Livin' On The Edge Lyrics

Cover art for Livin' On The Edge lyrics by Aerosmith

I read somewhere this song was written right after the LA riots. To me the song is saying that there is a lot wrong with the world but we should still keep hanging on. "There's something right with the world today And everybody knows it's wrong Well we could tell them no Or we could let it go But I would rather be a' hanging on."
