Swinging Lovers - No Knife

Difficult to hope for more, is this what you call a weapon?

(I damage myself just for you)

Offered up to strangers but I could’ve forgiven you anything

I’ve arranged these chains like a work of art

But nobody gets it so far

All they see is the old scar

I’m pulling it back to cut some more

Oh, but this is madness

It suggests what I’ve become

Oh, but this is madness

We forget but we can’t move on

Forward til we catch you all and sickened when the chase is done

(I damaged myself just for you)

With lipstick and a pretty face

Dancing on spider’s legs my love

I’ve arranged this shame like a broken heart but nobody gets it so far

All they see is the old scar so I’m pulling it back to cut some more

Spotlight for the bursting star exploding in my outstretched arms

Hollywood death is not the same
