Becoming a Knife Lyrics


Consume people

Practice in emotional coldness

Practice deadening it

But at the same time

you are becoming a knife

Created to sting hearts

warm blood on cold steel

Blessed is the lust

Blessed is rationality.

Blessed is the ego

Blessed is disregard.

Are you shaped by people?

Or do you carve yourself

out of a stone?

If you can't change

the circumstances

then kindly learn to adapt to them.

You can't change people's behavior

but you can change the way

you treat them

Learn your craft

and you will shape people.

Calculate

Manipulate

You don't need a god

You become your own master

Be like a mirror

In a world of snakes,

your only weapon

is to become toxic.

We all have a hole in us.

We work our whole lives

to fill the hole.

We feed it forever

And have never replenished it.

We feed it forever,

But nobody is able

to fill the hole.

Take your possession

Take your whole time

Take your emotions

And throw everything in the hole.

What does it give you back

except some moments?

Knowledge

Experience

Rational thinking

Kills the emotions

Decadent

Excessive

Fastidious

Supersaturated

Looking for more extremes

Just to realize

that you are still alive.

Remind yourself every day to suffer

on your fucking first world problems

Grab for everything you need

But never show weakness

Disappoint me

Hurt me

Please just give me a reason to hate you

And we will meet again

when feelings work through logic

Or we will meet again

when the knife is blunted

Or when the knife is broken
