Like a Knife in My Heart

Lyrics

Intro | finger-picked guitar

Verse 1] [Male Vocal

I found myself walking in circles
Trying to find some sense
Now I see your sympathy
Was only a pretence

Verse 2] [Male Vocal

I laid before you worn and weary
Confessing all of my sins
You offered comfort to my soul
Then cast it to the winds

Chorus

Like a knife in my heart
Can words cut so deep?
Like a knife in my heart
Can a man of stone bleed?
Like a knife in my heart
Like a knife in my heart

Verse 3] [Male Vocal

I see your face in cold reflection
A mirror of a dream
Your voice, once a gentle whisper
Now turned to piercing scream

Verse 4] [Male Vocal

Behind the mask of innocence
The truth is now revealed
The curtain drawn forevermore
A fate forever sealed

[Chorus

Like a knife in my heart
Can words cut so deep?
Like a knife in my heart
Can a man of stone bleed?
Like a knife in my heart
Like a knife in my heart

Bridge 1

Well nothing lasts and nothing changes
Empty words and cold embraces
A silence falls on yesterday
Tomorrow seems so far away

Fiddle Solo

Bridge 2

Silence isn't always golden
When all our promises were broken
Silence isn't always golden
Where the truth yearns to be spoken

Chorus

Like a knife in my heart
Can words cut so deep?
Like a knife in my heart
Can a man of stone bleed?
Like a knife in my heart
Like a knife in my heart

Outro

[Male Vocal] Like a knife in my heart
[Female Vocal | Whispered] (Like a knife in my heart)
[Male Vocal] Like a knife in my heart
[Female Vocal | Whispered] (Like a knife in my heart)
[Male Vocal] Like a knife in my heart

[Male Vocal] Tomorrow seems so far away
