I was just a skinny kid
In hand-me-downs
Denying what I hid
Smiling while I drowned
I was dreaming flowers
But living in flames
All but devoured
Til little remained
I was just a young girl
Fumbling through my days
Stumbling through this cold world
In a dangerous maze
I was dreaming romance
But living in fear
Taking any chance
To get away from here
On the edge of everything
Is where I sing
On the edge of everything
Is why I sing
After all this long time
Wondering what has changed
These streets of grit and grime
They look the same
I'm still dreaming flowers
That I now grow
I won't be devoured
Because of what I know
On the edge of everything
Is where I sing
On the edge of everything
Is why I sing
On the edge of everything
Is where I sing
On the edge of everything
