The Sisters of Mercy - Possession

POSSESSION
words by andrew eldritch
music by hussey/eldritch/adams
Carrion child,
Prey for me,play your
Wild card, see the house come down around your
Head, home to me, so much dreaming
Some say ′m growing cold and
Taking over
Nothing, cuts, two ways.....
Possession: taking over
Stand these pictures on your shelf
And wear your heart upon my sleeve,
Wear a dress that you can see through,
See yourself inside;
I′ll be your imagination,
Tear apart what you believe,
Make a mess of your conviction,
Take away my pride and leave,
Nothing, but the debris,
Cuts, two ways,
Carrion child,
Prey for me, play your
Wild card, see the house come down around your
Possession: taking over.....
Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake;
Possession: taking over.....
Somehow the fact takes over, and the fiction coming through,
Somehow I do my crying breaking down for you,
This way doubt takes over, contradiction coming through,
This way I do my lying, making up and making out for you.....
Possession: taking over
Child(nothing)
Prey for me(but the debris)
Play your wild card(cuts two ways)
Some say I′m growing cold and
Taking over.....Down around your
Head(nothing)
Home to me(but the debris)
So much dreaming, see the house come down around your
Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake shake
Possession: taking over.....
Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake shake
Possession: taking hold

The Sisters of Mercy - No Time to Cry

It′s just a feeling
I get sometimes
A feeling
Sometimes
And I get frightened
Just like you
I get frightened too
but it′s...

(no no no) No time for heartache
(no no no) No time to run and hide
(no no no) No time for breaking down
(no no no) No time to cry

Sometimes in the world as is you′ve
Got to shake the hand that feeds you
It′s just like Adam says
It′s not so hard to understand
It′s just like always coming down on
Just like Jesus never came and
What did you expect to find
It′s just like always here again it′s...

(no no no) No time for heartache
(no no no) No time to run and hide
(no no no) No time for breaking down
(no no no) No time to cry

Everything will be alright
Everything will turn out fine
Some nights I still can′t sleep
And the voices pass with time
And I keep
[repeat]
No time for tears
No time to run and hide
No time to be afraid of fear
I keep no time to cry

(no no no) No time for heartache
(no no no) No time to run and hide
(no no no) No time for breaking down
(no no no) No time to cry

The Sisters of Mercy - Flood II

And her hallway
Moves
Like the ocean
Moves
And her hallway
Moves
Like the sea
Like the sea

She says no no no no harm will come your way
She says bring it on down, bring on the wave
She says: nobody done no harm
Grace of God and raise your arms
She says: face it and it′s a place to stay

This, this is the way it was
This, this is the way it is
When the water come rushing, rushing in

She says
She says anytime
Raise your arms
Flood

And her hallway
Like...
Like...

Like a million voices call my name
Like a million voices calling
Not now, not never again...
Sitting here now in this bar for hours
Strange men rent strange flowers
Seconds to the drop but it feels like hours and i
Think I′m going to...going to...

This, this is the way it was
This, this is the way it is
When the water come rushing, rushing in

She says
She says anytime
Raise your arms
Flood

And her hallway...

She says
She says anytime
Raise your arms
Flood

The Sisters of Mercy - Gimme Shelter

Oh, see the storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don′t get some shelter
Yeah, I′m gonna fade away

War, children
It′s just a kiss away
It′s just a kiss away
Yeah

Oh, see the fire is sweeping
Down through the streets today
Burning like a bright red carpet
Another fool who lost the way

Rape. murder.
It′s just a kiss away
It′s just a kiss away
Yeah

Oh, see the storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don′t get some shelter
Yeah, I′m gonna fade away

Love, sisters
It′s just a shot away
It′s just a shot away
Love, sisters
It′s just a shot away
Shot away
Shot away

War, children
It′s just a kiss away
It′s just a kiss away
War, children
It′s just a kiss away
Kiss away
Kiss away

Rape. murder.
It′s just a kiss away
It′s just a kiss away
Rape. murder.
It′s just a kiss away
Kiss away
Kiss away

The Sisters of Mercy - Walk Away

And in the summer when the clouds show through
I might go the same way too if
You and I could talk together
Well what am i supposed to do with
You and I would walk together
Then with always close around and
Now you gaze toward the doorway
When the weather comes falling down
CHORUS
And when the rain comes down
Would you choose to walk or stay
Would you choose to walk
Would you choose to stay
Would you
Walk walk walk walk walk away
(away)(away) away away (away)away
away away walk away
Would you choose to walk away
And when the rain comes down
Would you choose to walk or stay
Would you choose to walk
Would you choose to stay
Would you
Walk walk walk walk walk away
Though when the day is nearly
Through I might see the same way too if
You would name the things
That bring you down on me so I could say it′s
Not quite true if you don′t really
Know or understand the circumstance
Behind then I might clear your
Mind and you won′t have to go so
CHORUS

The Sisters of Mercy - More

Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don′t know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
One thing I know
I want more
I want more

(and I need all the love that I can′t get to)
(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can′t get to)

D′you get scared to feel so much?
To let somebody touch you?
So hot, so cold, so far so out of control
Hard to come by, and harder to hold

Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don′t know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
I want more

(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can′t get to)
(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can′t get to)

There are parts of me that don′t get nervous
Not the parts that shake
You won′t get what you deserve
You are what you take
Learning to cry for fun and profit
I′m not done yet
Counterfeit dollars or the english zloty
Anything I can get

Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don′t know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
One thing I know
I want more

(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can′t get to)
(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can′t get to)

All the love that you can get
All the love
That I can′t get to...

The Sisters of Mercy - Floorshow

The bodies on the naked on the low damp ground
In the violet hour to the violent sound
And the darkness the blinding the eyes that shine
And the voices and the singing and the line on line
This is the floorshow the clapping hands
Animal flow from the animal glands
In the violet hour to the violent sound
Going round and around and around and around and around

I feel the bite I feel the beat I see the dancing feet
I feel the light I feel the heat I see the new elite
I see the final floorshow I see the western dream
I see the faces glow and I see the bodies steam

See them shimmy see them go
See their painted faces glow
Slow slow quick quick slow
See those pagans go go go go go

This is the floorshow the last ideal
It′s populist got mass appeal
The old religion redefined
For the facile futile totally blind

Mundane by day inane at night
Pagan playing in the flashing light
In the violet hour to the violent sound
Going round and around and around and around and around
And the bodies naked on the low damp ground
In the violet hour to the violet sound
And the darkness the blinding the eyes that shine
And the voices singing line on line

See them shimmy see them go
See their painted faces glow
Slow slow quick quick slow
See those pagans go go go go go

The Sisters of Mercy - Torch

And now the torch
And shadows lead
Were it not so black and not so hard to see
How can it help you when you don′t know what you need
How can anybody set you free?

Would he walk upon the water
If he couldn′t walk away?
And would you
Would you carry the torch
For me?

And what if I gave you the key
To the doors of your design...
Lit the corridors of desire?
Where if not so black
And not so hard to see
What use to you then any fire?

Would he walk upon the water
If he couldn′t walk away?
And would you
Carry the torch for me?

Would he walk upon the water
If he couldn′t walk away?
And would you
Would you carry the torch for me?

Would you carry the torch
For me?
Would you carry the torch
For me?
Would you carry the torch
For me?

The Sisters of Mercy - Afterhours

One more night spent on your mirror
Black Mariah, in your eyes
This stuff so strange and lonely
England fades away
In your eyes

Two O′clock in the morning
Ninety-four degrees

Through the stillness through the heat
The cars go by on fifth and breathing slow
Get up off the floor and angel put your clothes on
It′s time for us to go

Let′s take a ride

The Sisters of Mercy - Alice

Alice pressed against the wall
So she can see the door
In case the laughing strangers crawl and
Crush the petals on the floor

Alice in her party dress
She thanks you kindly
So serene
She needs you like she needs her tranqs
To tell her that the world is clean
To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
Today
Today

Pass the crystal spread the tarot
In illusion comfort lies
The safest way the straight and narrow
No confusion no surprise

Alice in her party dressed to kill
She the thanks you turns away
She needs you like she needs needs her pills
To tell her that the world′s okay
To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
Today
Today

Alice
Don′t give it way

The Sisters of Mercy - Anaconda

Baby buy an anaconda baby buy a thing to wear
She go walking she go crawling she go sliding through the air
She go talking warm and fashion she go talking debonair
But see her face turn to a mask and passion turn to she don′t care

She will she will she will she will let it take her breath away
She will she will she will she will let it take her life away
Let it wrap itself around her till it kill her in it′s way
She will she will she will she will blow away

Baby hit the rush hour traffic get a ride to anywhere
Baby buy the number three she pay the man she pay the fare
Baby hit the wild blue yonder on the mainline on the side
Steal to feed the anaconda will not see the suicide

She will she will she will she will let it take her breath away
She will she will she will she will let it take her life away
Let it wrap itself around her till it kill her in it′s way
She will she will she will she will blow away

Baby finger on the trigger baby shot formaldehyde
Turn into a marble figure turn the matter dead inside
Turn into a china doll maybe go to the final ride
Baby go where I don′t follow baby to the other side

She will she will she will she will let it take her breath away
She will she will she will she will let it take her life away
Let it wrap itself around her till it kill her in it′s way
She will she will she will she will blow away

The Sisters of Mercy - You Could Be The One

All God′s children give good phone
I called Jesus, he′s not home so
I′m so pleased to talk to you
Trees and walks, I love them too
Threatened species, they adore me
Flower children never bore me

But all the things you share are
Better left unsaid
When you can give me head
And run your fingers through my hair

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, You could be the one
We can meditate
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
Let′s call it fate
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
To get your flowers pressed
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
Just get undressed

I′m so glad to find you here
Mystic people, they′re so dear
I don′t like the rest, your sign′s the best
Whatever it is I′m most impressed
I don′t need to understand
The laying on of hands
I′m in a hurry to get my karma straight
′Cause life is short and I can′t wait
But don′t worry about the state
Of this pretty little thing in the armour plate

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, You could be the one
We can meditate
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
Let′s call it fate
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
To get your flowers pressed
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
Just get undressed

I′m so pleased that you believe
Now open up a little let the good times heave
We′re going for a ride
Destiny can′t be denied
But all those precious things are better left unsaid
When you can give me hair
And run your fingers though my head

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, You could be the one
We can meditate
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
Let′s call it fate
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
To get your flowers pressed
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you could be the one
Just get undressed

Love
Is all you need.

The Sisters of Mercy - Red Skies Disappear

Out of my hands
Something′s calling
Catch my crying
Calling your name
Marian
Do no more than
Watch you try and understand me
Well i′ve found
It worth the standing
All around me
All around me
Marian
Take my hand
Lay beside me on the burning sand

CHORUS
Marian
Only you can
Say the words i need to hear
Marian
Only you can
Make these red skies disappear

Marian

CHORUS

Marian
Can you hear me calling?
Touch me now
In my hour of need
Speak to me softly
Lay down beside me
Marian
I think you know
I need you near me
Don′t try to understand
The sun is falling
Burning sand
Can you hear me calling?
Marian

CHORUS

The Sisters of Mercy - Lights

The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and daylight fades
Ignore the voices discard the day
For the brand new darkness for the bright new way
Hit
Well there have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
Emerald signal the green on black
The lights say move say never look back
And so I find a place where I′ve never been seen
Find another place where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain

The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and the daylight fades
But there′s a voice in the distance quiet and clear
Saying something that I never ever wanted to hear

Well there have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
I see the emerald signal see the green on black
I see the light say move say never look back
And so I find another place where I′ll never been seen
Find another place where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain rain rain
And I′m happy here
In the rain
In the rain
In the rain rain rain
I′m happy here
In the rain
Where the emerald
Glistens
Through the rain

The Sisters of Mercy - Marian

In a sea of faces, in a sea of doubt
In this cruel place your voice above the maelstrom
In the wake of this ship of fools I′m falling further down
If you can see me, Marian, reach out and take me home.....

I hear you calling Marian
Across the water, across the wave
I hear you calling Marian
Can you hear me calling you to
Save me, save me, save me from the
Grave...
Marian

Marian, there′s a weight above me
And the pressure is all too strong
To breathe deep
Breathe long and hard
To take the water down and go to sleep
To sink still further
Beneath the fatal wave
Marian I think I′m drowning
This sea is killing me

I hear you calling Marian
Across the water, across the wave
I hear you calling Marian
Can you hear me calling you to
Save me, save me, save me from the
Grave...
Marian

Was ich kann und was ich konnte (What I can do and what I could do)
Weiss ich gar nicht mehr (I just don′t know anymore)
Gib mir wieder etwas schones (Give me something beautiful again)
Zieh mich aus dem meer (Drag me from the sea)
Ich hore dich rufen Marian (I hear you calling Marian)
Kannst du mich schreien horen (Can you hear me calling?)
Ich bin hier allien (I am here alone)
Ich hore dich rufen Marian (I hear you calling Marian)
Ohne diene hilfe verliere ich mich in diessem ort
(Without your help I am lost in this place)

Marian, there′s a weight above me
And the pressure is all too strong
To breathe deep
Breathe long and hard
To take the water down and go to sleep
To sink still further
Beneath the fatal wave
Marian I think I′m drowning
This sea is killing me

Marian [repeat til end]

The Sisters of Mercy - The Damage Done

Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the 4th floor.
Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the dance floor
Somebody tell me about the perfect bomb
The royal valley on a blitzkrieg bomb
Somebody tell me how to use my gun tools
Kiss the napalm in the afternoon

I saw the film, I saw the place
I live to work for the killing sake
When I think you′re knocked, when the radio died
And the rhythm played from every side

See the rebel and the damage done
See the debris and the damage done
See the wreckage and the damage done
See the film, see the damage done

Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the 4th floor.
(this is the image, this is the place)
Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the dance floor
(this is the way the world will end)
Somebody tell me about the ...
(the waltzing man have dancing eyes)
I need to know about the ...
(this is the way the world will end)

Me I′m lost and the radio′s dead
Now I′m relaxed and the radio′s dead
The rhythms gone, the radio′s dead
And the damage done inside my radio.

The Sisters of Mercy - Bury Me Deep

Call it superstition (Lie beside and)
Followed and fell (Bury me)
Under the falling (Deep)
Under the spell
Singing
Bury me
Bury me
Spoken in tongues
Of many colours
In the colours of heaven
In the colours of hell
In the cannot
Would not tell
In the broken temple bells
In the ringing
Oh, Marian
I can hear those voices singing
Bury me
Deep
Inside
Lie beside and
Bury Me
Deep
In the spoken in tongues
Cover me over
Unsung
Unsaid
Not borrowed, broken and torn
On the bed tomorrow, mourning
Before you sleep
Bury me deep
Bury me
Inside
Lie beside and
Bury me bury me bury me bury me deep
Call it superstition
Followed and fell
Under the falling
Under the spell
Bury me
Deep
Inside

Susanne on the wall

I′m lost for stupid again

The Sisters of Mercy - 1959

Living as an angel in the
Place that I was born
Living on air
Living in heaven
Giving the lie down, the line
To the
There′s my heaven

And I know
Which way the wind blows
In nineteen fifty-nine

Which way the wind blows
In nineteen fifty-nine

And the wind blows still
And the wind blows wild again
For a little child an never kill this clean
This way
And it feels like me today
Tell me
Do you feel the same?
Isabelle?
Or do you feel like nineteen fifty-nine?
...do you feel like nineteen fifty-nine?

And the wind blows wild again
And the wind blows wild

In nineteen fifty-nine
In fifty-nine
Isabelle
Do you, do you fell the same?

Come with me
Like a little child
Like another gun
Like homeless, restless, known to none, like
Way beyond the line
Like it never was
In nineteen fifty-nine

The Sisters of Mercy - Good Things

The cracks appear along the wall wall wall wall wall
See the people stoop back, once stood tall tall tall tall tall
I see the buildings crumble see the empires fall
But I see no more and I don′t recall

Because I see
Nothing but the good things
Because I see
Nothing but the good things
Because I see
Nothing but the good things
Nothing but the good good good
Nothing but the good things

Well nothing ventured nothing lost
Count the changes count the cost
A reformation so uncertain
Keep your station draw the curtain

Because out there the snipers work the ridges
Building bombs and blowing bridges
Out there on a darkened road
The lines are dead and the cars explode

But in here
There′s nothing but the good things
In here
Nothing but the good things
In here
Nothing but the good things
Nothing but the good good good good good
Nothing but the good things

I see a green sea a pleasant land land land land land
Nothing legal underhand
On the fence or in the sand
Well I take no chances and I take no stand

Against the wall
Against the wire
Against the fall
Against the fire
Against the sale
Against the hire
They say the profits high
But I know the cost is higher

Still I see
Nothing but the good things
Still I see
Nothing but the good things
Still I see here see do talk see
Nothing but the good things
Nothing but the good good good good good
Nothing but the good things
Nothing but the good things
Nothing but the good good good good things
No!

The Sisters of Mercy - Under the Gun

You don′t have to say you′re sorry
To look on further down the line
Into the sun
Too close at heaven
Love is fine
But you can′t hold it like a...

Two worlds apart, two together
Ends with that goodnight kiss away
One takes the hard, one the other
Kiss a way

Are you livin′ for love?
Are you livin′ for love?
When the road gets too tough
Is your love strong enough?

Are you livin′?
Are you livin′ for love?

And do you feel your head is full of thunder
Questions never end
Empty nights alone? no wonder
It all comes back again

Are you livin′ for love?
Are you livin′ for love?
I′ve been under the gun
I lost and I′ve ...

Are you livin′ for love?
Are you livin′ for love?
I′ve been under the gun
I lost and I′ve ...

(One two three four)

Forget the many steps to Heaven
It never happened and it ain′t so hard
Happiness is a loaded weapon
And a shortcut is better by far
Explosive bolts, ten thousand volts
At a million miles an hour
Abrasive wheels and molten metal
It′s a semiautomatic - get in the car
Corrosive heart and frozen heat
Where the world′s apart, where we could meet
Where the street fold round and the motors start
And the idiot wields the power
Where the chosen hold the highest card
On a field of honour where the ground is hard
So the highest hand is joking wild
And a house soon fold and no one stand
And I put my finger on and dialed
The tower, the moon, the gun and
Nine-nine-nine, singer down
Cloudburst and all around
The first are last, the blessed get wired
The best is yet to come
I put my finger on and fired
Heatseeking out of the sun
You can set the controls for the heart or the knees
And the meek will inherit what they damn well please
Get ahead go figure, go ahead, pull the trigger
everything under the gun

The Sisters of Mercy - I Was Wrong

You say stay and never leave
You say meant for ever
I could believe you, but I don′t
You say we′re almost all alone together
All alone
You say
You say you will
I know you won′t

I was wrong
I was wrong to ever doubt
I can get along without
I can love my fellow man
But I′m damned if I′ll love yours

In a bar that′s always closing
In a world where people shout
I don′t wanna talk this over
I don′t wanna talk it out
I was quite impressed until I hit the floor
Isn′t that what friends are for?
Pain looks great on other people
That′s what they′re for

I was wrong
I was wrong to ever doubt
I can get along without
I can love my fellow man
But I′m damned if I′ll love yours

You say stay and never leave
You say meant for ever
I could believe you, but I don′t
You say we′re almost all alone together
All alone
You say
You say you will
I know you won′t

I was wrong
I was wrong to ever doubt
I can get along without
I can love my fellow man
But I′m damned if I′ll love yours

In a bar that′s always closing
In a world where people shout
I don′t wanna talk this over
I don′t wanna talk it out
I was quite impressed until I hit the floor
Isn′t that what friends are for?
Pain looks great on other men
That′s what they′re for

I was wrong
I was wrong to ever doubt
I can get along without
I can love my fellow man
But I′m damned if I′ll love yours

The Sisters of Mercy - Teachers

I met a man who lost his mind
In some lost place I had to find
Follow me the wise man said
But he walked behind

I walked into a hospital
Where none were sick and none was well,
When at night the Sisters left
I could not walk at all.

Some girls wander by mistake
Into the mess that scalpals make.
Are you the teachers of my heart
We teach old hearts to break.

A met a woman long ago
Her hair the black the black can go
Are you the teacher of the heart?
Soft she whispered, no

I met a girl across the sea,
Her hair the gold that gold could be.
Are you the teacher of the heart?
Yes, but not for thee.

I spent my hatred every place,
On every work, on every face
Is my passion perfect,
No! Do it once again.

Oh teachers are my lessons done?
I cannot do another one,
They laughed and laughed and laughed and said,
Child are your lessons done?

I was handsome, I was strong,
I knew the words of every song
Did my singing please you?
No, the words you sang were wrong

The Sisters of Mercy - Emma

We were together since we were five
She was so pretty
Emma was a star in everyone′s eyes
And when she said she′d be a movie queen
Nobody laughed
With her face like an angel
She could be anything

Emmaline
Emma
Emmaline
I′m gonna write your name high on the silver screen
Emmaline
Emma
Emmaline
I′m gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

At seventeen
We were wed
And I worked hard to earn our daily bread
And every day
Emma would go out searching for that play
That never, ever came her way
And sometimes she come home and she′d be so depressed
I′d hear her crying in the back room and be so distressed
And I′d remember back when she was five
To the words that used to make Emmaline come alive
It was...

Emmaline
Emma
Emmaline
I′m gonna write your name high on the silver screen
Emmaline
Emma
Emmaline
I′m gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

It was a cold and dark December night
When I opened up the bedroom door
To find her lying
Cold and still upon the bed
A love letter lying on the bedroom floor
IT read,
вЂ?Darling I love you
But I just can′t keep living on dreams no more
I′ve tried so hard not to leave you alone
But I just can′t keep trying no moreвЂ?

Emmaline
Emma
Emmaline
I′m gonna write your name high on the silver screen
Emmaline
Emma
Emmaline
I′m gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

The Sisters of Mercy - Detonation Boulevard

On detonation boulevard...
Through the angel rain
Through the dust and the gasolene
Through the cruelty of strangers
To the neon dream
Long distance information
Just tell me where the manholes steam
A little girl waits on my station
With a new machine
On detonation boulevard...
I got wrecked out here
In a eldorado
I got wired, white-walled
This hot-wired sedan
I caught something weird in encenada
I′ve a brother of sorts in torquemada
Long distance information
Disconnect me if you can
On detonation boulevard...
Pink noise, white noise,
And a violet whining sound
It burns inside this car
No cops, no signs, no left, no right
No stops, no turning round
Well you can run but you can′t ride
You won′t get far
On detonation boulevard..
Bang bang

On detonation boulevard...
Through the angle rain
Through the rust and the gasolene
Through the cruelty of strangers
To the neon dream
Long distance information
I′ll take the same
I got the fuel for the transformation
I′m a naked flame
On detonation boulevard...
Bang bang

The Sisters of Mercy - Poison Door

POISON DOOR
words and musuc by gary marx

Behind the door
The poison door
We search the still hours
Looking
For a place to hide
Behind the door
Where dreams collide
Behind the door
The poison door
We sit in silence waiting
For a deadly friend
Behind the door
Where dreams descend
And the shadows smile

Lips dark and wild
The shadows smile
And kiss the sky
Behind the door
The poison door
The puppets dance on a burning floor
Like dying flames
Behind the door
Shoot me down again

repeat to first break

And kiss your memory goodbye
And the shadows smile
But their lips are ssss...

And the shadows smile
Lips dark and wild
And the shadows smile
Kiss your memory goodbye
And the shadows smile
Lips dark and wild
And kiss the sky

The Sisters of Mercy - Some Kind Of Stranger

And yes I believe in what we had
But words got in the way
And only yesterday
As I was leaving
Lord knows I′ve tried to say but I′ve
Heard a million conveprsations
Going where they′ve been before
Seen the way that careful lingers
Undecided at the door

CHORUS

And all I know for sure
All I know for real
Is knowing doesn′t mean so much
When placed against the feeling
The heat inside
When bodies meet
When fingers touch

All my words are secondhand and
Useless in the face of this
Rationale and rhyme and reason
Pale beside a single kiss
And I′ve heard so many things I
Fail to understand at all
I′d settle anytime for
Unknown footsteps in the hall outside

CHORUS

Because the world is cruel and
Promises are broken
Don′t try to tell me
Anything don′t try to tell me
You′ll be true to me you know the
Real truth is never spoken
And I know the world is cold but
If you hold on tight to what you
Find you might not mind too much though
Even this must pass away and
Memories may last for years but
Names are just for souveniers
Some kind of angel let me
Look into your eyes
Don′t give me whys and wherefores
Reason or surprise
I don′t care for words that don′t belong
And I don′t care what you′re called
Tell me later if at all
I can wait a long long time
Before I hear another love song

Come here I think you′re beautiful
My door is open wide
Some kind of angel come inside

Come here I think you′re beautiful
I think you′re beautiful beautiful
Some kind of angel come inside

Come here I think you′re beautiful
I think you′re beautiful
Some kind of angel come inside

Come here I think you′re beautiful
My door is open wide
Some kind of stranger come inside

Come here I think you′re beautiful
I think you′re beautiful beautiful
Some kind of stranger come inside

Come here I think you′re beautiful
I think you′re beautiful
Some kind of stranger come inside

The Sisters of Mercy - Lucretia

I hear the roar of a big machine
Two worlds and in between
Hot metal and methedrine
I hear empire down
I hear empire down

I hear the roar of a big machine
Two worlds and in between
Love lost, fire at will
Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill, I hear
Dive, bombers, and
Empire down
Empire down

I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed
Get down, get undressed
Get pretty but you and me,
We got the kingdom, we got the key
We got the empire, now as then,
We don′t doubt, we don′t take direction,
Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me

We look hard
We look through
We look hard to see for real
Such things I hear, they don′t make sense
I don′t see much evidence
I don′t feel. I don′t feel. I don′t feel

A long train held up by page on page
A hard reign held up by rage
Once a railroad
Now it′s done...

I hear the roar of a big machine
Two worlds and in between
Hot metal and methedrine
I hear empire down...

We got the empire, now as then,
We don′t doubt, we don′t take reflection,
Lucretia, my direction, dance the ghost with me...

The Sisters of Mercy - On The Wire

ON THE WIRE
words and music by andrw eldritch

Now the ground comes up too fast
Too fast to meet you
In clouds of dust erupting
Thick around your feet, be careful
In the rubble in waiting
Wall to wall where you tread
Now the quick and the dead and the same old
Fates come calling cards away
How do you think it came to pass you
By the hard way by desire
How do you think it came to pass you by?
On the wire

I don′t sleep so I don′t dream
So I don′t wake up frightened
Everything is what it seems if
You look deep enough tonight and
See.....

On the wire
On the wire
On the wire
I will not fall

Gimme the ring, kissed and toll′d
Gimme something that I missed (gimme the ring)
A hand to hold, wild and what it seems(gimme the ring)
Kill the king, when love is the law,
And the we′ll turn round... (gimme the ring)

And do you hear me call? (gimme the ring)
On the loan and on the level
...still on the floor (gimme the ring)
Sing dream child
And do you hear at all?

Hey now, hey now now, sing this corrosion to me

In times like these
I feel an animal deep inside
Heel to haunch on bended knees
Living on if and if I tried,
Somebody send me... please...

Giving out and in
Selling the don′t belong
Well, what do you say
D′you have a word for giving away?
Got a song for me?

I bled all I can, I won′t bleed no more
I don′t need no one to understand
Why the blood run hold
The hired hand
On heart
Hand of god
Floodland and driven apart
Run cold
Turn
Cold
Burn
Like a healing hand
Like a healing hand
Like a healing hand
Like a healing hand

The Sisters of Mercy - First And Last And Always

See a body and the dream of the dead days
Following lost and blind
Living, far from here
Tomorrow is hard to find
And it seems like twenty-five years of
Promises and give me more
Scenes of a hand me down in
Dresses heard before

First and last and always: ′til the end of time
First and last and always: Mine

Maybe it′s not so easy
Maybe it′s a way too long
Say, say you′ll be by me
When the evidence comes along

(My calling)
(My time)

See a body and the dream of the dead days
A following lost and blind
Cross my heart with silver
Here′s the key behind
Seems like twenty-five years of
Ever after, ever more more more
Seems I wore this face for you
Far too long before

First and last and always: My calling, my time
First and last and always: Mine
First and last and always: ′til the end of the end of time
First and last and always: Mine
First and last and always: ′til the end of time
First and last and always: Mine

The Sisters of Mercy - Nine While Nine

And it′s passing strange
And I′m waiting for the train
Caught up on this line again
And it′s passing slowly
Killing time but it′s
Better than living in what will come and I′ve
Still got some of your letters with me and I
Thought sometimes or I read too much
And I think you know let′s
Drink to the dead lying under the water and the
Cost of the blood on the driven snow and the
Lipstick on my cigarettes
Frost upon the window pane
Nine while nine and I′m waiting
For the train.....

She said do you remember a time when angels
Do you remember a time when fear
In the days when I was stronger
In the days when you were here she said
When days had no beginning
While days had no end when
Shadows grew no longer I
Knew no other friend but you
Were wild
You were wild.....

Frost upon these cigarettes
Lipstick on the window pane and I′ve
Lost all sense of the world outside but I
Can′t forget so I call your name and I′m
Looking for a life for me and I′m
Looking for a life for you and I′m
Talking to myself again and it′s
So damn cold it′s just not true and I′m
Walking through the rain
Trying to hold on waiting for the train and I′m
Only looking for what you want but it′s
Lonely here and I think you knew and I′m
And I′m waiting
And I wait in vain
Nine while nine and I′m waiting
For the train.....

Frost upon these cigarettes

The Sisters of Mercy - Temple of Love

With the fire from the fireworks up above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another but still the same
For the wind will blow my name across this land

In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on walls
As wide as lovers eyes

In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: hear my calling
In the temple of love: hear my name

And the devil in black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away

With the sunlight died and night above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another it′s all the same
For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside

With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
You run for cover in the temple of love
I shine like thunder cry like rain
And the temple grows old and strong
But the wind blows longer cold and long
And the temple of love will fall before
This black wind calls my name to you no more

In the black sky thunder sweeping
Underground and over water
Sounds of crying weeping will not save
Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing
Ninety-six below the wave
When stone is dust and only air remains

In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: hear the calling
And the temple of love is falling
Down

In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: hear my calling
In the temple of love: hear my name

In the black sky thunder sweeping
Underground and over water
Sounds of crying weeping will not save
Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing
Ninety-six below the wave
When stone is dust and only air remains
The only haven you can trust

And the devil in black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away

With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain you

You run for cover in the temple of love
I shine like thunder cry like rain
And the temple grows old and strong
But the wind blows longer cold and long
And the temple of love will fall before
This black wind calls my name to you no more

In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on walls
As wide as lovers eyes

In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: hear my calling
And the temple of love is falling

The Sisters of Mercy - Adrenochrome

We′ll turn away in a passive decision
We′ll take the steps through the unmarked door
A look back for another collision
But the boys of the spires
Are boys no more

Not black and red boys
Frightened by the night
By the catholic monochrome
The catholic girls now
Stark in their dark and white
Dread in monochrome
The sisters of mercy
High tide
Wide eyed
Sped on adrenochrome
For the sisters of mercy
Filled with
Panic in their eyes
Rise
Dead on adrenochrome

We had the power
We had the space
We had a sense of time and place
We knew the words
We knew the score
We knew what we were fighting for
For the freedom
The time to choose
But time to think
Is time to lose
The signals clash
And disappear
The shade too loud
And the sound unclear
For the

High tide
Wide eyed
Dread in monochrome
Denied in spite
Disliked in monochrome
Panic in their eyes
Rise
Dead and monochrome
The sisters of mercy
Spite
On adrenochrome

The way is clear
The road is closed
The damage done
And the course
Imposed you

Haunt my dreams all covered in blood

Cut that bleeds and burning skin

Kiss the hand where the angels dread
Love is the corpse that draws on dreams
Rips them apart and tears them to shreads
So.

Staind - Just take it

Take It

I feel like this won′t go away
No matter how hard I try
To squeeze my eyes shut
So I can′t see the pain
In you this pain in me - in me

But everything that I can say to you
Won′t help you - everything you need is right in front of you
Just take it

I know that I am really not here
To represent what I am not clear
About in my head sometimes
I feel fucked up just like you do - like you do

But everything that I can say to you
Won′t help you - everything you need is right in front of you
Try to make it through the daily pain
That you feel - maybe tomorrow won′t be so bad.
It know it
′cause I once felt that way
Nothing I could say
Made it go away
I lived through this
I still feel this
I just live for my tomorrow

Make it go away
Just make it go away
She′ll make it go away

Staind - It′s Been Awhile

It′s been a while
Since I could...
Hold my head up high
It′s been a while
Since I first saw you
It′s been a while
Since I could stand
On my own two feet again
And it′s been a while
Since I could call you

And everything I can remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
Consequences that I′ve rendered
Have stretched myself beyond my means

It′s been a while
Since I could say
That I wasn′t addicted
It′s been a while
Since I could say
I loved myself as well and...
It′s been a while
Since I′ve gone and fucked things up
Just like I always do
It′s been a while
But all that shit seems to disappear when I′m with you

And everything I can remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
Consequences that I′ve rendered
Gone and fucked things up again... again

Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day
But then I go an fuck things up again

It′s been a while
Since I could...
Look at myself straight
It′s been a while
Since I said I′m sorry
It′s been a while
Since I′ve seen the way
The candles light your face
It′s been a while
But I can still
Remember just the way you taste

Everything I can remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
To me... I know this pain
Can I blame this on my father?
He did the best he could for me

It′s been a while
Since I could...
Hold my head up high
It′s been a while
Since I said I′m sorry

Staind - Change

If ever you had said to me before
That I would live this life that I am
Living now I guess it′s all so strange
To feel the way I do inside but
Have so much that I could feel some
Pride for in my life so why is it that
I feel like this

How do I feel? I′ve been here before,
I′ve felt this
Retreat to a place, a place within me
I need this. keep it all down, bottled inside
It breaks me to torment again and
Torture me like it used to

I try and try to break away from all the hate
I′m feeling for everyone of you that′s ever
Done me wrong. I need to justify the reasons
For the way I′m living. I guess I can′t cause
I don′t feel like I deserve it

So now the waves they have subsided
And my soul is bleeding I can′t take away
The shame I feel, forgive me

Staind - Epiphany

Your words to me just a whisper
Your face is so unclear
I try to pay attention
Your words just disappear

′cause it′s always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said

So I speak to you in riddles
′cause my words get in my way.
I smoke the whole thing to my head
And feel it wash away
′cause I can′t take anymore of this,
I want to come apart,
Or dig myself a little hole
Inside your precious heart

′cause it′s always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said

I am nothing more than
A little boy inside
That cries out for attention,
Yet I always try to hide
′cause I talk to you like children,
Though I don′t know how I feel
But I know I′ll do the right thing
If the right thing is revealed

′cause it′s always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said

I try to breathe
Memories overtaking me
I try to face them but
The thought is too
Much to conceive

I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
That my life became ′cause

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just too busy with yourself
You were never there for me to
Express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I′m older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface
I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

So where were you
When all this I was going through
You never took the time to ask me
Just what you could do

Staind - Rainy Day Parade

You the great pretenders, blood to paint your pictures
While you’re stepping over fallen people lying in the streets
You the great offenders, only your views matter
While your heart grows colder, I wish that you could open up and feel

For a while see if you can take it
Feel, you’re alive and this is all part of it
Feel, could it be that we’re all afraid
′Cause it feels like a rainy day parade

We the great believers, blood is legal tender
I will not surrender what it was our fathers died to bear
We the people stated, not negotiated
Just to be forgotten, I wish that you could open up and see

For a while see if you can take it
See, you’re alive and this is all part of it
See, can’t you see that we’re all afraid
‘Cause it seems like a rainy day parade

What I see is all too real
What I need is what you steal
And all I reap is what you take
Upon my back on which you break
I just wish that we could rise above and feel

For a while see if you can take it
Feel, you’re alive and this is all part of it
Feel could it be that we’re all afraid

Staind - All I Want

What I leave,
When you go,
What I see,
And what you show,
And what I guess,
And when I don′t,
Is something you all ready, all ready know,

[Chorus:]
I can′t live without,
All I think about,
All I want is you,
You′re all I dream about,
I can′t live without,
All I want is you,

The things I do,
I go through,
And all I see,
When Im awake,
And what I make,
The shit that I take,
Is something you all ready, all ready know

[Chorus:]
I can′t live without,
All I think about,
All I want is you,
You′re all I dream about,
I can′t live without,
All I want is you,

Ohhh,...
Is you,
Is you,
Is you,
Is you,
You′re all I dream about,
That I can′t live without,
All I want is you

[Chorus:]
I can′t live without,
All I think about,
All I want is you,
You′re all I dream about,
I can′t live without,
All I want is you,
I just can′t live without you,
When all I think about is you,
And all I want is you

Staind - Blow Away

live in my head for just one day
i see myself andlook away
the road is showing now on my face
soon i′ll disappear
I′ll disappear without a fucking trace

[chorus]

faces that i′ve seen turn old and grey
i′ve lost too many freinds along the way
memories i never thought would fade
they fade and blow away

i wish that icould disappear
unzip my skin and leave it here
so i could be no one again
and never let nobody,
i′d let nobody
i′d let nobody in

[chorus]

so now the walls are closing in
because in life you sink or swim
sometimes these shoes don′t feel right in my head
feel like a book that can′t be read,
a book that can′t be,
a book that can′t be read

[chorus]

Staind - Tonight

just try to understand this isn′t what i planned
this ride′s out of my hands
so now i′m forced to be something i can not be
if only i could make you see

[chorus]

tonight i′m alive
i′ve watched you all grow up and so have i
inside this isn′t really what i had in mind
i no longer relate to this world of hate
that′s forced upon my plate
i tend to disagree, i hope its not just me,
alone if only i could make you see

[chorus (x3)]

Staind - King Of All Excuses

You, I trusted your intentions a trust you took advantage of now you are sitting in the hole that
you
dug around yourself.

You′ve lied so much you think it′s true
Do you know what the truth is?
How does someone get to be like you?
The king of all excuses?

Is she your partner in deception caught inside the web you′ve spun?
Did you forget that you were family, the damage you have done?

You′ve lied so much you think it′s true
Do you know what the truth is?
How does someone get to be like you?
The king of all excuses?

I trusted you. I trusted in you.

This time you′re gonna get it
All the things you′ve done coming back to you
This time you′re gonna feel it
Your conscience slowly suffocating you
In time you will regret it
Say goodbye to all the things you′ve gotten used to
Life will find a way to bring this karma to you
Life will find a way to bring this karma to you

You′ve lied so much you think it′s true
Do you know what the truth is?
How does someone get to be like you?
The king of all excuses?

Everything must come full circle
It kills me that I feel this hurtful
I wonder what your children think of you,
The king of all excuses.
