All The Way To The Ground
Love of my life, you are closed off and cold
your passivity and emotionlessness is the coldest pain that I have ever felt
I gotta turn away cause I can't carry us
I realized, 'Who's gonna save me?'
You can't carry me, and that's reality
Love of my life, you stabbed me with a knife
right in my back while I was dreaming
lying all open and vulnerable before you
You stabbed me with your knife
not in the world, but everyone sees it
I know the world thinks it's not a crime
but a knife's a knife, don't you think?
when you cut me, you cut me all the way to the ground
Where is your heart? Where is the block?
where is your love if you just gave it?
not too long ago, I had it all
You stabbed me with your knife
not in the world, but everyone sees it
I know the world thinks it's not a crime
but a knife's a knife, don't you think?
when you cut me, you cut me all the way to the ground
I thought I can fight it, but maybe I can't
I thought I can fix it, but maybe I can't
I thought it's my fault, but baby, it's fate
You stabbed me with your knife
not in the world, but everyone sees it
I know the world thinks it's not a crime
but a knife's a knife, don't you think?
when you cut me, you cut me all the way
when you cut me, you cut me all the way to the ground
