Breathe Carolina: Edge of Heaven Meaning

Edge of Heaven Lyrics

I can't hold back
My hands won't let me
It's the touch of your skin
Is it lust or envy?
Is it lust or envy?

I can't hold back
My pride won't let me
I'm seeing red
This is all too deadly
This is all too deadly

Fallout!
One more...

   Singing about meth in this one. Look back to the song Chemicals where they say "we fill it back up Amphetamine rush set me on fire tonight" this song is in correlation with that, One more taste, Doing meth is called a taste and in the techno breakdown you hear him say "tik tik" which is another name for Meth.

   I'm pretty sure it has to do with the seven deadly sins... I mean it mentions all of them... So... Ya'Know.

   Okay there are lots of different ways this song can be interperated.
   
   The 7 deadly sins...
   He keeps getting further away from god.
   Lust and envy are the sins he feels like he's already made.
   "All seven"
   
   Being an alcoholic...
   Jack Daniels no. 7, and feeling like he's getting further away from god.
   He was in control for a while, but tonight he's letting go.
   As if he's already on the edge of heaven.
   "Old friend, how long it's been. My original sin we meet again."
   He's at a party, and he wants to fit in with his friends.
   "I can't hold back, my pride won't let me."
   "One more taste."
   (this is the best one, I think.)
   
   The game 7 Minutes in Heaven.
   Using all seven, and wanting to go further with the girl he's with.
   "I can't hold back, my hands won't let me."
   
   Sex...
   Being exhausted from intercorse, and feeling as if sex is a sin.

   hes obviously talking about sex... he cant get up, motivation left him because hes spent from having sex & hanging from the edge of heaven means hes almost coming.. his original sin is the girl, he uses her when he needs release.. thats why he only sees her every once in awhile, so he meets her again... hes wondering if he wants her cause of lust or envy? lust being he just wants sex.. envy would be because her skin & about just specifically her...
   
   thats just my interpretation :)

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

   overall, the song is about the seven deadly sins.
   *"all seven"- chorus.
   *"is it lust or envy"?
   "father" referring to god.
   he's trying to live a faithful life but his sins keep catching up with him.
   now he's,
   "hanging from the edge of heaven."
