Lyrics Nuno Bettencourt

Nuno Bettencourt

Stiff

Held your hand i felt you

Jump across the great divide

My world's in global mourning

Yours eternally divine

In this room it's mostly cloudy

Showers not to be dismissed

Raining down in human error

Have we betrayed you with a kiss

Here i'm standing staring at you

Waiting for just one reaction

God i feel so damn frustrated

The pain is hard to bare

Lying there your skin so perfect

Looking like a beauty sleeping

Touching you it makes no sense

You're feeling so cold stiff

And here we eat the lord and savior

Taste the bitterness of loss

Cups are filled with holy spirit

Drunken with the word of god

Veins are flowing nitrogen

Hearts are hardened to a freeze

Ancient iron lung tradition

Breeds a false dichotomy

Your own realit-v show

Speaks these simple final words

Sorry but we're out of time

Thank you and goodnight
