	Joseph was a good man though he killed his wife
	and [someone’s ?] little children, he took their lives
	This was the act of a desperate man
	with all the love in his eyes and 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 sky's razors edge
	and watched his life slowly sinking away, away, away
	Mary was a troubled girl, she stole to eat
	she had to sell her body to put the shoes on her feet
	Stole a car and tried to get away
	Now all that she hears is the rain on the roof in 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 sky's razors edge
	and watched her life slowly sinking away, away, away
	They were standing at the sky's edge
	and out there, who knows what they're thinking?
	They were sliding down the sky's razors edge
	and watched their lives, slowly sinking away, away, away
	Jacob was misguided, he carried a blade
	So much fear in the city, it carried him away
	Young men are fighting and losing their lives
	At night as the screech owls 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 sky's razors 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 river's edge
	And watched their lives, slowly sinking away, away, away

	Joseph was a good man though he killed his wife
	and someone' s ? little children, he took their lives
	This was the act of a desperate man

	She was sliding down the sky' s razors edge

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