"The Blade" lyrics

"The Blade"

I let your love in, I have the scar
I felt the razor against my heart
I thought we were both in all the way
But you caught it by the handle
And I caught it by the blade

You said "goodbye, it's not the end
And if you need me, I'm still your friend"
Well, that's easy for you to say
Cause you caught it by the handle
And I caught it by the blade

That's the risk you run when you love, when you love
And you give it all you've got to give
Knowing all along there's a chance, there's a chance
You'll reach and they won't
You'll bleed and they don't

For you, it's over; for me, it's not
I kept trying and you just stopped
Now I know how you can sound so brave
Cause you caught it by the handle, baby
And I caught it by the blade

That's the risk you run when you love, when you love
And you give it all you've got to give
Knowing all along there's a chance, there's a chance
You'll reach and they won't
You'll bleed and they don't

I thought we were both in all the way
But you caught it by the handle
And I caught it by the blade
You caught it by the handle, baby
And I caught it by the blade
