Death And The Maiden

Away, oh away
Pass by, savage man of bone
I'm still young
So go, devoted one
And do not dare to touch me
Oh do not touch me

Give me your hand, you fair and tender form
I'm your friend and not here to chastise
Be of good cheer!
There is no cruel in me
Sleep gently in my arms
Oh sleep gently in my arms

Have you ever thought
That roar comes in your direction
That there's a sorrowful inhale
Before the sirens scream
Had you never in mind
That air can choke the breathing
That there's no mercy in cast steel
And flames will not discern

All what once was white
Will be torn from innocence
Tomorrow brings the red
In the still of the night
So stay in white
Leave this barren place behind
There will be no one left
To mourn you, to miss you

Lay you in my arms, my dear innocent
I will hold you tight, I keep you safe
Oh there is just cruel from here
Dream sweet my dear, with your eyes, your eyes wide shut
Dream sweet, with your eyes wide shut

Have you ever thought
That roar comes in your direction
That there's a sorrowful inhale
Before the sirens scream
Had you never in mind
That air can choke the breathing
That there's no mercy in cast steel
And flames will not discern

All what once was white
Will be torn from innocence
Tomorrow brings the red
In the still of the night
So stay in white
Leave this barren place behind
There will be no one left
To mourn you, to miss you

All what once was white
Will be torn from innocence
Tomorrow brings the red
In the still of the night
So stay in white
Leave this barren place behind
There will be no one left
To mourn you, to miss you
