dead hearts

[lady beneviento]

Tell me everything that happened
Tell me everything you saw
They had light inside their eyes

Did you see the closing window?
Did you hear the slamming door?
They moved forward, my heart died

Oh please tell me what they looked like
Did they seem afraid of you?
They were kids that I once knew

I could say it but you wont believe me
You say you do but you don't deceive me
It's hard to know they're out there
It's hard to know that you still care

I could say it but you wont believe me
You say you do but you don't deceive me
Dead hearts are everywhere

Did you touch them?
Did you hold them?
Did they follow you to town?
They make me feel I'm falling down

Was there one you saw too clearly?
Did they seem too real to you?

They were kids that I once knew
Now they're all dead hearts to you.
