Paroles de Steel Knife

I dreamt I felt a steel knife
Slide smooth across a throat
The blood that came forth
Well it ended all the hope

This was the passion and this was the pain
This was a beginning and this was the end
Don't tell me that it's over

Take me out of this sun
Let this darkness carry on
Take me out of this sun

I woke to find this whole world
Weary in its fight
Searching for the mercy
Left fumbling in the night

A moment's liberation when the world is done
The gentle touch of lovers and this whole thing's begun
So don't tell me that it's over

I dreamt I felt a steel knife
Slide smooth across a throat
A moment's hesitation
Before you kill the hope
Take me out of this sun
Let this darkness carry on
Take me out of this
