Lyrics Like a Knife - Meadowlark

Like a Knife

It cut through me like a knife but it’s life
And what am I supposed to do?
'Cause when you took away my eyes, I was blind
And didn’t see it coming through
And all of the lies you said all the time
Did they mean a thing to you?
'Cause I’m paralyzed
It cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
It cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
You think you’ve got it all, build your walls
Higher than the walls before
But they’ve got packets full of coal, they say it’s gold
But they’re the poorest of them all
And all of the lies you said all the time
Did they mean a thing to you?
'Cause I’m paralyzed
It cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
It cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
I can’t remember the last time I felt like you
It cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
And you can try to tear us down
But you’re never gonna take away our loudest song
We’ll build a choir for the tired and the silent poise
You took away your holy water and all our bricks and mortar
You lied, yeah you lied, yeah you lied
You lied, yeah you lied, yeah you lied
It cut through me like a knife but it’s life
And what am I supposed to do?
'Cause when you took away our eyes, we were blind
And didn’t see it coming through
It cut through my like a knife
(I can’t remember the last time I felt like you)
Cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
It cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
It cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
Cut through my like a knife
