​knifeback Lyrics by Phixel

misplaced flora (Physical Edition)

2021

[Verse 1]
(Ah)
(Ah)
I just don't know what's going on
All these words are swooping down and pecking, oh my god
Paintings look at me with bad intent
Unreality, it's just so hard to comprehend

[Pre-Chorus]
It's all an abstraction
A piece of the world, just a minuscule fraction
I can't take the factions
We're just so divided, don't start the subtraction

[Chorus]
Knives in my eyes
(And in my back that you left in me)
You took my life
(Can't take that back, I won't rest in peace)
Trudge across the earth with an open wound
Blood dripping down, I'll miss that soon
Knives in my eyes
(And in my back that you left in me)

[Verse 2]
Paint a hundred thousand paintings of what you suspect
Is inside my mind, and it won't be right
Write a hundred thousand books about what to perfect
How to follow the light, how to keep things tight
And you're hurting my head like my brain's in a blender
I'm feeling the rain, 'cause I'm under the weather
And I know I'll get back at you soon
Yeah, I know I'll get back at you soon

[Verse 3]
(Ah)
(Ah)
I just don't know what's going on
All these words are swooping down and pecking, oh my god
Paintings look at me with bad intent
Unreality, it's just so hard to-

[Bridge]
And when I do it hurts my head
And when I do it hurts
And when I do it hurts my head
And when I do it hurts

[Chorus]
Knives in my eyes
(And in my back that you left in me)
You took my life
(Can't take that back, I won't rest in peace)
Trudge across the earth with an open wound
Blood dripping down, I'll miss that soon
Knives in my eyes
(And in my back that you left in)
(Knives in my back you left in me, in me)
