Lyrics

Obedience

This is how we try to keep warm

And trust me you'll need it when it's cold

One more thing just so you don't forget

Don't wake him when he's sleeping

Try and hide before he sees you

You can try but I'm that you won't

Don't you cry so that he hears you

I am sure that you won't

And you'll despise yourself for dreaming

Hate yourself for believing

Lie to yourself in obedience

For how long will it be this dark?

The light's been gone since ever

How are we supposed to carry on?

Are we here forever?

And you'll despise yourself for dreaming

Hate yourself for believing

Lie to yourself in obedience. obedience

And you will cry yourself to sleep

Fight yourself to not give in

Lie to yourself in obedience

Does anybody miss her?

Can anybody hear her?

Does anybody scream her name?

Does anybody miss her

Try and hide before he sees you

You can try but I'm that you won't

Don't you cry so that he hears you

But I am sure that you won't

And you'll despise yourself for dreaming

Hate yourself for believing

Lie to yourself in obedience. Obedience

And you will cry yourself to sleep

Fight yourself to not give in

Lie to yourself in obedience. Obedience...
