The Cult - Love Lyrics






Nirvana

I float through day and night life, well most of the time
Till I hung up my blues on a nail in your wall
It rained flowers when the music began
Love all around when the music is loud

Every day, nirvana
Always this way, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wish that every day, nirvana
Always this way

I'm not looking for girls or cheap thrills and pills
Or happy to sit on your merry-go-round, no, no
I don't think there's an easy way out of here
But when the music is loud, we all get down

Every day, nirvana
Always this way, always this way, yeah
I wish that every day was like nirvana
Always this way

Take it here, now
Run this through your head

Oh, every day, nirvana
Always this way, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wish that every, like the sun, nirvana
Always this way, oh yeah, yeah

Every day, nirvana
Always this way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Every, like the sun, nirvana
Always this way, oh yeah

Every day, nirvana
Always this way, oh yeah, yeah
I wish that every, like the sun, nirvana
Always this way
Nirvana

Big Neon Glitter

Oh, drag me back, and drag me back
And drag me back, drag me back, drag me back
Through the revolution, without solution
And the walls get taller
While ye get smaller
While we get smaller
The fear is getting taller

A big neon glitter pushes onto you, oh baby
Sex from the hip at the crack of a whip, oh yeah
The wall gets taller while ye get smaller, yeah
Push against the big neon glitter, pushes onto you
None may indeed go out

Oh, drag me back, drag me back
And drag me back, drag me back, drag me back
Through the revolution, without solution
And the wall gets taller
While ye get smaller
While ye get smaller
The fear is getting taller

Neon glitter onto you, oh baby
Sex from the hip at the crack of a whip, oh yeah
The wall gets taller while ye get smaller, yeah, yeah, yeah
A big neon glitter pushes onto you, oh baby

Yeah

A big neon
A big neon
A big neon glitter
A big neon glitter

Spent a long time on this road
Spent a long time in this town
Spent a long time in the wrong road
Spent a long time in this town
Gonna drive away in a big fast car
Gonna drive away, won't get too far
Gonna drive away, don't know how far
Gonna drive away in a big fast car

Spent a long time in the wrong hole
Spent a long time in this town
I spent a long time in my town

Gonna drive away in a big fast car
Gonna drive away, won't get too far
Gonna drive away, won't get too far
Gonna drive away, don't know how far
How far
Oh yeah
In this town
In my town
In my town
That's just my fee

I look for the grand conditions near her heart

Rain

Hot sticky scenes, you know what I mean
Like a desert sun that burns my skin
I've been waiting for her for so long
Open the sky and let her come down

Here comes the rain
Here comes the rain
Here she comes again
Here comes the rain

Hot sticky scenes, you know what I mean
Like a desert sun that burns my skin
I've been waiting for her for so long
Open the sky and let her come down

Here comes the rain
Here comes the rain
Here she comes again
Here comes the rain
I love the rain

Here she comes again

Oh, rain

Phoenix

Yeah
Oh, dig this

Like the heat from a thousand suns that burns on
Rising ever higher
A phoenix from a pyre
My eternal desire

I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire

Like a kiss from the lips of Ra that burns on
The pleasures getting wilder
Circling ever higher
A servant of desire

I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire

Like the heat from a thousand suns that burns on
Rising ever higher
A phoenix from a pyre
My eternal desire

Like a kiss from the lips of Ra that burns on
The pleasures getting wilder
Circling ever higher
A servant of desire

I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire

Like the heat from a thousand suns that burns on
Rising ever higher
A phoenix from a pyre
My eternal desire

Hollow Man

It's so nice to get away, get away for a day
I see a hollow man, gun in hand, gun in hand, it points my way
You know, he follows me everywhere and everyday, I gotta get away
I won't miss him if he goes away and stays away, yeah, yeah

He's just a hunter for the devil

Revolution

Pictures of never ending dreams
I can't see what these images mean
Locked inside me
Can't set the rainbows free
Like perishing flowers
They sag and twist and die

There's a revolution
There's a revolution, yeah
There's a revolution
There's a revolution

Sorrow
What does revolution mean to you?
To say today's like wishing in the wind
All my beautiful friends have all gone away
Like the waves
They flow and ebb and die

There's a revolution
There's a revolution
There's a, there's a revolution
There's a revolution

There's a revolution

Joy or sorrow
What does revolution mean to you?
To say today's like wishing in the wind
All my beautiful friends have all gone away
Like the waves
They flow and ebb and die

She Sells Sanctuary

Oh, the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And those heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn

The sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And the sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive, keeps me alive

The world
And the world turns around
The world and the world, yeah
The world drags me down

Oh, the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And those heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn, yeah

Yeah-hey...

The fire in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And the fire in your eyes
Keeps me alive
I'm sure in her you'll find
The sanctuary
I'm sure in her you'll find
The sanctuary

And the world
The world turns around
And the world and the world
The world drags me down
And the world and the world and the world
The world turns around
And the world and the world and the world and the world
The world drags me down

Ah...

Black Angel

A fugitive has been away so long
A thousand years, and now he thinks of home
The long men are waiting in the wings
To put him in chains upon his return
Emptiness, his bitterness is gone
Journey on to the eternal reward

It's a long way to go
A black angel at your side
It's a long way to go
A black angel at your side

The sirens call a sailor to die
Enchanted by the sound, his desires have been found
In his mind, his life is rushing by
All this while, the storm it rages on
He's turning old, he shall never return
Sail on to the eternal reward

It's a long way to go
A black angel at your side
It's a long way to go
With that angel at your side

It's a long way to go
With the reaper at your side
It's a long way to go
A black angel at your side

The fugitive has been away so long
A thousand years, and now he thinks of home
The long men are waiting in the wings
To put him in chains upon his return
Emptiness, his bitterness is gone
Journey on to the eternal reward

Oh, no, never
Oh, no, never
Oh, no, no

It's a long way to go
A black angel at your side
It's a long way to go
With that angel at your side

It's a long way to go
With the reaper at your side
It's a long way to go
With that angel at your side
At your side

It's a long
It's a long, long, long goodbye
It's a long, long, long goodbye
