[Verse]
You came in smooth like a thief in the dark
Left your mark like a blade
Like a spark
Words so slick
They cut like glass
Didn’t see the shank till it hit my past
[Chorus]
Shanked by love
It’s a twist
It’s a cut
Heart on fire
But the flame won’t shut
Shanked by you
Now I’m bleeding inside
Didn’t see the knife
But I felt the slide
[Verse 2]
Your lies hit hard
Like a bassline drop
Thought it was love
But it’s a heart that you crop
The beat keeps pounding
But I’m standing still
Shanked in the soul
You’re the sharpest thrill
[Bridge]
A stitch in time won’t sew me whole
You carved your name in my aching soul
I’m a melody lost in a broken groove
But the rhythm of pain makes me move
[Chorus]
Shanked by love
It’s a twist
It’s a cut
Heart on fire
But the flame won’t shut
Shanked by you
Now I’m bleeding inside
Didn’t see the knife
But I felt the slide
[Outro]
I’m a scar now
Walking in the light
A shadow of love in the dead of night
Shanked
But I’m dancing
I’m still alive
This beat’s my blade
And I’ll survive
