lyrics

Of how they married in the night,
I heard a bitter herb was served as wine
and then a veil of tears she wept,
for the life they thought they might've led.

Distant feelings from the past,
I saw your silhouette inside the glass
Your body raised in shapes she knew,
and image of a bride and not a groom.

I don't wanna hang from you,
Even if this is the end,
I won't hang from you.

And then they slept on the same bed,
Became sisters of the tears they shed,
They heard the same electric cry
for a boy who couldn't sleep tonight.

You were my friend in truth,
even when you told the whole world about my ugly tooth
with a stick and a crooked grin,
through the gate that breaks the fence I escape again.

I don't wanna be the victim of your horrible crime,
I don't wanna be the dancer in your lime light,
I have seen the evil way you treat the people you like,
My little sister was a dandelion in your eyes,
and she got scattered in the wind.
