      Em
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
                Bm
Maybe we could take some time
                 A
Unwind, figure out
           Em                             Bm A
When the knife of insight tore its way in me

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

Chorus:
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
After dark, after light
Oh, after dark, after light

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

Chorus:
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 out
Love a little, oh it's all allowed
Beautiful how it all pours out
After dark, after light
After dark, after light
