Lyrics

I’m lying in my room
back’s against the wall
the voices in my head
playing with my heart
They say the drink won’t drown you
smoke won’t burn your eyes
idle hands are the devil’s playthings
now the world starts to fall
Moon never rises
stars don’t shine
walking thru the darkness
until these days of sorrow pass on by
Outside birds are singing
flowers start to bud
the vines have nearly covered
the place we used to rest
Forgotten and forsaken
the day my lover left
sweeping up the ashes
scattered by the wind
Moon never rises
stars don’t shine
walking thru the darkness
until these days of sorrow pass on by
Sin amor la luna no brilla en mí
