11 - 43
Why should I play this game of pretend
Remembering through a secondhand sorrow
Such a great son and wonderful friend
Oh, don't the tears just fall
I could curl up and hide in my room
There in my bed still sobbing tomorrow
I could give in to all of the gloom
But, tell me
Tell me what for?
Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I start to break in pieces?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why should I play the grieving girl and lie?
Saying that I miss you
And that my world
Has gone dark without your light
I will sing no requiem tonight
I gave you the world,
you threw it away
Leaving these broken pieces behind you
Everything wasted,
Nothing to say
So I can sing no requiem
I hear your voice and feel you near
Within these words I finally find you
And now that I know that you are still here
I will sing no requiem tonight
Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I say I'll keep you with me?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why should I play the grieving girl and lie?
Saying that I miss you
And that my world
Has gone dark without your light
(I can see your light)
I will sing no requiem tonight
Cause when the villains fall
The kingdoms never weep
No one lights a candle to remember
No
No one mourns it all
When they lay them down to sleep
So don't tell me that I didn't have it right
Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white
After all you put me through
Don't say it wasn't true
That you were not the monster
That I knew
Cause I play the grieving girl and lie?
Saying that I miss you
And that my world
Has gone dark
I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem
Tonight
Remembering through a secondhand sorrow
Such a great son and wonderful friend
Oh, don't the tears just fall
I could curl up and hide in my room
There in my bed still sobbing tomorrow
I could give in to all of the gloom
But, tell me
Tell me what for?
Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I start to break in pieces?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why should I play the grieving girl and lie?
Saying that I miss you
And that my world
Has gone dark without your light
I will sing no requiem tonight
I gave you the world,
you threw it away
Leaving these broken pieces behind you
Everything wasted,
Nothing to say
So I can sing no requiem
I hear your voice and feel you near
Within these words I finally find you
And now that I know that you are still here
I will sing no requiem tonight
Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I say I'll keep you with me?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why should I play the grieving girl and lie?
Saying that I miss you
And that my world
Has gone dark without your light
(I can see your light)
I will sing no requiem tonight
Cause when the villains fall
The kingdoms never weep
No one lights a candle to remember
No
No one mourns it all
When they lay them down to sleep
So don't tell me that I didn't have it right
Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white
After all you put me through
Don't say it wasn't true
That you were not the monster
That I knew
Cause I play the grieving girl and lie?
Saying that I miss you
And that my world
Has gone dark
I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem
Tonight
