Cyanide
Lyrics
Sleep, and dream of this Death angel's kiss Brings final bliss Come believe me! Empty they say Death, won't you let me stay? Empty they say Death, won't you call your name? Oh, call your name! Suicide, I've already died You're just the funeral I've been waiting for Cyanide, living dead inside Break this empty shell forevermore Wait, wait patiently Your death-black wings Unfolding sleep Spreading on me Empty they say Death, won't you let me stay? Empty they say Death, hear me call your name Oh, call your name! Suicide, I've already died You're just the funeral I've been waiting for Cyanide, living dead inside Break this empty shell forevermore Say, is that rain or are they tears? That stained your concrete face for years Crying, weeping, shedding strife Year after year, life after life A narrow freshly broken ground A concrete angel laid right down Upon the grave which swallows fast It's peace at last Oh, peace at last Empty they say Death, won't you let me stay? Empty they say Death, hear me call your name Oh, call your name Suicide, I've already died You're just the funeral I've been waiting for Cyanide, living dead inside Break this empty shell forevermore Forevermore! Forevermore! It's the funeral I've been waiting for!

Perfect track whose current rating of 5.5 HR80s stars illustrates the curious nature of this band's body of work in relation to its fans...loved and hated!
