When the Scream Subsides (2009 Remaster) Lyrics

(And we talk) just the two of us
(All the time) nothing serious
(We pretend) time is on our side
('Til the end) when the scream subsides
Yes, we had it all, had the key gripped in our hands
We could see the fall as a martyr understands
When the chorus calls, there's no room for hope inside
Lose it all when the scream subsides
(And we talk) just the two of us
(All the time) nothing serious
(We pretend) time is on our side
('Til the end) when the scream subsides
Yes, we took the role of the lovers and the friends
And we played the parts 'til the words came to an end
But the tongues were tied in the passion and the pride

Wasted all when the scream subsides
(And we talk)
(All the time)
(We pretend)
('Til the end)
(And we talk) oh, just the two of us
(All the time) nothing serious
(We pretend) time was on our side
('Til the end) when the scream subsides
(And we talk) just the two of us
(All the time) nothing serious
(We pretend) time was on our side
('Til the end) 'til the scream subsides
