Knife Words
I try to explain hot things that happen
Like well-placed knife words into the backs of harmless children
This does little to change public opinion
That we'll all be kept from falling out of our safety nets
Just want to make sure I mention that
And if there's something else I've left out
Speak shallow thoughts
But do it quickly before I cut you off
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I try to contain cold things that happen
Like force-fed spoon words into the mouths of grown-up children
This does nothing to change public oblivion
That we'll all be kept from falling out of our safety nets
Just want to make sure I mention that
And if there's something else I've left out
Speak shallow thoughts
Before I cut you off
Before I cut you out
Before I cut you up
Before I cut you down
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Like well-placed knife words into the backs of harmless children
This does little to change public opinion
That we'll all be kept from falling out of our safety nets
Just want to make sure I mention that
And if there's something else I've left out
Speak shallow thoughts
But do it quickly before I cut you off
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I try to contain cold things that happen
Like force-fed spoon words into the mouths of grown-up children
This does nothing to change public oblivion
That we'll all be kept from falling out of our safety nets
Just want to make sure I mention that
And if there's something else I've left out
Speak shallow thoughts
Before I cut you off
Before I cut you out
Before I cut you up
Before I cut you down
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
I am sorry, this is just how I can be
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
