I’ve calculated the distance From my steady hand to your heart And I honed the blade on my anger Now I stand behind you in the dark
You’re breathing in And breathing out For one last time
‘Cause I won’t lie No I won’t lie For you anymore
So turn around friend and face me Don’t tell me now you’re surprised Your lovers all will desert you Let me ease that pain with this knife
You’re breathing in And breathing out For one last time
‘Cause I won’t lie No I won’t lie for you And I know I’m born with a prophet’s curse Never see the good, only see the worst But in time the snake will split his skin To reveal another snake within
You’re breathing in And breathing out For the final last time
And I know I’m born with a prophet’s curse Never see the good, only see the worst But in time the snake will split his skin to reveal another snake within
