The Edge

v1
most of us will never know
how dark this world can seem
when life becomes more nightmare
than a dream
but to all of you
who have survived
a visit to the edge
I trust that you
will understand this pledge

Chorus:
I promise I will always leave
the darkness for the light
I swear by all that's holy
I will not give up the fight
I'll drink down death like water
before I ever come again
to that dark place
where I might make
the choice for life to end

v2
I found that as I traveled
through the inscape of my life
that mountaintops make valleys in between
and when that nameless sadness
like a cloud comes over me
I look back on all the brightness
I have seen
chorus.
