Styx - Edge of The Century текст песни

Written by glen burtnik, bob burger

Lead vocals by glen burtnik

Living on the edge of the century

See the world in revolution

Spinning faster all the time

Were heading for the end of something

Just about to step across that line

Oh, cant you see?

Were staring in the face of reality

Oh, you and me

Were living on the edge of the century

Feel the way the earth is shaking

Hear the rumble miles away

Say goodby to checkpoint charlie

Walls are falling every day

Oh, cant you see?

Every step we take were making history

Oh, you and me

Were living on the edge of the century

[alternate 2nd verse from the 1999 tour]

Feel the way the earth is shaking

Fires and floods and hurricanes

A voice cries out in revelation

"say hello to y2k!"

Oh, cant you see?

Were jumpin on the ledge of uncertainty

Oh, you and me

Were living on the edge of the century

Cant turn off the information

Cant sit back in your easy chair

Cant ignore a generation

Better get ready cause were almost there

Were moving at the speed of life

Into a brave new world where the strong will survive

The dawns gonna break and Ill meet you

On the other side

Cant stand still while the earth is turning

Cant take cover til the coast is clear

Cant play guitar while rome is burning

Look our now cause the futures here

And were moving at the speed of life

Living on the edge

On the edge of the century
