Chorus:

Abandon words

And perish the thought

Take away the slanders of evil

You forbid more than you protect

You will lose the sense and the meaning

Somewhere between respect and correct

Abandon words

Abandon words


Short hours

Abandon words

Abandon hope

Abandon fear

Abandon love

Abandon tears

Abandon vengeance and remorse

Abandon and of course

Abandon thought

Abandon need

Abandon justice

How I plead


(Repeat Chorus)


Short hours

Abandon words

Abandon hope

Abandon fear

Abandon love

Abandon tears

Abandon vengeance and remorse

Abandon and of course

Abandon thought

Abandon need

Abandon justice

How I plead

Abandon shame

Abandon lies

Abandon crime

Abandon need

Abandon virtue to begin with

Abandon grace

Abandon sin

Abandon faith and then belief


Abandon words

And perish the thought

Take away the language of evil

You forbid more than you protect

You will lose the sense and the meaning

Somewhere between respect and correct

Abandon words

Abandon words
