I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do now want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand The angry boy, a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain, you know you don't belong
You're the first to fight, you're way too loud You're the flash of light on a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well, everyone I know has got a reason to say
Put the past away I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties from all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand Well, he's on the table and he's going to code
And I do not think anyone knows what they are doing here
And your friends have left and you've been dismissed
I never thought it would come to this And I, I want you know, know
Everyone's got to face down the demons
Maybe today, we can put the past away I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties from all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand, I would understand
(I would understand, I would understand, I would understand) Can you put the past away?
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
I would understand
You could cut ties from all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
And I would understand I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
And I would understand
