On The Edge Lyrics

I been hanging my life from a frayed tight wire
I been walkin' thin ice with my heels on fire
Keep racing my heart so the beat won't miss me
Still wanting a night when the stars will kiss me

I got too much time
I don't know who's alive
Never satisfied
Livin' on the edge
The edge of time
waiting for a perfect crime
Livin' on the edge

Everyone I see's got the cool cold shoulder
Just hangin' around gettin' slow and older
Like a little girl suckin' chemical cola
strung out on lies that the T.V. sold her

I got too much time
I don't know who's alive
Livin' on the edge
Edge of time

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
