In stone palace iron clad she found my soul
Seduced through a night screaming fever sirens grow
Jested she'd said her warning said she stabbed him in the back
Said that was his reward for living not a single day

She broke the news in my head
Silent to the world she said Carlos is dead

Followed a trail to show me his face
To show me his eyes cold perfectly still
I told him I was there to rescue him
But he stole my words lost to the silence of the night
The silence of my frights

She told me she once knew a man who resembled me
But I knew in her eyes I was not the man she seeked
He too climbed stairs to a room that's empty
I screamed a tear and I broke down
I'm on my knees I'm knowing

She'd put the knife in my hand
Say blood would forever stain my skin
I must be losing my mind
Coz I knew my hopes they died with him

Tomorrows slipping away- now now
Hush those things that you say
