Omerta
Vatra · Other Songs - Vatra
zid od tisine
ne okrecem glavu
da ti ne sretnem pogled
Tvoje su suze bojevni metci
pogadjas tocno
obaras s nogu
bodljikavom zicom
Zasili smo usta
na rijeci isprike
rezu i bodu
bodljikavom zicom
Zasili smo usta
ko' se povuce
nek' nastrada prvi
Kad se ukopamo
u rovove ega
nema predaje
nema provlacenja
Ostat' cemo tako
dok nam ne utrnu ruke
umjesto srca
dok ne popucaju zubi
Zasivenih usta
slusam te dises
predaj se, predaj se
Zasivenih usta
slusam te dises
predaj se, bar
jednu rijec mi reci
Omerta
medju nama na snazi
Kad nas podijeli
zid od tisine
ne okrecem glavu
da ti ne sretnem pogled
Tvoje su suze
otrovne strijele
pogadjas tocno u mene
Zasivenih usta
slusam te dises
ma predaj se, predaj se
