The Knife Lyrics

One night you got into my head
With the cold bright fear that stroke me dead
And your body lay heavy in our bed
With those blood stained tears on your chest
Our love is never what it was
Never bold enough to carry us,
In the beginning I wanted you so much
Fire then dirt, then dustSo love, would you save her
Is she everything you bet upon your life?
So love, did you need her
Is it all because you fell against the knife
And now, can you hold her
Do you see her in the shadow of the knife
So love, have you lost her,
Does it turn you up inside?One day, I'll sleep and never wake
And they outtake the color from my face
This is all a pay for my mistakes,
Old things wither then drinkSo love, would you save her

Is she everything you bet upon your life?
So love, did you need her
Is it all because you fell against the knife
And now, can you hold her
Do you see her in the shadow of the knife
So love, have you lost her,
Does it turn you up inside?Will I hold your hand tonight
And how I'd hold your hand tonight
Did you work so hard to keep her
Did you try so hard despite?
Was it her cold heart that freed her?
Come on home, song, tightSo love, would you save her
Is she everything you bet upon your life?
So love, did you need her
Is it all because you fell against the knife?
And now, can you hold her
Do you see her in the shadow of the knife
So love, have you lost her,
Does it turn you up inside?
Does it turn you up inside?
