I wish you would step ba ck
From that ledge, m y friend
(you could) cut ties with all the lies
That you've b een living in.
(And) if you do not wa nt to see me aga in,
I would under stand,
I would under stand,
The a ngry boy, a bit too insane,
Icing over a secret pain.
You know you don't belong.
You're the f irst to fight, you're way too loud.
You're the fl ash of light on the burial shroud.
I know something's wrong.
Well, e v'ryone I know has got a re a - son
To say pu t the past away ! !
Well, he's on the table and he's gone to code
And I do not think anyone knows what the y are doing here.
And your friends have left you, you've been dismissed.
I never thought it would come to this and I,
I want you to know
Ev'eryone's got to face down the de - mons.
Maybe today, you could put the past away ! !
I wish you would step ba ck
From that ledge, m y friend
(you could) cut ties with all the lies
That you've b een living in.
(And) if you do not wa nt to see me aga in,
I would under stand,
I would under stand,
I would under stand.
I would understand.
I would understan d. Understand.
