Lyrics:
Don't react when I tell you
And don't react when I tell you
That bright lights mean nothing to you
Cause no one would know
The sound of a ghost
And I might be something to you
Beyond beautiful
Is the sound of a ghost
Can we lose our minds
And call it love for the last time?
My darling, never rest
Until the darker gets
The best of all we had
Can the cold carry on?
When the light means nothing to you;
Then no one would know
The sound of a ghost
And I might be perfect with you
But no one would know
So tell me, tell me
Have you ever really danced on the edge
Is something still scaring you?
Have you ever really danced on the edge
The count of three is up
Have you ever really danced on the edge
Alright then tell me so
Have you ever really danced on the edge
Just hold my hand and jump
And bright lights mean nothing to you
Cause no one would know
The sound of a ghost
Oh, no one would know
The sound of a ghost

I don't understand how they were able to make something so unique and unforgettable. It's not a normal rock song, it's more complex than that. Still one of my top 10 songs of all time.

[@andresdelgado9307]

Oh yah ur tops songs of ALL TIME 🤯

yea

[@wishtheyunderstoodme]

Yea this is is like cranberries/zombie or linkin park/in the end. Just powerful but vulnerable masterpieces.

Perfectly and honestly said. This song is nothing short of a Masterpiece.

How is this not their most popular song?

[@draftmagicagain1000]

Totally agree. I am a huge fan of this band. I love many of their songs. Having said that, this song stands head and shoulders above them all.

The steel guitar in the chorus is genius.

[@BLEACH-xb6kn]

Explain

[@ryanlyle9201]

@@BLEACH-xb6kn Its not very common for post-hardcore or really any hardcore genre to use steel guitar. It accompanies the chorus really well because it mimics and blends with the backup vocals.

[@oloxhossono1956]

@@BLEACH-xb6kn 2 years late reply but they're talking about the swinging guitar sound in the chorus

[@Frosty.Fingers]

I’m 25 now and this song hurts so much more than it ever did when I was 16 because it’s more relevant than before. When they said “have you ever really danced on the edge?” gave me chills

Yooo i needee this thank you 🤧

[@NoOneCaresJSYK]

Thanks boss 💞

[@ZaziTheBeastYT]

i feel like this album was their most mature album, I was 15 at the time I first heard this album and I felt like it was music for older people cause of the subject and topics and just the musical structure itself. I wish they could make an album like this again. Collide with the sky and following ones felt more like they started making music that catered to their younger audience and what other bands of the same genre were doing at the time.

[@gremlin2101]

I totally feel the same way! I couldn't really get into these songs when i first found PTV at 14, so I resonated more with collide with the sky songs. Even some selfish machines songs just weren't what I liked to listen to. Now I'm revisiting pierce the veil 8 years later and a flair for the dramatic is my favorite album beacause it's so....just raw. Pure, raw, musical emotion. I still love collide with the sky though.

[@ZaziTheBeastYT]

@@gremlin2101 I feel you I listened to this album first from them so it will always hold a special place in my heart. Especially wonderless I have it tattooed on my arm lol but yeah their other albums were great but this one holds a special place in my heart. It's awesome you like it now!

[@seviore]

i love the fact that peirce the veil making good music not for fame, they make good music for your mini time machine.

[@NoOneCaresJSYK]

I remember listening to this and crying because the guy I loved just couldn’t allow himself to be loved. We were absolute best friends. But also best friends who were in love and slept together. I posted “have you ever really danced on the edge? Is something still scaring you?” on facebook and he liked the post (this was before reactions bc omg I’m getting old). He then posted saying something like “is being with someone you love worth risking losing them?” The answer was yes it was. We cycled around in circles but also just really loved each other. He told me he was scared. I mean, so was I. He was the only person that I was elated to be with. I felt so lucky to be his girl. He made me feel whole, like we were two halves joined to be one. I can’t honestly properly fathom how deep our connection was. But it was a once in a lifetime type of love. Well, he passed away almost 6 years ago and lord do I miss him. Life is so bland with him gone. I really don’t know how or if I’m gonna survive decades of the pain. You’d think time would make it easier. It doesn’t. It only makes thing harder.

No reaccionas cuando te digo ... Y no reaccionas cuando te digo ... Que las luces brillantes no significan nada para ti Porque nadie sabría el sonido de un fantasma Y podría ser algo para ti Más allá de lo bello está el sonido de un fantasma Podemos perder nuestras mentes ¿Y llamarlo amor por última vez? (Sí) Mi querido nunca descanse Hasta que el más oscuro se pone Lo mejor de todo lo que tuvimos ¿Puede continuar el frío? Cuando la luz no significa nada para ti Entonces nadie sabría El sonido de un fantasma Y podría ser perfecto contigo Pero nadie sabría Entonces dime, dime ¿Alguna vez has bailado al límite? ¿Algo todavía te está asustando? ¿Alguna vez has bailado al límite? La cuenta de tres es hasta ¿Alguna vez has bailado al límite? Está bien, entonces dime ¿Alguna vez has bailado al límite? Solo sostén mi mano y salta Y las luces brillantes no significan nada para ti Porque nadie sabría el sonido de un fantasma Oh, nadie sabría el sonido de un fantasma
