Like Knives Lyrics by City and Colour
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Your words are like knives
They peel my skin and pierce my soul
Your body will burn tonight, though your heart may still remain cold

And I will blame myself
I will blame myself for holding onto what I hoped would keep you by my side
I will blame myself

The sheets are stained with memories of your soft kiss
Now this is all I have,
Paper and pen to remember you with

And I will blame myself
I will blame myself for holding on to what I hoped would keep you by my side
I will blame myself

Can I have you?
Can I have you?
Can I have you?
Can I have you?
Your words are like knives   They peel my skin and pierce my soul   Your body will burn tonight, though your heart may still remain cold      And I will blame myself   I will blame myself for holding onto what I hoped would keep you by my side   I will blame myself      The sheets are stained with memories of your soft kiss   Now this is all I have,   Paper and pen to remember you with      And I will blame myself   I will blame myself for holding on to what I hoped would keep you by my side   I will blame myself      Can I have you?   Can I have you?   Can I have you?   Can I have you?
