Knife and the Scar Songtext
von Austel

You′re closing your eyes
'Cause the light is too bright
And then claim you′re afraid of the dark
You can try all you like
But you don't come across
As the fighter you think that you are

And I cannot keep up
With the games that you play
All the moves that you make in my sleep
Did it ever occur to you
Once that I might be
The counter you wanted to keep?

It's a high road
And a lonely path
When you can′t see the truth
From the knife and the scar
It′s a home for
A winter's heart


I wasted the months
Crossing over the years
I was calling your name from afar
You were free, I was choking myself
In the summer, the heat
It was burning me up

And the wounds of a stranger
Consumed my emotion
You filled every space in my head
But I cut myself loose
From the ropes that you′d tied
I just needed some time to reflect

It's a high road
And a lonely path
When you can′t see the truth
From the knife and the scar
It's a home for
A winter′s heart

You were long gone
I give up too fast
But I saw through the smoke
And I lifted the mask
You're a cold home
For a winter's heart


Give me something I can go back to
When everything gets better
Give me something I can go back to
When everything gets better
(Give it back)
Give me something I can go back to
When everything gets better
(Give it back)
Give me something I can go back to
When everything gets

It′s a high road
And a lonely path
When you can′t see the truth
From the knife and the scar
It's a home for
A winter′s heart

You were long gone
I give up too fast
But I saw through the smoke
And I lifted the mask
You're a cold home
For a winter′s heart
