Steel knife

I dreamt I felt a steel knife
Slide smooth across a throat
The blood that came forth
Well it ended all the hope

This was the passion and this was the pain
This was a beginning and this was the end
Don't tell me that it's over

Take me out of this sun
Let this darkness carry on
Take me out of this sun

I woke to find this whole world
Weary in its fight
Searching for the mercy
Left fumbling in the night

A moment's liberation when the world is done
The gentle touch of lovers and this whole thing's begun
So don't tell me that it's over

I dreamt I felt a steel knife
Slide smooth across a throat
A moment's hesitation
Before you kill the hope

Is this the passion? Is this the pain?
Is this the ending? Or do we start again?
Just don't tell me that it's over

Take me out of this sun
Let this darkness carry on
Take me out of this
