Brink
I feel like I’m on the brink of something
Like I’m right on the edge
Like I’m right about to get to it
Like I’m right there on its tail
And I only have to reach my hand out
And take it...
If I could, I would
If I could, I would
If I could, I would...
Would I?
If I could?
Would I?
Because I’ve felt like I’ve been on the brink of something for a very long time now
Because I've felt like I've been on the tip of something since... damn near forever
Because I’ve felt like I was going to be somebody since...
I don’t know how long
But I’ve felt it
And I’ve known it
And yet I’m not
But I swear...
I swear that I'm on the brink of something...
I would tell you even now that I'm on the brink of something
Even now
After spending all my energy
And confidence
And cash
Just reaching
Even now after all this time
I would still tell you
With great certainty
And great feeling
That I swear that its there
That I’m on the brink of something
I know it
Because Goddamn it
I feel like I’m on the brink of something
I have to be on the brink of something
I have to be close to the edge by now
So I can finally leap the fuck off of it
I know that I’m on the brink of something
If only
I knew what it was...
Haven’t I been on the brink of something?
Does everyone feel like they’re on the brink of something?
Have I been continually and perpetually deluding myself?
Because
I’d tell you
I’d bet you
I’d’d swear,
I'd bet
It’s right there
Isn’t it?
