Keep Your Edge

when you give your all, miss your chance, lose your mind

if you break your heart, cut your loss, waste your time

as you fight yourself, slash your hopes, grieve your life

clear your thoughts, get a grip...and keep your edge

that spark you feel at the limit of what you see

let it be a guide in times of need

resolve from within

there's only so much I can endure

if you wait for a break

for the kindness of fate

life will be relentless along the way

and if it's all I have then I start with that as I crawl my way back

it's what I grasp when I have nothing left to give

against my will life can have its fill but I'll keep my edge

I hold my head above as I sink below everything I know

I hold my head above as I sink below

nothing will make me let go

let the world bathe in pain for even when I lose all hope

I'll still keep...I'll still keep...

keep your edge
