Knifes Edge lyrics

Spend forever tryin' to figure it out,

tryin' to find an escape,

working every little hustle you can to try

get an even rate.

You believe in all the promises.

Where are you now?

You're just livin' on the knife edge.

Oh, it somehow don't seem right.

It's a high wire act on the rough time,

survival through the night.

Spend whatever little money you have

just stayin' alive.

Buy the key that unlocks the door, you do

more than survive.

But you listen to 

all the promises (promises).

Where are you now?

You're just livin' on the knife edge.

Oh, it somehow don't seem right.

It's a high wire act on the rough time,

survival through the night.  

Now, nobody said life was gonna be easy

and nobody said it was fair.

I only know there's just one answer,

just put the wind, put the wind in our hair.

You believe in all the promises.

Where are you now?

You're just livin' on the knife edge.

Oh, it somehow don't seem right.

It's a high wire act on the rough time,

survival through the night, 

survival through the night,

survival through the night,

survival,

survival through the night,

survival through the night,

survival.
