under the aspen tree - knife's edge كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
cut through the ribbon
your knife was slow and obstinate
in hospital waiting rooms
picking your way through bassinets and you
couldn’t find the right one
you couldn’t find the one that was the color of blood
you couldn’t find your baby
in that maze of hazy incandescent light

[verse 2]
cut from the same cloth
the child you lost and the child you stole from
his mother’s arms, she screamed and pointed
but you were long gone
you couldn’t be a mother
you couldn’t be the next best thing even though you tried
you couldn’t be a k!ller
but you could neglect the proof of your failures

[chorus]
and now on the knife’s edge
you live waiting for your time
you could find your heart and you could breathe it in
or you could let it die
’cause you don’t wanna stay but you don’t wanna leave
’cause you found a bl__dy comfort in your stupidity
so you could carry on or you could dig your grave
and lay yourself to rest with the child that you made
[verse 3]
pull back the curtain
you cross your heart and hope to find
a premonition clawing at your window
take it inside and give it some water
you couldn’t break your promise
you couldn’t leave that wretched thing out in the cold to die
you couldn’t be a savior
but you could pretend that everything would be alright

[chorus]
and now on the knife’s edge
you live waiting for your time
you could find your heart and you could breathe it in
or you could let it lie
’cause you don’t wanna stay but you don’t wanna leave
’cause you found a bl__dy comfort in your stupidity
so you could carry on or you could dig your grave
and lay yourself to rest with the child that you made

[outro]
your world has cracked right open beneath your feet
and the rubble and the ruins are all you can see
’cause this fog in your eyes and the translucency
and the signal from the microwave is cutting out the feed
you could leave it, leave it, leave it
you could leave it alone
or you could beat it, beat it, beat it
you could turn it to stone
or you could smash it, break it, torch it, hurt it
throw it, punch it, kick it, burn it
get back on the pavement
gods no, no, no, no, no
