The Ledge Lyrics

I am tired, I am drained
I don't sleep for days
Immersed in the drama
Strapped to your stage

I don't wanna be just another lover on a ledge

I can't give you your life
I can't give you my sympathy
Off your knees, release me
I'm whole again
Whole again

I wanna fly, I wanna run
I wanna hide from you
Then I wanna crawl back and lie down
And hold on to you

I don't wanna be just another lover on a ledge
I don't wanna be just another lover on the edge

I can't give you my life
I can't give you the rest of me
Off your knees, release me
I'm whole again
Whole again

Whole again
Whole again

I can't give you your life
I can't give you my sympathy
Off your knees, release me
I'm whole again
Whole again
Whole again
Whole

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.
