"The Knife" lyrics

I'm living with a knife in my side
I'm gonna take it for a joy ride
You left when you gave it
What criminal trading
A sorry curse

And they're daring me to pull it out
I'll probably keep it for a lifetime
I'll probably name it
Then care for and claim it
That's how it works

When you go ruin my life
In the worst way right at the wrong time
When I'd have followed you blind
And then I'll go out of my mind
Shifting my weight over the cliff side
Taking my chances, rolling the dice
This should be the last time

Should be the last time
Should be the last time
Should be the last time

And now I'm living with the ghost of you
Like you're riding shotgun on my long drives
It's your destination, your radio station
Your song rehearsed

They're daring me to kick you out
I'll, I'll probably feel you till I die
But I'll never face you or ever replace you
It doesn't work

'Cause you go ruin my life
Flatten my days and wrecking my nights
I'll be here doing my time
I'll go out of my mind
Banging my cage and crossing the line
I'll never get out if I never try
This should be the last time

This should be the last time
We know it won't when you're holding court
From your pedestal
Can't you come down?
Showing no remorse, you're impossible
I was strong before I got knocked down

And you just ruined my life
Knowing that I'll be further from fine
I'm all bark, never would bite
I've gone out of my mind pouring my case of kerosene
I'll be burning this down but keeping your knife
This won't be the last time
