Your knife

Your knife är en del av en pretentiös EP där samma textmaterial på olika språk kommer att bli till ett antal olika låtar. Får vi hoppas. Väntar på insjungning av person med minst två stämband i drift.

What shall you do?
What shall you do with your knife?
What shall you do
with your razor sharp little knife?

You get under my skin
so much deeper within

Deep inside me
when I’m sleeping, when I’m lost
to the world that I want to see again

You get under my skin
you’re deep within
closer than those I love.
You can touch my heart
that you stop and start
with might like the one above.
I have understood
it’s for my own good
but I know that you will get paid 
so I put my trust
because I must
even though I am

afraid
afraid
so afraid
afraid of your knife 
afraid
afraid
so afraid
afraid for my life

I am grateful
that you put your knife in me
to repair me, cut away the broken parts.

I am almost whole
but the hole in my soul
reminds me of what have been.
There are countless stitches
with scars that itch
but the worst ones cannot be seen.
You must do it again
but we don’t know when
you must cut me, to save my life
I am fully aware
that you don’t care
about my nightmares about your

knife.
Afraid
so afraid
afraid of your knife 
afraid
You get under my skin
so afraid
so much deeper within
afraid
afraid
so afraid
afraid for my life
