Whisper Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and it's all over now
Speaking to the atmosphere
No one's here and I fall into myself
This truth drives me
Into madness

[Pre-Chorus]
I know I can stop the pain (Ah)
If I will it all away (Ah)
If I will it all away

[Chorus]
Don't turn away
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide
(Though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light
(Never sleep, never die)

[Verse 2]
I'm frightened by what I see
But somehow I know that there's much more to come (Ah, ah)
Immobilized by my fear
And soon to be blinded by tears

[Pre-Chorus]
I can stop the pain (Ah)
If I will it all away (Ah)
If I will it all away

[Chorus]
Don't turn away
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide
(And though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light
(Never sleep, never die)

[Bridge]
Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices at my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
She beckons me, shall I give in?
Upon my end, shall I begin
Forsaking all I've fallen for?
I rise to meet the end (I rise to meet the end)
(Ah)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Don't turn away
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide
(And though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light
(Never sleep, never die)
Don't turn away (Servatis a periculum)
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide (Servatis a maleficum)
(And though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes (Servatis a periculum)
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light (Servatis a maleficum)
(Never sleep, never die)
Don't turn away (Servatis a periculum)
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide (Servatis a maleficum)
(Though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes (Servatis a periculum)
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light (Servatis a maleficum)
(Never sleep, never die)

[Outro]
Servatis a periculum
Servatis a maleficum
Servatis a periculum
Servatis a maleficum
Servatis a periculum
Servatis a maleficum
Servatis a periculum
Servatis a maleficum
Servatis a periculum
Servatis a maleficum
Servatis a periculum
Servatis a maleficum
Servatis a periculum
Servatis a—
