lyrics

standing in line up against the wall
waiting for someone to call
to call my name and ask me why
why have I chosen to die?
well I don't know why, I just didn't think
when the pain inside began to sink
of all the good things I had in this life
I never understood the heart and the knife

the heart, the knife

what a perfect place for the blade to reside
the hole in my heart, the place I would hide
I'd hide what I'd build up, I'd hide my fears
I'd turn my back, I'd dry the tears
I'd put on a mask, so I couldn't breathe
and so you wouldn't see the true side of me
a faceless face, a shrouded heart
buried truth in lies, made me fall apart

the heart, the knife

well I don't know why I was so goddamn cruel
I could see it in your eyes, you knew that I was a fool
a fool who played god with his own damn life
I just didn't understand the heart and the knife
