"Thousand Knives" lyrics
I feel like I've been here a thousand times
Wondering where loyalty gets you
Quick to trust, slow to see the signs of betrayal
So you know I got some trust issues
Got me feeling like, feeling like
Everybody around me is a snake
Like everybody standing in your corner
Would rather be standing on you
Pretending they care but hoping that you break
I hate breathing on my best day
My thoughts are like a prison where the pain stays
I'm sick of wishing for a replay
That I know in the end I'd just piss away
I'm watching purpose in my rearview
Trying to tell the story with a tattoo
When the ink is new, I forget the past few
Then every time it dries, I regret the last two
Stab me in the back, I'm doing fine
Made a pretty good life where the devil dines
Just another broken heart at the finish line
At this point I need pain just to feel alive
I got a thousand friends
With nothing but chill words
And knives in their hands now
I'm finally fine again
So I don't see it, I don't see it
I don't see it, I don't think about it
Until the knives are in
A thousand bloody knives in my back again now
Must be that time again
'Cause I don't feel it, I don't feel it
I don't feel it, I'm too used to it
I came up praying from the bottom
Knowing if I ever stopped that
Compromise would be the death of me
Swept away in the current
I was lost, I was hurting
I was looking for a remedy
Sometimes the devil shows up
With the face of a best friend
Disguising bad intentions as a joke
So you never even catch it
'Til the blade goes in
Stab me in the back, I'm doing fine
Made a pretty good life where the Devil dines
Just another broken heart at the finish line
At this point I'd have to die just to feel alive
I got a thousand friends
With nothing but chill words
And knives in their hands now
I'm finally fine again
So I don't see it, I don't see it
I don't see it, I don't think about it
Until the knives are in
A thousand bloody knives in my back again now
Must be that time again
'Cause I don't feel it, I don't feel it
I don't feel it, I'm too used to it
Through every little bit I learned some
I kept a couple bridges and I burned some
Through every little scar
I put the pain of your betrayal on display
Through every little bit I learned some
Put out a couple flames and I earned some
Through every deep cut
I'll leave the sign of my survival on your blade
I got a thousand friends
With nothing but chill words
And knives in their hands now
I'm finally fine again
So I don't see it, I don't see it
I don't see it, I don't think about it
Until the knives are in
A thousand bloody knives in my back again now
Must be that time again
'Cause I don't feel it, I don't feel it
I don't feel it, I'm too used to it
I feel like I've been here a thousand times
Wondering where loyalty gets you
Quick to trust, slow to see the signs of betrayal
So you know I got some trust issues
It got me feeling like, feeling like
Everybody around me is a snake
Like everybody standing in your corner
Would rather be standing on you
Pretending they care but hoping that you break
Wondering where loyalty gets you
Quick to trust, slow to see the signs of betrayal
So you know I got some trust issues
Got me feeling like, feeling like
Everybody around me is a snake
Like everybody standing in your corner
Would rather be standing on you
Pretending they care but hoping that you break
I hate breathing on my best day
My thoughts are like a prison where the pain stays
I'm sick of wishing for a replay
That I know in the end I'd just piss away
I'm watching purpose in my rearview
Trying to tell the story with a tattoo
When the ink is new, I forget the past few
Then every time it dries, I regret the last two
Stab me in the back, I'm doing fine
Made a pretty good life where the devil dines
Just another broken heart at the finish line
At this point I need pain just to feel alive
I got a thousand friends
With nothing but chill words
And knives in their hands now
I'm finally fine again
So I don't see it, I don't see it
I don't see it, I don't think about it
