Smile and a Knife
Soft, silent whispers thread the air
With silver, glistening strings
They bind the mind; they bind your limbs
They twist, distort your thoughts again
Thought I knew then, know I didn't now
The things I lied to you about
Kiss me once again.
I saw your face in my dreams
Never imagined you were real
You are the most beautiful thing
A shining sun in my world of darkness.
I would tear out my heart and give it to you.
I would rip out my heart and feed it to you.
For you give me the power
You give me the means
I gave you my all
I gave you everything.
Hate you though I need you
You're the last thing that I wanted
And the first thing that came back to me.
You are my perfect drug.
You are my perfect drug.
Every cell in my blood is addicted
To the feel of your skin
To the taste of your tears.
To your hair that glows like a river of darkness
To your eyes that shine like a dragonfly's wings.
You reach for me
And cut open my hand
You laugh for me
Since I can't understand
I'm hypnotized by your wine red lips
Can't turn away from the blade in your hand.
Smile and a knife
Smile and a knife
You taint my soul with the look in your eyes
You take my body, my heart, my mind
And you warp me with your clever lies
Smile and a knife.
Smile and a knife.
Smile and a knife.
