Lyrics for A Gothic Lovesong by Current 93:
| | | Artist: | Current 93 |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | A Gothic Lovesong | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 83 | | | | Lyrics: | I'm clicking your fingers for a gothic twilight
that actually existed just in your
head
your fingernails painted black
or bloodred
I forget
And your
fake-leather volumes
jabbering on hell
manifest decadence was what you hoped to
exhail
your eyes tried so hard to glitter
A star-snuffing black
so you opened
your books
and you opened your legs
and so opened your heart
and let in the
badness
you claimed
as your friend
with un-angels hovering
like flies round the
orchard
that had covered your soul
their empire increasing
and your
country
deserted by yourself
The bells of St. Mary call us to remember
that
life is with end
and the gestures can kill us
moreover destroy
and there is one
jugdement only
Your letters came daily
in French or in German
but they meant to
me nothing
I caught the slow cords
and dry ice fogging your mind
I see all too
clearly now
why you should be discarded
and though I could pray for you
I probably
shan't
having had my cup filled up
with your lies
and your makeup
you were
nothing
thinking you're something
And nonetheless I still write this gothic
lovesong
a sign to myself
and the memory of my past
I still write this gothic
lovesong
and the memory of my past
and a way to shut out your face | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
