​knife

[Verse 1]
Throw some clothes on
Look at me closely
As the sun-lines slice your eye

I wake up
Throw pajamas on and
Breathe in the silver sky

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I rearrange
And I disengage
And I turn the page
And I burn the sage
And I find the light
And I toss the match
And I help you grow

I'll lift the sails
And I’ll spread my wings
And I'll fill the pails
And I'll count the rings
And I’ll dig with nails
And I'll find you here
And I'll bring you home

[Chorus]
Pain focus
Pain focus
Don't lose my love
Feign hopeless
Feign hopeless
The door slams shut

[Verse 2]
Cars outside
Carry me into the day
Like a resined bow

Your car speakers
Pop and fizzle like a
String tuned so tight it explodes

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I'll fight the lies
And I'll bind the ties
And I'll kill the lights
And I'll make it right
And I’ll dry your eyes
And I’ll win the fight
And I'll do these chores

I’ll make it work
And I'll do the dirt
And I'll heal the hurt
And I'll feel your words
And they’ll kill me dead
And I'll rise back up
And I'll come right back for more

[Chorus]
Pain focus
Pain focus
Don't lose my love
Feign hopeless
Feign hopeless
The door slams shut

[Outro]
