lyrics

And I'm on the edge of dreaming
As light creeps through the leaves
Past a portrait of you and me
Catching dust of a different air
One that's waiting for a change
And holds us while the world goes by
As I fall in love with your cheeks
So safe and so serene

I'm weighing up the odds
I push against my way
A life of two lives
Is this really what it feels like to let go
Of moral weight?

So here I stand on broken feet
Just making my ends meet
For the dreams of a time
For the dreams of a place
That are yet to exist
But have taken up the space
So here I am from prison to palace
Like Joseph laid to waste
I don't need a God; just belief
That the weight will be lifted
And make a change out of me

But can't you understand
What it means to make a man?
They won't move around it
And you just can't understand it
So I know
That on the edge of dreaming's where I'll stay

And I keep rubbing my eyes
Pinching harder on my side
As the feeling drifts away
From inertia to pain
To remind myself
I can't change the way I'm going
Just like a dying flame

So I'm weighing up the odds
And I push against my way
They can't move around it
I can't bear to understand it
So I know
That on the edge of dreaming's where I'll stay

White House Down England, UK

The core of White House Down was formed more than a decade ago in a small village hall in Faulkland, Somerset.

Drawing from a variety of the classic and cult rock and roll artists of the 20th century, they always maintain their personal and unmistakable stamp.

Their sound, coupled with the lyrics and muses of Tom Hunt, is one that will leave a lasting impression on fans of the old and the new. ... more
