Diazapam With Milk

diazapam with milk
and the milk i do not drink
but the pill is my wall
the wall i lean upon
it helps me to rest
where my brain cells feel the best
it shuts down the day
and pulls me in from the edge
i hate lollipop happiness
i'd rather listen to Low than Let's Dance
let's all dress in black
let's all dress in black
let's all dance in black
eyeliner black
diazapam with milk
and the milk i do not drink
but the pill is my wall
the wall i lean upon
it helps me to rest
where my brain cells feel the best
it shuts down the day
and pulls me in from the edge
diazapam with milk
and the milk i do not drink
diazapam with milk
and the milk i do not drink
drink drink drink drink drink

Gorgon

your gorgon hair
your venom eyes
your coquette grin
your sulfur taste
you kill yourself
and i'm, i'm dead inside
your gorgon hair
you're bent on pain
matters not much
you're a foregone bride
you kill yourself
and i'm, dead inside
drained and out of sleep
a smote and broken heap
drained and out of sleep
a smote and broken heap

Love Me To Death
04:02
|
|
||
the living skin in almost dead
dullness has become nothing to fear
there's places were i do not go
traces of somebody else's life left behind
love me to death
love me to death
there is a line i cannot cross
where she's concerned she's second to none
i fly up to the firmament just to touch her face
but there's no one there just poison air
i fall i fail i crash
love me to death
love me to death

Mausoleum
04:52
|
|

come july i will leave you
and in august you'll be gone
suck the poison from the Nightshade
my favourite tonic of them all
i will love you in the morning
i will dress you when you're torn
i'll breathe life into your shadow
and we'll walk right through this wall
come tomorrow i will leave you
and today i know is gone
in this mausoleum darkness
i crawl beneath the bedroom floor
i will love you in the morning
i will dress you when you're torn
i'll breathe life into your shadow
and we'll walk right through this wall
i will love you in the morning
i will dress you when you're torn
i'll breathe life into your shadow
and we'll walk right through this wall

Alien Skin Melbourne, Australia
I've been making darkwave electropop from elements of 80s post-punk subculture for over 40 years. Including years in the Australian band 'Real Life' which topped world charts in the 80s with 'Send Me An Angel'.
