knife Lyrics

Throw some clothes on, look at me closely

As the sunlines slice your eye

I wake up

Throw pajamas on and

Breathe in the silver sky

And I rearrange

And I disengage

And I turn the page

And I burn the sage

And I find the light

And I toss the match

And I help you grow

I'll lift the sails

And I'll spread my wings

And I'll fill the pails

And I'll count the rings

And I'll dig with nails

And I'll find you here

And I'll bring you home

Pain focus

Pain focus

Don't lose my love

Feign hopeless

Feign hopeless

The door slams shut

Cars outside

Carry me into the day

Like a resined bow

Your car speakers

Pop and fizzle like a

String tuned so tight it explodes

And I'll fight the lies

And I'll bind the ties

And I'll kill the lights

And I'll make it right

And I'll dry your eyes

And I'll win the fight

And I'll do these chores

I'll make it work

And I'll do the dirt

And I'll heal the hurt

And I'll feel your words

And they'll kill me dead

And I'll rise back up

And I'll come right back for more

Pain focus

Pain focus

Don't lose my love

Feign hopeless

Feign hopeless

The door slams shut

Cain, Joseph
