  • Take that knife out of my back
    Take that knife out of my back

    Ruins leaped and free me on now
    Fire keeps running in my life
    That painful scene the family ruined
    Is the last thing staying in my mind

    [Chorus]
    Turn all of my people
    So deep down under my mind
    Deep down under my mind
    Turn all of my people
    So deep down under my mind
    Deep down under my mind

    Let me take scene in your destruction
    It has kept me walking with a knife
    That painful mess you call your loving
    Has wind up being your sick cry

    (Repeat x4)
    Take that knife out of my back
    Take that knife out of my back

    [Chorus: x2] Writer/s: Bob Marlette, Jonathan Edward Radtke, Richard Michael Patrick
    Publisher: BMG Rights Management, Kobalt Music Publishing Ltd., Round Hill
