Possession - The Sisters of Mercy

Carrion child,

Prey for me, play your

Wild card, see the house come down around your

Head, home to me, so much dreaming

Some say I’m growing cold and

Taking over

Nothing, cuts, two ways…

Possession: taking over

Stand these pictures on your shelf

And wear your heart upon my sleeve,

Wear a dress that you can see through,

See yourself inside;

I’ll be your imagination,

Tear apart what you believe,

Make a mess of your conviction,

Take away my pride and leave,

Nothing, but the debris,

Cuts, two ways,

Carrion child,

Prey for me, play your

Wild card, see the house come down around your

Possession: taking over…

Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake;

Possession: taking over…

Somehow the fact takes over, and the fiction coming through,

Somehow I do my crying breaking down for you,

This way doubt takes over, contradiction coming through,

This way I do my lying, making up and making out for you…

Possession: taking over

Child (nothing)

Prey for me (but the debris)

Play your wild card (cuts two ways)

Some say I’m growing cold and

Taking over… Down around your

Head (nothing)

Home to me (but the debris)

So much dreaming, see the house come down around your

Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake shake

Possession: taking over…

Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake shake

Possession: taking hold
