Like A Knife Lyrics

I dream a lot, I know you say
I've got to get away.
"The world is not yours for the taking"
Is all you ever say.
I know I'm not the best for you,
But promise that you'll stay.
Cause if I watch you go,
You'll see me wasting, you'll see me...

physical pain sometimes less than emotional pain. like when someone you love dies sometmes you feel like youd rather get hit by a car than have to go through all the sadnesss. cuz the bruises and scrapes will eventually heal but once someone is gone forever well...forever is a long time. words can hurt depending on who said it.

This song explains alot... someone walking out of your life, could be divorce, breakup, friendship. Anything.

And "Your words felt like a knife", could mean that the person said something awfully painful, like the pain of a knife cutting you.
