Close To The Edge Johnny Hates Jazz

All my emotion have intertwined
Or could it be that I've lost my mind?
There is a feeling of hopelessness
Now that I've cracked up my life's a mess

The pressure's building up
This world has got too much
Can't take society
You are my enemy

I'm close to the edge
And I don't want to fall
I'm losing my head
My body and soul
I'm close to the edge
And I don't want to fall
I'm losing my head
My body and soul

I can't stop shaking, I'm so afraid
Caught in a gap between night and day
Living in silence behind closed doors
I'm not the man that I was before

This grip on sanity
Is slipping out of me
The fear of facing life
There is no end in sight

If I am still that strong
Enough to just hold on
I've got to stand and fight
In this eternal night
