《Raise The Knife(Live)》歌词

[00:11:43] Raise The Knife (Live) - Dream Theater

[00:11:43] Have I thanked you for your time?

[00:11:43] Or will your life go unrewarded

[00:11:43] Again?

[00:11:43] Never asking for a dime

[00:11:43] You just gave all of yourself

[00:11:43] Until I turned my back on you

[00:11:43] My friend

[00:11:43] The powers that be made you a martyr

[00:11:43] Conspiracy led you to slaughter

[00:11:43] I tried to control it but as soon as I showed it

[00:11:43] I was shot down again

[00:11:43] Once again outnumbered

[00:11:43] Appreciation slumbered

[00:11:43] You can ask yourself why

[00:11:43] But that look in your eye

[00:11:43] Doesn't pass the test

[00:11:43] You've been laid to rest my friend

[00:11:43] Again

[00:11:43] Tortured artist bears his soul

[00:11:43] Seems the pressure took its toll

[00:11:43] Lived a life so punishing

[00:11:43] Now he keeps the publishing

[00:11:43] Spilling your guts out to a pad and pen

[00:11:43] Communication to your silent friend

[00:11:43] Raising the knife

[00:11:43] To a picture of a life

[00:11:43] (I once knew)

[00:11:43] There comes a time

[00:11:43] Compromising my life

[00:11:43] (Just won't do)

[00:11:43] I cannot lie

[00:11:43] I can't try anymore

[00:11:43] (To reach you)

[00:11:43] I just can't fight

[00:11:43] Raise the knife

[00:11:43] Raise the knife

[00:11:43] Cut through

[00:11:43] I remember once you were the quiet type

[00:11:43] Content to sit and watch the motions of your life

[00:11:43] With false sensitivity

[00:11:43] You cut yourself open so people would adore you

[00:11:43] They all bought into your contrived sincerity

[00:11:43] And how you wore your heart and soul right on your sleeve

[00:11:43] Laughing sarcastically

[00:11:43] You turned your back on the people who adored you

[00:11:43] Self-absorbed exhaustion

[00:11:43] Self-esteem distortion

[00:11:43] Self-infused extortion

[00:11:43] Self-serving abortion

[00:11:43] I'll take the blame for these things that I say

[00:11:43] 'Cause I had the heart and the will and the courage to stay

[00:11:43] Every day

[00:11:43] I won't walk away

[00:11:43] Reading through all the digests you show me

[00:11:43] I notice the way that yo
