lyrics

Tears fall dry

Take a stab at my thoughts
Take a shot kill them all
Better that than say nothing at all

It seems the words run out, before the tears fall dry

Sacrifice my dreams
On the altar of your choice
Don’t block out my screams
Your last chance to hear my voice

before the words run out, before the tears run dry, and you wonder why

Woe I know what a waste. I could have saved my breath I wish Id held my tongue, I would have stayed young
I might have savoured the taste from my lover’s lips; I would have held on tight, if I’d told you before
The words ran out, the tears fell dry

You decline when I ask
Do you think a love can last?
Stony ground, deaf ears
You don’t know, what you don’t hear

It seems words ran out, before the tears fell dry, and you wondered why
