* Christian Death * Comsat Angels * The Dancing Did *

Christian Death
 
 
The Drowning

Up for three days
up for three days

down under ground for six more

incisions cannot penetrate my feet

tripping, gliding, falling numbly

hands held together with unwanted skin

ripping, hiding calling dumbly

You, in houses of mud
you, in gutter sleep - love

you, born to slaughter - swathed gloves

you dressing daughters and sons

like you - I am broken and fragile

like you - I am tasting my heart for the first time

like you - I am feeding on slumber

like you - I’ve left my eyes far behind me

down for the count I'm still drowning

I'm still drowning

The eighth day
sleep, the eighth day

clawed my way back to the first

no gentle fingers collapse on my eyes

weeping, prying, struggling blindly

there's no sanity standing me back on my feet

I'm in an empty room
I'm burning books from you

I'm lost in bed with you

breaking these mirrors to end all I’ve seen

Like you - I am broken and fragile
like you - I am tasting my heart for the first time

like you - I am feeding on slumber

like you - I’ve left my eyes far behind me

down for the count I'm still drowning

I'm still drowning

I'm still drowning

Eye Dance* I'm Falling * Total War * Under the Influence
 
Eye Dance
Was it my imagination?
Working over time again
Did we make a strange connection
Just then
Some things I've never spoken
Some things I've never done
If we could forget our manners
Just once
If I asked you
What would you do?
Would you think it over
We see stranger things
Everyday
Would you think it over
Somethings changed in your expression
Maybe I should explain
Because it could be my imagination
Again...
If I asked you
What would you do?
Would you think it over
We see stranger things
Everyday
Would you think it over?
 
I'm Falling
I never thought this could happen
I never thought I could feel this way
Until this strange reaction today
You give me a strange sensation
In a place that has no name
Something tells me I'll never feel the same
Now it's all changed
I'm falling, falling
Falling, falling
I'm falling, falling
Falling, falling
I began to slip - I did not know what was coming next
Even so I was not prepared for this...
I used to think nothing mattered
Now I see possibilities
You showed a new direction to me
And it's all changed
 
Under the Influence
There's a deep sea
In your eyes
And they haunt me
All the time
And theres so many reasons
I cannot say
So the feeling
Won't fade away
I am under the influence
And it won't stop
Under the influence
And I can't seem to shake it off
Shake it off
 
But theres no room
In your life
Its the wrong place
And I have no right
And thought I try my best
To control myself
Have you noticed
I'm not doing very well
I'm still under the influence
And it won't stop
Under the influence
I can't seem to
Under the influence
And it won't stop
Under the influence
I can't seem to shake it off
Shake it off (x4)
 
There's a deep sea
In your eyes
And they haunt me
They haunt me all the time
And theres so many reasons
I cannot say
Still the feeling
It won't fade away
I am under the influence
And it won't stop
Under the influence
I can't seem to
Under the influence
And it won't stop
Under the influence
I can't seem to shake it off
Shake it off (x7)
 
Total War
We walk the streets together
With smiles on our faces
We talk nice to each other
And we listen when we have to
Maybe its just overrated
Maybe I'm just isolated
We walk the streets together
We walk the streets together
 
You don't like my friends
You don't like my clothes
You think that I'm crazy
Any other girl would just pass over
Any other girl would just pass over
 
Nothing ever comes between us
In no man's land
That they deserve
Look at us prop up the pieces
We live together on our own
Maybe its just overrated
Maybe I'm just isolated
We walk the streets together
We walk the streets together
 
You don't like my friends
You don't like my clothes
You think that I'm crazy
Any other girl would just pass over (x4)
 
This is total war girl (x4)
Any other girl would just pass over (x2)
 
This is total war girl (x12)
Total War

The Dancing Did
 
The Headmaster and The Fly
A quiet darkened, quite still, no enquiries, Headmaster’s study.

Suffocating oak panels,
Smothering in soft shiny beeswax.

Yellow painted plaster mock Tudor roses, dripping from the ceiling.

Tiger skin,
Blending into,
Faded blood red,
Thread-bare carpet.

Diamond-paned.
Nicotine stained.
Glass windows.

A mighty pigskin covered desk,
With ornate,
Ivory,
Antique inkstand.

Behind the desk a man....

The Head...master....

Dustless eyelids open....
And revealed in the reflection,
Of his large pupils.....
A small pupil,
Requiring summary correction.

Bulging eyes regard the boy,
With measured mock astonishment.
Then a raising of eyebrows,
And grinding of teeth,
Heralds the coming admonishment.

Pursed-lips-open-alligator-slow-as-a-deep-red-tongue-flicks-around-its-dark-wet-home.
Words fall croaking out, bump off the huge desk, bang round the walls, climb up mullioned windows,
But miss the young miscreant’s ears....

It’s then, that the fly appears...


NO KNOCKS OR APPOINTMENTS JUST STRAIGHT THROUGH THE WINDOW!


Its black shiny body makes straight for the dead smell of the headmaster!

Where it wildly buzzes around his head,
like a playful miniature vulture.

A precise, thin, white, chalk steeped swat misses the circling insect as it farts and darts away...

To a speck of dust where it sheds a million germs that run amock,
And copulate unnoticed on the headmaster’s desk-top.

It-climbs-and-dives-it-climbs-and-dives-it-climbs-and-dives-it-climbs-and-dives,
It loops the loop, it drops a mid-air shit, without a care.

As the ancient man drones on and on,
It screeches through the air,
As the ancient man drones on and on,
It screeches through the air,
As the ancient man drones on and on,
It screeches through the air,
As the ancient man drones on and on,
It screeches through the air!
