Lyrics It Was Mine - AFI

It Was Mine

Don’t move, don’t do anything
What we captured got away
Slipped from us, don’t speak
Don’t, don’t say anything
They’ve been recording all we say
For years now
You won’t see them right away
But you’ll hear them singing
Hold me closely now
But don’t, don’t say anything
They’ve come to take me away
And won’t leave until I’m gone, I’m gone
Don’t feel, don’t love anything
Love attracts all those
Who taint the cherished
Don’t try to, to change anything
Nothing pure can ever stay
You won’t see them right away
But you’ll hear them singing
Hold me closely now
But don’t, don’t say anything
They’ve come to take me away
And won’t leave until I’m gone
They’ll say, «Relax, you’ll be fine»
All we love goes away
They’ll take all you let them find
All we love goes away
It was mine, it was mine
You won’t see them right away
But you’ll hear them singing
Hold me closely but don’t say anything
They’ve come to take me away
And won’t leave until I’m gone
Don’t say anything, don’t say anything
They won’t leave until I’m gone, I’m gone
