Sittin' on the edge, atop a canyon 
I'm a piece of time too small to name 
There's a sign that's hanging over me 
Let me disappear and try again 

I'm no prophet, but I've seen things 
When right and wrong become too close 
In that moment of my greatness 
I become afraid and watch it go 

And the day is long 
And the bridge is gone 
And the river's washed away 
The road I'm on 
Only road I know 

Everybody's got a problem 
Something to do with self control 
You gotta tell somebody if you got one 
You can't pretend you didn't know 

Staring out, across the canyon 
My eyes won't tell me what to see 
If I let go, I could be floating 
From the river to the sea 

And the day is long 
And the bridge is gone 
And the river's washed away 
The road I'm on 
Only road I know 

If I let go, I could be floating 
From the river to the sea 

And the day is long 
And the bridge is gone 
And the river's washed away 
The road I'm on 
Only road 
Only road I know
