lyrics

No One Must Say Anything
Composed by Chris Altmann © Mushroom Music Publishing

There’s, there’s a shadow movin’ cross your face
And it runnin’ to some other place in time
It’s leavin’ you behind
If, if you wanna see another day
Better listen for a voice you recognise
Watch out for the spies

No-one must say anything
We all know that it’s all true
No-one must say anything
Least of all not to you
No-one must say anything
And you make out you knew

There’s, there’s a devil hangin’ on your back
And it’s drinkin’ all the blood out of your veins
Suckin’ on the stains
Cold, cold and shakin’ and your lips are blue
There’s a shadow of the branch against the sky
It’s wavin’ you goodbye
No-one must say anything
We all know that it’s all true
No-one must say anything
Least of all not to you
No-one must say anything
And you make out knew

We keep pretendin’ that we just don’t see
See you slippin’ from the rail you’re hangin’ to
Slowly getting through

No-one must say anything
We all know that it’s all true
No-one must say anything
Least of all not to you
No-one must say anything
And you make out you knew
And you make out you knew
And you make out you knew
