CRISTINA BIRKEL lyrics : "The Knife"

Save your breath
you're full of %#@!
I don't believe you anymore

I know I said
I won't give up
Now all our words are shattered on the floor


I can't get through
if you won't let me in

Even God can't save me
if I'm not listening


You cut me open
You're still complaining
that I continue to bleed on your life

you said you loved me
I dared to listen
so I was shocked when you pulled a knife


It took me until now
I left anyhow

Exactly how you wanted this to die
I tried for months
to be the one

I let you fool me a hundred times

Because you were her

you were the girl I'd been looking for
I couldn't have known looks can be deceiving
but now I'm wiser than before


I can't get through
if you won't let me in

Even God can't save me
if I'm not listening


You cut me open
You're still complaining
that I continue to bleed on your life

but you told me your fears
I didn't listen
So maybe I walked into your knife


She cut you open
I'm still complaining

That I can't make you fell all right
But I'm not helpless
I'll heal my own flesh

And I'll refuse to carry the knife

She used to cut you open

You used to cut me open

(meanwhile, rap)

There is nothing you can say
I commit to turn away
I had left it up to you but

starting now it's up to me
I still wish that you had stayed
I still think about the days

the nights the look in your eyes your touch
I've never really wanted anything so much
You inspired me, I've never been so healthy

And as you broke my heart,
I got back my humanity
I never thought

I'd outgrow
"spirituality"


so you can save your breath
I may not be over it
but poison on a blade takes shape in broken promises

and I might have seen how this would end, but I was busy climbing fences
blinded by a glint of steel, your eyes or your defenses
