Dagger Lyrics by Demi Lovato

0

[Verse 1]
So beautiful, but equally lethal
So magical, and at the same time painful
No time to react, no, 'cause it happened so fast
Can't change the future if it's left in the past

[Pre-Chorus]
I couldn't see it coming, I never jumped the gun
I'm caught up in the moment, I guess it wasn't love

[Chorus]
Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?
Stuck around when I should have ran
But I can't blame you, I did it to myself
Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?
Tell me, how did I come to this end?
I did it to myself when I gave you the dagger
Gave you the dagger

[Verse 2]
I'm watching you walk away, but I can't follow
And I got words to say, but they don't seem so hollow
Left here on the ground and my body feels so cold
Now I know that you're a killer, but the story goes untold

[Pre-Chorus]
I couldn't see it coming, I never jumped the gun
I'm caught up in the moment, I guess it wasn't love

[Chorus]
Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?
Stuck around when I should have ran
But I can't blame you, I did it to myself
Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?
Tell me, how did I come to this end?
I did it to myself when I gave you the dagger
Gave you the dagger

[Bridge]
By trusting you, I went from queen to fool
I gave you all my heart and gave you the weapon too
And by loving you, I gave you the perfect tool
To stab me in my heart, with my last words, I said

[Chorus]
Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?
Stuck around when I should have ran
But I can't blame you, I did it to myself
Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?
Tell me, how did I come to this end?
I did it to myself
And I said, damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?
Stuck around when I should have ran
But I can't blame you, I did it to myself
Damn, why did I put the knife in your hand?
Tell me, how did I come to this end?
I did it to myself when I gave you the dagger
Gave you the dagger
