歌詞

I walked with eyes lifted high

But tears just wouldn’t dry

Rolling down my cheeks, they fell

Whispered goodbyes, a fading spell

Why does sadness weigh so deep?

Why’s this pain I cannot keep?

I’m crying out but no one hears

Inside I’m screaming through the years

Wishes lost, prayers denied

I know they’re just words I hide

But still, yeah, but still

Let my wishes fly!

Let my prayers reach high!

If it’s just a song, then even more

Let the words resound!

Let my soul shake free!

From the grip of my heart

I squeeze out every drop

Of crimson tears

Today can be changed

Tomorrow rearranged

A flash of truth

Falls from my chest, breaking through

The silence hurts so much

Not ’cause I can’t shout

Not ’cause I can’t sing

Only true sounds will ring

Wishes lost, prayers denied

I know they’re just words I hide

But still, yeah, but still

Forgive me, my friends!

Pray on, all people!

Let our song echo through the night

Sound, pierce the air!

Silent desperation!

From the grip of my heart

I squeeze out every drop

Of crimson tears

If the song can’t be hummed

Then it’s empty inside

But what’s in my hands

Is a hidden will of steel

Let my wishes fly!

Let my prayers reach high!

If it’s just a song, then even more

Let the words resound!

Let my soul shake free!

From the grip of my heart

I squeeze out every drop

Of crimson tears

If you find the words

That mark your heart forever—

That’s Crimson Tears
