From the recording Mysterious Skin
Lyrics
TAKE THE KNIFE One more drink and call it a fight I’ve got no cigarette but really need a light If you’ve got no money then you have got no rights Your life will burn a slow suicide Do you think you’re funny? Do you laugh when no one is there? Do you wait up all night Just to hear somebody say Take the knife How far do you think you’ll go? Do you believe in what we’re fighting for? Do you really believe in destruction and war? Feels like I haven’t been to sleep for weeks Wont someone bring an end to this losing streak Does it take a life until we get a break? Will we live by the sea of by the lake? Do you think you’re funny? Do you laugh when no one is there? Is this what you want? Is this what we need? You’ve got to get up and believe Take the knife How far do you think you’ll go? Do you believe in what we’re fighting for? Do you really believe in destruction and war? Take the knife
