You Twist The Knife

You swore you’d never run, I swore you’d stay,
Now I wake in the dark where you used to lay.
Your memory breathes like it’s still alive,
Every heartbeat aches — you twist the knife!

The air still hangs with your perfume,
Every dream drags me back to that room.
I reach for what’s gone that we left behind,
And every shadow whispers — you twist the knife.

You were my truth, the sin I can’t forgive,
The flame that burned the will I had to live.
You turned our love to a sharpened lie,
And left me with the echo — you twist the knife.

I gave you truth, but you fed me lies,
Now I bleed your name when I close my eyes.
You burned my faith to feel alive,
And every heartbeat screams — you twist the knife.

Our friends all say, “Man, let her go,”
But they don’t see the pain that I don’t show.
It cuts my chest like broken glass,
You stole tomorrow, left my past — you twist the knife.

You were my truth, the sin I can’t forgive,
The flame that burned the will I had to live.
You turned our love to a sharpened lie,
And left me with the echo — you twist the knife.

I’d rather you hate me than walk away,
At least the hurt would have something to say.
You took my heart and crushed its light,
And left me sinking slow — you twist the knife.

Don’t tell me time will make this fade,
It’s carved too deep in the scars you made.
I’m half a man from memory’s bite,
Still reaching through the dark — you twist the knife.

You were my truth, the sin I can’t forgive,
The flame that burned the will I had to live.
You turned our love to a sharpened lie,
And left me with the echo — you twist the knife!

You were my truth, the sin I can’t forgive,
The flame that burned the will I had to live.
You turned our love to a sharpened lie,
And left me with the echo — you twist the knife!
you twist the knife!
