Butterknife

Lyrics: Jessie Chambers Music: Jessie Chambers I don’t wanna play pretend Made it here on time for you, like you said Ordering my favorite Splitting it for dinner with a side of regret There were nights, better days When we weren’t afraid What we’d do, what we’d say Never ruined a date Candlelight filling up an empty room Shadowing colors only black and blue Silence joining us in the booth Taking my place holding hands with you Watching you light another cigarette And wonder what’s hiding under every breath It’s breaking my heart I pull it out in two Keep one in my chest, give the rest to you Quieter with every bite Sinking in the leather on the back of my thighs You don’t need to justify Bringing out the knife to a dinner fight There were nights, better days When we weren’t afraid What we’d do, what we’d say Now it hurts either way Candlelight filling up an empty room Shadowing colors only black and blue Silence joining us in the booth Taking my place holding hands with you Watching you light another cigarette And wonder what’s hiding under every breath It’s breaking my heart I pull it out in two Keep one in my chest, give the rest to you Candlelight filling up an empty room Shadowing colors only black and blue Silence joining us in the booth Taking my place holding hands with you Watching you light another cigarette And wonder what’s hiding under every breath It’s breaking my heart I pull it out in two Keep one in my chest, give the rest to you Give the rest to you Give the rest to you Give the rest to you
