"Don't Say A Word" lyrics - XANDRIA

I am your poison candygram
The love that's meant to fade away
(Vade retro, alter ego)
Move aside, I'm choking on this life
I think I tolerate your hate, as long as you're afraid
All I wanted was to be with you
(And suffer every day...)

Under the moon I hold a wake for a promise torn
Mortally wounded (feelings sheltered me)
Once again my shadow will enter your life
Time to walk with me the last mile...

I read a book about a man, a love, a woman, how they died
(How I was waved aside) listen how the headless doves cry
I truly see a madman in the mirror when I'm weak
I spent a year in love (...before I realized it's me...)

Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, whore
Make me believe it, ah I know you're lying
Broke the vow I thought you made, my angel, why...
Could I let you wait out the night?

Mother 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

(...It won't be long now, love, like mist I slowly fill the room...)
I place a black candle on your 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 that you love me (...whore...)
Make me believe it, oh I know you're lying
Broke the vow I thought you made, my angel, why...
Settling the score, we pass the twilight...

Mother 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

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 never were a believer, I assure you: I won't die before you
(You read the book now - the part "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust")

Short is the fight of this little starling
Love sounds familiar too, we had it all so sweet
[?] the truth is real...
No word you choose to speak tonight can make this be alright
No, don't cry for me, oh, argentite

The wounds are 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 king is dead but the queen is alive

Closing your eyes, don't ever say you love me, whore
You never meant a word, I know you lied
When there is life, there is despair, indulge me now
And stay alive this night...
I promise you the end before the first light arrives...

Mother 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

Mother always said "My son, 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!
