Sorrow and its companions leans on me
The wretched redemption
I feel like a rootless and hollow treee
So I turn to you again

All beauty and eyes so green
The waves of fever come and go
In nightmares and in dreams

Do I read between your lines?
Do you read between mine?
I pray that you do
To that only emptiness that i know
Because love is a murderer
And hope is a thief

If you say the word i shall bury my heart
And bury it deep
I know the stars aren't right
And my heart is crooked and half dead
There's a whole universe to fight
But i'd trade it all for your love in its stead

All on my knees for you girl
With that beauty wreath on your face
If you ever ask me
I would kill everybody in the human race
