Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Words like violence break the silence
They come crashing through, into my little world
Painful to me, pierce right through me
Can't you understand? Oh, my little girl
[Verse 2]
All you ever wanted
All you ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
[Verse 3]
Vows are spoken to be broken
Feelings are intense, words are trivial
Pleasures remain, so does the pain
Words are meaningless and forgettable
[Verse 4]
All you ever wanted
All you ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
[Verse 5]
All you ever wanted
All you ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
[Verse 6]
All you ever wanted
All you ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
