Brian Setzer - The Knife Feels Like Justice Lyrics

Artist: Brian Setzer

Album: Brian Setzer Collection: 1981-1988

Genre: Country

  • Songwriters: Brian Setzer

So you think that you have found
A better life that you should live
And you're through givin' it all away
I wish there's something I could say

Like the time you looked into the mirror
And saw someone else lookin' back
I wish I could find the words
But there's nothing that even comes close

'Cause there ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right through me
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right by me
And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice

When the sun dies down and the air grows cold
And the moon plays tricks in the night
Crawlin' low like a snake out of sight
Your guide is the northern light

You wanna laugh, say I'm insane
Don't have the sense to come in from the rain
I know how to keep myself between the drops

There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right through me
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right by me
And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice

Slip away
Slip away
Slip away

So you think that you have won me over
By settin' me on fire
With the sound of your beating heart
And you're burnin' hot desire

Like the time I looked at your reflections
And saw someone else lookin' back
It's a shame things happen that way
'Cause there's no one that even comes close

And there ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right through me
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right by me

And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice
I said you can't go on when the blade tears inside you
You can't go on when the knife feels like justice
