[Chorus]
I wish you would
Step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand

[Verse 1]
The angry boy a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know, you don't belong
You're the first to fight, you're way too loud
You're the flash of light on a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well, everyone I know has got a reason
To say, Put the past away

[Chorus]
I wish you would
Step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand
[Verse 2]
Well, he's on thе table
And he's gone to codе
And I do not think anyone knows
What they're 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
Everyone's got to face down the demons
Maybe today, you can put the past away

[Chorus]
I wish you would
Step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand
