Lyrics
House of Knives
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.
It's hard to keep our lives
Living in the house of knives
How hard will we try?
It's time to fight the blades
We worked so hard to make
Why flirt with our fate?
Please take the time to meet your maker
An architect and part time savior
He has your name,
Never slow to pass blame
You and yourself are this living hell
It's hard to survive
Loving in the house of knives
Believe that we die
For its fear of death,
Taking the living's breath,
We'll kill to protect
Black crow, let go
