Don't Say A Word (Live At Wacken 2013)

Sonata Arctica - Don't Say A Word
Reckoning Night (2004)
by Lilith7

I am your poison candygram
The love that's meant to fade away
Vade retro, alter ego
move aside, I'm choking on this life
I think I tolerate your hate
as long as you're afraid
All I wanted was to be with you and suffer every day.. .

Under the moon I hold a wake for a promise torn
Mortally wounded, feelings sheltered me
Once again my shadow will enter your life
Time to walk with me the last mile. ..

Mother always said 'my son, '
'do the noble thing...'
You have to finish what you started
no matter what,
Now, sit, watch and learn...
'It's not how long you live'
', but what your morals say'
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word ...
don't say a word

It won't be long now, love, like mist I slowly fill the room
I place a black candle on your chest,
the path of night is manifest
I never wanted us to end up in this catatonic phase
It wasn't me who ran away
you made me stray...

Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, whore
Make me believe it, oh I know you lie
Broke the vow I thought you made, my angel, why...
Settling the score, we pass the twilight...

Mother always said 'my son, '
'do the noble thing...'
You have to finish what you started
no matter what,
Now, sit, watch and learn...
'It's not how long you live'
', but what your morals say'
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word...
don't say a word

Strawberry blonde, yourstranglehold
on my heart is bound to end
I suppose, life sometimes,
it doesn't go the way it was meant
Though you never were a believer,
I assure you: I won't die before you
You read the book now,
the part 'Ashes to ashes,'
'dust to dust'

Closing your eyes, don't ever say you love me, whore
You never meant a word, I know you lied
When there is life, there is despair, indulge me now
And stay alive this night...
I promise you the end before the first light arrives...

Mother always said 'my son, '
'do the noble thing...'
You have to finish what you started
no matter what,
Now, sit, watch and learn...
'It's not how long you live'
', but what your morals say'
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word...
don't say a word

Mother always said 'my son, '
'do the noble thing...'
You have to finish what you started
no matter what,
Now, sit, watch and learn...
'It's not how long you live'

Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word...
don't say a word
