Now we drive the night, to the ironies of peace You can't help deny forever The tragedies reside in you The secret sights hide in you The lonely nights divide you in two All my blisters now revealed In the darkness of my dreams In the spaces in between us But nobodies ever knew Nobodys No bodies felt like you Nobodys Love is suicide x4 That's all! Enjoy ;)
