Lyrics :: The Orchid Song

Und hier noch ein letzter alter Song aus einer Zeit, als ich nichts hatte ausser gesundem Haupthaar und meinem guten Aussehen. Und ja, Brüder und Schwestern, es hilft sich diesen Song mit einer leicht jauligen Stimme á la Robert Smith vorzustellen... (Hullo!)

I was walking all night to the sound of my heart
A desease in my mind and the cure in my ears
I was dieing all night to the sound of my heart
Every smile I gave was drowning in tears oh tears

But then I saw you all dressed in black
With a silver skull and diamond bones
Adorned adorned like the venus
Adorned like Velvet's Venus in Furs

And I thought I loved you tasting your tongue
The heat and the beat the pain and the stain
Were blowing my mind
I was born again in your gloomy eyes
Entangled and choking in your gloomy hair

I was floating floating like a priestking
On his funeralship floating down the Nile
I was devouring every smile of thine
Your blackness blackness was melting with mine

Suffocating under the weight of your love
Intoxicated by the perfume of your virginal blood
Love's like a flower smelling so sweet
But maybe oh maybe it's a carnivorous one

Oh love is a sponge on the meat of reason
And you are the bug allured by the smell
And the insect's been crushed in an instant
Jaws so red so smooth so red so sweeet
I'm gonna take you I'm gonna eat you
My arms around you
are clasping
now
