Words Like Knives - Vaboh

Your words are like knives They peel my skin and pierce my soul... Your body will burn tonight... Though your heart may still remain cold And I will blame myself And I will blame myself For holding on to what I hoped would keep you by my side I will blame myself The Sheets are stained with... Memories of your soft kiss Now this is all I have Paper and pen to remember you with And I will blame myself And I will blame myself For holding on to what I hoped would keep you by my side I will blame myself Can I have you... [x4]

Runnin' out of good excuses Yeah, I know we got no reason not to do this But I'm scared to be scared and afraid to show it But who said love has to be heroic? I'm no Superman, but I'll do all I can I'll do everything for you Whatever you might want me to How could it be that hard? You and me, a perfect picket fence A cute dog and a pretty backyard Don't know why I've tried to run so far 'Cause, how could a love like that be so hard? Why do I always try to call it the last goodbye When we both know I'll be calling tomorrow? Why do I run the risk of ruining all the things we've made? Maybe I'm just afraid, maybe I'm not so brave I'm no Superman, but I'll do all I can I'll do everything for you Whatever you might want me to How could it be that hard? You and me, a perfect picket fence A cute dog and a pretty backyard Don't know why I've tried to run so far 'Cause, how could a love like that be so hard? It probably isn't, who am I kidding? It probably isn't, what have I been missing? Falling to your rhythm while we're dancing in the kitchen Don't know why I've tried to run so far, so far 'Cause, how could a love like that be so hard? 'Cause, how could a love like that be so hard?

I want you to know He's not coming back Look into my eyes I'm not coming back So knives out Catch the mouse Don't look down Shove it in your mouth If you'd been a dog They would've drowned you at birth Look into my eyes It's the only way you'll know I'm telling the truth So knives out Cook him up Squash his head Put him in the pot I want you to know He's not coming back He's bloated and frozen Still there's no point in letting it go to waste So knives out Catch the mouse Squash his head Put him in the pot

I'm holding my breath, holding so tight Nothing is wrong, nothing is right I'm in the dark, looking for light Won't someone please save my life? Inside, I'm a mess, but I don't let it show I'm just hanging on, but you'd never know I smile all day, and cry through the night Won't someone please save my life is fleeting Dull knives taking my life A slow burn fire from the inside Dull knives twisting my spine They're taking their time, time 'Til I lose my mind A smoldering flame, deep in my heart Barely a sign, it's barely a spark Holding on through, every night Won't someone please save my life? I'm crying for help, it's such a cliché Invisible pain, it's filling each day I open my mouth and feed you a lie Won't someone please save my life is fleeting No repeating Dull knives taking my life A slow burn fire from the inside Dull knives twisting my spine They're taking their time, time 'Til I lose my mind Dull knives Ripping from the inside Spare me the ride From the inside Dull knives twisting my spine And they're taking their time, time 'Til I lose my mind Dull knives

Let the madness begin Living with snakes, feeding the hate, kill or betrayal Shedding the skin, bitter within, cower with shame Venomous tongue back in the lungs, kissing the pain Kissing the pain, with constant pushing, provoking reactions Bring out the knives to cut and divide Another scar for memories Bring out the knives to cut and divide Let 'em breathe, watch 'em burn in the fire Digging a hole, bury the trust, lay it to rest Swallow the dirt, breathe in the dust, savour the taste Hammer the nails, nothing to say, walking away Walking away, from constant screaming, provoking this madness Bring out the knives to cut and divide Another scar for memories Bring out the knives to cut and divide Let 'em breathe, watch 'em burn in the fire Bring out the knives to cut and divide Another scar for memories Bring out the knives to cut and divide Let 'em breathe, watch 'em burn in the fire You keep on digging your own graves And you just focus on the pain Oh! So keep on digging your own graves I see the panic, it's sickening You're not a saint, not a slave Now just focus on the pain I hear the voices, they're calling To sever, forever, insanity You're not a saint, you're a slave Breaking apart, torn at the seams, sanity fails Tread by the edge, pushed into hell, never again Never again, constant pushing, provoking reactions Bring out the knives to cut and divide Another scar for memories Bring out the knives to cut and divide Let 'em breathe, watch 'em burn in the fire Bring out the knives to cut and divide Another scar for memories Bring out the knives to cut and divide Let 'em breathe, let 'em burn Bring out the knives Just swallow the dirt And breathe in the dust Now savour the days No walking away No walking away Bring out the knives
