S$# 021 Elvis Presley | Edge Of Reality
Edge Of Reality doesn't have the same profile as A Little Less Conversation, another track from the Live A Little, Love A Little soundtrack that became a latter-day hit for the King when it was remixed in 2002 and included on 30 #1 Hits.
No, EOR doesn't have that profile. But I think it's one of Elvis Presley's better movie songs from the late 60s. It's been described as atmospheric and moody. That's a fitting description. The song, written by Bill Giant, Bernie Baum and Florence Kaye, doesn't have a fast tempo; it sort of slinks along, with a full horn section accompaniment.
I'm not sure how it fits with the film, in which the king plays a newspaper photographer who meets a strange young women with different personalities, because I haven't seen it.
Edge Of Reality is featured on the Live a Little, Love a Little/Charro!/The Trouble With Girls/Change of Habit soundtrack CD, and also on Command Performances - The Essential 60's Masters Vol. II.

I walk along a thin line darling
Dark shadows follow me
Here’s where life’s dream lies disillusioned
The edge of reality
Oh I can hear strange voices echo
Laughing with mockery
The border line of doom I’m facing
The edge of reality
