Lucretia My Reflection

Lucretia My Reflection - Sisters of Mercy

I hear the roar of a big machine

Two worlds and in between

Hot metal and methedrine

I hear empire down I hear empire down

I hear the roar of a big machine

Two worlds and in between

Love lost fire at will

Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill

I hear a dive bombers and

Empire down empire down

I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed

Get it down get undressed

Get pretty but you and me

We got the kingdom we got the key

We got the empire now as then

We don't doubt we don't take direction

Lucretia my reflection

Dance the ghost with me

We look hard we look through

We look hard to see for real

Such things I hear they don't make sense

I don't see much evidence

I don't feel I don't feel I don't feel

A long train held up by page on page

A hard reign held up by rage

Once a railroad

Now it's done

I hear the roar of a big machine

Two worlds and in between

Hot metal and methedrine

I hear empire down

We got the empire now as then

We don't doubt we don't take reflection

Lucretia my direction

Dance the ghost with me
