david yazbek - on the verge lyrics

Loading...

[lucía]
welcome to the edge
the verge, the ledge
the bridge is out
you’re looking in the mirror, baby

this is where it rips
a tear, a tear
a fear that what’s been coming
isn’t coming ’cause it’s here now

[candela]
seven miles up
you walk the wire
it’s no mean feat in those high heels
hard to do the dance when circ-mstance
has brought you to the edge

[pepa]
so this is how it ends
you feel the wall
you reel, you fall
at least you’ve got your friends around you

similarly lacking half their wits
you’re on the hill and
throwing fits and going down together

[pepa & candela]
listen to you shout
“the brakes are out!”
the car’s okay
but where’s the wheels?

[pepa, candela & marisa]
isn’t this a trip?
you’ve lost your grip
you’re coming to the edge

[paulina]
a bruised and bleeding sky above your head
a purple ocean boils below
the red horizon tied around your throat

[all]
you’ve lost your voice
you’ve lost your will
you’ll lose your mind

[lucía]
admit it’s kind of thrilling as you

[all]
step up to the line
events converge
the edge, the urge
and suddenly you’re swimming in it

swimming in the surge and
you’re sinking, you’re sunk
it’s murder on a hairdo
when your head is underwater

not that you should mind
you see, you’ll find
you don’t need a rudder
when your ship’s gone down

this is how it flips
your wig, your life
the edge
you’re slipping on it

[lucía]
i admit it’s kind of thrilling as you

[all]
teeter on the brink and
you’re thinking you’re drunk and
a thought, or a word
could break the thread
you’re hanging by so

keep it to yourself
shut up. or not
let go. hang on
and pretty soon you’re ululating

like a banshee
can she cope?
she’s out of rope but her
lipstick’s straight

baby, it’s a date, we can’t be late
we’re dancing
we’re dancing
we’re dancing
we’re dancing

welcome to the verge
to the cusp, to the edge
to the end of the line
to the start of something really scary

welcome to the verge
to the cusp, to the edge
to the end of the line
to the start of something really scary

welcome to the verge
to the cusp, to the edge
to the end of the line
to the start of something really scary

welcome to the verge
to the cusp, to the edge
to the end of the line
to the start of something really scary

[doctor, spoken]
pepa, please. you shouldn’t be upsetting yourself in your condition.

[pepa, spoken]
what condition?

[doctor, spoken]
you’re pregnant.
