Woodpecker
Tamara Bruketta
When I'm a knife
I always cut too deep
It's better if I don't speak
I've seen too many things, none of it happening to me
But I know, I know, I know
When I'm a knife there is no feeling
The world just keeps on bleeding
& I know I know I know
They need something to believe in
& when I'm a bird, it's much more forgiving
Because they don't like it when you're not caged in
And when I'm a knife
I might be a weapon
****************************
I might be a weapon
Cut right to the core
Forget what I did it for
But such is life
When you're a knife
