Lyrics:
G Bb
It's not the truth I see
F C
It's just a mockery
G Bb
Don't need to waste my time
F C
You know I really tried
G Bb
You take and never give
F C
Make it so hard to live
G Bb
I'm hangin' on a ledge
F C (Back to Intro Riff)
Push me over the edge
G Bb
Don't do the things you do
F C
Don't have to oblige you
G Bb
Mistrusting on my own
F C
Grown tired of your drone
G Bb
Grow up and be a man
F C
Drop dead right where you stand
G Bb
I'm hangin on a ledge
F C (Back to Intro Riff)
Push me over the edge
