The Knife - Poetry By Night
You know but you don′t do anything
You′re here but you won′t listen
You′re looking but there′s nothing there
You have but you′re not giving
Aah, aah
Aah, aah
Aah

You know but you don′t do anything
You′re here but you won′t listen
You′re looking but there′s nothing there
You have but you′re not giving
Aah, aah
Aah, aah
Aah
Pedalling through
The dark currents
I find
An accurate copy
A blueprint
Of the pleasure
In me
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
A secret code carved
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
A secret code carved
He offers
A handshake
Crooked
Five fingers
They form a pattern
Yet to be matched
On the surface simplicity
But the darkest pit in me
It’s pagan poetry
Pagan poetry
Morsecoding signals (signals)
They pulsate (wake me up) and wake me up
(pulsate) from my hibernating
On the surface simplicity
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
But the darkest pit in me
It’s pagan poetry
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
Pagan poetry
Swirling black lilies totally ripe
....
I love him, I love him
I love him, I love him
I love him, I love him
I love him, I love him
She loves him, she loves him
This time
She loves him, she loves him
I’m gonna keep it to myself
She loves him, she loves him
She loves him, she loves him
This time
I’m gonna keep me all to myself
She loves him, she loves him
And he makes me want to hand myself over
She loves him, she loves him
She loves him, she loves him
And he makes me want to hand myself over
[Chorus]
[John Mayer:]
Bittersweet
You′re gonna be the death of me
I don′t want you, but I need you
I love you and hate you at the very same time
Bittersweet
[Verse 1:]
See what I want so much, shit never hurt this bad
Never did this before, that′s what the virgin says
We′ve been generally warned, that′s what the surgeon says
God talk to me now, this is an emergency
And she claim she only with me for the currency
You cut me deep bitch, cut me like surgery
And I was too proud to admit that it was hurting me
I′d never do that to you, at least purposely
We breaking up again, we making up again
But we don′t love no more, I guess we fucking then
Have you ever felt you ever want to kill her?
And you mix them emotions with tequila
And you mix that with a little bad advice
On one of those bad nights, ya′ll have a bad fight
And you talking ′bout her family, her aunts and shit
And she say "Motherfucker, yo momma′s a bitch!"
You know, domestic drama and shit, all that attitude
I′ll never hit a girl, but I′ll shake the shit outta you!
But I′mma be the bigger man, Big Pimpin′ like Jiggaman
Oh I guess I figure it′s...
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
See what I want so much, shit never hurt this bad
Never did this before, that′s what the virgin says
We′ve been generally warned, that′s what the surgeon says
God talk to me now, this is an emergency
And my nigga said I shouldn′t let it worry me
I need to focus on the girls we getting currently
But I been thinking and it got me back to sinking and
This relationship it even got me back to drinking all this
Hennessy
It′s gonna be the death of me
And I always thought that you having our child was our destiny
But I can′t even vibe with you sexually
Cuz every time I would try, you would question me
Saying "You fucking them girls, disrespecting me?
You don′t see how ya lies is affecting me.
You don′t see how our life was supposed to be.
And I never let a nigga get that close to me.
And you ain′t cracked up to what you was supposed to be.
You always gone, you′ll always be where them hoes′ll be."
And this the first time she ever spilled her soul to me
[Chorus]
[Kanye:]
I fucked up and I know it g
I guess it′s bittersweet poetry
[Bridge x2]
See what I want so much, shit never hurt this bad
Never did this before, that′s what the virgin says
We′ve been generally warned, that′s what the surgeon says
God talk to me now, this is an emergency
[Chorus]

Chorus to fade
[Aubrey]
When I stand in a crowded room
I feel alone like nobody′s there
And when you talk cold to me
I can see your breath in the air
It′s taking it′s toll on me
In the bathroom taking showers
So you don′t see me cry
Baby it′s such a crime
[Dawn]
I try to feel confident
I′m bitter - You′re not making sense
I missed you ′til you almost took my sanity
I started a new verse like
[DK]
Poetry, you′re hiding behind the words you speak
Changing the words of the story
You say you don′t love me then say that you love me
I′m fighting
You′re hiding behind the words you′re speaking
You′re changing the words, I′m lost in the verse
You say you don′t love me then say that you love me
Why are you hiding?
[D. Woods]
When I give you gratitude
You act like you don′t hear me speak
When I tell you what you do to me
You don′t even hear the truth
What are you trying to prove; I stare out of the window for hours
Cause you don′t listen to me
You won′t even look in my eyes
[Dawn]
I try to feel confident
I′m bitter - You′re not making sense
I missed you ′til you almost took my sanity
I started a new verse like
[DK]
Poetry, you′re hiding behind the words you speak
Changing the words of the story
You say you don′t love me then say that you love me
I′m fighting
You′re hiding behind the words you′re speaking
You′re changing the words, I′m lost in the verse
You say you don′t love me then say that you love me
Why are you hiding?
[Aundrea]
Don′t believe what you′re saying
I read your face and I′m blanking
Cause I don′t know what′s in front of my eyes
I try to feel confident
[Dawn & Aundrea]
I try to feel confident
I′m bitter - You′re not making sense
I missed you ′til you almost took my sanity
Oh.. oh.. oh.. oh...
Oh.. oh.. oh.. oh...
Oh.. oh.. oh.. oh...

"There′s no poetry between us"
Said the paper to the pen
Something′s burning in the attic
That her tongue will not defend
Through the arc of conversation
Past the teeth behind the smile
Down the miracle mile
To the bottom of the ladder
Paint your eyes and hide the tatters
What′s the matter baby?
Could we go downtown
To the middle of the world?
You were always such a pretty girl
And you told me I was beautiful
"There′s no poetry between us"
Said the paper to the pen
"And I get nothing for my trouble
But the ink beneath my skin"
If your clothes are getting weary
And your soul′s gone out of style
Blame the miracle mile
And the bottom of the ladder
Paint your eyes and hide the tatters
What′s the matter baby?
...I′m coming too
