Edge of Everything

He who broods is the sorriest fuck
Running out the clock
Given up before it’s even begun
Comes at no shock
Anticipation of what’ll be exposed
Beyond control
Limbs have grown stiff from winter’s hold
Blanketed by snow
You’ve been abused
Soon you’ll face the truth
Abused, abused
Memories subdued
When you’ve been abused, abused
She who remains resilient and brave
Endured it for her days
Felt like a foreigner inside of her home
Now you’re all alone
Face to face with your indecision
Pulling at your strings
The crowd stays glued to the edge of their seats
Witness everything
You’ve been abused, abused
Soon you’ll face the truth
Abused, abused
Memories subdued
All through the years, set it ablaze
Lighting the fuse
We who stood back and merely observed
Never said a word
