Little broken hearts of the night
|
Slowly picking up their knives
|
On the way to the fight
|
Tonight they want revenge
|
|
Beautiful soldiers in their beds
|
Making love inside their hands
|
With no chance to defend
|
Tonight could be their end
|
|
With the weapons in their hands
|
And their eyes closed as they stand
|
Can they end it all tonight so easily?
|
|
Did the darkness of their days
|
Make them let go of their light?
|
Will they want to find a way
|
To make it all right?
|
|
When the beautiful awake
|
See the sadness in their eyes
|
Will they want to find a way
|
To make it all right,
|
To make it all right?
|
|
Only the fallen need to rise
|
What if lightning strikes them twice?
|
Will they give up on their lives
|
And finally divide?
|
|
Did the darkness of their days
|
Make them let go of their light?
|
Can they ever find a way
|
To sleep side by side?
|
|
When the beautiful awake
|
See the sadness in their eyes
|
Will they ever find a way
|
To sleep side by side,
|
To sleep side by side,
|
To sleep side by side?
|
