Razors Edge

standing on the razors edge
should i jump
should i leave
loose the bonds and break the keys

if i jump
once i cut
will it be seen as true and just

i wont look down
razors too sharp
might come to my senses 
id listen to my heart

i wouldnt talk back
i left heart for a mind
so ill jump into the dark
cause im already blind

almost off the razors edge
been here every week in my thoughts
go to the edge by a simple mistake
found it because i got lost.
