The Edge Is Gone

Verse

There’s a hum in the walls, it never fades,

Another scream in the dark parade.

Charleston nights and a river so cold,

Reflections whisper the lies I’ve been told.

Little blue promise in the palm of my hand,

Said I’d feel better, said I’d understand.

Now the silence cuts deeper than sound,

Every high just drags me down.

Pre-chorus

I’m chasing echoes in the static air,

Trying to find a heartbeat there.

Chorus

The edge is gone, but so am I,

Falling through the space between the highs.

I built my wings out of smoke and shame,

Now I’m learning how to feel again.

The edge is gone—

And maybe that’s the start of who I am.

Verse

Friends fade fast in a house of ghosts,

We love what kills us the most.

Every secret’s a stone in my chest,

Every truth I’ve tried to forget.

The mirror’s a stranger with my eyes,

A thousand versions I’ve disguised.

But I’m done running from the storm,

I want to feel the hurt, be reborn.

Pre-chorus

The river calls me by my name,

But I won’t drown again the same.

Chorus

The edge is gone, but so am I,

Falling through the space between the highs.

I built my wings out of smoke and shame,

Now I’m learning how to feel again.

The edge is gone—

And maybe that’s the start of who I am.

Bridge

Every tear’s a thread of gold,

Sewing back the parts I sold.

In the dark I found the proof,

Silence can be something true.

Chorus

The edge is gone, and I can breathe,

No more ghosts inside of me.

I burned the pain, I faced the flame,

And rose up whispering my name.

The edge is gone—

But now, I finally see who I am.
