The Cult - Wilderness Now

I can’t wake from this dream,

Death walks right beside me,

The light shines bright behind me.

I can’t wake from this dream,

Death walks right beside me,

The light shines bright behind me.

Raise your fist and soul to the sky

Nights lead your cry forever and ever.

Through the terror and the hate,

I see your blackest eyes,

Criminal of all the men

Dissolve, destroy the man.

All waitress and the slaves

Arrive at the protest line

Sacrifice the fatty cuff, can it.

I can’t wake from this dream,

Death walks right beside me,

The light shines bright behind me.

Raise your fist and soul to the sky

Nights lead your cry forever and ever.

I can’t wake from this dream,

Death walks right beside me,

The light shines bright behind me.

The Cult - Honey From A Knife

A running man left thief,
my blood is shut so soon
(she got me running)
I was beaten and confused
on the New York City rules.
I’ve been bare hands and feet
on a dirty city street
The band shit no one care
with a heart of a beaten dog.

My love Indian heart was pounding,
I was running so fast
I was running so fast

We got the drugs
We got the drugs
We got the drugs
Drugs can heal

And all the children of the loving temple
Turn the face into the light
And they check the phase much faster
Licking honey from a knife.

My love Indian heart was pounding,
I was running so fast
I was running so fast

Hit the water and let it all in
Yeah, I’m drowning, get me out of this place
Let the water amid of it all
While I’m drowning get me out of this place
Let it out, let it out, let it out, let it out
Let the water amid of it all
Yeah, I’m drowning, get me out of this hell.

We got the drugs
We got the drugs
We got the drugs
Drugs can heal.

Fucked up children.

The Cult - Life > Death

You break the man
Leave his shell on the ground
What have you done
With your own life, your world

Shared everything i've been
Speak every thing i've seen
So kill your jealousy
And what you believe

You can’t destroy them
The beauty and the youth
You'll never beat them
You'll never hide the truth

You can’t destroy them
The beauty and the youth
You'll never beat them
You'll never hide the truth

I lay down
With the beasts on the ground
Where prophets cry
In every tear a prayer, forever

Shared everything i've been
Speak everything i've seen
So kill your jealousy
And what you still believe

You can’t destroy them
The beauty and the youth
You'll never beat them
You'll never hide the truth

Destroy destroy
Destroy it all
What I don't understand
Why you destroy everything
So beautiful in your hand

Hate strips it away
The essence of a man
We'll weave a golden noose
And hang you from the stars

Hey now
You can make this right
Hey now
Lightning and the fight
Hey now
The power and the glory
Hey now
Hey now
You can make this right
Hey now
Hey yeah, gotta make me fight
And hey now, gotta make it now

The Cult - This Night in the City Forever

All my friends are drunk
Innocence a flame
Will I see them again
I dream of dreams to come
An´ temples built with love
A ronin not a slave

These city lights of fame
Call to me again like diamonds in the rain
Where prophets tag their name
Her rivers filled with shame
Few faces stay the same

Time will never end lords of truth ascend
My scars I´ll show again
My fireworks ignite ah spirit now takes flight
And how the glory came

I don´t mess around
Throw your weapon to the ground
My witches gather round
They laugh but make no sound

I´m runnin´ in the black light
My skull in flame ooh ooh ooh in the night
Pull out your knife pull out your knife

We can make it right

Black skull in flame power and the glory
The glory and the power
We can make it right
