Lyrics

Dagger

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

So beautiful, but equally lethal

So magical, and at the same time painful

No time to react, no, cause it happened so fast

Can't change the future if it's left in the past

I couldn't see it coming, I never jumped the gun

I'm caught up in the moment, I guess it wasn't love

Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?

Stuck around when I should have ran

But I can't blame you, I did it to myself

Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?

Tell me, how did I come to this end?

I did it to myself when I gave you the dagger

Gave you the dagger

I'm watching you walk away, but I can't follow

And I got words to say, but they don't seem so hollow

Left here on the ground and my body feels so cold

Now I know that you're a killer, but the story goes untold

I couldn't see it coming, I never jumped the gun

I'm caught up in the moment, I guess it wasn't love

Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?

Stuck around when I should have ran

But I can't blame you, I did it to myself

Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?

Tell me, how did I come to this end?

I did it to myself when I gave you the dagger

Gave you the dagger

By trusting you, I went from queen to fool

I gave you all my heart and gave you the weapon too

And by loving you, I gave you the perfect tool

To stab me in my heart, with my last words, I said

Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?

Stuck around when I should have ran

But I can't blame you, I did it to myself

Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?

Tell me, how did I come to this end?

I did it to myself

And I said, damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?

Stuck around when I should have ran

But I can't blame you, I did it to myself

Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?

Tell me, how did I come to this end?

I did it to myself when I gave you the dagger

Gave you the dagger
