Like a Knife Songtext
von Secondhand Serenade

I dream a lot, I know you say
I′ve got to get away
The world is not yours
For the taking is all you ever say

I know I'm not the best for you
But promise that you′ll stay
'Cause if I watch you go
You'll see me wasting
You′ll see me wasting away

′Cause today
You walked out of my life
'Cause today
Your words felt like a knife
I′m not living this life

Goodbyes are meant for lonely people
Standing in the rain
And no matter where I go
It's always pouring all the same


These streets are filled with memories
Both perfect and in pain
And all I wanna do is love you
But I′m the only one to blame

And 'cause today
You walked out of my life
′Cause today
Your words felt like a knife
I'm not living this life

But what do I know, if you're leaving
All you did was stop the bleeding
But these scars will stay forever
These scars will stay forever

And these words they have no meaning
If we cannot find the feeling
That we held on to together
Try your hardest to remember

Stay with me
Or watch me bleed
I need you just to breathe


′Cause today (stay with me)
You walked out of my life (or watch me bleed)
′Cause today (I need you)
Your words felt like a knife (just to breathe)
I'm not living this life
