Voice In My Knives

When the heart you shouldn't lose, becomes estranged
oh, yeah
Who’ll fix the pain?
When the lineage of trauma just won't break?
Let it rain
Listen to the call, It's 'gon rain
So let it rain

That voice in the knives shielded my night
When the options they have crumbled
When the absolutes refuse to let you go
What festers in your heart
They lost you as a child
And you never wanted them to look away (just look away)
And the time has come to feel that it's too late

When the penance for sedition blinds the flock
Yes it does
But the branded nervous system still remains
They all know
That voice in my knives shielded my night
And the coffins that you filled will never end
Let it rain
From the remnants of a name only you'd remember
Don't say it cause it happens every time
What festers in your heart
When they lost you as a child
And you never wanted them to look away (just look away)
Now the time has come for us to look away

Careful which one you choose
Careful tonight
The red day and nights

That voice in the night, was in the knives
That voice in the night, was in the knives (just look away, look away)
That voice in the night, was in the knives

You should not have had to jump ship when you did
But you did
They keep on finding ways to try and make you cave
Please don't cave
Remnants of a name only you'd remember
Don't say it cause it happens every time
What festers in your heart
When they lost you as a child
You never wanted them to look away (just look away)
Now the time has come for us to look away
And we all stand facing you just look away
Just look around
