Too Close To The Edge
Too close to the edge, I was once
To rain and storm, I used to dance
I used to play with the sun and moon
Hoping my glory would come to soon
I chased my fate on deathly plains
Hoping that race would bring me gains
I travelled mountains, near and far
Trying to rope and touch the star
Too close to the edge, I almost fell
Believing that I owned a spell
A dared too much the scorching heat
Thinking that great was my heartbeat
I fished on sea on stormy night
Thinking that time was always right
Too close to edge, I dared the deep
That to now, hunts me in my sleep
