I Gave You the Knife Lyrics

I wanted to be what you wanted to find

I wanted to be part of your real life

I am imperfect and I want to live

So I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I would not blind you to make myself see

'Cause I cannot find you if you can't find me

Now you have chased me up into a tree

Now you have chased me up into a tree

Now you have chased me up into a tree

'Cause I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

And I took your word, like a truth you told

And I opened my door to let you in from the cold

And as I took your coat, and I took my time

I took it to mean that you would realize, that

I tried to give you what I thought was best

'Cause I thought that you were not like all the rest

Now there's a sinking inside of my chest

Now there's a sinking inside of my chest

Now there's a sinking inside of my chest

Now there's a sinking inside of my chest

Now there's a sinking inside of my chest

'Cause I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife

I gave you the knife
