A thousand eyes
And still no sight
The people I know, they won't let it show
As we dance on the edge
The people I know, they don't let it show
When we fall from the edge

Now there's a sword above my head
There's a monster in my bed now for the longest time
And I've been waiting in my room
I've been whistling a tune now that I can't describe
and I don't know why
So if you really wanna know
I don't think I'm gonna go and venture out
'Cause they keep on running through my head
Words I cannot find and no I can't deny
But I'm still far from the edge

These shadows cloud my good side
They leave no room for me
The people I know (people I know)
they won't let it show (won't let it show)
We dance on the edge

Now there's a sword above my head
There's a monster in my bed now for the longest time
And I've been waiting in my room
I've been whistling a tune now that I can't describe
and I don't know why
So if you really wanna know
I don't think I'm gonna go and venture out
'Cause they keep on running through my head
Words I cannot find and no I can't deny
But I'm still far from the edge
