Knives

I don't understand why you need to push me
And I don't understand why you feel like you can control me
And boy I'd die if I let myself give you the reigns
And boy I lie to get myself out of all this pain

Now I'll never go to you
Spill myself and tell the truth
Oh just don't be surprised
When you feel ostracized

I hate to say it
But baby you wanted to play it

You'll never win the game with blunt knives when we've got guns inside

You don't understand why I would be stepping away
And you don't understand why I don't want to play this game
And I'll still muster all the strength I have left to fight
And I'll still take your hits even when I know it's not right

Don't tell me your heart is frozen when I don't look your way
Don't tell me that you play no part in the things I say
You can't blame me for shooting after you've stabbed me many times
And you can't blame me for acting cold when you've carved out my insides
