Edge Of The Earth Lyrics

I took one step closer to the edge of the Earth to see if I would fall

I knew that if I did, I would bookend my birth—of which I can't recall

Then I took a step back to reassess my place in the middle of it all

And saw that if I stepped right off out into space, then my Momma would be appalled

Up and down and round—need to get out of my head

Got to start thinking about my health

Take a break from sleeping—go get outta my bed

Put my worries up on the shelf

Oh, Momma how I hear you even though you are dead

Saying I still have so much time

Gotta go and live my best life—stop living with dread

Because to give up would be a crime

So, I turned myself away from the edge of the Earth, ready to face my fears

But the only thing I saw then was my lack of worth compared to all my peers

Which made me go and turn myself back around to go and end my years

But I knew that if I stepped right off out into space, then my Momma would be in tears

Up and down and round—need to get out of my head

Got to start thinking about my health

Take a break from sleeping—go get outta my bed

Put my worries up on the shelf

Oh, Momma how I hear you even though you are dead

Saying I still have so much time

Gotta go and live my best life—stop living with dread

Because to give up would be a crime
