Originally written for a carpe diem project in 2004, "Dance on the Edge" was completely re-written in 2006 using the same concept.

Sometimes it's hard to smile despite your fears
So you fly on through the road of life
And shed silent tears
Well I'm here to let you know:
Don't hide
It's time for you to open your eyes

So why live your life unnoticed?

Live a little, laugh a lot
Dream forever, never stop
Now's the time to shine
Climb high, reach for the stars
Don't be afraid, just stand tall
And dance on the edge of life

I dare you to live life to the fullest
And like each day is new
And never stop smiling
You're beautiful, so know it's true
Don't pass through life afraid
It's time to face your foes and say:

"I'm living life, so notice!"


Live a little, laugh a lot
Dream forever, never stop
Now's the time to shine
Climb high, reach for the stars
Don't be afraid, just stand tall
And dance on the edge of life

So you've got something to prove?
Show them what you can do, and say--
"I won't shy away,
Look at me today!"


Live a little, laugh a lot
Dream forever, never stop
Now's the time to shine
Climb high, reach for the stars
Don't be afraid, just stand tall
And dance on the edge of life

Keep dancing on the edge of life
Dance on the edge of life
