Here it is morning again life unstoppable

I'd open my eyes if it were still possible

Just tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

There were days when I thought we could

Don't know why that was, when no one does

There were days when I did not dream

We could hurt this way but two can play

Twist the knife, twist the knife

Twist the knife, twist the knife

Over and over and over and over

And over and over

Over and over and over and over

And over and over

It was in your voice, it was in your eyes

It was in your body, it was in the room

I could always feel it, it wrote my dreams

It stole my peace, it robbed my sleep

Here it is 3 a.m. and I'm still wide awake

I think in circles and circles are hard to break

Just tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

Trust contains the seed of betrayal

But also of something higher beyond the fire

You're not the exception, it's the rule

You know any fool can just give it away

Can just give it away, just give it away

Twist the knife, twist the knife

Over and over and over and over

And over and over

Over and over and over and over

And over and over

It was in your voice, it was in your eyes

It was in your body, it was in the room

I could always feel it, it wrote my dreams

It stole my peace, it robbed my sleep

Some things are fragile and some irresistible

Some things are easy and some irreplaceable

Just tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

There were days when time could have stopped

When it was enough to be in your love

There were days but those days were gone

Those days were gone, those days were gone

Twist the knife, twist the knife

Twist the knife, twist the knife

Over and over and over and over

And over and over

Over and over and over and over

And over and over
