OUT ON THE EDGE
Living on the Edge: Embracing Risk and Thriving
Lyrics
There's a lighthouse that warns of hazard on the coastline
There is a warning beacon on the coastline alerting about dangers.
Making shadows so bright, they're not that dark at all
The shadows created by the lighthouse are not as ominous as expected; they are relatively bright.
Details emerge as the light illuminates the nighttime
As the light reveals more, finer details become visible in the night.
I feel my spirit irresistibly drawn to danger's call
The speaker feels an irresistible pull toward the call of danger or risk.
I'm so driven, livin' out on the edge
The speaker lives life with a constant pursuit of thrill and risk.
I feel so alive
This risky lifestyle makes the speaker feel incredibly alive.
Sometimes livin' leaves me out on a ledge
At times, this way of living leaves the speaker feeling exposed or vulnerable.
Asking why I'm still alive
The speaker questions why they are still alive despite the risks they take.
If the sign says don't touch, I'm thinking,
The speaker tends to question prohibitions, wondering about the potential consequences.
"What's the worst that could happen?"
The speaker ponders about the worst outcomes that could occur.
Dip my toe in forbidden water just to see
They engage in forbidden actions just to test the boundaries.
Walking outside of the fence meant to save us from the chasm
The speaker deliberately steps outside the safety measures meant to protect.
Pondering who i can possibly be if I break free
Reflecting on the possibilities of self-discovery if they break free from restrictions.
I'm so driven, livin' out on the edge
Reiteration of the speaker's inclination toward living on the edge.
I feel so alive

Still alive
