The Plague Lyrics - Marc Almond

I've spent many a night 

Lying on my back 

Waiting for the dawn 

To pierce and crack 

And the ceiling 

Hanging from the sky 

And I envy the boy 

Who grabbed the toy 

And ran away 

And found a joy 

While I stood in the shadows 

Wondering why

Get To Know Charming Folk Trio, The Accidentals 

Flying towards me 

Then he laughs 

A woman's face 

The terrible taste 

Of the morning after kisses 

And goodbyes 

I could never seem to catch my footsteps 

Have desires, they fly away 

Every day I have to fight the plague 

How can I sleep in hours like this 

When anguish tracks me like a fist 

My nakedness exposed, I can't stand 

Still I... try to remember lips on lips 

Hips on hips and ice on fire 

In gloom and glow 

When did they leave the man 

Photos 

In the mirror of the night I see 

A face that staring out at me 

Like a fallen star 

Burned itself out 

Like a deadly scrapes 

Across the ground 

My voice cried out 

In a gravelled sound 

No one's there to hear me 

But the plague 

Straining hard to see 

Running after me 

I keep pounding pounding on the door 

But it's all so vague 

When you meet the plague 

And I keep coming 

I keep coming back for more
