Billy Joel - Stiletto lyrics

She cuts you once, she cuts you twice But still, you believe The wound is so fresh, you can taste the blood But you don't have strength to leave You've been bought, you've been sold You've been locked outside the door But you stand there pleadin' With your insides bleedin' 'Cause deep down, you want some more When she says she wants forgiveness, It's such a clever masquerade She's so good with her stiletto You don't even see the blade You don't see the blade She cuts you hard, she cuts you deep She's got so much sk** She's so fascinating that you're still there waiting When she comes back for the k** You've been slashed in the face You've been left there to bleed You want to run away But you know you're gonna stay 'Cause she gives you what you need Then she says she needs affection While she searches for the vein, She's so good with her stiletto You don't really mind the pain You don't mind the pain INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE She cuts you out, she cuts you down She carves up your life But you won't do nothing as she keeps on cutting 'Cause you know you love the knife You've been bought, you've been sold You've been locked outside the door But you stand there pleadin' With your insides bleedin' 'Cause deep down, you want some more Then she says she wants affection While she searches for the vein She's so good with her stiletto You don't really mind the pain You don't mind the pain
