Razors Edge - Albert Hammond Jr

I’ve been known to cheat

You’ve been 17

There’s a door with an escape hatch

Now you have to go and find it

Well the person that you hired

Works with you now by the hour

Years ran down her face

Left to join the race

As her time got locked in his car

Chased her youth on stools at your bar

Controlled abuse

Some places that we find

A momentary crime

Don’t ask, can’t tell

Led me to believe

That money buys you freaks

The money buys you freaks

The money buys you freaks

I just wanna be

Where the river meets the sea

It’s a chore that comes tomorrow

We all paid the price to borrow

What was free

Well the person that you hired

Works with you now that you’re fired

You would use the hill

To learn that it’s a skill

It’s much easier being holy

When you’re by yourself

She told me with such ease

Don’t ask, can’t tell

You led me to believe

This money buys you freaks

Controlled abuse

Some places that we find

A momentary crime

In silence

Your violence

Is louder than your words

In silence

Your violence

Is louder than your words
