Dancing on the Edge of Sorrow

A cycle of poems «Everything Hurts and I Am Almost Famous»

I’m spinning in circles, caught between the lines, 
A broken melody playing in my mind, 
Your shadow’s haunting every step I take, 
A fragile heart that’s ready now to break. 

And I’m holding on, but it’s slipping through, 
The colors fade to shades of blue, 
Can’t tell if I’m lost or finally found -   
Dancing on this battleground. 

We’re dancing on the edge of sorrow, 
Fighting for a better tomorrow, 
With every tear that falls, we rise again, 
Holding on through all the pain. 
Dancing on the edge of sorrow, 
Chasing dreams we can’t borrow, 
In this chaos, we’ll find our way -   
Together or astray. 

The nights are cold but I’m burning bright, 
Fighting demons in the fading light, 
Your voice a whisper calling out my name, 
A bittersweet reminder of the flame. 

And I’m holding on, but it’s slipping through, 
The colors fade to shades of blue, 
Can’t tell if I’m lost or finally found -   
Dancing on this battleground. 

We’re dancing on the edge of sorrow, 
Fighting for a better tomorrow, 
With every tear that falls, we rise again, 
Holding on through all the pain. 
Dancing on the edge of sorrow, 
Chasing dreams we can’t borrow, 
In this chaos, we’ll find our way -   
Together or astray. 

Maybe one day the sun will break the night, 
Heal the wounds and make it right, 
But until then, we’ll keep this fight alive -   
Dancing on the edge to survive. 

We’re dancing on the edge of sorrow, 
Fighting for a better tomorrow, 
With every tear that falls, we rise again, 
Holding on through all the pain. 
Dancing on the edge of sorrow, 
Chasing dreams we can’t borrow, 
In this chaos, we’ll find our way -   
Together or astray.
