The sweat dripping off of my lips
The blood dripping off of my brow
I could really use a power trip
I could really use an angel right now
There's a violence I never thought real
Between the crack in my palms
And there's a silence you really can feel
There's a dream I wanna wake up from
Hey, hey mama, would you look at me?
I'm sitting on the edge of the world
I've got a strong, strong urge to fly now
But I'm screaming like a little girl
Hey, hey mama would you look at me?
In the center of the universe
It's so pretty out here but there's no way down
I'm fading and it's starting to hurt
I'm fading and it's starting to hurt
It's so tough when you feel it give in
You can't stand on the hallowed ground
It starts showing like a murder grin
You try screaming but it don't come out
Start counting down the breath in my lungs
I take a big one, two in deep
I try looking for the starting gun
And I find it pointing right at me
Hey, hey mama, would you look at me?
I'm sitting on the edge of the world
I've got a strong, strong urge to fly now
But I'm screaming like a little girl
Hey, hey mama would you look at me?
In the center of the universe
It's so pretty out here but there's no way down
I'm fading and it's starting to hurt
I'm fading and it's starting to hurt
But there's a tough slick kid
Looking up at me
And he blows his lid
And he's good and mean
And I cut him loose
And I become
The pain of yesterday
And the setting sun
Hey, hey mama, would you look at me?
I'm sitting on the edge of the world
I've got a strong, strong urge to fly now
And the big sail came unfurled
Hey, hey mama would you look at me?
In the center of the universe
It's so pretty out here but there's one way down
I'm standing on the top of the Earth
See me standing on the top of the Earth?
See me standing on the top of the Earth?
See me standing on the top of the Earth?
