The Knife
A point's so sharp that it cannot feel
And it has two sides, but which one's real?
The net thrown over and pulled from the school
To wake up in the hands of fools
Should have known better in daylight's burn
That restless depths hold darkened yearns
And hushing words from a silver tongue
Blow restless winds into willing ears
Should have known, living in a storm
You'd act like thunder, and shift your form
The knife, you, the knife, oh
Cut me free, let me go
The knife you, the knife, oh
Cut me deep, and sent me home
A fight or a flash, or a fever escape
And underwater dreamer that took the bait
Could have been the one that slipped from the hook
But you pull me in slow, ever so slowly
Left on the island with nowhere to go
And half my mind in the burning snow
Bur burnouts rarely make good flames
But don't bother playing if you don't know the game
Should have known, living in a storm
You'd act like thunder and shift your form
The knife, you, the knife, oh
Cut me free, let me go
The knife you, the knife, oh
Cut me deep, and sent me home
And the silver words compete with the heat
I can hardly believe you can stand on your feet
Spent all the time twisting up knots
When the smoke clears, you clearly forgot
That I'm not made of metal, and I'm not made of wood
And destined it seems to be misunderstood
Cut through me neatly with your fine blade
And fled so fast when the mess was made
Should have known, living in a storm
You'd act like thunder and shift your form
The knife you, the knife on
Cut me free, let me go
The knife you, the knife on
Cut me deep, send me home
The knife, you, the knife, oh
Cut me free, let me go
The knife you, the knife, oh
Cut me deep, and sent me home
