On the edge

Sitting with one foot dangling down my own grave,

Watching the stars in the starry sky.

I decide to abuse the priest for his sermon


Standing next to the electric chair,

Watching the grin on the jailor's face.

I decide to make love to the woman whom I loved so much.


Holding the railing of the ship about to sink ,

Watching the waves come my wave.

I decide to tell my ex-wife how much I love her.


Living on the edge was my dream.

But I compromised.


But today before I die, I will for once live on the edge.
