4th Revision. 10 Feb 93.
Transcribed by John Mc Donagh (mcdonghj@unix2.tcd.ie).
From First Post:
I transcribed these lyrics as best as I could as I wanted a copy of them.
Some bits of the Lyrics I could not catch and these are enclosed in [ ]
square brackets. My comments are in { } curly brackets.
I would appreciate if others would listen to the album and fill in my gaps
and correct my mistakes, but please listen to the albums again first as I
have had various replies, some of which I agree with and some of which I do
not.
Thanks to all who helped, with particular thanks to Spiggy and Robert Schmitz.
I know we had a few run ins etc... But sincerest thanks!
And thanks to my brother Alan who helped in the corrections and in the
decipering of the shamans lyrics.
All the lyrics should now be Revision 4, even though it might be the first set
of corrections to some of the files. This just lets you know that you have the
*most* up to date set of lyrics :-)
Also I haven't done 'Returning to Gehenna' as all the tracks are covered in
some form on 'Burning the Fields' and 'Power'. I know 'Back in..' is different
to 'Returning..'. I'll get around to it sometime.
Note also that every version of every song is not covered. I have tried to have
at least one version of every song for all you out there in GothLand, so for
the moment you will need to make do with that.

On the lyrics: I think Slowkill is about Joan of Arc so I hear Joan at the
chorus but others feel it is about suicide: Jump. I don't honestly know.
Dust is a tricky one too. Is it about Western films or about Western Heros:
"Faith without a name" or "Fading out and In"... Will we ever truely know?
Intro(The Harmonic Man) {Purely instrumental}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ {By Ennio Morricone.}
Slowkill {An ode to Joan of Arc ??}
~~~~~~~~
Love cried, the bridge of starving
So cold, first light
Up here, on the bridge of night
Forsake me but listen
Slow, Slow, Slow ... Bleed for what ??
Up here, the bridge of night
To fall, it would be so nice
Chorus: Chase this misery out of this town
Bury my face into this ground
Now Joan, Now Joan J J J J J Joan {Possibly "No Joy" or "Now Jump"}
Into a smile mesmerised
See what you are, See what you were
Up here I can see for miles,
Such a fire as burns inside
I'm up here because I wanted to die
I'm up here like a dying Messiah
I'm up here because I wanted to die
I'm up here cause I like it
(Chorus:)
Joan,
The Pain ..... (To fade)
Don't cry
Now Joan, Now Joan J J J J Joan
(Bury my face into the ground ...Joan)
Volcane(Mr. Jealousy has Returned)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mr. Jealousy has returned returned returned
Chorus: Volcane ... Yearning Yearning Yearning Yearning
Volcane ... Yearning Yearning Yearning Yearning
Mr. Jealousy has returned to reality
All secured by humanity-manity-ity
Your living in danger
Mr. Jealousy please return to reality
Can't you see, can't you see
I'm loving a stranger
Bridge: Living inside her, this love Volcane
Now burn inside her, this love Volcane
Living inside her, this love Volcane
He needs to be inside her, this love Volcane
(Chorus)
Mr. Jealousy has returned

Vet for the Insane
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Disheartening dreams, of tonight Relax
Takes a crying to sleep Relax Relax
You gotta hold to your past, So bad so bad
I'm gonna pull you all to pieces, So sad so Sad
Flowers in your kitchen, they weep for you
I'm gonna shred them all to pieces, like I did to you
Relax (Relax) Relax ..
Relax (Relax) Relax ..
Chorus: I wanna go home, Sadly I cried for you
I wanna go home, Look what you put me through, Put me through!
The wolves gather round, hear the droning sound
Like the hostile beat, What am I here for ??
Relax (Relax) Relax ..
Relax (Relax) Relax ..
(Chorus)
I wanna go home, What am I here for ??
I wanna go home, Help me ..
I wanna go home, What am I here for ??
Dust
~~~~
Blood, I wanna wash away {Love, I wanna wash your brains}
Gotta heat this love {I've got a heat sense love}
As she break {As she brain/reign??}
Dust we think the same
Gotta reason in peace, Now explain
Chorus: Feelings go on and on
Killing, its all man made
The rythm of life is all too strong
To get back..
Come down, Out of all the strain
In the swirling pool, of blood and brains
About face, My mind is made {Well [I face] My mind is made}
May a woman or child {May a woman watch out}
Childs masquerade {Childs masculine, child of masochism}
(Chorus)
The Western Heroes...
Blood, I walk the Highwire
I had to walk real high to see today
Dust, Faith without a name {Fading out and in}
When I finish my war, I'll feel the same {...walk, I'll fade the scene}
(Chorus)
The Western Heroes...
Well I walk the highwire
Well I walk the highwire
Well I walk the highwire
I've walked the highwire
Reanimator
~~~~~~~~~~
Pain, we are transforming {Listen to the shout...}
With your daughters underground
Pain, We look like sisters
Caught up in a landslide, Falling down
So far but you can feel them
So far but you can hear them
So far, So far
Reanimator Reanimator now
Reanimator Reanimator now
Pain, a shock like fire
Your world sinks, your world stinks of you {Your world sinks from view}
Sane, The world's a wire {Definatley not just a shout}
Your mind burns, your mind burns of you {Your members are few}
So far but you can hear them
So far but you can feel them
So far, So far
Reanimator Reanimator now
Reanimator Reanimator now

Cut to razor sounding violins
Recall your cutthroats and razor sin
We're watching Heaven as the sun goes down
I'll watch the sun bursting.. Hit the ground
You've got to [ ]
Chorus: Dawnrazor's falling, The Razor Sin {Rouse the sky}
Dawnrazor's falling, The Razor Sin {nb: Sin sounds like sign}
Dawnrazor Dawnrazor Well how ?
Dawnrazor Dawnrazor Well how ?
(Chorus)
Women in dreams abide, better than lost before
Women in dreams abide, better than cut before
Cuts in razor sound in body and limb
Recall your cutthroats and razor sin
You've got to [ ]
Dawnrazor's falling, The Razor Sin
Dawnrazor's falling, The Razor Sin
Dawnrazor's falling, The Razor Sin
DawnAngel's fall, The Razor Sin

Well I'm back, What do you cry for ? {NOT: "The one you cried for"}
When I'm dead, Will you cry more ?
Well I'm back, What do you cry for ?
When I'm dead, Will you cry more ?
This is The Sequel, This is how The Sequel ends
This is The Sequel, This is how The Sequel ends
