No Kind Words - The Maccabees

Dear friend of mine has broken his union

Broke from tradition

Broken his vision of the future

Alone alone alone

Not alone at all

Dear friend of mine is testing his body

Tempting disaster

Testing water with another’s daughter

Alone alone alone

Not alone at all

Dear friend of mine, my ear is bending

I’m not helping

I’m not telling

I’m not solving

I’m not saying you’re pretending

Alone alone alone

Not alone at all

Dear friend of mine is helpless without helping

Healed without scab or scar

New union found him alone

Alone alone alone

Not alone at all

If you’ve got no kind words to say

You should say nothing more at all

If you’ve got no kind words to say

You should say nothing more at all

If you’ve got no kind words to say

Carry no weight

Let the weight carry you

If you’ve got no kind words to say

You should say nothing more at all
