Styx - Edge Of The Century lyrics

rate me

Written by Glen Burtnik, Bob Burger

Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik

Living on the edge of the century

See the world in revolution

Spinning faster all the time

We're heading for the end of something

Just about to step across that line

Oh, can't you see?

We're staring in the face of reality

Oh, you and me

We're living on the edge of the century

Feel the way the earth is shaking

Hear the rumble miles away

Say goodby to Checkpoint Charlie

Walls are falling every day

Oh, can't you see?

Every step we take we're making history

Oh, you and me

We're living on the edge of the century

[alternate 2nd verse from the 1999 tour]

Feel the way the earth is shaking

Fires and floods and hurricanes

A voice cries out in revelation

"Say hello to Y2K!"

Oh, can't you see?

We're jumpin on the ledge of uncertainty

Oh, you and me

We're living on the edge of the century

Can't turn off the information

Can't sit back in your easy chair

Can't ignore a generation

Better get ready cause we're almost there

We're moving at the speed of life

Into a brave new world where the strong will survive

The dawn's gonna break and I'll meet you

On the other side

Can't stand still while the earth is turning

Can't take cover til the coast is clear

Can't play guitar while Rome is burning

Look our now cause the future's here

And we're moving at the speed of life

Living on the edge

On the edge of the century
