The Knife Lyrics

One night you got into my head
With a cold bright fear that stroke me dead
And your body lay heavy on our bed
With yours 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 dust

So 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 around 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 me, I will the color from my face
This is all a pay for my mistakes
Old things wither then break
So 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 around 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'll hold your hand tonight
Did you work so hard to keep her?
Did you try so hard despite?
Was it hard cold heart that freed her?
Come home song, tight
So 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 around the shadow of the knife?
So love, have you lost her?
Does it turn you up inside?

Does it turn you up inside?
