The Defense Lyrics

i believe the (?) you're referring to is "no plan"

also i dont think he's saying it isn't beautiful to be alive, he's mocking everyone for not appreciating what we have.

also, the song as a whole i think he really typical in content for bad religion, not in a bad way though. he's bsaically saying how easy it is to br driven crazy by our surroundings

"we trace the mortal edge with no defense" that line is great lyric. its open for interpretation too. i mean i guess the "mortal edge" would be death obviously. and with no defense meaning theres nothing we can do to escape death. i don't no waht he means by "tracing" death with no defense though. anyone?
