Never look down

Walking the edge
The razor’s edge
Don’t look down
Look straight ahead
Smile
Play to the crowd
Keep moving - always
Riding the the gusts
Wait...
Use the bar
And walk
Smile
Look straight ahead
Walk the edge
Stop.
Turn around
Nothing below but the void
The ground
Disaster and death
Use the bar
Keep moving
Life is only worth living
When it's played to the crowd
Treading the wire
A gust
Momentary loss of control
The end.
Smile to the crowd
Look straight ahead
Balanced on a razor's edge
Never look down
Keep moving
