Walking the Knife - Hatebreed

You only know life’s worth

When you’re taken to a place where life means nothing

You only know what hurts

When you dig to a place where the pain stops coming

Some days will give you the ground

Some days will give you the rope

Someone will hand you the poison

Who is it that pours it down your throat

Follow follow

What your gut is telling you or

Swallow swallow

Swallow what they’re feeding you

Death is on one side, the other is life

Neither seems bright when you’re walking the knife

Follow follow

What your gut is telling you or

Swallow swallow

Swallow what they’re feeding you

Looking at both sides, foes or friends

Lighting the candle that burns at both ends

You only know love’s weight

When you’re carried to a place where acceptance is real

You only put your faith

In the places you know it’s truly sincere

Failure’s on one side, the other is growth

Neither is a choice when you’re beneath the earth

Follow follow

What your gut is telling you or

Swallow swallow

Swallow what they’re feeding you

Follow follow

What your gut is telling you or

Swallow swallow

Swallow what they’re feeding you

Death is on one side, the other is life

Neither seems bright when you’re walking the knife
