Lyrics for The Kindest Cut

So now you're mine and it really shows Give me speed and a place to go And a knife to bring back what I know It didn't hurt a bit I hate this curse of tenderness So hit me hard and break the spell That keeps weak and so unreal No matter how it feels Sweetness and light in your cold Scratch your surface with a knife Just an inch from your life It's the kindest cut of all Today I'll take a leap of faith I hope there's solid ground beneath Enough to dig a shallow grave Just like the good ol' days Sweetness and light in your cold Scratch your surface with a knife Just an inch from your life It's the kindest cut of all The kindest cut of all Sweetness and light in your cold Scratch your surface with a knife Just an inch from your life It's the kindest cut of all Of all Of all So now you're mine and it really shows
