When life becomes meaningless
No matter what you got seems useless
And all opportunities you grasp evade
Dragging out all the dreams to fade
Everything you hold on seems to fall
Making you feel broken against the wall
Realizing that life is at the cutting edge.
When life becomes the darkest
Nowhere to find light from the furthest
And things you touch soon are dead
Threat of failure always cling to you instead
Even how you try to survive from uncertainties
Yet your ego still succumbs to all vanities
Doubts engulf your self at the cutting edge.
Though life becomes vague
Do not give up fight the plague
For quitters do not win any endeavor
Hang to your will, lit the ember to your favor
For as long as you have the courage to go forward
Then no amount of deterrent can make you a coward
And in the end you will be able to override the cutting edge.
