lyrics

You’ll be far up town
I’m left, I'm left under underground
It’s a falling out, a falling out, a falling out.
People take a chance
on a single night romance
Do they fall apart, you know the start, when it falls apart

Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t.

Wake up in the dark
And sit alone with every chart
Try to, try to change their fate
But there’s no escape, there’s no escape
Hop onto the 4,
or catch a 5 or 6 or more, it doesn’t matter
when they’re off the map, there’s no turning back, don't turn your back
Please don't cut me, cut me

Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t.

We all bow our heads
to the ones who tell us instead
Where we, where we have to go
do they ever know
Will they ever know
Know what I want
Will I have to put up a fight
Can I, can I see it through
Will you let me through, can it be something new

Please don’t cut me, cut me

Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t

Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t
Please don’t cut me, please don’t.

We all bow our heads to the ones who tell us instead
where we, where we have to go, do they ever know, will they ever know

FinleyKnight moved to LA in March of 2013 to collaborate with Joey Waronker on their first full length, self-titled album.
