Over the Edge Lyrics

[Intro]
Torn open
My heart is on display

[Verse 1]
I wrote my blood upon the page
Sealed with the sweat of my brow
Hands cling to these aspirations
No place for apathy
Behold I'll make this sacrifice
Trading it all for a spot in the light
Blood in these trenches, trickling
Grease the wheels of this machine

[Chorus]
Over the edge
You give but they take, they take it all away
And keep on pushing until you're over the edge

[Verse 2]
I tried to swim with the current
Now I'm drowning with an anchor tied around my feet
Another price to pay
A compromise you have to make
But as you give yourself away
You become everything you hate

[Chorus]
Over the edge
You give but they take, they take it all away
And keep on pushing until you're over the edge
The sacrifice is not in vain
I have to find the strength to take control or face defeat
I won't go back now
I won't go over the edge

[Bridge]
The gears still turn, devouring
So fall in line or turn away
The bridge will burn, decide your fate
You'll be a pawn or be replaced

[Chorus]
Over the edge
You give but they take, they take it all away
And keep on pushing until you're over the edge
The sacrifice is not in vain
I have to find the strength to take control or face defeat
I won't go back now

[Outro]
No longer bound and chained to the machine
I won't let this passion turn to poison
I won't lose myself to this machine
