The Edge

Lyrics by me and music by you know who. The Edge - Withering sometimes gracefully, sometimes confused and all alone. Displaced inside an institution, a coffin they call home. Differing facial expressions mask what's, deep inside their skull. Many once were sharp, but here they've grown dull. (Chorus) Please remember that all is not lost my dear, because as long as your blood flows, you can smile in the sunlight and still appreciate a rose. Eagerly walk down the graveyard's hallway, maybe you'll meet someone and say "Hi." You hide that your lonely and that you really want to cry. God, can you see my beauty, has it gone away? My face is steadily wilting, with each precious day. Some have family that visit regularly, while most it seems, don't. I'm a member of the latter, my heartbreaks because they won't. So old person go to the courtyard and feed the pigeons, maybe even a squirrel. Nature can be your companion and remind you of your place within this world. Please remember that all is not lost my dear, because as long as your blood flows, you can smile in the sunlight and still appreciate a rose.
