[Verse 1]
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?

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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...

[Chorus]
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
