Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Scarred, your back was turned
Curled like an embryo
Take another face
You will be kissed again
[Verse 2]
I was cold as I mouthed the words
And crawled across the mirror
I wait, await the next breath
Your name like ice into my heart
[Verse 3]
A shallow grave
A monument to a ruined age
Ice in my eyes
And eyes like ice don't move
[Verse 4]
Screaming at the moon
Another past time
[Verse 5]
Your name like ice
Into my heart
[Verse 6]
Everything as cold as life
(Can no one save you?)
Everything as cold as silence
(And you will never say a word)
[Verse 7]
Your name like ice
Into my heart
[Verse 8]
Your name like ice
Into my heart
Written by: Laurence Tolhurst, Robert Smith, Simon Gallup
