That Knife

verse
i love the knife that that cut me oh so
many months ago
i fought and burned my thoughts and words
i never could bestow
but at her sight i feared the fight that passion let us go
an find the kind of colder rhyme that
never sleeps alone

chorus
who wants pain in there life
who wants pain every night
who wants misery
that's what you give to me
that's what you give

verse
an so you leave me nothing more than
echo memories
i'm spending all m extra time just trying to
kill these
don't you see i needed you, you and
nothing less
or are you filled with nothing more than
heartless emptiness

chorus

verse
in others eyes without you i'm a trophy
of regret
primed and polished with the spit i can not
yet repent
an though i am among them i can not now
join the crowd
for as they sing your praises I'm mocking
you out loud

chorus

bridge
but in the end who really cares
who wins
who loses
(mocking laughter)
happily ever after--- after-all

an though i know i will get back every thing i lost

[although i know / everything i lost ](echoed)
repeat till end
