getting into knives (jordan lake sessions volume 1) - the mountain goats lyrics

[intro]
two, three, and

[verse 1]
i hit the cul*de*sac on the spiritual path
retraced my steps back home
but the house burned down before i got there
and i found myself alone
i tried to keep things in perspective
as i hunted down the perpetrator
loaded up my toolkit with every hateful instrument
now here we are thirty years later

[chorus 1]
i’m getting into knives
i’m getting into knives
i’ve been up and down the buffet
sеveral different timеs
i’ve adjusted my focus
i’m getting into knives

[verse 2]
i sought wisdom from the sages
consulted with master tacticians
met up with some guys who wouldn’t tell me their last names
they specialized in non*conventional munitions
stayed on the scent like a bloodhound
followed the trail where it led
taste of hot ashes on my tongue all day
i took my rifle with me to bed
[chorus 2]
but i’m getting into knives
i’m getting into knives
it’s a gift to be simple, it’s a gift to be free
i’ve adjusted my focus
i’m getting into knives

[verse 3]
held to my vision all these days
while stray signals kept flooding the switchboard
came all this way for hunger
may i be worthy of my reward
i stood at the door, and i listened
rustled through my rucksack as quiet as i could
you can’t give me back what you’ve taken
but you can give me something that’s almost as good

[chorus 3]
i’m getting into knives
i am getting into knives
behold, i stand at the door, and i knock
and then i knock twice
i’ve adjusted my focus
i’m getting into knives

[outro]
alright, been a long time
we didn’t practice this, let’s see what happens
