There is a good reason I should be left alone
Tonight, you’re crazy! (Tonight, you‘re crazy!)
And I got a strong suspicion that you're the one stalking me with a knife! (Tonight)
I don’t need a man that thinks it's right to do such wrong
Tonight, you’re crazy! (Tonight, you‘re crazy!)
Over your limit, hostile, livid, we both know where you belong tonight (jail)

[Bridge:]
It's hard for me to trust, you’re just so dangerous
I'm gonna run right into, into, the grave with you
We’ve both fallen so out of love

[Chorus:]
The edged knife is gory, and I’m hanging on to my life as you push it through
Blood on the edged knife is gory, and I'm hanging on to my life as you push it through
Blood on the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge,
The edged knife is gory, and I’m hanging on to my life as you push it through
Now I’m dying ‘cause of you

Another stab before I reach the “other side”
Tonight, you’re crazy! (Tonight, you‘re crazy!)
I'm on the sharpened edge of something final we call life tonight
(It’s not right! It’s not right!)
Put my body in a grave, 'cause I'll be dancing in the flames
Tonight, you’re crazy! (Tonight, you‘re crazy!)
This is hell, and the Devil knows my name tonight
(It’s not right! It’s not right!)

It's hard for me to trust, you’re just so dangerous
I'm gonna run right into, into, the grave with you
We’ve both fallen so out of love

The edged knife is gory, and I’m hanging on to my life as you push it through
Blood on the edged knife is gory, and I'm hanging on to my life as you push it through
Blood on the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge,
The edged knife is gory, and I’m hanging on to my life as you push it through
Now I’m dying because of you

Blood on the edged knife ‘cause of you
Blood on the edged knife ‘cause of you
(You, you, you...)

[Solo saxophone]

The edged knife is gory, and I’m hanging on to my life as you push it through
Blood on the edged knife is gory, and I'm hanging on to my life as you push it through
Blood on the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge, the edge,
The edged knife is gory, and I’m hanging on to my life as you push it through
Now I’m dying because of you (because of you, because of you, because of you, because of you)

No tears to cry,
your love was a lie
You took my life,
with an edged knife
