Switchblade - October

I’m so tired

But when I close my eyes I cannot sleep

Trained and wired

Hung upon you, I’m feeling so cheap

And I’m spent

I’m so tired

I’m more alive when stumbling through dark streets

Sick from the hide

Only fine when I’m within your sheets

And I’m spent

Don’t you patronize me

I’ll cut you a glance with glass eyes

Don’t you realize that

It’s your own belief that is lies

I’ve got a mind like a switchblade

Come and test me and I’ll show you what I’m really made of

Glinting and unafraid

I’m like a switchblade

I’ve got a mind like a switchblade

Cutting edge like I’m up today

I’m like a switchblade

I’m like a switchblade

I’m so sick

Dreams racing through my brain, can’t concentrate

It’s bullshit

I’m stuck in this mould that you made

And I quit

I’m so tired

Of glassy shards of words you think that fall unheard

Trained and wired

IHung upon you, I’m feeling so cheap

And I’m spent

Don’t you patronize me

I’ll cut you a glance with glass eyes

Don’t you realize that

It’s your own belief that is lies

I’ve got a mind like a switchblade

Come and test me and I’ll show you what I’m really made of

Glinting and unafraid

I’m like a switchblade

I’ve got a mind like a switchblade

Cutting edge like I’m up today

I’m like a switchblade

I’m like a switchblade

(Uh, uh, uh…)

Doe-eyed, docile, you think that’s my profile

Little do you know that I am sharp

One day, you’ll see, I’m the one whose gleam edge

Sharpening my wit upon your lame bullshit

I’m not one to fall in a fight

I’ve got a mind like a switchblade

Come and test me and I’ll show you what I’m really made of

Glinting and unafraid

I’m like a switchblade

I’ve got a mind like a switchblade

Cutting edge like I’m up today

I’m like a switchblade

I’m like a switchblade
