Never callin', unanswered letters,

how you been, feelin' better?

Never lookin', but you're hearin',

never speakin', but you're feeling

All the silence, and it's wounding,

you're not healing, just concealing

Play the game, play the game

Oh brother to brother, all the blood runs red

Don't roll over, don't play dead

We're all livin' on the razor's edge

Oh brother to brother, all the blood runs ruby red

We're all victims of the razor's edge

All the rules don't mean a thing,

they're wasting time,

the mem'ries sting

Keep your image, plant that smile,

answer questions, don't let on

Make up stories all put on,

that's your life, oh,

your life is gone

Oh brother to brother, all the blood runs red

Don't roll over, don't play dead

We're all livin' on the razor's edge

You see you're losing, yet you still try

The game just a'watches your life go by

You're playin' well,

you're playin' - why?

Oh, play the game

You see you're losing, yet you still try

The game just a'watches your life go by

You're playin' well,

oh you're playin' the game

Oh brother to brother, all the blood runs red

Don't roll over, don't play dead

We're all livin' on the razor's edge
