can you give some more example of edge in idioms?

idioms confound me ... "on the edge" of town is different than of a cliff ... what is the idiom for "on the edge of my seat" or almost being driven crazy as saying "he's really on edge" ? maybe an "edgy" lesson?

I had a problem!

There is a concealed difficulty in this lesson for English speakers who don't know how to congregate the irregular verb "hurt". The examples provided are very good and demonstrate the problem, but i needed a good English grammar book to correctly identify the problem.

hurt (v pr))

hurts (v pr3)

hurt (v pt)

hurt (v pp)
