(Who’s afraid of) Your knife is the English version of a song which is part of an upcoming EP where the same lyrics will be translated to different languages and become different songs. The vocals are performed by Lars and Anna Lena.
I get under your skin
What shall you do?
What shall you do with your knife?
What shall you do
with your razor sharp little knife?
I get under your 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
I get under your skin
I’m deep within
closer than those you love.
I can touch my heart
that I stop and start
with might like the one above.
You must understand
that I don’t demand
nothing else than to get paid
but I can confess
it’s a bloody mess
and I know that you are afraid
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
I get under your skin
so afraid
so much deeper within
afraid
afraid
so afraid
afraid for my life
