The Knife Songtext
von Does It Offend You, Yeah?

Desire, his mind was torn up with desire
His mind was torn up with desire
He didn′t even know
It transpires, his face was caught up in a fire
His face was caught up in a fire
He still didn't know

They gave the lives to our fathers
Disguised as bones and letters
They gave the lives to our fathers
To save our sons and daughters


Paradise, a media parade of disguise
A media parade of disguise
We never learned
And the demise of the nights they′re here to inspire
The nights they're here to inspire
Still, we never learned

They gave the lives to our fathers
Disguised as bones and letters
They gave the lives to our fathers
To save our sons and daughters

Please breathe deep
Some lose life friends
We'll ride back in and send them all to

We stole the lives from our fathers
To save our sons and daughters
