When the tears are enough
And so i have been away
What is left to come back to
Makes it worse to stay

Hiding things from the corners
Of the things from the past
But the paintings remind me
That we were two of a cast

(chorus)
Never count on a tiger,
Never play with the fire
Don't remind me of home
Cause i've been out in the west,
Writing letters of love
That's the law of life

I've been filled up with hunger
For a mail to be mine
I've been building a house too
Like i've been building desire

Sometimes words are despiteful
And sometimes they are blind
But my longing is frightful,
I'm screaming time after time
