From the recording Light At My Window
Lyrics
RAZOR'S EDGE
There’s a hot wind blowing ‘cross the sky tonight
I’ve been walking on the razor’s edge
My feet are bleeding and my heart’s on fire
Was a time this pain would feed me
Stoke my heart then just bleed me dry
And I would cry out
Take me down to the water’s edge
Wash me clean in the water’s now
Show me how to walk this thin line
Show me how to lay my burdens down
By the waterside
Lay them down…
It’s not easy in these troubled times
There is darkness sitting in the seats of power
They’re red lies are falling all around us
Was a time when we believed our leaders
Trusted them to feed not bleed us dry
Hear us cry now and
Take us down to the water’s edge
Wash us clean in the water’s now
Show us how to walk this thin line
Show us how to lay our burdens down
By the waterside
Lay them down
I could use a little help just now
My heart is weary and my head’s on fire
My mind’s been running round in circles
Was a time I thought I knew it all
Everything was under my control
And then I cried out
Take me down to the water’s edge
Wash me clean in the water’s now
Show me how to walk this thin line
Show me how to lay my burdens down
By the waterside
Lay them down
There’s a hot wind blowing ‘cross the sky tonight
I’ve been walking on the razor’s edge
