Let me tell bout this thing called life
You got to keep your balance right
We are dancing thru the panic
At the edge of a knife
Day and night
Its ready to slice
just another cut
But the dark has come to light
We can now see
Whats always there
A world that is unfair
With death lingering in the air
No time to stop and stare
Take each breath calm with care
Find someplace safe
I dont know where
But be aware
What is so steady and and feels heavy
Blows away like a hair
Stay in your lair
Fill the air with prayer
While on your knees
Remember peace
Has always been rare
Let me tell bout this thing called life
You got to keep your balance right
We are dancing thru the panic
At the edge of a knife
