"I Come With Knives" is the second release taken from the fifth IAMX studio album The Unified Field. On 8 February 2013, it made its world premiere on Berlin-based radio station Flux FM.[1] The video was premiered on 1 March.
The video, shot in Joshua Tree, California, shows Chris in dark clothes running around the barren landscape as live band members Janine Gezang and Sammi Doll dance about.
The German samples:
Kinder und Sterne küssen und verlieren sich
Greifen leise meine Hand und führen mich
Die Traumgötter brachten mich in eine Landschaft
Schmetterlinge flatterten durch meine Seele
In der Mitternacht
translate as follows:
Children and stars are kissing and losing themselves (or: each other)Quietly taking my hand and leading meThe gods of dreams brought me to a landscapeButterflies fly through my soulAt midnight
