The Knife Lyrics by Tether

Severance

2018

I've been losing sleep
Over non-existent things
Fracturing my teeth
As if they need encouraging

Ignore the warning signs
Not once have they been right
And god, I swear I'm fine
God I swear, I'm fine

If I'd only felt the knife
(If I) If I'd only felt the knife

Left my body on the floor
I was out of sorts
And the fluorescent lights
Dance in hazy eyes

Too late for me to leave
When you're haunting me
In the shadows
And in the deep

If I'd only felt the knife
(If I) If I'd only felt the knife

Talked myself into corners
Tangled up in your hope
I should've kept my composure
I should've severed the rope before you took hold

Talked myself into corners
Tangled up in your hope
I should've kept my composure
I should've severed the rope
