Take this knife
And put it in my heart for me
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna feel the life in you
I just wanna feel the life in you
It's all that we have
Don't let it weigh on your back, yeah
I can see you're trying hard
Behind every smile there's a teardrop
I can be the one to tell you hold it back
Don't let them make you cry
Don't let them crack your smile
I like it when you're going for it
Even when you're weakened in your bones and your body
And if a single tear is dropping
Don't let them see your eyes
Don't let them make you cry
Take this knife
And put it in my heart for me
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna feel the life in you
I just wanna feel the life in you
It's all that we have
Don't let it weigh on your back, yeah
I've been watching you shine
Just show me what a good time is
I'm in need of your kind 'cause
I am down and I need your love, yeah
Feels like they want you to cry, yeah
What do you feel when you dance, huh?
Feeling out of romance, huh?
The world is dust in your hands 'cause
You've been down and you need that love, yeah
Feels like they want you to cry
Take this knife
And put it in my heart for me
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna feel the life in you
I just wanna feel the life in you
It's all that we have
Don't let it weigh on your back, yeah
I wear my heart on my sleeve
I dress for the occasion
And when the day is over and the night is young
Don't let them make you cry
Yeah don't let them make you cry
I like it when you're going for it, for it
Even when you're weakened in your bones and your body
And if a single tear is dropping
Don't let them see your eyes
Don't let them make you cry yeah
Take this knife
And put it my heart for me
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna feel the life in you
I just wanna feel the life in you
It's all that we have
Don't let it weigh on your back yeah
Take this knife
