Straight For The Knife by Sia
Lyrics & Translation
English
Put on my best dress, I wanted to impress
I put a little make-up on
Put a bow in my hair, wore pretty underwear
Hoping you might take it off
Don't know your etiquette but
I'm strapped to my chair, and it ain't 'cause you're pretty
You were charming, until
You saw your chance to kill your chance to make history
[Chorus:]
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight, you wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
My mascara a mess, harsh words for your princess
Boy you, and your promises
If your goal was to love, you scored an epic miss
Now you'll just have memories
[Chorus:]
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight, you wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
Boy you draw me back in
I'm hungry for your bad loving
But will someone find me swinging from the rafters
From hanging on your every word
[Chorus:]
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight, you wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
You wonder why you make girls cry

Straight For The Knife (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Me puse mi mejor vestido, quería impresionar
Me puse un poco de maquillaje
Me puse un lazo en el pelo, usé ropa interior bonita
Esperando que te la quitaras
No sé tu etiqueta pero
Estoy atada a mi silla, y no es porque seas guapo
Eras encantador, hasta que
Viste tu oportunidad de matar tu oportunidad de hacer historia
[Chorus:]
Fuiste directo al cuchillo, y yo me preparé para morir
Tu hoja brilla
Me miraste directo a los ojos, subiste el gas al máximo
Mantuviste la llama encendida, te preguntas por qué
Le tengo miedo al fuego
Te preguntas por qué haces llorar a las chicas
Mi rímel un desastre, palabras duras para tu princesa
Chico tú, y tus promesas
Si tu meta era amar, fallaste épicamente
Ahora solo tendrás recuerdos
[Chorus:]
Fuiste directo al cuchillo, y yo me preparé para morir
Tu hoja brilla
Me miraste directo a los ojos, subiste el gas al máximo
Mantuviste la llama encendida, te preguntas por qué
Le tengo miedo al fuego
Te preguntas por qué haces llorar a las chicas
Chico me atraes de nuevo
Estoy hambrienta de tu amor malo
Pero alguien me encontrará colgando de las vigas
De colgarme de cada una de tus palabras
[Chorus:]
Fuiste directo al cuchillo, y yo me preparé para morir
Tu hoja brilla
Me miraste directo a los ojos, subiste el gas al máximo
Mantuviste la llama encendida, te preguntas por qué
Le tengo miedo al fuego
Te preguntas por qué haces llorar a las chicas
Te preguntas por qué haces llorar a las chicas
