Cold Cave - Youth and Lust lyrics
[Cold Cave - Youth and Lust lyrics]
I stripped from the skin but kept it in
Same remains the same
Cold sheets and mattress stains
There's no telling you to want me too
You miss the disco lights
Its all pleather now
A synthetic world without end
Sheds a tear of plastic deception
The last dance with the rain
On the nod on the train
Hunting the haunted with shame
I will remember your name
I had hoped my love alone
Could outlive my past
I had hoped a to thread the black hole
With no strings attached
Thorn to finger again
A head in a strange hand
I prayed for some truth
'Til my face turned blue
To fill the void between your youth and lust
You'll cross the bridge between
My knives and trust
You miss the neon lights
It's all plastic now
A sympathetic world without end
Hums a hymn of misdirection
The last dance with the rain
On the nod on the train
Hunting the haunted with shame
I will remember your name
I had hoped my love alone
Could outlive my past
I had a to thread the black hole
With no strings attached
