Brian Setzer Orchestra - The Knife Feels Like Justice lyrics

rate me

So you think that you have found

A better life that you should live

And you're through givin' it all away

I wish there's something I could say

Like the time you looked into the mirror

And saw someone else lookin' back

I wish I could find the words

But there's nothing that even comes close

'Cause there ain't nobody ever looked at me

Without lookin' right through me

There ain't nobody ever looked at me

Without lookin' right by me

And you can't go when the knife feels like justice

When the sun dies down, the air grows cold

And the moon plays tricks in the night

Crawlin' low like a snake out of sight

Your guide is the northern light

You wanna laugh say I'm insane

Don't have the sense to come in from the rain

I know how to keep myself between the drops

There ain't nobody ever looked at me

Without lookin' right through me

There ain't nobody ever looked at me

Without lookin' right by me

And you can't go when the knife feels like justice

slip away

slip away

slip away

slip away

So you think that you have won me over

By settin' me on fire

With the sound of your beating heart

And you're burnin' hot desire

Like the time I looked at your reflections

And saw someone else lookin' back

It's a shame things happen that way

'Cause there's no one that even comes close

And there ain't nobody ever looked at me

Without lookin' right through me

There ain't nobody ever looked at me

Without lookin' right by me

And you can't go when the knife feels like justice

I said you can't go on when the blade tears inside you

You can't go on when the knife feels like justice
