Hell Was A City Lyrics by Marc Almond

Hell Was A City Lyrics

    Found me out drunk and abandoned
    All my horizons in flame
    Crying tell all my friends to forget me
    'cause i'll never see them again

    Oh go tell them all to forget me
    There's no love left in me for them
    Something is stirring deep inside of me
    And i'll never see them again

    How long do you think that you're going to lick
    All of the boots that kick you?
    You've had your face in the dirt for too long
    Sweet revenge long overdue

    Oh go tell them all to forget me
    There's no love left in me for them
    Something is stirring deep inside of me
    And i'll never see them again

    I looked at the manhattan skyline
    The bitterest tears in my eyes
    A big ball of slime in the cesspool of life
    Under an open sore sky

    Oh go tell them all to forget me
    There's no love left in me for them
    Something is stirring deep inside of me
    And i'll never see them again

    It took me all this time to realise
    That hell was a city on earth
    And jesus died for me to despise
    The pitiful waste of his birth

    I craved for the filth of the city
    Gold pathway of dreams from my heart
    But acid of misery ate up the gold
    And sent me right back to the start

    Oh go tell them all to forget me
    There's no love left in me for them
    Something is stirring deep inside of me
    And i'll never see them again
