Don’t Make a Sound

I set the scene to tell the tale
Who could have known his face would pale?
Life is never what you want
Unless you plan it from the start
Now, wouldn't that be smart?

Don't make a sound as I cry out
Is that what love is all about?
Don't make a sound as I call out
I know that's not what love's about
Don't make a sound don't make a sound
Don't make a sound

So this is how it always goes
And what is real, we'll never know
Trust me, now I know firsthand
My fiction leads my real life and
This isn't what I planned

Don't make a sound as I cry out
Is that what love is all about?
Don't make a sound as I call out
I know that's not what love's about
Don't make your sound don't make a sound
Don't make the sound

My melody's my malady
My hand inscribes my grave
I told you once, I'll tell you twice
There's nothing left to say
I don't know what I've been told
My memory escaped
So don't try to refresh my mind
I've reasoned it that way just shhhhhhhh

Don't make a sound as I cry out
Is that what love is all about?
Don't make a sound as I call out
I know that's not what love's about
Don't make a sound don't make a sound
Don't make a sound don't make a sound
Don't make a sound don't make a sound
Don't make a sound don't make a sound
Don't make a sound
