On the Edge

Imma lose my head, Cause everyone I know has a complaint, The have a reason to invade personal space, And now my nerves are on edge. Don't shove my shoulders, Don't try to get in my mind, My arms are not big enough to hold a boulder, Because maybe I'm not as strong as your kind. I mean look at the world. There is more than just you. Send a message to the lord, To those who need help more than you. There is always a child, Or a woman, Or person, Or an animal, On the edge of death. Craziness is filling my soul. I know that there is more than just me, But sometimes I got to focus on myself. Let me be a tree. I mean look at the world. There is more than just you. Send a message to the lord, To those who need help more than you. There is always a child, Or a woman, Or person, Or an animal, On the edge of death. Let it be, Let it be, Let it be, Let it be. Whisper words of wisdom, Let it be.
