Knives

In time something has gotta give Cover me in the aftermath I Could die trying Peacefully, just tell me peacefully How to change every part of me I keep my knives close to my chest You can't seem to split the difference So tell me what you mean When you said you could Kill me I comply, pacify you Until you fall asleep, forget about it Until you fall asleep, forget about it Like a light you pulled me in With an offer of false protection I Go blind to your projection You got me right where you wanted I'm the house and you're the haunted I don't wanna be consumed by you Exorcise me if you have to So tell me what you mean When you said you could Kill me I comply, pacify you Until you fall asleep, forget about it Until I fall asleep, forget about it
