Standing by myself on the sidewalk

Nothing in this world could make me talk

I'm nailed to this floor where there is no air

Alone I see myself and stare

Locked inside this world you gave me

It's lonely here through the smoke I can't see clear



And I know all the ways and I'll try

And I've seen all the places I get eyed

If I bear myself in the yard

Would the end of the day always seem so hard



Wait for the world to turn around

Then I won't go up or down

Gentle winds must sometimes sit

The face that looks on in my mirror



And I know all the ways and I can try

And I've seen all the places where I hide

If I bear myself out in the yard

Would the end of the day always be so hard



Standing on the edge of the wall

Sometimes I get too close and I fallyeah



And I know all the ways and I can try

And I've seen all the places where I hide

If I bear myself in the yard

Would the end of the day always be so hard



Well all the nights last a thousand years

When you're in a time that feels so near

I'll just say you were the word I found

And then I won't go up or down

And I know all the ways and I can try

And I've seen all the places where I hide

If I bear myself in the yard

Would the end of the day always be so hard

Standing on the edge of the wall

Sometimes I look down and I fallyeah



Just standing on the edge of the wall

I always go to far and I fallyeah
