Walking 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.
You only know life's worth
When you're taken to a place where life means nothing
You only know what hurts
When you dig to a place where the pain stops coming
Some days will give you the ground
Some days will give you the rope
Someone will hand you the poison
Who is it that pours it down your throat
Follow follow
What your gut is telling you or
Swallow swallow
Swallow what they're feeding you
Death is on one side, the other is life
Neither seems bright when you're walking the knife
Follow follow
What your gut is telling you or
Swallow swallow
Swallow what they're feeding you
Looking at both sides, foes or friends
Lighting the candle that burns at both ends
You only know love's weight
When you're carried to a place where acceptance is real
You only put your faith
In the places you know it's truly sincere
Failure's on one side, the other is growth
Neither is a choice when you're beneath the earth
Follow follow
What your gut is telling you or
Swallow swallow
Swallow what they're feeding you
Death is on one side, the other is life
Neither seems bright when you're walking the knife
Follow follow
What your gut is telling you or
Swallow swallow
Swallow what they're feeding you
Looking at both sides, foes or friends
Lighting the candle that burns at both ends
Follow follow
What your gut is telling you or
Swallow swallow
Swallow what they're feeding you
Follow follow
What your gut is telling you or
Swallow swallow
Swallow what they're feeding you
Death is on one side, the other is life
Neither seems bright when you're walking the knife
