Lyrics
LIVING ON THE EDGE OF LIFE
The misplaced arm of the law
Burns his sense of justice raw
His empty cries just bounce
Off stone walls
He knows his right from wrong
And thru the years so long
His heart stands firm
His reason strong
Justice, justice,
Is his call, He is
Living on the edge of life
No freedom, cuts like a knife He knows someday he'll win
Be free, be free
Free again
Victim of bent, twisted lies
Clear truth showing in his eyes
They refuse his
Alibis -
Request denied
His struggle still goes on
It's hope that carries him along
His spirit fixed
on seeing
Freedom's new dawn
Justice, justice,
Is his call, He isLiving on the edge of life
No freedom, cuts like a knife
He knows someday he'll win
Be free, Be free
Free again
