Nights we spent
     In plazas moonlit

Severina sits... dimly lit
  ... Married too young
      ... with her songs unsung
I'm watching her die.

To gravestones and parks
     and streets unmarked
Enemies at first
     Best friends we're cursed

I thought you were stronger
I thought you were stronger
Guess... I was wrong!

Severina sits... dimly lit
  ... Married too young
      ... with her songs unsung
So the world passed her by
... I'm forced to watch her die.


What was best
      the solace as you dressed
Nothing compares
    when we were there
Long hours spent
    all the money lent
The music you played
     inspired my way

I thought you were stronger
I thought you were stronger
Guess... I was wrong!

Severina sits... dimly lit
  ... married too young
     ... with her songs unsung
So the world passed her by
... I'm forced to watch her die.
