Edge of the World

this song seems pretty straight forward.

basically its about a guy who is having a hard time quitting a girl and shes very deceptive. shes always lying to him and he knows it but its still hard to leave.

"I know your face, I know your smile and how it plays Into the minds of those who cling to every word you say"

"By now the lies you told are weighing on your chest If I provide the rope I know you'll do the rest"

in this line hes talking about how shes realizing that shes going to lose him and that he's wiseing up to her crap. the second line is the guy saying "i know ur lying and if i bait her i can catch her in her lie"

"My eyes are open for the first time " This is him waking up to her lies

"I am not a man who lives a life of soldiers I am not the kind of man who walks away" i think this is him still unsure about whether to leave or not. he doesnt live the life of a soldier (a soldier would stand up and fight) but he isnt the kind of man to walk away either

"My intentions were to never give myself to anyone, look what I've done" i dont necessarily think this line means he is going to stay with the girl but i just think its him realizing how emotionally drained he is and how much he has given to this girl.

thanks. :) been waiting ages for these lyrics.

"My finger pointing's just a warning so I suggest you say you're wrong."

Swear to God when I first heard this song I thought he was saying, "You're just so horny, yes, so horny."

understandable.

the basic message, i guess, is; "i made a huge mistake / you're a b*tch." :) i love the breakdown, damn it.

"You're like a splinter now I'll never show this hand to anyone, to anyone"

ahhh, i love this song!

this is my favorite song, the lyrics are magnificent

correction!

"you're like a splinter that'll never show it's head to anyone, to anyone"

and also, when he says "my intentions were to never give myself to anyone, look what i've done", it seems to me more like he's saying he gave it up for her because he loved her, but it's not Christian to have sex before marriage.

that's what i get from it, since i feel the same way. it kinda sounds really emotional near the end, especially with the sort of yelling...it always seems like he feels a lot of guilt about it. :/

Wow wow wow I like how people put up their interpretations of this song and many of the others, would any of you by any chance might know a song by them that they sing about how a girl just played a guy and doesnt feel any regret of it?, Yea i know sad right? but that would be pretty cool if someone could tell me.
