Lyrics mewithoutYou

mewithoutYou

Silencer

Don't waste your lips on words I've heard before

Kiss my tired head.

And each letter written wastes your hand, young man

Come and lead me to your bed

You gave me hope that I'd not lost her

And then thought it rather strange to see me smile-

as I don't do too much smiling these days.

She put on happiness like a loose dress

Over pain I'll never know

"So the peace you had," she said,

"I must confess, I'm glad to see it go."

We're two white roses lying frozen just outside his door

I've made you so happy and so sad,

But which should I be more sorry for?

Come kiss my face goodbye,

that space below my eye and above my cheek

Cause I'm faint and fading fast, I see a darkness

And I shall be released.

I'll pass like a fever from this body,

And softly slip into his hands

I tried to love you and I failed,

But I have another plan.

How long, My Lord, how long to sing this song?

And my Lord, how muchmore of this pretending to be strong?

When she stands before your throne

Dressed in beauty not her own

All soft and small, you'll hear her call

"you brought me here, now take me home."
