My Knife To Your Throat
Scary Kids Scaring Kids Lyrics

And the picture frames are facing down
All the pictures he has even of her are facing down, indicating that he’s trying to run away and hide from the truth

I'm running from the truth
He may be trying to deny the truth or just simply avoiding dealing with it

Distorted images of you
He’s having trouble reconciling the girl he loves with the reality of who she really is

And you'll insist that you were right
She will stubbornly assert that she’s blameless even when evidence proves otherwise

When the facts show you were wrong
Despite any evidence, she won’t be swayed from her belief in her own righteousness

I'm holding my ground
He’s standing up for what he believes in, and not going to back down

You think this is some sort of game
She’s taking what’s happening between them as a joke, playing with his emotions

And you need to get your story straight right now, this time
She's insisting that he should believe her side of things, without really answering any questions

There's got to be a better way
There must be a more positive solution to their ongoing issues

You hang the suit to fit the frame right now, this time.
She’s trying to conform him to fit her needs and desires, rather than accepting him for who he is

And the shadows crowd these careless thoughts to you I can't describe
He has dark thoughts and emotions he can’t express, fearing her reaction if he does

And you're always on my mind
She's always at the forefront of his thoughts, he's obsessed with her

I did it all for love that's what she said
She's justifying her actions as being based on love, even if they might be hurtful or harmful to him

And the end is on it's way
The relationship is coming to an end, and both of them know it

This is my sanctuary
His own space is the only place he feels safe and can be himself

If you want my trust just tell me
He wants honesty and transparency from her, so he can trust her

I can't solve the problem when there's nothing wrong
He wants to pinpoint the issues within their relationship, but she insists that there aren’t any

This starts a brand new morning
He's ready to start anew, giving a fresh start to their relationship

Wake up to hear the warning
One of them is giving a warning about the future of their relationship

We can't ignore it when it's been so long
They've been having problems for a long time and can't simply ignore it and hope it will resolve itself

Throw open windows and the doors
He wants a change, he wants to expose their issues to fresh air, be open and transparent

I'll give my best, you'll ask for more
He gives his all in their relationship, but she's always going to ask for more

What we put together you'll just pull apart
No matter what they try to build together, she'll just destroy it

I raise my voice you still won't hear
He tries to make himself loud and clear, but she still doesn't listen to him

It's becoming harder to stay sincere
They've been having problems for a long time, and it's becoming more difficult for him to stay genuine and invested

Can't put behind us what we never left.
They've never fully resolved any of their problems, they just keep adding on to them, and that's why they can't move forward.

My knife, your throat...
