"The Blade" lyrics

"The Blade"

I let your love in, I have the scars
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, "Good-bye is not the end
And if you need me I'm still your friend"
Well, that's easy for you to say
'Cause you caught by the handle, baby
And I caught it by the blade

Oh, 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
Oh, 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
I caught by the blade

Oh, 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
Oh, 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, baby
I caught it by the blade
