Twisting the Knife

Lyrics for Twisting the Knife

I watch it trickle from your lips, pearls of red ruby Soaking up your head until you want to push through Then the world turns red and the wine tastes sour Pushing back the hand until the midnight hour Every door is closing behind you There's no one left to come and find you You're soaking wet but the fire won't dry you I'd like to help you but I cant stand by... (Can't stand by) And watch you twisting the knife (They've got you) wasting your life (Can't stop you) twisting the knife Oh yeah I'd rather turn out all the lights than see you looking like this Caress me with your anger sting me with your kiss (sting me with your kiss) You've been pushing too hard I've been trying too long Now I don't believe I have the will to carry on (carry on) You take it one step forward then it's two steps back I'd jump the wire but I'm feeling, feeling trapped Its other people make you insecure (insecure) I won't surrender like I did before (surrender like I did before) And watch you twisting the knife (They've got you) wasting your life (Can't stop you) twisting the knife (Surrender like I did before) Twisting yeah, twisting the knife (They've got you) twisting the knife (Can't stop you) Yeah! Sting me with your kiss You take it one step forward then it's two steps back I'd jump the wire but I'm feeling, feeling trapped Its other people make you insecure (insecure) I won't surrender like I did before (surrender like I did before) And watch you twisting the knife (They've got you) wasting your life (Can't stop you) twisting the knife I won't surrender like I did before (surrender like I did before) Twisting yeah, twisting the knife (They've got you) twisting the knife (Can't stop you) twisting the knife I won't surrender like I did before (surrender like I did before) Twisting yeah, twisting the knife Twisting (They've got you) twisting the knife Twisting the knife (Can't stop you) twisting the knife I won't surrender like I did before (surrender like I did before) Twisting yeah, twisting the knife
