Sharp Edges
Mama always told me don’t you runDon’t you run with scissors, sonYou’re gonna hurt someoneMama told me look before you leapAlways think before you speak, and watch the friends you keep
Stay along the beaten path, never listened when she said
Sharp edges have consequencesI guess that I had to find out for myselfSharp edges have consequencesNow every scar is a story I can tell
Should’ve played it safer from the startLoved you like a house of cardsLet it fall apartBut all the things I couldn’t understandNever could’ve plannedThey made me who I am
Put your nose on paperbacksInstead of smoking cigarettesThese are years you’re never getting back
Stay along the beaten path, never listened when she said
Sharp edges have consequencesI guess that I had to find out for myselfSharp edges have consequencesNow every scar is a story I can tell
We all fall downWe live somehowWe learn what doesn’t kill us makes us strongerWe all fall downWe live somehowWe learn what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger
