wander

Or are you staying where we are

I abhor you

Yet all the while still I adore knowing you

And all that might have been before

Do I say too much to take you over

Break me in

So I can choose my ways to put me back again

You can leave a hole like a nail in my head

You can leave me turned into nothing instead

You can leave me close to the edge

You won’t ever hear me hit the ground

Cause I’m floored but not broken

And I’m scarred but I’ll heal

Yeah I’m blissfully tortured, naked and real

And I’m stung and I’m sorry

But I’m calm now and clear

Like the sky hanging over

Like the scratch on my shoulder

That I no longer feel, feel

I was into, too close to the edge, too close to the edge

You can leave a hole like a nail in my head

You can leave me turned into nothing instead

You can leave me close to the edge

You won’t ever hear me hit the ground
