We've got the knife


You've got your pretty face.
You've got disarming eyes.
You've got such social grace.
I've got my pretty spies.
I found you lost, misplaced.
I loved that lovely guise.
I said I'd try my luck and you said,
?well you don't you don't have to try.?
I forgot that night, what you said that night:
?I had the most exquisite time.?
Well you got that right,
but it's not the whole story.
I want it all. I court the loveliest of crimes.

Say it, as if it were true.
We've got the knife you left behind.
Play it just like you do.
I wanna hear you mean it,
when you say I'm not next in line.
I court the loveliest of crimes.
Save it cuz we've got the knife.
You've got your pretty face.
You've got your stunning glow. You've got exquisite taste.
I've got the marks to show.
You said you'd shoot the stars
but bullets make you blush.
Turns out, you liked to play.
Play with knives and I hear
that it gives you a rush.

Well we've got the knife,
yeah we've got the knife.
I've got the knife you left behind.
Well we've got the knife.
Now I want the whole story.
I thought you looked familiar.
I'd seen your face long before that night.
Now I wait, for you were no stranger.
No stranger to taking a life.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics WE'VE GOT THE KNIFE of AFI is also present in the album Crash love (2009)

Biografia

AFI (an acronym for A Fire Inside) is an American punk rock band formed in California in 1991. The founding members are vocalist Davey Havoc, guitarist Mark Stopholese, drummer Adam Carson and bassist Vic Chalker, who was later replaced by Geoff Kresge and subsequently by Hunter Burgan. AFI has gone through several musical phases, starting with a hardcore punk sound to evolve towards darker and more dramatic sounds influenced by gothic rock and industrial. Among the most representative songs are "Miss Murder", "The Leaving Song Pt. II" and "Silver and Cold". The album *Sing the Sorrow* (2003) is considered one of their most important works, thanks to the success of singles like "Girl's Not Grey" and "Death of Seasons".
