contemplative"I'm lying on my back now
The stars look all too near
Flowers on the razor wire
I know you’re here
We are few
And far between
I was thinking about her skin
Love is a many splintered thing
Don’t be afraid now
Just walk on in
Her eyes were cobalt red
Her voice was cobalt blue
I see no purple light
Crashing out of you
So just walk on in
Her lovers queued up in the hallway
I heard them scratching at the door
I tried to tell her
About Marx and Engels, God and angels
I don’t really know what for"
The Sisters of Mercy- 'Ribbons'
I think it's a shame the Sisters haven't done anything new in over 10 years; I think if he had been consistently writing, Andrew Eldritch could have been a natural heir to Leonard Cohen. (Obviously, Cohen's a huge influence, just going by the band name, the cover they do of Teachers, and the album named after a line from Teachers. (Some Girls Wander By Mistake.)
Just a thought.
