A Smile To Remember

(Music: Matthias Lohwasser, Frank Graffstedt; Lyrics: Frank Graffstedt)

Crack the surface, see my face is broken.
Countless pieces that will never merge again.
Watch my fingers bleeding, drops are falling.
On that floor that I do really know so well!

Your joy to hurt me like all the others.
My life in fear one day after another.
While I was on my knees you smiled at me through gritted teeth.
An unrepentant sinner got the price to pay.
A lamb of God forgotten and gone astray.
Won’t you come help me just to find my way…

You burnt this life inside my heart,
burnt this life inside my soul,
burnt this life inside my mind,
A smile to remember.
A smile to remember.

Through the corridors I hear you calling,
words unspoken show the path that lies ahead.
Don’t ask questions I just have to follow,
someone burnt this codex deep inside my head.

Your joy to brake me like all the others
My life in fear one day after another.
While I was on my knees you smiled at me through gritted teeth.
An unrepentant sinner got the price to pay.
A lamb of God forgotten and gone astray.
Won’t you come help me just to find my way…

You burnt this life inside my heart,
burnt this life inside my soul,
burnt this life inside my mind,
A smile to remember.
A smile….

What would you say if I came back to you,
look into your eyes and show you what you’ve done?
Would you even listen to my words?
Would you receive your wayward son?

You burnt this life inside my heart,
burnt this life inside my soul,
burnt this life inside my mind,
A smile to remember.
A smile to remember.
