Salakos (Greek: Σάλακος) is a village of 350 people on the west side of Rhodes Island. It is 40 km from the capital Rhodes town and 7km from the North West coast. The village is located on the hills of Mount Prophitis Ilias. Inhabitants are mainly employed in farming, livestock rearing and tourism. The village is located next to a natural spring named Nymph, which is a mythological deity that protected the spring. There is one tourist hotel in the village (ironically also named Nymph), and several restaurants that cater to passing foreign tourist trade and in the summer months many people work in tourist hotels elsewhere. The village is famous for its walnuts, numerous sightseeing walks and its stone-paved and shady square, with fresh spring running water and fig trees.

Up close to the edge
I wanna fall all the way down
Up close to the edge
Open my eyes
Walk straight ahead
I wanna fall
All the way down
I'm gonna run
When I hit the ground
Do you feel for me what I feel for you
Now you're turning on this electricity
Running through my veins, pulse begins to race
Come and satisy my curiosity
Keep imagining what it would be like
Got the power to make this reality
You're so close to me, almost taste your lips
Flying high, can't you feel it's intensity
Only one way to go when you're on the outside looking in
Tell me what I need know
Don't recognise my own reflection when I'm in this state of mind
Up close to the edge
Open my eyes
Walk straight ahead
I wanna fall
All the way down
I'm gonna run
When I hit the ground
You're taking me close to the edge
Open my eyes walk straight ahead
I wanna fall all the way down
I'm gonna run when I hit the ground
I'm close to the edge....
I wanna fall all the way down....
I'im close to the edge.....
I wanna fall all the way down....
Are you reading me like im reading you
Are we transmitting on a new frequency
Hear it loud and clear
Message understood
Chain reaction coz we've got a chemistry
Now I'm standing here with my world below
Body's shaking is this how it's meant to be?
But I'm not afraid coz I'm not alone
