Against The Knife

You see me every day

You pass me on the street

Sometimes you look away

Sometimes you frown at me

I’m reaching out my hand to you

As if for life

I’m shakin’ in my worn-out shoes

Against the knife 

I’m Homeless, I’m the poor

I’m easy to ignore

I’m where, but for the grace of God

Goes everyone

So say a little prayer for me

I’ll pray for you

I’m reaching out my hand to you

As if for life

I’m shakin’ in my worn-out shoes

Against the knife

Against the knife!

I’m living on the edge

Of your periphery

I’m wretched and obscure

But I’m humanity

I’m reaching out my hand to you

As if for life

I’m shakin’ in my worn-out shoes

Against the knife

You see me every day

You pass me on the street

Sometimes you look away

Sometimes you frown at me

I’m reaching out my hand to you

As if for life

I’m shakin’ in my worn-out shoes

Against the knife

Against the knife!

I’m reaching out my hand to you

As if for life

I’m shakin’ in my worn-out shoes

Against the knife

Against the knife!
