I think my pulse is up
Danger all around
Howling at a black moon
With all the hungry hounds
Can you hear me calling
Can you hear me scream
I know it may be scary
But I think I like this dream
Dancing on the blade’s edge
Close enough to draw blood
Shaking on the fault line
In waters bound to flood
Walking on a tight rope
Grabbing thorns in the hedge
Searching for the quick rush
Dancing on the blade’s edge
I think my heart skipped
Breathing getting deep
Flying like a danger bird
And I can barely speak
Do you see me hungry
Do you see me crawl
Like a caged animal
Who wants to take it all
Dancing on the blade’s edge
Close enough to leave scars
Burning out the power grid
Just so I can see stars
Jumping on the live wire
Flying off the ledge
Searching for the quick rush
Dancing on the blade’s edge
Is it time to wake up
Is it time to come down
Is time to get lost
Just so I can be found
Can you hear it calling
Can you see the prize
I can try to hold back
But I can feel the quicksand rise
Dancing on the blade’s edge
Close enough to feel the sting
Breaking all the freedom bells
Just so I can hear them ring
Falling from a flag pole
While I sing my pledge
Searching for the quick rush
Dancing on the blade’s edge








Excellent flow and rhyme scheme. You maintained the subject on point, throughout.

Thank you! I had fun writing it actually. And I loved riding that edge on the paper. It was kind of a kick. And people ended up responding to it well, so I am quite thankful.
Powerfully penned, Brandon. Excellent write with a lyrical vibe and an intensity to it my friend. Appreciate you.
