Edge of the Precipice
I live on the edge of the precipiceHovering between this world and the otherLooking down into the abyssAnd upwards to world of bother I balance on the edge not knowingAnd I pray to my gods to help meWhatever I choose I will be goingTo a life to be spent without thee Do I go to the gloom and end my life thereOr should I go running towards the sunMy spirits have left me alone and bareTo make the decision I have shunned On the precipice I stand and ponderNot knowing which way I should goIs it really any wonderThat I stand here like a scarecrow To live out my days in lonelinessNever to see your face againTo choose the sun or the abyssTo me it’s all the same.
