Crank the Knife lyrics

by Tourniquet

Distance makes my heart to fester
in self-inflicted pain
If I can't face the consequences of my actions
I'll find somebody else to blame

I greet you with a brother's kiss
and crank the knife anothertwist

Twisting facts to fit the fabrications of my mind
I find I've crossed the line
No matter what the cost I must be right

I greet you with a brother's kiss
and crank the knife another twist
pointing to things that don't exist
I crank the knife another

Alone among the ashes of the things
which once defined my life
I hold the match that lit the fire
but you'll never see me take the blame
