Lyrics:
Dark city streets twist and moan
In the heat as night descends
Two searching eyes find their way into mine inviting me in
Dancing so close, we already know how good it will be
We slip out from the unseeing crowd, we find what we need
[Chorus]
In the heart of the night we run like bandits
Two hungry hearts under the gun
In the heart of the night when we find each other
Were stealing love on the run
In the heart of the night Heart of the night
Cool city moon lays its touch on the room,
Your eyes reach to me
Two shadows fall saying nothing at all,
We know what we need
In the release two prisoners are free from the darkness
One more escape surviving the heartache and madness
In the heart of the night we run like bandits
Two hungry hearts under the gun
In the heart of the night when we find each other
Were stealing love on the run
In the heart of the night Heart of the night [Chorus: x 2]
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
Cut glass porcupine sailing on the Serpentine
Fingers on the skyline pulling down the black blinds
Terminal eyes at the edge of the night
Rivulet of dark wine moving in a straight line
Smudging out the stop signs, running down the life lines
Terminal eyes at the edge of the night
Shadows on the ceiling, coffee cup congealing
Tarot cards revealing, a solitary feeling
Terminal eyes, but I think it's alright
Silver studded jet plane screaming through the migraine
Cutting through the cellophane, wrappers of your tired brain
Terminal eyes, put out the light
Terminal eyes
Only the lonely Arabian skies
Terminal eyes
Calling you home from your restless disguise
Hands of the windmill moving to a standstill
Rain on the windowsill, ashes on the phone bill
Terminal eyes at the edge of the night
Rain drop fire flies sparkle on the shop blinds
Echoes of the summertime flicker in the street-signs
Terminal eyes at the edge of the night
Shadows on the ceiling, coffee cup congealing
Eyes that look unseeing, hands that look unfeeling
Terminal eyes, I think it's alright
Silver-studded sea plane breaking through the migraine
Cutting through the cellophane, enveloping your tired brain
Terminal eyes, put out the light
Terminal eyes
Only the lonely Arabian skies
Terminal eyes
Calling you home from your restless disguise
Terminal eyes
Only the lonely Arabian skies
Terminal eyes
Calling you home from your restless disguise
A state of mind 'cause I'm just fading away
And my head is lost up in the satellites
I'm so far and gone to ever get it right
Through unseeing eyes, day dreaming again
Eternity is seemingly an endless waiting.
Lost in forever
Eternally, a limitless time.
Amused and confused by life's little ironies,
He swallows his bottle of distilled damnation.
People turn around with unseeing eyes.
They're looking for something that doesn't exist.
The world you once knew is being eaten up by rust.
Then thou whose shadow, shadows doth make bright,
How would thy shadow's form, form happy show
To the clear day with thy much clearer light
When to unseeing eyes thy shade shines so
How would, I say mine eyes be blessed made
By looking on thee in the living day
When in dead night thy fair imperfect shade
Through heavy sleep on sightless eyes doth stay
All days are nights to see till I see thee
And nights bright days when dreams do show thee me
(ian hunter)
His feet lay heavy on the road that led to birmingham
Unseeing eyes, defeated cries, the mysteries of men.
Many hears, the helpless tears that leave the troubled brow
A man once tall, he fought them, but he is older now.
Violent indecision, surge of mass religion
Let me out of prison
I'm just killing time
Every time I turn around
I start to hear familiar sound
Counting down as time stands still
Yes I think it's time to kill
Time to kill
All the mental anguish
Speaks a common language
I have yet to lavish a chance to walk away
Every time I turn around
I start to hear a familiar sound
Counting down as time stands still
Yes I think it's time to kill
Unknowing, unseeing
Revelations unfold before your eyes
Relenting, repenting.
No time to think or compromise
Time falling, time calling
Into a void and seal the past
You're waiting, annihilating,
Making it real, making it last
Worn out compromises
Must be out of rises
See through all the lies
We don't walk away
Every time we turn around
Start to hear that familiar sound
New beginnings time stands still
Yes I think it's time to kill.
Stay, in our room, don't make a sound 'til evening
Hold, to your tune, watching not believing
Wait for a sign, they're coming through the ceiling
Caught but in time, exploding, then releasing
What do they say about this
What will never be missed
Run on easier to fly
Ever so quietly, ever good night
Stay far from here, wait until you're peaking
Head down the lot, we're not out we're streaming
Wait for the night, slip through unseeing
Drive to the right, no sense, no escaping
What do they say about this
What will never be missed
Run on easier to fly
Ever so quietly, ever good night
What do they say about this
What will never be missed
Run on easier to fly
Ever so quietly, ever good night
Stay here 'til night, it takes a lot of beating
Wave from the side, and really dig your feet in
Watching the lights, staring out unseeing
Take from the bite, a last breath so fleeting
We're watching the lights, they're staring out unseeing
(We're) watching the lights, staring out, unseeing
(We're) watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Watching the lights, staring, unseeing
(We're) watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Watching the lights, staring, unseeing
Dark city streets twist and moan
In the heat as night descends
Two searching eyes find their way into mine inviting me in
Dancing so close, we already know how good it will be
We slip out from the unseeing crowd, we find what we need
[Chorus]
In the heart of the night we run like bandits
Two hungry hearts under the gun
In the heart of the night when we find each other
Were stealing love on the run
In the heart of the night Heart of the night
Cool city moon lays its touch on the room,
Your eyes reach to me
Two shadows fall saying nothing at all,
We know what we need
In the release two prisoners are free from the darkness
One more escape surviving the heartache and madness
In the heart of the night we run like bandits
Two hungry hearts under the gun
In the heart of the night when we find each other
Were stealing love on the run
In the heart of the night Heart of the night [Chorus: x 2]
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
Heliotrope my love
Her face to the heavens
Her petals all around her dial
Her shadow follows her
It looks like a seven
-- And I'm as loaded as a gun --
She worships the sun
She worships the sun
I lie beneath the ground
My eyes are unseeing
My name is gone from all the files
The tombs are shimmering
Deep into her being
It could be lethal
But it's fun
She worships the sun
She worships the sun
She worships the sun
She's full of happy beans
No shadow within her
Your paranoia makes her smile
And when the cat's head grins
She's ready for dinner:
You know you're gonna be the one!
A crowd only wants one thing
And answers like an ocean
Unkind and unseeing, a wave
While the night circles around the day
While the night circles around the day
The question is
How can you fool a mind?
Ground's damp... creeping ice
From the hill to the river
From the hill to the river
From the hill to the river
Unseeing and unseeable
Unseeing and unseeable
The harmless affairs, and no-one seemed to care for any meaning
My life was my own, The debt I paid, I paid it only to myself.
The unseeing youth, how can it be so shallow and short-sighted
These years passed me by, to realize the folly of these unripe years.
Way out there in the wilderness
Of love and pain
Under the gentle arches we rode
The silver streets
Couldn`t see a difference between gold or
Wooden cross
Could never see where we`re falling
Came in to love
Then hounded by love
Hounded by the very thing you dreamed up
Chased inside the walls you tried to breach
Sent crashing to your knees
Only tender love
Understood the need you need with
Understood the time it took
To take you where nothing ever was
Never was there once nothing
And everything once was
Not dead but still and ready to be born anew
Looking back now it all
Seems so clear
Like staring so long unseeing for someone to light inside a
Darkened room
Then try your tender love
Push you back till there`s nowhere left
Nowhere to feel nothing anymore
Nothing that will comfort you more
More than tender love
Understands the need you need with
Understand the time it takes to get home and have a love again
More than tender love
Understands the need you need with
Understand the time it takes
To get home and have a love
Then try your tender love
Push it till there`s nothing left
Nowhere to feel nothing anymore
Nothing that will comfort you more
Then hounded by love
Hounded by the very thing you dreamed up
Chased inside the walls you tried to breach
Sent crashing to your knees
Then only tender love
Understood the need you need with
Understood the time it took
To take you where nothing ever was
Don't ask me how I know
But this dark sky will soon be blue
Don't ask, no don't ask
Just watch as the grey mists of winter fall
Like so many drops of dew
Feel the ice melt to warm tears in my eyes
Uner the light of a tin sun
Do not ask me how I know
The effect of light on unseeing eyes
How should I know?
How could I know?
Dark now my sky
The sea of peace has left my shore
No birds sing
The silent spring will overflow
Oh you'll never know
I love you so
You'll always be
A part of me
Dark now my eyes
The sea of peace has met the sky
No birds sing
And like the Spring life whispers by
Oh you'll never know
I love you so
You'll always be
A part of me
Dark now my sky
The winds of time have swept my shore
No birds fly
The trees that fall will rise no more
Oh you'll never know
I love you so
You'll always be
A part of me
Change of heart, careless mind
Honest words, unseeing eyes
Sobering up through love's eyes
Oh so nice to feel again
Never age, the time is always now
Never break, my heart as it's always
Never age always reaching to be free
They've got plans for you and the cost you cannot see
Parting ways, all song for you are sung
Wide awake, I'm longing for the songs
Parting ways always reaching to be free
They've got plans for you and the cost you cannot see
Change of heart, careless mind
Honest words, unseeing eyes
Sobering up through love's eyes
Oh so nice to feel again
Change of heart, careless mind
Honest words, unseeing eyes
Sobering up through love's eyes
Oh so nice to feel again
Eyeless gaze of the blinded ones
Infernal maze from which no soul escapes
Unseeing eye dead in its face
Cast upon a wretched race
Eyeless gaze
Of the blinded one
Unholy fire
From a dying sun
As a blade through the heart
And a glare of red
Poison the mind
And shatter the head
Unseeing eye
All-seeing wound
Scar in the sky
Dark god foretold
Open thy gate
Draw from thy well
Spirit of plague
Voices from hell
Eyeless gaze
Of the blinded one
Inverted arch
With a thousand tongues
As a sword through the eye
In a fist of black
Souls dissolve
Into clouds of ash
Unseeing eye
Lifetimes of pain
A song for the damned
It's singing again
Bones on the altar
Flesh on the fire
Eons of torment
Devilspawn sire'd
Everflaming
Intemperate malice in the extreme
Forms are twisted, Everfalling
Crescent skies, the wait, The calling
Eyes unseeing, Stars rearrange
Tears of our blood running from the runes
Misgivings fall silent
Excitement stir up the spheres
My sweet Norderland
To reap the fields of ignorance and lies
Trails of omission swept away
Never be found again
Release of agony
So Hebulous, yet ominous is the Terminus
Flames of Hatred burn me
Firesoul - Hear me, Blinded fool
Take heed to the forgotten twilight
Now kneel to the omniscient twilight
Crimson Winds, Ornaments in the dark
The weep of pain, Drowned by tears
Drowned by tears of Northerly blood
Runes of force,
Fulfillment of a sombre ordeal I know
"Pierce the side of the neverending blindness
Then thereby be it stated in the name of the forgotten
Father of Light, Father of Darkness
I will not implore to no master of thin
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive, they may find
In the year 1994
War goes on just like before
War goes on, it never ends
War brings bigger dividence
In the year 1995
Brand new war is born to die
From total damage to damage limitation
Fear is the key to defend the nation
In the year 1996
There is no need for politics
Seeing life with unseeing eyes
Seeing man see through the disguise
In the year 1997
The boil bursts in the face of Heaven
Dragon tears washed away thy youth
Wash thy hands of eternal truth
In the year 1998
Why shut the door of the Golden Gate
Rivers of people flow like blood
New race rises from the mud
In the year 1999
War destroys the last sky-line
A flaming cross appears in the sky
Man goes down as the bullets fly
Now it's been 2000 years
Man has cried a million tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
We survive
In the year 3535
Sufferance
Ignorance
Violence
Consequence
The flesh is weak
The mind is broken
Unseeing Eyes, searching for a way out
You are losing control, you are full of doubt
The whole world spins around you
Your mind is a maze of dismal emotions
The only escape is to walk into the abyss
A sense of delight before the collapse
Going down
Immerse in your torment, enjoy as you drown
Going down,wake up in a numb void
and await the mental breakdown
The flesh is weak
The mind is broken
Unseeing Eyes, searching for a way out
You are losing control, you are full of doubt
Losing yourself in this dark emptiness
Fearing the cold, fearing the shame
What remains are just ruins of veiled consciousness
Chained to your own burden, feelings of blame
Trapped in a prison without any bars
You try to endure, try to be brave
Turning in circles, forgetting yourself
Unwittingly digging your own mental grave
Sufferance
Ignorance
Violence
Consequence
The flesh is weak
The mind is broken
Unseeing Eyes, searching for a way out
You are losing control, you are full of doubt
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak
Immerse in your torment, enjoy as you drown
an abstracted gaze
he waits at the overpass
he follows through the traffic stream
pallid and drained
a witness to frequencies
he listens for the sharp embrace
the glare of metallic sheen
mimics his dying dreams
forming an unseeing audience
an avalanche
a surge of excitement
dissolving calm
a collision course
revolving ambulance lights dim
he stands alone
his glamorous pose
his lonely biography
reflections merge
with wet concrete
luminescent air
brittle and choked with steel
he intersects at full speed
the glare of metallic sheen
mimics his dying dreams
forming an unseeing audience
photographs scattered across the floor
photographs scattered across the floor
an avalanche
a surge of excitement
dissolving calm
a collision course
revolving ambulance lights dim
he stands alone
he stands alone
he stands alone
Light upon a caustic lane
It finds the lonely plane
Flowing down the hill
Away from our will
The light has escaped
Heaven's been lost on its way
Faith crumbles and shakes
Light fails to make its case
Light carves us up
Our penance for constant being
Apparitions fill our cup
The absolved are left unseeing
Darkness has been found
It's on holy ground
Seeping from the stones
To the throne
Words toss and turn
Sewing death unearned
Lies gather around
Releasing the crown
Light carves us up
Our penance for constant being
Apparitions fill our cup
The absolved are left unseeing
Fire bends into view
Its tongues are wrapped in gold
As we're burned anew
The light is bought and sold
We've seen your moral fabric
Come apart at the seams
We've seen your faceless children
Sleeping with unanswered dreams
We've seen the aftermath
Of wars fought in the name of god
Rise up and name your fate
The time has come to burn you down
Blessed be the union
Of the goat and the human
Blessed be the hour
Of serpent and the flower
Blessed be the day
When your strength is torn away
You've named your saint and sinners
With your unseeing biased eyes
Your children hold uncaring hands
Just before they die
Self righteousness, eternal greed
Between these hallowed walls
This forced attrition, down the throat
Inside the sacred hall
Your strength is torn away
Welcome to the city
This is where the dead come
Welcome desolation
Enough for each and everyone
Hatred built these streets
And hatred walks upon them
Unseeing eyes, untalking mouths
Each and everyone
Vacant lonely people
Wander all alone
Staring at the nothingness
Trapped within this home
But maybe it is me
Who's got this whole thing wrong
Maybe this is what they want
A prison all along
But maybe it is them
Who's got it all worked out
Maybe this is what they want
They know what it's about
Welcome to the city
This is where the dead come
Welcome desolation
Enough for each and everyone
Hatred built these streets
And hatred walks upon them
Unseeing eyes, untalking mouths
Each and everyone
Vacant lonely people
Vacant lonely people
Vacant lonely people
Vacant lonely people
Give them space
Leave them be
For they are just
