She said if she could only find
An easy way to lose her mind
She’d hop the first train to nowhere
She could leave it all behind
Concentrate on me, myself, and I
Maybe she could find out why she’s so scared

Tucks her head between her knees
Finds it hard to breathe

I guess we’re all a little on edge these days
You know with the end of the world and all
Everybody’s telling you
What to think, what to do, what to say now
They’ll promise you the world and all

She’s not the cover of a magazine
She’s not the portrait of a beauty queen
But she’s good enough for this town
She’s not the picture of perfection
Lord knows she’s trying
She just wants a man to say that he’s proud

Maybe if she’s fast enough
She can get out before she’s stuck

I guess we’re all a little on edge these days
You know with the end of the world and all
Everybody’s telling you
What to think, what to do, what to say now
They’ll promise you the world and all

I guess we’re all a little on edge these days
You know with the end of the world and all
Everybody’s telling you
What to think, what to do, what to say now
They’ll promise you the world and all

I guess we’re all a little on edge these days
You know with the end of the world and all
Everybody’s telling you
What to think, what to do, what to say now
They’ll promise you the world and all
