Lyrics
Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can't you understand?
Oh, my little girl

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable

(All I ever wanted)
(All I ever needed)
(Is here in my arms)
(Words are very unnecessary)
(They can only do harm)
Yeah, that's right!

Alright
C'mon now, let's hear you sing it

(All I ever wanted)
(All I ever needed)
(Is here in my arms)
(Words are very unnecessary)
(They can only do harm)

(All I ever wanted)
(All I ever needed)
(Is here in my arms)
(Words are very unnecessary)
(They can only do harm)
Ah, that's right!

Move it!

Mmm, he's got the moves!

Ooh, yeah!

Ladies and gentleman
Boys and girls
Mister Martin L.
Gore!

Enjoy the silence
Thank you
