Tears to Shed Lyrics

MAGGOT
What does that whispy 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 feel no 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 only 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
