Pretty Things - Edge Of The Night lyrics

The hour's late and not a soul on the street,

As i stood alone there, at the edge of the night.

With all your wisdom, you had gone to bed early

I hesitated and just think what it cost me

Just like a victim in the sights it doesn't feel right

At the edge of the night.

I had the backbone but then, i heard it cracking.

I faced the terror but i found myself lacking

What good is courage here, at the edge of the night.

At the edge of the night.

There was this man,

Gun in his hand,

That wanted to waste me

My mouth became dry,

I reached for the sky,

The sight seemed to freeze me

He said he'd been a hero,

Now he'd fallen down to zero

Ain't it a crime

Whooo

I handed over all i had on my person

My bank america card and this was my first one

Then he just stepped right out of sight, at the edge of the night

At the edge of the night.
