Lyrics
0:00Under the Knife (刀刃之下) (Explicit) - Icon For Hire
0:00This is the song I'm too scared to write
0:06But some of you may need it tonight
0:12Oh there you were heart made of glass
0:14Fragile little thing shattered too fast
0:17Tried to pick the pieces up up up
0:20And that's the way you first got cut cut cut
0:23Devil drew you in you didn't let it show
0:26Didn't want the others to ever have to know
0:29That you were getting hooked on up up up
0:32And all you had to do was cut cut cut
0:35You carved a special place for your pain
0:40So it came back to hurt you every night
0:46You closed your eyes and wished it all away
0:52Until you disappeared under the knife
0:57You knew the deal no one gives a damn
1:00Just another needy kid sob story in hand
1:03Keep your secrets covered up up up
1:06We don't need another cut cut cut
1:09But you couldn't hide a heart made of glass
1:12You put yourself together with all the strength you had
1:14You were finally fed up up up
1:17Finally had to scream enough enough enough
1:20You carved a special place for your pain
1:26So it came back to hurt you every night
1:32You closed your eyes and wished it all away
1:38Until you disappeared under the knife
1:47Listen
1:47I know it's simplified from the other side
1:50It's easy to gloss over all the messy reasons why
1:53And it's easy to forget where you've been
1:55I guess that's what the scars are for huh
1:58When we were 15 we wouldn't dare let that sh*t be seen
2:02But now it seems mutalation's gone mainstream
2:05I see you at my shows scarred up from head to toe
2:07Like there's no point even trying not to let it show
2:10Cause we all know emo kids like to hurt themselves
2:13Too many feelings and not enough self control
2:16And I mean does this mess any of the rest of you
2:19It's an epidemic and we're cool with it don't question it
2:22But it bothers me our scars are currency by which we're measured
2:25Like let the record show who let it slip and who held it together
2:28Cutters and burners and honorable mentions
2:31Posers who still cut themselves up for the attention
2:33I don't care your intentions I just want you to know
2:36Myself hatred never took me where I wanted to go
2:39And at the end of the day you know I still had to face
2:42That I can pick at the pain but can't cut it away
2:45And you know what else
2:46I can't do is give you ten good reasons not to
2:48I've racked my brain for clever sayings of all the things
2:50You ought to do
2:51But you know I think if there was something I could say
2:54They'd have thrown it on a brochure and sent you on your way
2:57So I'll keep doing what I always do
3:00Drag my heart to the piano and make it sing for you
3:03I'll keep doing what I always do
3:05Drag my heart to the piano and let it sing for you
3:29Drag my heart to the piano and let it sing for you
