Letra da Música Tears To Shed de Helena Bonham Carter

Tears to shed

Maggot
What does that wispy little brat have that you don't have double?

Black widow
She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile

Corpse bride
How about a pulse?

Maggot
Overrated by a mile

Black widow
Overbearing

Maggot
Overblown

Maggot and black widow
If he only knew the you that we know

Corpse bride
(sigh)

Black widow
And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring

Maggot
And she doesn't play piano

Maggot and black widow
Or dance

Maggot
Or sing

Maggot and black widow
No she doesn't compare

Corpse bride
But she still breathes air

Black widow
Who cares?

Maggot
Unimportant

Black widow
Overrated

Maggot
Overblown

Maggot and black widow
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know

Corpse bride
If I touch a burning candle I can't feel the pain
If you cut me with a knife it's still the same
And I know her heart is beating
And I know that I am dead
Yet the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
For it seems that I still have a tear to shed

Maggot
The sure redeeming feature
From that little creature
Is that she's alive

Black widow
Overrated

Maggot
Overblown

Black widow
Everybody know that's just a temporary state
Which is cured very quickly when we meet our fate

Maggot
Who cares?

Black widow
Unimportant

Maggot
Overrated

Black widow
Overblown

Maggot and black widow
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know

Corpse bride
If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
In the ice or in the sun it's all the same
Yet I feel my heart is aching
Though it doesn't beat it's breaking
And the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
I know that I am dead
Yet it seems that I still have some tears to shed
