    Default Solved : Mystery song - something about getting down off the ledge in the chorus

    Can you help me to identify this song?

    Male vocals, something in the chorus about:

    get down off that ledge?
    get off the ledge?
    come down off the ledge?
    ...?

    I heard this song on a radio station that plays a mix of things along the lines of Snow Patrol, Jem, Nickelback, the Raconteurs, the Fray, and Justin Timberlake. I can't place it and don't know if it's newer, although it sounds like current music. I don't think the station plays the song often b/c I haven't heard it again in over a week, but maybe I've just missed it.

    Thanks for you help!

    Song: World of Sh**
    Artist: Eels

    In this world of Sh**
    Baby you are it
    A little light that shines all over
    Must take over and see us through the night

    Daddy was a troubled genius
    Mama was a real good egg
    Why don't we just get together
    For whatever and see if it's alright

    I spent so many days
    Just staring at the haze
    And I think that that's a book
    That I don't have to write again
    Now when I rise I shine
    I got you on my mind
    And the question isn't if
    The question is merely when...

    Baby I confess
    I am quite a mess
    So let's get married and make some people
    More than equal in this world of sh**

    I will make a pledge
    To get down off the ledge
    You and I belong together
    And forever we will have our love

    I don't think that's it. The line about the ledge is repeated several times throughout the song. But I do like the Eels so I'm going to check out this song, too. Thanks for your help!

    Third Eye Blind - Jumper
    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 a burial shroud
    I know something's wrong

    Well everyone I know has got a reason to say
    Put the past away

    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

    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 'till you've been dismissed
    I never thought it would come to this and I
    I want you to know
    Everyone's got to face down the demons
    Maybe today you can put the past away

    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

    Can you put the past away
    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
    And 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 understand

    Not Sure if thats the one or not.. hopefully it is
