Standing At the Sky's Edge

Joseph was a good man, though he killed his wife
 His hungry little children, he took their lives
 This was the end of a desperate man
 With only love in his eyes, no evil hands
 He was standing at the sky's edge
 And out there, who knows what he's thinking
 He was sliding down the razor's edge
 And watched his life slowly sinking
 Away, away
 Mary was a troubled girl, she stole to eat
 She had to sell her body to put shoes on her feet
 Stole a car and tried to get away
 Now all she hears is the rain on the roof at sky's edge jail
 She was standing at the sky's edge
 And out there, who knows what she's thinking
 She was sliding down the razor's edge
 And watched her life slowly sinking
 Away, away

 They were standing at the sky's edge
 And out there, who knows what they're thinking
 They were sliding down the razor's edge
 And watched their lives slowly sinking
 Away, away, away, away

 Jacob was misguided, he carried a blade
 So much fear in the city, it carried him away
 Young men were fighting and loosing their lives
 At night as the screech howls in the trees watch, young men die
 They were standing at the sky's edge
 And out there, who knows what they're thinking
 They were sliding down the razor's edge
 And watched their lives slowly sinking
 They were standing at the sky's edge
 And out there, there's dangerous thinking
 They were standing at the mirror's edge
 And watched their lives slowly sinking
 Away, away
 Away, away
 Away
 Away
