Marley Rae Lovelace - The Knife (Big Bad Wolf)

I wonder how much time it consumed
To have the blood washed from yourself
And I wonder if used differently
Could you have better helped
So misjudged at first glance
Cause of all the harm people use you to do
I know I wouldn't be alive
If it weren't for the help of you

Cause they met their match
And you made their day
In my short existence here
You made my pain go away
So sharp, so elegant
So strong, so intelligent
So commonly misused
So commonly taken away
I'm very glad I put you in my pocket
Before leaving my house today

Starts off as a classic story
Girl walks home alone
The Big Bad Wolf is hungry
But this chick can hold her own, ohh
Like deja vu
It's sickening how much I knew
One day I'd be needing you

Mama always told me
To be prepared
"Never leave your doorstep, Honey
Without your knife and a prayer"

Starts off with a classic story
Girl walks home alone
The Big Bad Wolf is hungry
But this chick can hold her own, Ohhh
(This chick can hold her own)

Cause they met their match
And you made their day
In my short existence here
You made my pain go away
(You made my pain go away)

They met their match
And you made their day
In my short existence here
You made my pain go away

Truth be told I'm terrified
And in my mind I'm paralyzed
Did you see his face
Could you see mine
Twisted by fear
Both of ours at the same time

But it was one or the other
Only one would walk away
And by the time he saw you
It was just too late

A part of both of us died today
