knife song

I had a dream last night
and you were in it
you stuck a knife through my hand --
told me to "hold this a minute"

I bled from the palms and
we talked about issues
you said "I'm more likely to love
the kind of girl who does dishes"

so I took out the knife
and I washed it for you
after all that I've done,
it was the least I could do

it's the least I can do.
