There's a feild of gold
There's a sliver river
There's a place I know, I left it all behind
Chasin' every high
Chasin' sirens singing
I fell for every lie, and left me here to die
Tears taste bitter
Fool's gold glitters
Now I curse my pride
Finally I can say this to you
I have been a blind fool
Wasting all you gave 'til all that's left
Is sorrow breaking both my shoulders
I'd give anything to start over
'Til then I'll be here standing at the edge of eden
Now my hands are cold
And my stomachs empty
I betrayed my home for one forbidden bite
Tears taste bitter
Fool's gold glitters
Now I curse my pride
Finally I can say this to you
I have been a blind fool
Wasting all you gave 'til all that's left
Is sorrow breaking both my shoulders
I'd give anything to start over
'Til then I'll be here standing at the edge of eden
You gave me life
I gave you shame
I took all your love and I threw it away
Don't call me your son
I don't deserve to be counted as one who would carry your name
Finally I can say this to you
I have been a blind fool
Wasting all you gave 'til all that's left
Is sorrow breaking both my shoulders
I'd give anything to start over
'Til then I'll be here standing at the edge of eden
Standing at the edge of eden
Standing at the edge of eden
