Don\'t Say a Word歌词

(Prelude)
You are my poison candygram
A love that's meant to fade away
(Vade retro, alter ego)
Move aside, I'm choking on my life
You think I tolerate your hate, as long as I'm afraid
But all I wanted was to be with you
(And suffer every day...)
Under the moon you hold a wake for a promise torn
Mortally wounded (feelings sheltered me)
Once again your shadow will enter my life
Time to walk with me the last mile...
We read a book about a man, a love, a woman, how they died
(How I was waved aside) listen to the headless doves cry
You truly see a madman in the mirror when you're weak
We spent a year in love (...before I realized what you see...)
Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, no
Make me believe it, ah I know you lie
You broke the vow I thought you made, oh why...
Could I make you wait out the night?
I always said "My love, do the noble thing..."
You have to finish what you started, no matter what
Now, sit, watch and learn...
"It's not how long you live, but what your morals say"
Cannot keep the part of the deal
So don't say a word... don't say a word
(...It won't be long now, love, like mist I slowly fill the room...)
You placed a candle on my chest
The path of night is manifest
I never wanted us to end up in this catatonic phase
It wasn't me who ran away, you made me stray...
Open your blue eyes, tell me do you love me? (no)
Make me believe it, oh I know you lied
You broke the vow I thought you made, oh why?
I always said"My love, do the noble thing..."
You have to finish what you started, no matter what
Now, sit, watch and learn...
"It's not how long you live, but what your morals say"
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word... don't say a word
You strawberry blonde, your stranglehold on my heart is bound to end
(I suppose, life sometimes, it doesn't go the way it was meant)
Though you were never a believer, I won't die before you
(You read the book and delivered the verse "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust")

Short is the fight of this little starling
When love it sounds familiar to me, we had it all so sweet
Ah now the truth is revealed...
No word you choose to speak tonight can make this pain alright
No, don't cry for me, now darling
The wounds are far too deep, I need to keep the scars
To prove there was a time when I loved you more than life
Unlike the last time here I now am most sincere
The truth has now revived, the king is dead but the queen is alive

Closing your eyes, don't ever dare to say you love me, no
You never meant a word, I know you lied
When there is life, there is despair, indulge me now
And stay alive this night before the first light arrives...
I always said "My love, do the noble thing..."
You have to finish what you started, no matter what
Now, sit, watch and learn...
"It's not how long you live, but what your morals say"
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word... don't say a word
I'll always say "My son, do the noble thing..."
You strawberry blonde, your stranglehold on my heart is bound to end
Though you were never a believer, I will not die before you
