THE
IDES OF MARCH
I was born into a scene
Of angriness and greed
Of dominance and persecution
My mother was a queen
My Dad I've never seen
I was never meant to be
Now I spend my time looking all around
For a man that's nowhere to be found
Until I find him I'm never gonna stop
Searching I'm going to find my man
Gonna travel round
Cos I'm a wrathchild
Well I'm a wrathchild
Yeah I'm a wrathchild
Some say it shouldn't matter
Ain't nothing gonna alter
The course of my destination
But I know I've gotta find
Some serious peace of my mind
Or I know I'll just go crazy
I remember it as plain as day although
It happened in the dark of the night
I was strolling
Through the streets of Paris
It was cold and it was starting to rain
And then I heard an ear-piercing scream
And I rushed to the scene of the crime
But all I found was the butchered remains
Of two girls laying side by side
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Someone call the gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Vito before the killer go free
There's some people
Coming down the street
At last there's someone heard my calls
I can't understand
Why they're pointing at me
I never done nothing at all
But I must have got
Some blood on my hand
Because everybody's shouting at me
I can't speak French
So I couldn't explain
And like a fool I started running away
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Someone call the gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Am I ever going to be free
And now I've gotta get away
From the arms of law
All of France is looking for me
I've gotta to find my way
Across the border for sure
Down to the south of Italy
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Someone call the gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
I'm never going home
As I lay here lying on my bed
Sweet voices came into my head
What it is I wanna know
Please won't you tell me it's got to go
There's a feeling that's inside me
That I've got to get away
But I'm so tired of living
I might as well end today
My life is so empty
Nothing to live for
My mind is all confusion
Cos I defined the law
When you weren't there to help me
I lost my mind ran
I never had no trouble
Before this all began
I'm running away nowhere to go
I'm lost and tired I just don't know
They say I killed the woman
They know it wasn't true
They're trying to frame me
And all because of you
You walk through the subway
His eyes burn a hole through you back
A footstep behind you
He lunges prepared for attack
Scream for mercy
He laughs as he watched you bleed
Killer behind you
His bloodlust defies all his needs
My innocent victims
Are slaughtered wrath and despite
The mocking religion of hatred
That burn in the night
I have no-one
I'm bound to destroy in this need
A voice inside me
Compelling to satisfy me
My faith in believing is stronger
Than lifelines and ties
With the glimmer of metal
My moment is ready to strike
The death call arises
A scream shatters peace in the night
Another tomorrow
Remember to walk in the light
I have found you
And now there's no place to run
Excitement shakes me
Oh, God help me what have I done
Listen to me Lamia,
Listen to what I've got to say
I've got these feelings
And they won't get away
I've got the fears inside
That'll bring me to my knees
Oh, help me Lamia
Or I'm sure I'll die, oh, please
I feel unsettled
Now I know that I've done wrong
I've messed around with mystic things
And magic for far too long
I feel I'm being paid
With this nightmare inside me
The Devil's gotta hold on my soul
And he just won't let it be
Oh, Lamia please try to help me
The Devil's gotta hold on my soul
And he won't set me free
Oh, Lamia I've got this curse
I'm turning bad
The Devil's gotta hold on my soul
And it's driving me mad
Thinking of an age - old dream
Places I have never seen
Fantasies lived times before
I split my brain, melt through the floor
Over clouds my mind will fly
Forever now, I can't think why
My body tries to leave my soul
Oh, isn't me? I just don't know
Memories rising from the past
The future's shadow overcast
Something clutching in my head
Through the darkness I'll be lead
Oh, another time, another place
Oh well, another smile on another face
When you see me walking up beside you
And you get the feeling
All my love's inside of you
Please take me away, take me away
So far away...
Look out baby, won't me take me away
Sitting here I think
It's gonna be a new day
Gonna get my song till I can't go on
Gonna keep on roaming
Gonna sing my song
What you feeling
When you hold me tight
Gonna cuddle up with tonight
Gonna get you feeling to secure
Listen child,
Don't you see there's a cure
Anywhere got to get you away
Feels so good
Think it's gonna be a new day
Gonna sing my song
And it won't take long
Gonna sing my song won't you sing along
I want you to sing it, sing it alone, yeah
