The Edge of Sanity

(Music written by Williams, Agrippa, Fern, W. Richard, and A. Richard)

The Edge of Sanity is the 4th Agrippa93 song from the current 2010 lineup.

“…this was the most collaborative effort of the band so far, with contributions from everybody.” – Scott Williams

Lyrics: The Edge of Sanity’s lyrics deal with human psychology as do some earlier A93 songs including A Profound Realization, Stranger in the Mirror, and No Happy Ending.

Lyrics written by Agrippa in 2010

Skeptical of the current state of my mind

Maniacal sense of being in decline

Disarray - lost all sight of the tangible

Slipped away - actions no longer manageable

Standing at the edge

Stepping out and falling down

Eyes open wide

Plunging deep with out a sound

Walk with me beyond the edge of sanity

Baron waste and the taste of inhumanity

Never looking back to life and memories

Walk with me beyond the edge of sanity

Entropy - A constant state of my life

Realized that long ago I lost the fight

Another day - reach for hopes of stability

Washed away - illusions of sensibility

Standing at the edge

Stepping out and falling down

Eyes open wide

Plunging deep with out a sound

Walk with me beyond the edge of sanity

To a world of pain full of human tragedies

A glimpse inside alternate mind realities

Walk with me beyond the edge of sanity

The times I’ve walked to the edge

But turned away

I’ve Wandered nightmare visions

Many shades of grey

Peeled away the tattered shell

of my sound mind

Stripped away stability

To leave behind

Standing at the edge

Stepping out and falling down

Eyes open wide

Plunging deep with out a sound

Walk with me beyond the edge of sanity

Baron waste and the taste of inhumanity

Never looking back to life and memories

Walk with me beyond the edge of sanity
