The Knife
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.
Desire
His mind was torn up with desire
His mind was torn up with desire
He didn't even know
He transpires
His face was caught up in a fire
His face was burned in the fire
He still didn't know
They gave the knife to our fathers
Disguise, transform and outburst
They gave the knife to our fathers
To save your sons and daughters
The rise
A media parade in disguise
A media parade in disguise
Will we ever leave?
A different mice
Of the knife sent here to inspire
The knife sent here to inspire
Still we never learn
They gave the knife to our fathers
Disguise, transform and outburst
They gave the knife to our fathers
To save your sons and daughters
Please
Breathe deep
So I wouldn't lose my friends (we'll ride back in and set them all to fire!)
We stole the knife from our fathers
To save our sons and daughters
Hey hey hey! (listen up)
