THE KNIFE IN MY BACK

I'm slowly learning
That the things you promised me
Are burning like the embers
Of a thousand willow trees
And every single secret
Has been broadcast like TV
Now all the threads are severed
That were tying you to me

I thought we were friends
But now we're enemies
I thought we were friends
But now we're enemies

Pull your knife out of my back
Your blood runs black
I was just surprised at how you turned on me so fast
I let you in
I held you close
My blood flows like a river 'cause I trusted you the most
And now I know it's over

And now I know it's over
And now I know it's over
And now I know it's over

I was so naive
I even let you in my home
Took you out for dinner and let you wear my clothes
I can't even breathe
I have your scent still in my nose
It's like I almost miss you
I should have known

I thought we were friends
But now we're enemies
I thought we were friends
But now we're enemies

Pull your knife out of my back
Your blood runs black
I was just surprised at how you turned on me so fast
I let you in
I held you close
My blood flows like a river 'cause I trusted you the most
And now I know it's over

And now I know it's over
And now I know it's over
And now I know it's over

I thought we were friends
But now we're enemies
I thought we were friends
But now we're enemies

Pull your knife out of my back
Your blood runs black
I was just surprised at how you turned on me so fast
I let you in
I held you close
My blood flows like a river 'cause I trusted you the most
And now I know it's over

And now I know it's over
And now I know it's over
And now I know it's over
