Hanging on to the past there is nothing more certain
Than the pain the strange will induce
Covering ourselves with the armor of danger
We’ll do our best to subdue
We’ll live on defeating intruders
We’ll live on aggressive and bold
Living on the edge of Eden we will beat them
Living on the edge of Eden we will seize them
Nothing will puncture our balloon
No one will take this from you
In the battle of life the fighters do flourish
The winners decide what is true
The gods of the victors are moral and just
The defeated evil and cruel
We’ll live on treading towards heaven
We’ll live on deny Armageddon
Living on the edge of Eden we will fight on
Living on the edge of Eden we will march on
Never letting go of pain
Never trusting the strange
I turn my head from the celebration and
Mourn for the city left in flames
I look away from my peaceful garden and
Wish to share it with friends
Here we stand at the edge of Eden
With gas masks, hatred and rage
Here we stand at the edge of Eden
Killing it’s flowers and grain
