Bright Eyes - Hot Knives Lyrics

The wife forgave the mistress
For she only entertained
The pain was gone the instant
She cleared her throat to speak her name
Said, “Both of us must suffer
From this same unending ache”

The world was not of interest
Though her days were never dull
Her bed beneath a crucifix
On guests performing miracles
With the Son of God just hanging like a common criminal
"When I do wrong, I am with God," she thought
"When I feel lost, I am not at all"

So give me black light
(Give, give me)
So give me hot knives
(Deep clean sleep)
On a dance floor no one tells time
(There is no time)

Oh, I’ve made love, yeah, I’ve been fucked, so what?
I’m a cartoon, you’re a full moon, let’s stay up

She went to see a mystic
Who made medicine from rain
And gave up her existence
To feel everything, dream other’s dreams
Bid farewell to her family
With one ecstatic wave
(Please take care, I love you all)
Out the window as the car rolled away
She just vanished into a thick mist of change

So let us rejoice
(Let’s rejoice!)
In all this pink noise
(Our pink noise!)
An oscillation that we can pinpoint
(We’re right here!)
