Lady Gaga: The Edge of Glory Meaning

The Edge of Glory Lyrics

There ain’t no reason you and me should be alone
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah baby
I got a reason that you’re who should take me home tonight

I need a man that thinks it’s right when it’s so wrong
Tonight, yeah baby
Tonight, yeah...

   The Edge Of Glory is not about being the best about Gaga. It's about telling the world how she feel about the end of everybody's life. DEATH... Some thinks that The Edge of Glory also talks about sex and making love and being alone looking for someone to be with... But since Gaga is also under a controversy of being a Illuminati.. the lyrics "It isn't hell if everybody knows my name tonight" may refer to selling ur soul to demons for fame and doen't think about getting to hell... The lyriucs from "another shot............to........put on your shades coz i'll be dancing in the flames tonight" aso proves the same meaning... What do you think... is it about DEATH, SEX, OR SELLING URSELF TO THE DEVIL FOR FAME".. just watch Gaga's performance in Germany for the Edge Of GLory.. she dances for SEX, MONEY and DIE in the end for VANITY... what does it means.....

   Also at the end of the video when she crawls through the window there is a white light like the light you see when you die.

   When I heard about the meaning of this song, I almost started to cry. Lady gaga touches me in every way, her lyrics speak to me. She's such an inspiration to me and a lot of other ppl. In a way most of her songs r about life and she's totally correct!!! I luv her!!! <3

   Being on the edge of something means that you're nervous, jittery or uncomfortable.

   The edge of glory is when you reach the success of your goals and dreams, to see the fruit of your perseverance and hardworking.

   but me and my friends were sitting down, and the whole time its like, she's on the edge of glory, in the middle of sex....ya know? if you listen and think about it that way it makes a lot of sense

   The edge of glory is the moment you die its about her grandfather and when he died
   so it talks about her granddad dying and him being at the edge of glory as in when he died

   I believe that this song is about living your life to the fullest. When you are almost going to pass away you have to hang on because that is the highest point of your life. My interpretation is just one out of many. Maybe Lady Gaga would tell us?

    being on the edge means your about to commit suicide, death is glory. It's about how lady gaga is suicidal because of her depression.

    It's about Karma Sutra and sex. She talks about taking a guy home and falling in love. She's on the edge, meaning she's about to have an orgasm and he keeps her from having it, prolonging the sex and feeling of ecstasy (hanging on the moment with you).

    The song is clearly about suicide, and going to hell, where she dances in the flames, but its not hell if you know her name. Its freaky

    She stated that glory is when your about to die. Death is your glory and your on the edge of glory. Its about her grandad
