I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could
Cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And
If you do not want to see me again
I would understaaa-yaaa-yaaand
I would understaaa-yaaa-yaaand
The angry boy, a been too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you don't belong
You're the first to fight, you're way too loud,
You're the first to lay on a burial shroud,
I know something's wrong,
When everyone I know has got a reason
To say:
Put the past away!
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could
Cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And
If you do not want to see me again
I would understaaa-yaaa-yaaand
I would understaaa-yaaa-yaaand
Well he's on the table, and he's gone to code.
And I do not think anyone knows
What the hell he's doing here.
And your friends all laugh till you've been dismissed.
I never thought it would come to this and I, I want you to know.
Everyone's got to face down the demons.
Maybe today, you can put the past away.
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could
Cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And
If you do not want to see me again
I would understaaa-yaaa-yaaand
I would understaaa-yaaa-yaaand
I would understaaa-haaaaaaand
(Wow!)
I would understand!
(Yayayayayaaaaa!)
You could put the past away!
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend (I would understand!)
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend (I would understand!)
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
(I would understaaa-yaaa-yaaand)
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
(I would understaaa-yaaa-yaaand)
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
(I would understaaa-haaaaaaand)
