Maggie Rogers - The Knife Lyrics

Raisa Bruner says: " Maggie Rogers may bring to mind a kind of nouveau-hippie sensibility, but on "The Knife" the pop-rock-singer-songwriter puts herself at the unexpected intersection of dance and pop. There are metallic crackles, industrial echoes, rolling, bouncy beats. And over it all, Rogers letting her flexible, expressive voice carry a bright melody with a cutting message: "Oh, the knife of insight brought me to my knees / Broke me down and taught me how to see," she sings with world-weary restraint. The song lifts her back up. "

This should be everywhere. The start is amazing!! Lovely M!!!

This sounds like a strange mixture between Sia and Florence Welch... also a bit of Sigrid if I hear closely and at the same time like something totally new. I love it 😍😍😍 I subscribed hopefully our future big independent artist.

This song. This album. Really channels something special inside me.

This is straight fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥

This song is 🔥🔥

It sounds like Totals song "Can't you see "featuring Notorious BIG.

Can still feel the energy that coursed through the venue when you slid to your knees

Lyrics:
The knife of insight tore its way in me
A brash collision without sympathy
And maybe when the sun goes down
I'll come ‘round, I'll come out
Maybe we could take some time
Unwind, figure out
When the knife of insight tore its way in me

Oh, hit me up if you’re feeling down
Give a little, oh we'll figure this out
Keep me up, keep my mind around
After dark, after light
Let it go if you want, get loud
Make a little fuss, oh it's all allowed
Beautiful how it all pours out
After dark, after light
After dark, after light

Oh, the knife of insight brought me to my knees
Broke me down and taught me how to see
And I know, and I know, and I know that maybe we should
Take some time, get this out, make this right
Maybe when the sun goes down
I'll come ‘round, tell you all about
When the knife of insight brought me to my knees

Oh, hit me up if you’re feeling down
Give a little, oh we'll figure this out
Keep me up, keep my mind around
After dark, after light
Let it go if you want, get loud
Spark a little, oh it's all allowed
Beautiful how it all pours out
After dark, after light
Whoa, after dark, after light
Oh, oh

And maybe I’m crazy, maybe you know
But I’ve got this feeling it’s all ‘bout to blow
Maybe I’m crazy, or maybe you know that
I’ve got this feeling it’s all about to blow
When the knife, the knife, the knife
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, hit me up if you’re feeling down
Give a little, oh we'll figure this out
Keep me up, keep my mind around
After dark, after light
Let it go if you want, get loud
Love a little, oh it's all allowed
Beautiful how it all pours out
After dark, after light
Oh, after dark, after light
After dark, after light
Oh, oh
Beautiful, down low
Oh it’s all after dark
And the knife
Oh, the knife
Oh

Soo Deep

These lyrics are gangster af

Yes! Thank you for posting these lyrics. I've been stumbling over some words that I couldn't figure - LOL!
I think the third line in the chorus is "Keep me up, keep my mind turned 'round"

Lyrics sites say 'torques it's way' not 'tore it's way', and that's what I hear.

Man this album sounds goood

Amazingg songgg

I need a MV for this so good!!! Please make this your next single, the whole world deserves to hear this!!

Sia wants her hit back #jealous

Darren Pearlman I thought this song sounded like something from sia? Do you know the song name? Or is it just the sound of her voice that reminds me of said voice? if you could answer I would greatly appreciate it, have a wonderful day!

Hi! I think the song you're looking for is called Waterfall by Pink and Sia@Soporte

malena martinez thank you! It's been driving me nuts trying to figure it out; have a good day/night

@Soporte Keep in mind, this song was produced by Sia's main producer, Greg Kurstin. Those two have worked together for nearly 15+ years, I believe.

Art by Atlas thanks for the fun fact 👌

My wig flew off

IM EARLY AND IM LIVING FOR THIS ALBUM HOPE IT BLOWS UP

Here to say a few things: 1.) The piano that comes in starting at 1:41 makes my heart glow. 😅 Extremely my kinda thing. 2.) Great album! Thank you for sharing it with us! 3.) ❤ GO, MAGGIE, GO!

Oh boy, I read your comment wondering 'what piano' and then it simultaneously hit the 1:41 mark. Maggie is a musican magician, al these delicious layers of goodness.

i think it's the best song in this album . Song is liquid ❤️

Miss the originality of her other album. Nothing stands out

this is originality though??? this is pure beauty.

Thi B lmao ur wrong. This is her first album release. EPS are the same.

Ang Berry no she has two albums but they were for school projects etc. EPs can be three song demos or singles. But these were 12/13 track albums.

Thi B where did you see them? They were never released

aly l type in her name in google

Yo this is a banger!! Love it!! And "Say it"!!!! Get outa here your too good!!

Robert Lucas Da Silva ok same

I’m so mad my pre-order on iTunes isn’t downloading ugh!

I love this so much, the beat reminds me of a 90s R&B song and her vocals are amazing

It reminds me of ... The Knife (the band)

“Let me see what you have” “A knife!” “No!!”

The way that kid said "a knife" always made me laugh. He was running super fast too ahah

This is my favorite song thus far! Can’t wait to hear the full album

Oh god oh fuck

BUMPPPPPP THIS SHIT

I LOVE YOU QUEEN

Maggie! ❤️

Right on... this is great! See you in St Louis with my other friends! We’re coming from pretty far, but your music and presence is TOTALLY worth it! We saw you in Minneapolis, and it was amazing ⚡️

Fiiirst

😍😍😍😍
