Hang Me High
Siouxsie and the Banshees

Set me up with the bells in the towernAnd beat them hour after hournDo the bonds that seal your lipsnIntone the penance as you slipnnInto another night of bleeding flowers?nAnd in that final sinful momentnWere you just seeking love's pretender?nnDoes loss of loss become the gain?nEmpires stagger on words profanenThe voice of blood cries out exaltation!nnTake this halo and bury it deepnTake this head and put it to sleepnTake this breast and bone to keepnTake this sword and leapnnBurn body burn and throw it awaynWith the ashes of some forgotten saintnWith some forgotten martyr sweet believernTake me take me and sleepnTake me keep somenDo not weep
