A friend of mine who lived a life of reason
Stood in the cold and was taken by the arm
And now I cry
I cry with every beat of my heart

She put her head down
Sat on the ground
Scattered with her senses
Lost in the whiteness of her broken down defences

Somebody told me about you
Somebody mentioned your name
What's all this happening around you
I'm talking to you

She paid the price for dancing with the devil
She saw the flame with no light in her eyes
Her ghostly smile I'll remember
For the rest of my life

And she went down
Shivered and drowned
She was so helpless
I could not fix it and felt completely useless

Somebody told me about you
Somebody mentioned your name
What's all this happening around you
I'm talking to you
Somebody told me about you
Somebody mentioned your name
What's all this happening around you
I'm talking to you
