The first cut
Is a criminal thing
The first cut
Goes deeper in

Each impression
Makes a chain reaction
Each impression
Will never be never be never be never be broken

I'm a white girl
You can see my skin
Look at this picture
That I'm living in

And old scores never settle down
I'll keep on walking
Till I'm buried in the cold ground
Cold ground, cold cold ground

Each impression
Makes a chain reaction
Each impression
Will never be never be never be never be broken

The first cut
The first cut
The first cut
The first cut

The first cut
The first cut
The first cut
...
