Silencer

<br>Don`t waste your lips on words I`ve heard before <br>Kiss my tired head. <br>And each letter written wastes your hand, young man <br>Come and lead me to your bed <br>You gave me hope that I`d not lost her <br>And then thought it rather strange to see me smile- <br>as I don`t do too much smiling these days. <br><br>She put on happiness like a loose dress <br>Over pain I`ll never know <br>&quot;So the peace you had,&quot; she said,<br>&quot;I must confess, I`m glad to see it go.&quot; <br>We`re two white roses lying frozen just outside his door <br>I`ve made you so happy and so sad, <br>But which should I be more sorry for? <br><br>Come kiss my face goodbye,<br>that space below my eye and above my cheek <br>Cause I`m faint and fading fast, I see a darkness <br>And I shall be released. <br>I`ll pass like a fever from this body, <br>And softly slip into his hands <br>I tried to love you and I failed, <br>But I have another plan. <br><br>How long, My Lord, how long to sing this song? <br>And my Lord, how muchmore of this pretending to be strong? <br>When she stands before your throne <br>Dressed in beauty not her own <br>All soft and small, you`ll hear her call <br>&quot;you brought me here, now take me home.&quot;
