Shiver On the Edge
You never once told me how hard it would be to throw away the key,
Once I had locked away my yesterday,
Now all of the monsters I outran before are scratching at my door,
Did they speed up or did I slow down?
The specter of my history waits,
To haunt me with my old mistakes,
Lies in wait till I arrive.
No matter how many times I throw her out, I still wake up with Doubt.
Like some jealous mistress, she just hangs around.
With every inch I give, she takes her mile with a wink and a flirty smile,
But while she sleeps so sound, tonight Iʼm going underground.
The specter of my history waits,
To haunt me with my old mistakes,
Lies in wait till I arrive.
Should I shiver on the edge,
Between the dying and the dead?
Or should I close my eyes and dive?
I built a castle out of cards,

With crumpled turrets and paper guards,
The bells in the belltower
Rang their last regards,
Then it all came tumbling down.
The specter of my history waits,
To haunt me with my old mistakes,
Lies in wait till I arrive.
Should I shiver on the edge,
Between the dying and the dead?
Or should I choose to be alive?
When my storyʼs finally told,
The screen goes black, the credits roll,
I will not walk away in shame.
These torn out pages left behind,
Read real close, the final line,
I rewrote history and signed my name.
