I've calculated
The distance
From my steady hand
To your heart
And I honed the blade
On my anger
Now I stand behind you
In the dark
You're breathing in
And breathing out
For one last time

'Cause I won't lie
No I won't lie
For you
Anymore

So turn around friend
And face me
Don't tell me now
You're surprised
Your lovers all
Will desert you
Let me ease that pain
With this knife
You're breathing in
And breathing out
For one last time

'Cause I won't lie
No I won't lie
For you

And I know I'm born
With a prophet's curse
Never see the good
Only see the worst
But in time the snake will split his skin
To reveal another snake within

You're breathing in
And breathing out
For the final time

And I know I'm born
With a prophet's curse
Never see the good
Only see the worst
But in time the snake will split his skin
To reveal another snake within
