Here it is morning again life unstoppable   I'd open my eyes if it were still possible   Just tell me why, tell me why, tell me why      There were days when I thought we could   Don't know why that was, when no one does   There were days when I did not dream   We could hurt this way but two can play   Twist the knife, twist the knife   Twist the knife, twist the knife      Over and over and over and over   And over and over   Over and over and over and over   And over and over      It was in your voice, it was in your eyes   It was in your body, it was in the room   I could always feel it, it wrote my dreams   It stole my peace, it robbed my sleep      Here it is 3 a.m. and I'm still wide awake   I think in circles and circles are hard to break   Just tell me why, tell me why, tell me why      Trust contains the seed of betrayal   But also of something higher beyond the fire   You're not the exception, it's the rule   You know any fool can just give it away   Can just give it away, just give it away   Twist the knife, twist the knife      Over and over and over and over   And over and over   Over and over and over and over   And over and over      It was in your voice, it was in your eyes   It was in your body, it was in the room   I could always feel it, it wrote my dreams   It stole my peace, it robbed my sleep      Some things are fragile and some irresistible   Some things are easy and some irreplaceable   Just tell me why, tell me why, tell me why      There were days when time could have stopped   When it was enough to be in your love   There were days but those days were gone   Those days were gone, those days were gone   Twist the knife, twist the knife   Twist the knife, twist the knife      Over and over and over and over   And over and over   Over and over and over and over   And over and over
