Unnerved by, the immensities of life
And the pull of, the empty hollow
A stadium of space, creates a strong, undertow
As he stands, beneath, the soulless sky
Stay sharp, stay sharp and stay alive
Stay sharp, stay sharp and stay alive
He stands watching the crowds pass by
A heard of faceless, bodies that he has served
It's like he's watching a TV nature show
And the crowd becomes a shuffing herd of buffalo
Stay sharp, stay sharp and stay alive
Stay sharp, stay sharp and stay alive
So he stands, a brave American hero
But with a famished feeling deep inside
A void where his best parts should lie
Stay sharp, stay sharp, stay alive
And it's the randomness that wears you down
Sometimes as slight as bending to tie your boot
Or turning your head left instead of right
Random how that shit does twist your mind
So it stays inside
Stay sharp, stay sharp, and stay alive
Stay sharp, stay sharp, and stay alive
So he stands, a strong brave American hero
He'll take your praise but you will never know
And he is what you want him to be
A face for your hopes and all your dreams
And the mantra he echoes and repeats
Fits in, but he's thinking of home
Oh but he's thinking of home
Oh but he's thinking of home
Stay sharp, stay sharp, and stay alive
And Stay sharp and stay alive
