THEATRES DES VAMPIRES LYRICS

1. Morgana Effect

I close my eyes tight
But I can still see
Where does it end
Where does it begin
Gazing upward into the sea
Where does it end
Where does it begin

Enticing the reign
Bowing at your feet
Beautiful land of dreams
Above the horizon in the early morning
When everything is still.

Fatal mistress you're only a dream
Forever mine... I want you to be

I grab you but you're gone
The ending of a dream
Back to reality
Where does it end
Where does it begin
I can't see
I can't see

Morgana, you seduce me
Enchantress of the sea
Of many there before me
A delusional world

An irrational beauty
An insidious lucid dream

Fatal mistress you're only a dream
Forever mine... I want you to be

It's not true, I see it, but it's not true
It's not there, I see it, but it's not there
I call you.. I want you. are you there?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me bitch?

2. Resurrection Mary

Love was lost that night
Dew drops on your gaze
But you were so cold babe
You were gone...
On the side of a desert road
From this endless dream
There will be no more awake

Run, before the night will fall
Run, before the light will get you

Angry and confused
White dress, dancing shoes,
Look, so long is the way
From a wood to a vale
The price to run away
Taken from your veins
Memories of your past
Rise again

Sometimes you can see her
Dancing with the autumn leaves
Before the rush starts again
Among the groves, among the graves

Run Mary run
And never stop
And never stop

Chased by the sun
And never look back
Run baby run
And never rest
And never rest
Death's walking fast
She's going to get you

Every night I see you
Walking, going nowhere
Bleeding, lifeless body
Breathless crying

On a side of this desert road
What remains is a dream.
There will be no more awake.

3. Delusional Denial

He is trying to make me mad
He says I need to eat and sleep
I don't want to waste my time
No one can get me back to life

"You're alive, it's a delusion, it's in your mind"
I can't feel it anymore
"You're playing with your own life"

No nerves, no heart, no pain
Among the dead ones
No brain, no breath, no life
None of these words
Delusional they say
It's all in your mind
But what the do they lie

Is something really wrong?
Are they trying to fright me?
Are they trying to warn me?

This syndrome chills to the bones
It lulls me while it swallows me whole
"Don't you want to be fine?
Don't you want to be sane?"
This is my reality
"Be careful what you wish for"

4. Parasomnia

A cross on the wall
Another day is gone
I'm still here with my fears
It's my goal, it's my soul

I swing on the madness brink
A shotgun.. hits me
Too late to wake
Too dark to see
They hit me again, shot to the brain

It owns me
It rapes me
It graves me
It kills me

Time is flowing backwards
My head goes forwards
For a while it will stop

My nightmare comes again
Time is flowing backwards
My head goes forwards
And I'll be just a prey
My nightmare comes again
Please help me
Please help me
And wake me up

This dream is hanging me
It just won't let me go
I slide down, I drown
Leave me alone, leave me alone

There is no turning back
It is too late to wake
A white line, I walk straight
Lost in my mind, alone and blind

It owns me
It rapes me
It graves me
It kills me

Tick tock, tick tock
Goes the clock
Time flows backwards
For a while it will stop
My nightmare comes again
Tick tock
Goes the clock
Time strokes once more
And I'll be just a prey
My nightmare comes again

5. Candyland

I cried when my mother went away
And I cried when they took me to this room
The doctors binding us to the wall
Sometimes the night they come
And who's taken never comes back

The colors, they look the same to me
The white lights of the therapy room scare me
Maybe this is the place
Where I was meant to be
But let me out, let me out
Please I can't take it anymore

My world is smaller day by day
The walls are coming to catch me
There ain't no sweet here,
Not a toy, from candyland I'll never flee

I wake up in a surreal silence
Of this forsaken hell
A gloomy asylum with no light
For the children that nobody sees

By the morning we'll be gone
Only pain we'll leave behind
The echo of this lullaby
Within the walls of candyland

"Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky"

6. Your Ragdoll

I was sitting on the shelf
Broken and left to myself
You could not ever think
My eyes began to blink

Alive and cold
I'm here alone
I'm coming there to hold you
My scars, my pain
With you again
And you'll be
Cold as me

I was your special rag doll
But one day, you made me fall
My angel face half broke
One eye, one empty hole

I'm alive, I'm here
I'm coming to get you

Forgotten on this shelf
No more a thought for me
I was your favorite
No more, no more, no more
Broken, I'm broken

7. Pierrot Lunaire

A nameless clown without a mask
A whiter face behind a tear
There is no red nose to wear
It's just me, pierrot lunaire
Why don't you smile?
Why don't you smile?
Ignored by the crowd passing by
I'm giving you all that I can
Please just laugh once for me

So I ripped my heart
From my chest for your smile
A black heart on a white floor
So I ripped my heart from my chest for your smile
Please just laugh once for me

So I painted a smile on my face
Dipping fingers in my blood
Look, it's for you from your heartless clown
Does this grin make me droll now
Why don't you smile, why don't you smile?
But they left me alone,
I'm giving you all that I can
There's nobody laughing for me

8. Photographic

[originally by Depeche Mode]

A white house, a white room
The program of today
Lights on, switch on
Your eyes are far away
The map represents you
And the tape is your voice
Follow all along you
Till you recognize the choice

I take pictures
Photographic pictures

Bright light
Dark room
Bright light
Dark room

I said I'd write a letter
But I never got the time
And I'm looking to the day
I mesmerize the light

The years I spend just thinking
Of a moment we both knew
A second boss looking into
It seems it can't be true

9. Opium Shades

Spirit of delirious dream
You own my mind,
You own my sight
Bring me to your endless spell
You hold my life
You hold me tight

Eat my soul, eat my flesh
Take my will, take my hands
Drag me to hell
I won't go back
Eat my soul, eat my flesh
Take my will, take my hands
I won't go back

I feel your poison running into my veins
I feel possessed, I lose control
Opium shades

It's a vision or a dream,
Through the light I see
The sacred river runs
Down to a sunless sea
A lifeless world
My visions hang me

10. Seventh Room

Seven rooms as the seven sins
Parade in the ancient abbey
So bright one after the other,
Without any order
The colors of the rainbow
They soon disappear
The red mask call them all

Purple, green and gold
Dancing on the wall
All but the seventh so dark and so cold
Black is everywhere
At your corpse I stare
This is the seventh, so dark and so cold

The ebony clock keeps the time
With its loud and deep sound
Everything stops for a while
The clock strikes midnight
He's wrapped in a shroud
He comes thin and tall
The red mask call them all

11. Autumn Leaves

Walking in my garden I feel the leaves under my feet
That the wind has swept away from a place so far
Like hundreds of butterflies they fly for a while to die..
Don't you feel the melancholy of this blow that drags you away?

I wish you could take me with you
And leave this solitude
I wish I could leave this cold grave
But I have to stay

I sit on my lonely and ruined grave
Where love cried, long years ago,
I breathe the smell of the rain, the silence is all around,
In this place old stories are buried forever and ever

I saw pain and despair, I saw broken hearts,
I saw time drying the tears and new tears falling down.
Among the cypress, in a marble garden
The autumn leaves dance again and again
