Bitter Melody

Your palm slides across my cheek
Caresses but not too weak
My voice holds back, I don’t scream
Just a statue that can’t speak

The taste of your tongue and your words
Not a sentence left unheard
Will you hold me always close?
And I will drown in all dead noise

Ch.
Sing a song to me
Bitter melody
Raise your voice
Don’t you speak
It’s still too loud to breathe
Too late to cry
Too soon to know
It’s time to lie
Time to go

You hold my hand, the grip so tight
Stroll across the road trough night
There’s no clouds, I can’t see the sun
Your fingertips, like a loaded gun

The nothings you whisper to me
All are far away from sweet
I’ll never live to see my end
It gets worse behind this bend

Ch.
Sing a song to me
Bitter melody
Raise your voice
Don’t you speak
It’s still too loud to breathe
Too late to cry
Too soon to know
It’s time to lie
Time to go

Hope for all the hopeless is a lie
Hope always the first to die
My mistake I never knew
Your mistake, you didn’t too

Ch.
Sing a song to me
Bitter melody
Raise your voice
Don’t you speak
It’s still too loud to breathe
Too late to cry
Too soon to know
It’s time to lie
Time to go

When I do, I make mistakes
It’s better if I never do
If I try it’s not your right
Then I’ll never try again

Ch.
Sing a song to me
Bitter melody
Raise your voice
Don’t you speak
It’s still too loud to breathe
Too late to cry
Too soon to know
It’s time to lie
Time to go

It’s nothing, we’re nothing
I’m nothing because you drain me
It’s nothing, I’m not a thing
I’ll never be, I’ll never be
You won’t ever let me

…

Your palm slides across my cheek
Caresses but not too weak
My voice holds back, I do not scream
Just a statue that can’t speak
