Winning lyrics

Song information

Artist: Emily Haines
Album: Knives Don't Have Your Back

Lyrics

To never open a book, always reading a magazine
Outspend, betting if it looks like winning you haven't been
Knives don't have your back
I wait and I count, the knives don't have your back
I wait and I count to the last breath we take

What we made, doesn't make sense
What's a wolf without a pack?
Open your chest and take the heart from it
Open your chest

What's bad, we'll fix it
What's wrong, we'll make it alright, alright
It's gone, we'll find it
Takes so long, we've got time
All the time

Some part of you, too small to lose
Some part of you, too small to lose
All of us, all of you
All of us, all of you counting to the last breath we take
What we made, doesn't make sense
What's a wolf without a pack?

Open your chest and take the heart from it
When you talk, can I tape you?
How'd you get what we don't know?
We don't know how to help
Only know how to hound
Nose to the grindstone
Grindstone to the ground

Don't even visit that place
They'll sharpen their teeth on your smile
I'm glad you didnt
All our songs will be lullabyes in no time

What's bad, what's wrong, make it alright, alright
It's gone, so long
We've got time, all the time
All the time

Aaaaaahhhhhhh
