Need to write a letter or screaming would be better Just to let some people know that I'm still alive Lately I've been thinking that maybe I should change But to tell the whole truth I still haven't decided 'Cause most situations Are rarely as good Or bad as they seem on the face of it What's given from the left Is taken from the right I know all these things 'cause I'm a knifethrower Everybody's got a fake smile One that they use every once in a while Everybody's got a long time To practise their lies and their smalltown crimes Everybody every now and then Can use a helping hand from a helping friend Most people got a lot to learn I know all these things 'cause I'm a knifethrower Try to tell myself that I know just where I stand But the conviction that I seek is just not there Instead a long line Of statements that I've eaten And I'll do it again 'Cause I'm a knifethrower Everybody's got a wrong mind In a wrong head and a horrible timing Everybody's being lied to By everyone else, including me and you Everybody wants a guarantee From some so-called god that they can't see Most people don't have a clue I know all these things 'cause I'm a knifethrower It's just a goddamn shame That the one without a thing to say Always talks the loudest - people listen anyway Now if I knew what I was doing Then I probably wouldn't do it
