Nothing ever goes right Nothing really flows in my life No one really cares if no one ever shares my care People push by with fear in their eyes in my life
Love is dead, love is dead
The telephone rings, but no one ever thinks to speak to me The traffic speeds by, but no one's ever stopped too late Intelligent friends don't care in the end, believe me
Love is dead, love is dead
And plastic people with imaginary smiles Exchanging secrets at the back of their minds Plastic people Plastic people
Nothing ever goes right Nothing really flows in my life No one really cares if this horror's inside my head
People push by with fear in their eyes in my life
Love is dead, love is dead Love is dead, love is dead Love is dead, love is dead
And all the lies that you've given us And all the things things that you said
And all the lies that you've given us... Blow like wind in my head
I tidy your wayward hair I buy clothes you never wear I try to kiss all your tears away I freeze you in polaroids And capture your dark brown voice I'm with you cause cause there's no choice in the end
I am the dust You are the rain I am the needle And you are the vein And this is a moment that words can't explain I am the dust
And your love's like a overdose With your hands wrapped around my throat Using sex like an antidote to the pain
I am the dust You are the rain I am the needle And you are the vein And this is a moment that words can't explain I am the dust
I am the dust And you are the rain And I am the needle And you are the vein And this is a moment that words can't explain I am the dust You're the rain
Called you on your private number Left a message on your mobile phone Even tried the operator But when I call no one's home Trying just so hard ro reach you To try and keep this thing alive You're the one that I need to speak to Didn't you know there's a monster inside? If you're gone I'll carry on but deep inside I'll give my heart to the winter If you leave I'll take this blade and Carve your name into my ugliness So I want and sat in Crystal Palace By the plastic dinosaurs In my pocket was a piece of paper And the writing looked like yours Started picking thought our conversation And kicking through the rotting leaves Never realzed the implications, Didn't you know there's a monster in me? If you're gone I'll carry on but deep inside I'll give my heart to the winter If you leave I'll take this blade and Carve your name into my ugliness Summer's gone and there's no sun What have I done? I've lost my love to the winter Now my heart is cold and dark what have I done? I've given our love away
There's anger in their skin It's just a style for them They move with murder in their vein A cardboard filled indoors They pass the daylight off And kiss their innocence away Scorpio rising Scorpio rising Scorpio rising It's on the wind Their lies are analysed By intellectual types Who know the depth of their disease And love is just a game To pass the hours away To spend endeavours on your knees Scorpio rising Scorpio rising Scorpio rising It's on the wind Scorpio rising Scorpio rising Scorpio rising It's on the wind It's on the wind It's on the wind It's on the wind
And when your clothes are on the ground And your hair is falling down Will you surrender to it now Because yes only we exist In our symphony of flesh In our universe of bliss In the infinite kiss the infinite kiss
As it subjugates you now As it pins you to the ground Like a tethered animal As it drags you by the hips And it forces you to this It is hell but it is bliss It's the infinite kiss the infinite kiss
It's the infinite kiss the infinite kiss
As you move like a machine And the child within you screams When was heaven so obscene It's our playground of excess It is poetry made flesh It's our symphony of bliss the infinite kiss the infinite kiss
My love she hides a cruel disease It's the bullet in her mind, it's the plan between her knees It's the colour of the night, it's the number of the beast] My love she dreams of Tel Aviv She's got nails in her hands and nails in her feet She's not from the Holy Land but she think she used to be Tell me when was hell so beautiful? Tell me wuth your words that disagree Tell me with your reason carved like granite Tell me so that I can be free My love she hides a cruel disease She's the bullet in my mind She's got a plan between her knees She's the colour of the night She stirs the beast in me
Baby thought she really needed that sofa Baby thought she really wanted that dress Baby thought she really had to have two cars Baby thought she really had to say yes But the more she possessed The more she'd slide into debt And the more she possessed The less she owned of herself Baby thought she really needed that hairstyle Baby thought she really had to say yes Baby really needed acres of carpets Thought she'd be happy if she had larger breasts Everbody said you can't live without them Everbody said you have to say yes So baby Spent her everything on this lifestyle But it's lifestyle that doesn't exist And the more she possessed The more she'd slide into debt And the more she possessed She less she owned of herself Yes the more we possess The more we are in debt And the more we possess The less we own of ourselves
Now my body id sand And the wind blows through me Like the soil on your hands I am compost and leaves And my life is gone, darling And now I am free And my life is gone, darling, Like words made of sand, like the shivering trees And my life was a flower And lover was the leaves But nobody saw any beauty in me And my life is gone, darling And now I am free And my life is gone, darling Like words made of sand, like the shivering trees When your life has gone, darling And when your are free When your life is gone, darling You're words made of sand So be nothing with me
브렛 앤더슨 독집 앨범. 예전에 GMF 갔을 때전광판에서 내내 그의 뮤직비디오(이 곡 말고 좀 센 것)가 나왔는데 그 때 계속저 사람 누구지, 많이 봤는데 누구지? 이랬다. 스웨이드 때 부터 별로 관심이 없어놔서ㅋ나중에 알고 보니 브렛 앤더슨이었어. 다들 많이 늙었다, 뭐 이런 반응인데난 개인적으로 그의 솔로 앨범이 스웨이드의 앨범...
