It goes like:
give me your best knife / so we can cut this into two / and tomorrow forget - damn, the translation just couldn't sound any worse than this, haha.
But yeah, the lyrics and the heart they put in every song it's what really makes the band stand out, because, let's face it, they're not genius or groundbreaking or anything like that.
