Carnival Of Knives

[Verse 1] Fresh little splinter in the ring I heard your boots in the chain-link swing Zaun blood in a knife-sharp grin Brother to chaos, let the show begin You flip that blade like a carnival trick Dirty hands, quick feet, too hard to predict Fire in your pocket, smoke in your sleeve I like what you hide when you breathe, when you breathe [Pre-Chorus] Mmm, you smell dangerous Like trouble with a ribbon on it Mmm, so obvious I want to bite the hand that holds it [Chorus] Blade Dancer, come on in Blade Dancer, let me grin I like the way you cut so clean I like the stain you leave on me Blade Dancer, spin me round Blade Dancer, shake this town If you came to make me bleed Darling, that sounds sweet to me [Verse 2] You vault through steel like a dare gone wrong Then laugh when the floor gives out along A gadget pops, a spark goes red You kick the fear right out of its head You fight all crooked, you fight all sly A little gas, a little fire, a wicked eye And when you move, it’s a razor prayer I lean in close just to breathe you there [Pre-Chorus] Mmm, you smell dangerous Sweet poison on a blade-tip glove Mmm, so obvious I could ruin you and call it love [Chorus] Blade Dancer, come on in Blade Dancer, let me grin I like the way you cut so clean I like the stain you leave on me Blade Dancer, spin me round Blade Dancer, shake this town If you came to make me bleed Darling, that sounds sweet to me [Bridge] Bring your acrobat bones Bring your sparks and broken thrones Bring your dirty little tricks I know how to make them stick I’m a sweet little bite with a hungry face You step too close, I might hold you in place Not a warning, baby Just a promise in lace [Final Chorus] Blade Dancer, come on in Blade Dancer, let me grin I like the way you cut so clean I like the stain you leave on me Blade Dancer, spin me round Blade Dancer, shake this town If you came to make me bleed Darling, that sounds sweet to me [Outro] [Spoken] Welcome to the roster Try not to run I only chase the dangerous ones
