the knife Lyrics

I can't remember

A time before now

The chill of December

The thrumming of a snow plow

The light did bear over

The morning's glittering array

Of animals and poor rovers

For here they must stay

A strange feeling overtakes them

Suffocating them all

And to the darkness below

Condemned, condemned, condemned

I never heard the cackle of a raven

Never saw their patterns of flight

For they may never find haven

In the night, cold night

Until a kind martyr

Freed us from what loomed

Unholy waters

The future mistuned

And dark untrodden paths

We're all we could walk upon

My shoe soles are solid black

So long, so long, so long

A man stands 'round the corner

A chipped tooth, a silhouette

Grasping the knife that tore her

From a life that didn't mean shit

The cold will conceal

All that finds itself nice

All that remains revealed

All that can't be quenched

Now that I'm drenched with water

From the lips of silver spouts

That curl around and enclose the

Weary cries and uneven shouts

And I'm spinning around

Feet aren't touching the ground

Everything's fucked anyhow

Everything's fucked anyhow
