lyrics

NO TOUCH, NO HELP, NO FOOD, NO LOVE

No pain, no palm
No thorns, no crown
No gall, no glory
No cross, no crown

No touch, No help, No food, No love

What can we do
Hearts broke in two
What can you see
Look around, see me

Shut ears, shut eyes
Cold stares, white lies
Fold arms, turned heads
Fine words, empty beds

No pain, no palm
No thorns, no crown
No gall, no glory
No cross, no crown

No touch, No help, No food, No love

Close by there is
An end to all this
Please come, come soon
Bring help, kill the moon

There are some friends
Few and far, but fellow men
To find them we try
We sing out loud, we wave bye-bye

No pain, no palm
No thorns, no crown
No gall, no glory
No cross, no crown

No touch, No help, No food, No love

No wings to fly
Just us to try
All day we find
Say out loud, you’re not kind
Fall down, breathe hard
Run fast, say out loud
You’re right, we’ve been wrong
Take this heart, make a song

No pain, no palm
No thorns, no crown
No gall, no glory
No cross, no crown

No touch, No help, No food, No love
