There's a line of speech inside us, each is different yet the same And it lies in wait, to shine, to say 'it's over' once again It seems to me, such a tragedy, that love should have to end So I've learned to see just 'I and me' my one and only friend
It's a tribute to the thousands, who have loved and lost in vain Love is born and yet to my regret, it always dies in pain It seems to me, that reality has let me down again As the daylight sleeps, the silence greets my one and only friend My one and only friend, my one and only friend
You bring me down, you never listen to a single word I say I'm just an echo in your ears, you cast away Once again, to a long forgotten place inside your heart But I know it's not the same
For even now, you never ever clear a space or time for me In spite of everything, I've loved you faithfully Can't you see, that I thought my love was safe inside your heart Don't you throw it all away
When I scream inside, I scream to god, I scream 'don't tease me anymore' When I scream inside, I scream 'I'm only made of flesh and bone' When I scream inside, I scream to god, I scream 'don't bleed me anymore' When I scream inside, I scream 'I'll perish, I will turn to stone' Be anything, but all alone
You can be cruel, I knew you'd welcome every chance to break the rules And when you're running out of broken-hearted fools Then you're gone, like an apparition feeding on the hearts That you break along the way
I couldn't see, it's only now I realise what blind can be And now you've finally overstepped the line for me We were one, but I'm better off without you from now on Say goodbye, don't hesitate
When I scream inside, I scream to god, I scream 'don't tease me anymore' When I scream inside, I scream 'I'm only made of flesh and bone' When I scream inside, I scream to god, I scream 'don't bleed me anymore' When I scream inside, I scream 'I'll perish, I will turn to stone' Be anything, but all alone
When I scream inside, I scream to god, I scream 'don't tease me anymore' When I scream inside, I scream 'I'm only made of flesh and bone' When I scream inside, I scream to god, I scream 'don't bleed me anymore' When I scream inside, I scream 'I'll perish, I will turn to stone' Be anything, but all alone
What a world is this when joy and bliss turn sour just the same? It's a precipice, a final kiss extinguishes the flames In a carnival of a life where the excitement never ends Just for now I'll sit in silence with my one and only friend My one and only friend My one and only friend
