Sleeping With a Knife Songtext
von Ashbury Heights

I′m going down a straight line and they keep telling me I'm fine
There′s plenty of choice
Yet I no longer register movement that's no improvement
It's a still life made of noise

You know I′m not really drowning as much as I am
Riding shotgun with the crow
Mr Manic depressive and his friend compulsive obsessive and you

I never managed to become an alcoholic even though I tried and I tried
So I was still sober when the world was hungover
Never low but never high
And I keep on getting dumber while I′m waiting for my number
I don't know if I′m really alive
I may have never had a life
And yet I'm sleeping with a knife
′Cause I'll be damned if someone gets inside


I keep losing myself and god knows what else
I′m just so bored with being cool
I'm stagnate position there's no division
Everybody knows I′m just a tool

I know I′m meant to relent but I just resent
The implication that I'm bent
I′m shaped like a fake I'm just a foreign make of familiar decent

I never managed to become an alcoholic even though I tried and I tried
So I was still sober when the world was hungover
Never low but never high
And I keep on getting dumber while I′m waiting for my number
I don't know if I′m really alive
I may have never had a life
And yet I'm sleeping with a knife
'Cause I′ll be damned if someone gets inside


I never managed to become an alcoholic even though I tried and I tried
So I was still sober when the world was hungover
Never low but never high
And I keep on getting dumber while I′m waiting for my number
I don't know if I′m really alive
I may have never had a life
And yet I'm sleeping with a knife
′Cause I'll be damned if someone gets inside
