Knife in the Face - Good For You

I guess hope springs eternal in idiots like me

I lowered my guard — I put my good sense out to sea

Where handshakes mean nothing

And a man’s word is his lie

I can’t believe

I went along for the ride

When I was down and out

It left no doubt

This is reality

That’s what you think of me

Friends are just roles which we choose to occupy

Just blips on the radar passing in the night

And all of the good times they only end bad

And all of the laughter it always turns sad

Where handshakes mean nothing

And a man’s word is his lie

I can’t believe

I went along for the ride

When I was down and out

It left no doubt

This is reality

That’s what you think of me

This is the sound of a broken heart

I bared my soul and I had it ripped apart

This is the sound of shattered dreams

They flew too high and above their means

And all of those knives that were buried in my back

Not one of them could stop me in my tracks

But the knife that got me — That put me in my place

Is the one you stuck right in my fucking face

Where handshakes mean nothing

And a man’s word is his lie

I can’t believe

I went along for the ride

s are burning — I just watch them burn

Another one down man when will I learn?

When will I give up?

When will I quit?

Opening my life up to other people’s shit

Where handshakes mean nothing

And a man’s word is his lie

I can’t believe

I went along for the ride

When I was down and out

It left no doubt

This is reality

That’s what you think of me
