Hear Her Confession

Lyrics

Days of mist, nights of despair
What is the moonlight for her
Although she smiles her pain is still there
Remembering who they were
She wanted freedom, she wanted to feel as a woman
But chains tied her heart
Since he left her, she wanted to heal
Not to be what the man saw as art

She burned the books of love and beliefs
The Lord was never there
The old monarch was all but relieved
Why are you whispering

Hear her confession, hear her regrets
She wanted love but it’s a Russian roulette
Hear her confession, deep in success
He ruled her head, she dissolved in that mess

Why is the man always the beast
What is the striving to own
Look, he’s running away from the priest
He realized that his chances are gone
The woman wanted freedom, she wanted to feel like a bird
But chains tied her heart
Since he left her, she wanted to heal
Not to be what the man saw as art

She burned the books of love and beliefs
The Lord was never there
The old monarch was all but relieved

Why are you whispering to me, my dear
We are all lost wrecks, soon we’ll be there
Your red lips are seen on the rim of your glass
With your confession, he’ll finally be dust
But look around you, there is no one to trust

Hear her confession, hear her regrets
She wanted love but it’s a Russian roulette
Hear her confession, deep in success
He ruled her head, she dissolved in that mess

Hear her confession, hear her regrets
She wanted love but it’s a Russian roulette
Hear her confession, deep in success
He ruled her head, she dissolved in that mess
She wanted freedom but lost her own heart
God will never confess, who created the dark
So why are you whispering to me, my dear
