The Edge of Tonight Lyrics
It's a long way home
When you're on your own
And your only friends are traffic lights
Speaking in Morse code
Yeah, the road is long and I am tired
But with you on my horizon
I will drive until it all breaks down
'Cause I can't breathe without you near
You keep me safe, keep me sane, keep me honest
You keep me alive on the edge of tonight
Chasing tomorrow with fire in my eyes, yeah
You're like a sunray in the dark
You're the beat playing in my heart
You keep me alive on the edge of tonight, yeah
Spent my whole damn life
(Whole damn life)
Trying to get things right
(To get things right)
And for everyone, my mistakes
You gave me all these chances
When the road's too long
(Road's too long)
And I am tired
(And I am tired)
Baby, you are my horizon
And I'll drive until it all breaks down
You keep me alive on the edge of tonight
Chasing tomorrow with fire in my eyes, yeah
You're like a sunray in the dark
You're the beat playing in my heart
You keep me alive on the edge of tonight, yeah
You keep me safe, you keep me sane, you keep me honest
Honest, honest
You keep me safe, you keep me sane, you keep me honest
You keep me alive
(You keep me alive)
On the edge of tonight
(On the edge of tonight)
Chasing tomorrow
(Chasing tomorrow)
With fire in my eyes, yeah
You're like a sunray in the dark
You're the beat playing in my heart
You keep me alive on the edge of tonight, yeah
We're on the edge of tonight
The edge of tonight
You keep me safe, you keep me sane, you keep me honest
Honest, honest
(Standing on the edge of tonight)
The edge of tonight
The edge of tonight
When you're on your own
And your only friends are traffic lights
Speaking in Morse code
Yeah, the road is long and I am tired
But with you on my horizon
I will drive until it all breaks down
You keep me safe, keep me sane, keep me honest
Chasing tomorrow with fire in my eyes, yeah
You're like a sunray in the dark
You're the beat playing in my heart
You keep me alive on the edge of tonight, yeah
(Whole damn life)
Trying to get things right
(To get things right)
And for everyone, my mistakes
You gave me all these chances
(Road's too long)
And I am tired
(And I am tired)
Baby, you are my horizon
And I'll drive until it all breaks down
Chasing tomorrow with fire in my eyes, yeah
You're like a sunray in the dark
You're the beat playing in my heart
You keep me alive on the edge of tonight, yeah
Honest, honest
You keep me safe, you keep me sane, you keep me honest
(You keep me alive)
On the edge of tonight
(On the edge of tonight)
Chasing tomorrow
(Chasing tomorrow)
With fire in my eyes, yeah
You're like a sunray in the dark
You're the beat playing in my heart
You keep me alive on the edge of tonight, yeah
We're on the edge of tonight
The edge of tonight
Honest, honest
(Standing on the edge of tonight)
The edge of tonight
The edge of tonight

I think that is song is about depression or any other mental disorder. I know that the only reason that I haven't killed myself is because of a special someone, and I think this is just like that.
'Cause I can't breathe without you near, You keep me safe, Keep me sane, Keep me honest,
those lyrics are showing that you're hanging on a thread, but there's someone making you hold on and not let go.
Spent my whole damn life, Trying to get things right, And for every one of my mistakes, You gave me all these chances, When the roads too long, I am tired, Baby you are my horizon, And I'll drive until it all breaks down,
these lyrics are saying that you've made some mistakes in the past, but they are going to look past it and help you move on from it......
that's just what I think..... Also I want to idea that most suicidal thoughts happen mostly at night.... Edge of tonight (I think im the only who think like that but oh well)
