Kaeli’s upbeat song about depressing stuff

Have you ever realized that your time and love were being used instead of reciprocated? Well… I did last year and knew I had to write a song I could jam out to AND cry. I hope that you find yourself in these lyrics and feel seen.

The Knife by Kaeli Dance on Apple Music

Lyrics:

I lower helmet sword and shield, Then you plunge the knife

You hold me close and twist it deep, I hold on to life

You look in my eyes, one more soul rending time

No malice no anger just soothing just tender, no whimper no cry

How can you plead not guilty? How can you not see what kills me?

Do you not understand the blood on your hands doesn’t make you a man?

Oh don’t you know you’re losing, the girl you’re using

When you open your eyes and I’m not in your life you’ll remember the knife

I watch my blood stain common ground as you walk away

You’ll tell the world it’s suicide, I wish I could say

Please look in my eyes, don’t you dare tell them lies

I’m sobbing and screaming I give up I’m leaving, don’t act so surprised 


How can you plead not guilty? How can you not see what kills me?

Do you not understand the blood on your hands doesn’t make you a man?

Oh don’t you know you’re losing the girl you’re using

When you open your eyes and I’m not in your life you’ll remember the knife

Now I’m just an apparition and my skin feels like a prison

You keep getting away with these hit and runs knowing justice will never be done 

And maybe I am meant for someone but they wouldn’t want me now

Cuz these wrongs will never be undone, so I’ll come on home to no one

How can you plead not guilty? How can you not see what kills me?

Do you not understand the blood on your hands doesn’t make you a man?

Oh don’t you know you’re losing the girl you’re using

When you open your eyes and I’m not in your life you’ll remember the knife


Now I’m just an apparition and my skin feels like a prison

You keep getting away with these hit and runs knowing justice will never be done
