And then it came at the end of all time   A time where nothing grows old, nothing dies   It's a place where you can fly all around, heaven is found   Can't you see the bright lightning in sound?      Close to the edge, I was running out of time   Close to the edge, but now there's peace of mind      And now I look to the north and I see in front of me   A shining blue light in the distance, oh I see   A castle of ivory gold, look out, behold   It almost never became my home, no, no      Close to the edge, I was running out of time   Close to the edge, walking on a thin, thin line      Close to the edge, the spotlight shines on you now   Close to the edge, you better make your choice soon now   Close to the edge, your heart's the key that makes you free   Close to the edge, as the world blinds your eyes, God can make you see   You're close to the edge      Don't burn out the light, it ain't burning bright   Son, can't you see where you're going, you're close to the edge      Oh, well I know you cry, you don't wanna die,   So take what I?ve found, and you'll be miles and miles from the edge   You're close to the edge      On the edge of the world there's only one rhyme   But you ain't got the time to know what it means   You're dead, you're dead   Don't figure it out 'cause you're dead, oh you're dead   On the edge of the world      Close to the edge   Close to the edge   Close to the edge   ...
