At The Edge

Our grasp is so fragile

The thread is so thin

I wonder each day

if I´m blowing away

I know that I´m lucky

I wouldn´t be here at all

if somebody´s hand

hadn´t been where I stand

At the edge of a very great fall

And like a lighthouse before

you at the edge of the sea

the woman whose grip

holds when you slip

But the darkness won´t get you

Your family won´t go

They will make your heart light

to where you know what is right

And you go where you know

you should go

And it´s life and it´s dying

It´s beginning and ends

It´s what did you do

with the life they gave you

It´s were you that honest, and

did you make amends

to all the ones under your guns

How have you treated your friends
