Do you remember the Flight of the Knife
That caused the ultimate sensation
Taking the hearts of the whole united nation?
Well, they discovered the Flight of the Knife
Was nothing more than an illusion
A trick on the mind's appetite for new delusion
Heroes are everywhere, running our races
But no one understands about Flying Aces
He was the sum of our lives "“ that was the Flight of the Knife
But he messed with our wrong and right
And now he's living such a lonely, lonely life
They called it the Flight of Knife
And probably will do so for always
But they can't erase what was shouted down our hallways
Stories are everywhere, plotting our courses
But don't forget the presence of rotten sources
He was the sum of our lives that was the Flight of the Knife
And though we buy what we're sold
We owe it to our angels never to ignore the wise
Do you remember the Flight of the Knife
That caused the ultimate sensation
Breaking the hearts of the whole united nation?
Well, that was the Flight of the Knife
And you can give it to the dreamers to put in a frame
But I'll steer you right
Find your own way to the knife
