Crawl Through Knives Lyrics

The black hole, forever mine,
I need the fear, push me out.
Oh be brave, show me signs,
Should I feel shame for the questions that I have (with you)

If you could it be, the things I need
(I'll crawl through knives an inch per tear)
These knees, they bleed for you.
(Let the colour persuade the hate that you fear)

Feed the lie, force the reason,
Leave me in doubt, need some motivation

It's in my hands, the sky
So bright its burning,
It's for me to decide
If flames will reach heaven tonight.
It's in my hands.

Nailed to the floor
Paralyzed
Emotions drifting
Touching the new

If you could it be, the things I need
(I'll crawl through knives an inch per tear)
These knees, they bleed for you.
(Let the colour persuade the hate that you fear)

It's in my hands, the sky
So bright its burning,
It's for me to decide
If flames will reach heaven tonight
[Repeat x4]

The chorus in this song is really kickass. For me this song is about a prophet, who wants to open the eyes of the humans. But they simply ignore him because humans don't want to hear the truth sometimes.

i appreciate that people are putting the leaked album lyrics online, but i am also getting very pissed off at the fact that they are consistently wrong. i really wish you guys would keep the lyrics off of here until you got the true ones from the CD booklet other than that... in flames is my favorite band, and to me... everything they do is magic basically

Haha, it's not about religion. ^^

It's about life, life hurts and it's supposed to... Learn from your mistakes.

yep your right, and its also about how he would crawl through knives for just to see his girl again

"It's in my hands, the sky's so bright, it's burning And for me, to design...In Flames We reach out to light, It's in my hands!"

I'm probably wrong, but I think it sounds more like

"It's in my hands, the sky's so bright, it's burning just for me, to design... we're in flames we'll reach heaven tonight"

Thanks for the correct lyrics RagingLunatix :) They do make a lot more sense. I thought the guessed lyrics were powerful but this stuff is just amazing. Listening to the lyrics, what Lord_Hypnos said about reaching God seems to make a lot of sense. Although I don't think it has anything to do with In Flames' religion or beliefs, it's almost as if they are questioning God and all the people that believe in a God, but where is he now? Eventually he decides its for him to decide. I hope that makes some sense! But it's an amazing song anyway!

not completely sure if this is right. Lemme know if it ain't

Sorry but I had to put this post at the top.

The lyrics above are right, and most of you guys are wrong.

Ok. The lyrics I got in some of the parts were Instead of IN FLAMES Can it be... I got "IF YOU couldnt be.. the things I need." And then the next line "THESE LIES let it bleed for you."

But other than that, I think you did a good job on this one. \m/

some corrections that i think are right:

first line: The black hole, forever mine

first (pre) chorus: It's You!! Could it be, the things I need These lies/eyes They bleed...for you

main (second) chorus: It's in my hands, the sky's so bright, it's burning It's for me, to design... with flames! We reach out to (the) light, It's in my hands!

I live in Norway, and believe me, I know this.

The chorus goes like this:

It's in my hands, the sky So bright it's burning, it's for me to decide... We're Flames We'll reach heaven tonight, it's in my hands.

i believe that inbetween the two lines

Could it be, the things I need. These eyes, they bleed, for you.

there's the utterance of 'i'll crawl through knives just to...' and i can't hear it because it trails off, but it definitely says it.

anyway, for the new album, this is really promising. i respect these, and hope they manage to pull out another fantastic album, because i've enjoyed every piece they've composed.
