Constant Knot Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How much would you bet
That if I tried hard enough
I would spontaneously combust?
I wish I could disappear
And run away from all of my fear
I think I'm coming undone

[Chorus]
So stay the night
I promise that I won't bite
'Cause without you there
I don't think I could close my eyes

[Verse 2]
How do I end up this way?
A constant knot in my gut
Tied with uncertainty and with lust
A classic case, I suppose
A haunted man who can't outrun his ghost
They're in my skin and my bones

[Chorus]
So stay the night
I promise that I won't bite
'Cause without you there
I don't think I could close my eyes
[Outro]
And now I sing

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
