Bury the Knife - Outloud

Another empty room, another fading shell

Nothing left to hide

I’m in the light of my lonely cell

Another weeping god, another crying shame

I’ll reap just what I sow

But in the end it’s a fool’s game

I follow you down, you carry me up

Backand forth until we break

It’s always the same, I can’t feel the flame

How much can I take?

All that we’ve cried, so long we tried

How do we last another night

With no religion, no decision

Waiting for a light

Somewhere inside, I’ll be your guide

Now that the stars are shining bright

I stand before you to save another life …

It’s time to bury the knife

Another moment gone, another tale to tell

I took all of these dreams and threw them

in the wishing well

Another fallen star, another bond of gold

The promise still remains

But now it’s only bought and sold

(prechorus & chorus)

These declarations of rage we must end

Shaping our future so undefined

These altercations are far from pretend

Leading the reaper so close behind

And I know, we gotta bury the knife it’s true

But sometimes, I wanna bury the knife in you!

And I can’t close my eyes

When there’s only one thing left to do
