Well there’s a demon at the edge of my prayers He dances naked at the chapel ‘cos he loves the stares of holy people He’s a damn disgrace But when he kisses me I feel like I could take my place among the angels. It’s like a little death That pours a little bit of wickedness in every breath And I’m addicted. But it feels so sweet I’ll get on my knees and kiss your feet ‘Cos if I believe in something in this doomed little heart of mine It’s the feeling of delicious danger shooting up my spine And I feel it burn in my heart Tears me apart Calls me like the Bringer of Light And if it’s wings and a harp Or burn in the dark I’ll chance it in the fire Dancing with the devil tonight Well there’s a million styles of sin to explore And as you shower them upon me I will beg for more I don’t love you. I just love your touch And my mental barricade can only take so much Of your corruption. Before it tumbles down And as you flood me in depravity I’ll beg to drown And you’ll be in me. Cascading round in my veins Oh, dearest darling demon, come and break my chains If I believe in something in this doomed little heart of mine It’s the feeling of delicious danger shooting up my spine And I feel it burn in my heart Tears me apart Calls me like the Bringer of Light And if it’s wings and a harp Or burn in the dark I’ll chance it in the fire Dancing with the devil tonight And every second comes a little quicker And there’s a sickness coming down But I got a funny urge to feel sicker My demon’s pushing me around And I feel it burn in my heart Tears me apart Calls me like the Bringer of Light And if it’s wings and a harp Or burn in the dark I’ll chance it in the fire Dancing with the devil tonight

Well there’s a cold and lonely thundercloud Bearing down on the city tonight And my baby’s going underground Where there’s no sign of light And there’s a chill wind scratching at the walls And it’s crawling up under the door But our castle was made for cannonballs So my darling, you must cry no more ‘Cos if you love me I will dance in the firing line Cackle at the storm each and every time Catch a bullet in my heart I won’t even mind Because I’m some kind of hero When demons pound at your door I’ll chase them down Scream hellfire at the top of my lungs I’ll turn my gaze to the storm and I’ll face it down With the power of a million suns I’ll light a fire in the dark and stoke it up Into flames that will dazzle for miles And when the storm burns out and you’ve woken up We’ll set out for the ocean in style ‘Cos if you love me I will dance in the firing line Cackle at the storm each and every time Catch a bullet in my heart I won’t even mind Because I’m some kind of hero But what kind of man Would gamble your heart on the words of a song That slips into silence when it’s gone wrong? Well baby it beats doing nothing at all. ‘Cos if you love me I will dance in the firing line Cackle at the storm each and every time Catch a bullet in my heart I won’t even mind Because I’m some kind of hero

Well I spend my days getting murdered With some Grouse you mighta heard of Sucking down on dirty dreams to get me through But these days my brains are numbed And now it seems my days are numbered Oh my darling, tell me what am I to do? Well you said, “My son, it’s just begun Because now it’s time to go” Going down to get well city Going down to fix my head Gonna drink myself real silly on the way Gonna drown in my self-pity Gonna put my sins to bed And I won’t come back until they fade away See I’ve been caught by the seduction Of tortured souls and self destruction And I set my sights on burning out right quick Not to mention my affection For being the centre of attention Stir it up and just scream and shout “That boy is sick” Going down to get well city Going down to fix my head Gonna drink myself real silly on the way Gonna drown in my self-pity Gonna put my sins to bed And I won’t come back until they fade away So darling, don’t be gentle And please don’t spare the rod Just beat me ‘til my bones are showing through You say my body is a temple But I don’t believe in God So knock it down and build me something new Going down to get well city Going down to fix my head Gonna drink myself real silly on the way Gonna drown in my self-pity Gonna put my sins to bed And I won’t come back until they fade away

Eddie Baby 03:31
The cameras captured all of the glances and all of the chances we missed We raged and we spun for all of the dancers, the song as it lasted was bliss But now the years have eaten the songs we believed in And nothing is left but the sound Of six billion people ignoring the magic we found Oh, but I hear your voice. It calls me like the night. It’s singing in each syllable I write Oh Eddie, baby, won’t you come to my arms tonight? I beg and plead you, please succumb to my charms tonight I give my heart But you take it and you break it and you tear it apart Oh Eddie, baby, won’t you come to my arms When hormones were raging, whilst sweetly teenaging, we cackled at thoughts of decline And every chord that the people ignored is preserved in my mind for all time And while the years have clawed at us and tears have gnawed at us, the song in my head still resounds And I hope that one day, dear friend, you will come around Oh Eddy, baby, won’t you come to my arms tonight? I beg and plead you, please succumb to my charms tonight I give my heart But you take it and you break it and you tear it apart Oh Eddy, baby, won’t you come to my arms So scream and shout. We’re burning out like everyone So face the crowd, rage at thunderclouds. Just jump into the fire and run

Well you worked all day to make some money but it’s over now You cackled at your boss who just ain’t funny but it’s over now ‘Cos you’ll find your heart in the backroom tonight Where souls collide and the night comes to life So kiss the misfits. Dance with the punks Hug the junkies, dropouts and drunks Raise your fist up, scream all at once And feel alright So you hate your job? Well just forget it ‘cos it’s over now The suit doesn’t suit you, boy. So shed it ‘cos it’s over now And you’ll find your heart in the backroom tonight Where lust abounds and tedium takes flight So kiss the misfits. Dance with the punks Hug the junkies, dropouts and drunks Raise your fist up, scream all at once And feel alright For you are not the clothes you’re wearing So tear every thread from your bones Chuck a flaming torch to all the files, Photocopiers and phones Lethargy can take its toll So cast the anchors off your soul Let the demons take control tonight Kiss the misfits. Dance with the punks Hug the junkies, dropouts and drunks Raise your fist up, scream all at once And feel alright
