Angel #404: Dancing in the Knife Room

Verse 1

Silver

Sharp edges

Cold heavy steel hanging low

Bare feet on the concrete floor

No clothes

No shield

Safety is a lie we told

The blade

It swings

It bites the air

I am spinning through the jagged glare

Chorus

Moving in the knife room

Moving in the knife room

Skin against the metal

Moving in the knife room

I am not afraid

I am not afraid

I am not afraid

Post-Chorus

Cut

Cut

Cut

Watch the metal spin

Watch the metal spin

Verse 2

Polished

Points pressing

One wrong move is a deep mistake

The rhythm is a risk I take

Hard glass

Thin ice

Everything is fragile now

My breath

My blood

My beating chest

Put the danger to a final test

Chorus

Moving in the knife room

Moving in the knife room

Skin against the metal

Moving in the knife room

I am not afraid

I am not afraid

I am not afraid

Post-Chorus

Cut

Cut

Cut

Watch the metal spin

Watch the metal spin

Bridge

The point

The edge

The handle

I see it all

I feel it all

I know it all

Closer

Leaning in

Testing how the sting begins

Chorus

Moving in the knife room

Moving in the knife room

Skin against the metal

Moving in the knife room

I am not afraid

I am not afraid

I am not afraid

Outro

Keep turning

Until it stops

Until the floor is wet

Keep turning

Turning

Turning

Steel and skin

Steel and skin
