Lyrics
(Edge of the blade)
Time to break through the anger
Look for the remains of the everlasting me
Incinerating hands that touched your graceful face
In the mysterious ways
These scorching scars are last the everlasting visual drains
Never minding, and rewinding
(Edge of the blade)
Time to break through the anger
Look for the remains of the everlasting me
Cherish your hunger for resentment and dismay
And then come out to play
Cascading colors, meticulously I’ll wash away
Time for choosing, not for losing
Defying the fire, reviving within
Time to break through, your walls are soaring high
They are disarranging the surface
And we’re tripping on our own lies
(Edge of the blade)
Time to break through the anger
Look for the remains of the everlasting me
Your wish for virtual perfection seems in vain
It’s trying to evolve
Your paragon possessed you in a self to [???]
No more waiting, no depending
Defying the fire, reviving within
Time to break through, your walls are soaring high
They are disarranging the surface
And we’re tripping in our own lie
Ooooh
Don’t throw your life away
Ooooh
You know the sin
Watch your back, you know the heat
Look for the world one more time
And now can’t you see with open eyes
All of us are incomplete
It’s time to break through, your walls are soaring high
You can even try to break through
A perfect state of mind
And now you break through, you reach beyond the sky
You should never ever burn out
The surface is made of light
(Edge of the blade)
Time to break through the anger
Look for the remains of the everlasting me
Trivia
“I’m singing about self-acceptance and about not concentrating too much on the unimportant things in life. You have to nurture your soul and not focus on being perfect because who defines perfection anyway ? A lot of people are obsessed with looks these days but if someone has a good heart, that will always come through. Edge of the Blade is another way of saying “the tip of the iceberg” ; it’s very dangerous to get too wrapped up in unimportant things.” – Simone Simons
