Under the Knife

[Verse 1]

I try to forgive you and I do but I don’t

I hung up your halo on my highest of hopes

You hid it in clear view like I was in on the joke

How embarrassing to be the last to know

[Chorus]

If you told me that there was a way

To cut out a part of my brain

And you wouldn’t come to my mind

I would go under the knife

If it really was easy to fix

And you took out what I wouldn't miss

Leave me with only the highs

I would go under the knife

I would go under the knife

[Verse 2]

I picture it so easily the thought still makes me numb

It comes in waves and suddenly I’m back under your thumb

And if you had the decency I wish you’d shown me some

How quickly I dissolve on your tongue

[Chorus]

If you told me that there was a way

To cut out a part of my brain

And you wouldn’t come to my mind

I would go under the knife

If it really was easy to fix

And you took out what I wouldn't miss

Leave me with only the highs

I would go under the knife

I would go under the knife

I would go under the knife

I would go under the knife

[Chorus]

If you told me that there was a way

To cut out a part of my brain

And you wouldn’t come to my mind

I would go under the knife

If it really was easy to fix

And you took out what I wouldn't miss

Leave me with only the highs

I would go under the knife
