Knives Of Summertime Lyrics - Sparklehorse

A flock of knives cut the sky 

And buried in my black eyes 

And the clouds they bled in my head 

And autumn rain soaked the dry beds 

And the hurricane of her eyes wailed away the knives 

The knives of summertime, summertime 

The knives of summertime, summertime 

The knives of summertime 

And I did swallow stained glass tears 

Absorbed by the sun for many light years 

And the fire flies in her hair 

My red concertinas coming down the stairs 

And the hurricane of her eyes wailed away the knives 

The knives of summertime, summertime 

The knives of summertime, summertime 

The knives of summertime
