I wish you would step back From that ledge, my friend (you could) cut ties with all the lies That you've been living in. (And) if you do not want to see me again, I would understand,                   I would understand,                   The angry boy, a bit too insane, Icing over a secret pain.     You know you don't belong. You're the first to fight, you're way too loud. You're the flash of light on the burial shroud.     I know something's wrong. Well, ev'ryone I know has got a rea - son To say put the past away ! ! Refrain Well, he's on the table and he's gone to code And I do not think anyone knows what they are doing here. And your friends have left you, you've been dismissed. I never thought it would come to this and I, I want you to know Ev'eryone's got to face down the de - mons. Maybe today, you could put the past away ! ! Refrain I wish you would step back From that ledge, my friend (you could) cut ties with all the lies That you've been living in. (And) if you do not want to see me again, I would understand,                   I would understand,                   I would understand.                                                             I would understand.             I would understand.          Understand. (x4)             Can you put the past away ? ! Refrain I wish you would step back From that ledge, my friend I would understand. (I wish you would step back, from that ledge, my friend.) I would understand. (I wish you would step back, from that ledge, my friend.) I would under - stand. (I wish you would step back, from that ledge, my friend.) I would under - stand. (I wish you would step back, from that ledge, my friend.) And I would under - stand                      Finale : (x4)
