So you think that you have found a better life then you should live

And you are through giving it all away, wish there was something I could say

By the time you looked into the mirror and saw someone else looking back

I wish I could find the words but there's nothing that even comes close

Cause there aint nobody ever looked at me without looking right through me

There aint nobody ever looked at me without looking right by me

And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice

When the sun dies down and the air grows cold

And the moon plays tricks through the night

But I low like a snake out of sight

All you got is no other life

You wanna laugh say i'm insane

Don't ever since to come in from the rain

I don't know why I keep myself

To even try

There aint nobody ever looked at me without looking right through me

There aint nobody ever looked at me without looking right by me

And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice

Slip away

Slip away

Slip away



So you think that you won me over

By setting me on fire

When the sound of your beating heart

And your burning heart desire

By the time I looked at your reflection and saw someone else lookin back

It's a shame things happened that way cause there's no one that even comes close

And there aint nobody ever looked at me without looking right through me

There aint nobody ever looked at me without looking right by me

And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice

I said you can't go on when the blade tears inside you

You can't go on when the knife feels like justice
