The Edge Lyrics by Spectrum, Silver Apples

A Lake Of Teardrops

0

I don't know how I got there
All I know is that I was suddenly alone
I was naked
And I was lying on a metal slab of some sort
Feeling with my hands out in front of me
I carefully crawled over to the edge because the surface was slippery
I peered over but I didn't open my eyes because I was afraid
I stayed there for the longest time trying to work up the nerve
But I couldn't
I felt a cold chill creep up the left side of my body
But I didn't want to know what caused it
Something started to drip on the spot on my back
But I didn't dare touch where it was
If only my thoughts weren't so blurry
If only my senses weren't so dulled
If only I were stronger
I felt along the edge of where I was kneeling
And it was rounded and smooth
I reached over the side
Keeping my hand on the surface
It felt slick and wet and cold
It wasn't metal, but it was metallic
It wasn't natural but it was somehow familiar
It wasn't friendly, but it was sort of strangely intimate
I've had enough of that
I pulled my hand back and without thinking I touched it to my face
I discovered I couldn't feel my forehead, or my ears, or my cheek
I don't blink my eyes, and there was nothing
I mean like it wasn't dark, it wasn't light, it wasn't anything
I tried to reason this out
I found it with my eyes open
I was alone, and then a void
With my eyes closed, I was in a strange and frightening place
But at least it was something
If only my thoughts weren't so blurry
If only my senses weren't so dulled
If only I were stronger
