lyrics

EDGE OF A KNIFE

When we were younger all these streets twisted a maze
ya we'd wander through this ocean town for days

Didn't ever think that everything would change

He built it from the ground with his own hands
the carpenter, the troubadour, the wise man
wore an anchor on his shoulder, a weight he couldn't stand
but he kept it to his chest just like a war plan

Teddy found a way to ease the pain
then he watched them come haul his life away
I think he's living up the street
but I couldn't bare to see his face
man, what would've happened if we stayed

It's hard to get to sleep in this town
where I grew up and learned to keep my head down
This place I took for granted, I couldn't wait to just get out
Now I'm standing here just staring at your house

Are you still living on the edge of knife
Are you still waiting on some pill to make it right
If I asked you would tell me, would you call me in the night
when that darkest cloud is burying your sky
