lyrics

I die a thousand times naked and blind
the hearts a deep pit of blood and war
lightning strikes twice in one night
you set the cool head aflame with smoke
such is love under a lunatic moon

mystery in a woman’s eyes
get every lovely word just right
drink the venom manfully
indifference is a mortal sin
a woman will stir up storms in your blood

things will roll things will shake
things will rumble and quake
just like a young lover swoons
under a lunatic moon

I lost track of my companion
somewhere in the lower depths
we’re a secret to each other
cruel with outraged righteousness

corruption in high places
a king does whatever he wants
in the seat of justice, a wicked man sits
you want something but you don’t get it
you want something but you don’t get it
cut and sliced up and ready for the market place

things will roll things will shake
things will rumble and quake
just like a young lover swoons
under a lunatic moon

when I have one of them holy fits
put a burning coal upon my lips
got what I wanted and lost what I had
I'll put another notch on my gun
roll in the mud with your immaculate form
while gypsies play and sing
there's no more pity in the world
no more pity in the world
iron chains are winding tight
your guts are pilloried
analyzed and cannibalized
they strip you of any modesty
I'm on a hilltop doing a rain dance
I'm in the forest chewing on grass
the heart's a deep pit of blood and war
heart's a deep pit of blood and war

things will roll things will shake
things will rumble and quake
just like a young lover swoons
under a lunatic moon

you want something but you don’t get it
you want something but you don’t get it!
