Lyrics


1. BURIED ALIVE BY LOVE

Again the burden of losing rests upon my shoulders
And its weight seems unbearable
Your tomb is where your heart is
I should have told her
But within me hid a secret so terrible.

To cry is to know that you're alive
But my river of tears has run dry
I never wanted to fool you, no
But a cold heart is a dead heart
And it feels like I've been buried alive by love.

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
If I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile.

If I should die before I wake
There ain't no one my soul to take
If I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile.

The kiss of vanity blessed me with a spiritual murder
And fed the gods of war insatiable
Your home is where the dark is
I should have told her
Embrace the fire indestructible.

To die is to know that you're alive
And my river of blood won't run dry
I never wanted to lose you, no
But a cold heart is a dead heart
And it feels like I've been buried alive by love.

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
If I wake before I die,
rescue me with your smile.

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
If I wake before I die,
Rescue me with your smile.

And they say to cry is to know that you're alive
And my river of tears has run dry
I never wanted to fool you, no
But a cold heart is a dead heart
A deserted soul is gone
A cold heart is a dead heart
And it feels like I've been buried alive by love.

If I should die before I wake
There ain't no one my soul to take
If I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile.

If I should die before I wake
Pray no one my soul to take
If I wake before I die
Rescue me with your smile.

I've been buried alive by love
I've been buried alive by love
Buried alive by love.
I've been buried alive by love
I've been buried alive by love
I've been buried alive by love.


2. WICKED GAME

The world was on fire, no-one could save me but you
It’s strange what desire will make foolish people do
I’d never dreamed that I’d need somebody like you
And I’d never dreamed that I’d need somebody like you.

No I don’t wanna fall in love
This world is always gonna brake your heart
No I don’t wanna fall in love
This world is always gonna brake your heart
With you.

What a wicked game to play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing you do
To make me dream of you.

No I don’t wanna fall in love
This world is always gonna brake your heart
No I don’t wanna fall in love
This world is always gonna brake your heart
With you.

The world was on fire, no-one could save me but you
It’s strange what desire will make foolish people do
No and I never dreamed that I’d love somebody like you
I’ll never dream that I lose somebody like you, no.

Now I wanna fall in love
This world is always gonna brake your heart
Now I wanna fall in lust
This world is always gonna brake your heart
With you

Nobody loves no-one.


3. I'VE CROSSED OCEANS OF WINE TO FIND YOU

There was a time when I
Could breathe my life into you
One by one your pale fingers
Started to move
And I touched your face
And all death was erased
And you smiled like an angel
Falling from heaven
Just to be lift up again.

And you kissed my lips
And with those once cold fingertips
You brought me back to life
And all things come to an end
We don't have to pretend
Slowly we fall asleep
And never wake up again.

We're so Christlike
We're so lifelike
Vampire Christ.

We're so alive
We're so lifelike
Vampire Christ.

In the grace
Of our love
We writhe in pain
And death is not far away
And soon we'll sleep
And never wake up again.

There was a time when I
Could breathe my life
Into you
And all things come to an end
We don't have to pretend
Slowly we fall asleep.

We're Christlike
So lifelike
Vampire Christ.

We're so lifelike
So Christlike
A Vampire Christ.
