The Fields of the Nephilim
==========================
Burning the Fields EP
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Trees Come Down
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The war is passed {The word is passed}
Now she tells him again
It's too close to hand
The Books, the tales you see
Feel pain {Heathen}
Like the sun out of the golden dawn
Whispered Caroline, walks down the steps
So feel the pain, feel the pain
The Heathen, the Heathen
Like the Heathen, the Heathen
From the crowd "Come Children of the Corn"
An insect hunt under the golden dawn {...insect heard around...}
So feel the pain, feel the pain
The Heathen, the Heathen
Like the Heathen, the Heathen
The Heathen... {Repeat}
Like the Heathen
Like the Heathen
Calling out for the Heathen
The Heathen...
{Music Speeds up}
One more nightmare calling
Across the farthest fields (hills -live)
The night skies are dawning
Takes as much as she'll
Trees come down (x4)
Fall...
"No more Edens forming
A written script on a burning page
No life, just heathens spawning
In this dying age" -Live Versions only
(Thanx Robert, from Watchman 2)
There's a girl in a green dress
She's got eyes like fire and lips so tame
She's huddled by the girl who's crying in the red dress
Run for your life in this dying dying age
Dying age (x3)
This dying age (x7)
Back in Gehenna {Corrected from 'Laura' LP, NB: Returning to Gehenna
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ is different}
All great plains of the Earth
Are now lightened by fire
Now gather on the wrecked land
From these horsemen in iron
This is fear
You've all turned up
Now the atmosphere
Is thicker than blood
From Gehenna to here
A release of sin
It's become our lair
We
The Nephilim
Room full of people
Now scarred and distressed
The time's now happened
And the captured in our midst
The girl in the shawl
Crashes to the floor
Crying: "Hell! Open the gates to the Devils' home"
See the woman thrive
In the blood from Heaven
Burn in banished fire
Like a scene called Hell
See the bloody fire
To you is forsaken
Burn this banished fire
Burn
Burn Hell
Treated by the arts most brutally
People are charred by cruelty
Oh...
With malevolant force
And what about ours { ??? }
This message is clear
Now open up the ground
See the woman thrive
In the blood from Heaven
Burn in banished fire
Like a scene called Hell
See the bloody fire
To you is forsaken
Burn this banished fire
Burn
Burn Hell
Burn Hell...
Burn Hell!
Darkcell
~~~~~~~~
Moon is rising
A million years to me
Soon be quieter
A passing tear from me
Sing the same
Lie here with me
Dreams a dream
They all drop dead asleep
Shining higher
A foolish tune
A cry from the top of the spire
Where a bell drops and crumbles
Crumbles
Crumbles
Yes crumbles
Darkcell is among you
Darkcell is in my room
Darkcell with the mortal freak
Darkcell let me speak
Darkcell tomorrow bloom
Darkcell is in my room
Darkcell with the mortal freak
Darkcell let me speak to you..
Let me out
Let me
Let me out...
Laura (Adapted from the Laura LP)
~~~~~
Tempted white eyes
Blinded by the night
Hollow like the towers
On the inside
Laura's a machine
She's burning insane
Laura's a machine
For a menace in disguise
Behold this night
The four walls are furnished
Now she's alive
No one ever helped poor Laura
No one ever helped poor Laura
She's rabid in ecstacy (x4)
She's on the line to cut it all
She's on the line to drop and fall
She's on the line
Line to fall
People laughing an awful sight
People leave Laura 'tis her night
Laura have you seen it, Laura can you say
Laura can you see
From the light of the catherine wheel
She spins from above
Haunted by these times
My European love
No one ever helped poor Laura
No one ever helped poor Laura
She's rabid in ecstacy
She's rabid in ecstacy (x3)
She's on the line to cut it all
She's on the line to drop and fall
She's on the line
Line to fall
Laura...
Laura... {Repeat to fade}

Bury my face into this ground
Now Joan, Now Joan J J J J J Joan {Possibly "No Joy" or "Now Jump"}
Into a smile mesmerised
See what you are, See what you were

I'm up here like a dying Messiah
I'm up here because I wanted to die
I'm up here cause I like it
(Chorus:)

The Pain ..... (To fade)

Disheartening dreams, are too nice Relax
It's a crime to sleep Relax Relax
You gotta hold to your past, So bad so bad
I'm gonna pull you all to pieces, So sad so Sad
Flowers in your kitchen, they weep for you
I'm gonna shred them all to pieces, like I did to you
Relax (Relax) Relax ..
Relax (Relax) Relax ..
Chorus: I wanna go home, Sadly I cried for you
I wanna go home, Look what you put me through, Put me through!

As she break {As she brain/reign??}
Dust we think the same
Gotta reason in peace, Now explain
Chorus: Feelings go on and on
Killing, its all man made
The rythm of the life is all too strong
To get back..
Come down, ride aboard a train
In the swirling pool, of blood and brains
Well that's fate, My mind is made
May a woman or child {May a woman watch out}
Childs masquerade {Childs masculine, child of masochism}
(Chorus)
The Western Heroes...
Blood, I walk the Highwire
I had to walk real high to see today
Dust, Faith without a name {Fading out and in}
When I finish my war, I'll feel the same{..walk, I'll fade the scene}
(Chorus)
The Western Heroes...
Well I walk the highwire
Well I walk the highwire
Well I walk the highwire
I've walked the highwire

With your daughters underground
Pain, We look like sisters
Caught up in a landslide, Falling down
So far but you can feel them
So far but you can hear them
So far, So far
Reanimator Reanimator now

Pain, a shock like fire
Your world sinks, your world stinks of you

Your mind burns, your mind burns of you
So far but you can hear them
So far but you can feel them
So far, So far
Reanimator Reanimator now

DawnAngel's fall, The Razor Sin

So let it feel... Unreal
When I fall asleep at the wheel
Think about this... If looks could kill
Such a thrill... The way I feel
Now I'm falling asleep at the wheel
And I'm dreaming of the kill
We dream of familiar places here
We dream of familiar faces
Do you want a display
Just stand in my way
If you want a display
Your love in that way... Now get out
Think about this...
Well I've seen... With old eyes
And every time I turn around another dies
Think about this... If looks could kill
Visions back me to the wall sometimes
When I'm walking on my own
We dream of familiar places
Visions back me to the wall sometimes
When I'm walking on my own
We dream of familiar places
And I'm dreaming
We dream of familiar things here (My heart beats, my heart beats)
We dream of familiar places
And I'm dreaming....
We dream of familiar things here (My heart beats, my heart beats)
We dream of familiar places
Stop!
Watchmen (Straight from record cover)
~~~~~~~~
Innocence is hurting, a world speaks out of tune
Promise calls, Promise falls, what are we to do?
With a clouded view, you follow me through
Sadly the tides are changing, my world slips out of you
Your body falls, my body calls, what are we to do
With a clouded view, you follow me through
My lifes turning pages, i see a promised day
Watchmen never age here, they just sleep in vain
Drowning people stare here, they don't care to call
So I rebury the pages, Kthulhu calls...
You'll see, you'll see her when she starts to form
You'll see, you'll see her when she starts to call
In the name of Jesus Christ won't you fear my name
I've been around since Moses, your preacher never came
You'll see, you'll see her when she starts to form
You'll see, you'll see her when she starts to call
Follow me...
You sleep, you sleep, follow me
It's just another day, remember I am calling you
Just another day, remember she's calling for you
Just another day, Kthulhu I am calling for you
Just another day, An empire has fallen from view
You sleep, you sleep
Follow me
You sleep, you sleep
You cannot follow me
Phobia
~~~~~~
He drains all of my lifeforce
A body like a unicorn
Its a phobia
In this crowded room
The people just stare
Silver sun entering space,
I want to just pass around
It's now in my face
All my days am I human or worse
All my days, I'm turning over
All my days, I'm turning over
There's a land
The dead has captured
It's no less beautiful
It's a phobia
In this crowded room
The people just stare
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground {to bleed apart your ground}
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
Aaahhhhh....
All my days, I'm turning over
The last time around, Here we go
I should be in Heaven, But I don't go {I think it's "glow"}
All my days am I human or worse
All my days, I'm turning over
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
Moonchild { I haven't a clue with this one}

Moonchild... Moonchild Moonchild Moonchild
Well it's a righteous dream, out of mind yeah
A righteous dream, out of mind yeah
{Is it right just dreaming out of my day}
Take your horses
Let them crawl
Put them in their cages
(That's righteous for your soul)
Open your eyes
Despite what seems
Longevity
That's a righteous part of me
Chorus: Moonchild
Lower me down, lower me down
Moonchild... lower me down down down down down down
Well it's a righteous day, out of mind yeah
A righteous day
Never return, I'm waiting no more
They take no prisoners in the promised war
I'll die for this
I'll die for this
Take it away
Chorus:
(Moonchild)
Take off for safer places
Can't you see
You're losing me {He sure is, losing me that is :-)}
Chorus:

Reminiscing in an empty hall {This is wrong}
You can't see for they've burned before
Well they take you down and they'll bear your shame

The Preacher says to all his men: I hear Godly laughter
Can it be the end?
With eyes on fire, couldn't be so cold
I hear Godly laughter, let it be the end
Let it be the end
Well I hate your conscience, Let's skip this world
I hate your Gods people who breed on earth {I hate your God he put me/
Over to the other side, I'm caught stepping out greed on earth}
Over to the other side, Save your brothers now
Let it be the end
Eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes {Possibly: Ice!}
Honest men, These worthy men
In all my dreams, I hear Godly laughter
Unleash your souls, The Faceless knows
I'm disclosed, It's not the God I'm after
Let it be the end, let it be the end
Let it be the end believe us Chord of Souls
Let it be the end, let it be the end
Let it be the end between us Chord of Souls
Eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes
And I hate your country, And I hate your world
I hate your Gods people who breed on earth {...who breathe on...}
Over to the other side, I'm caught stepping out
Over to the other side
I'm gonna recreate a religious experience to tear my fucking heart out
The End!- Believe us
Let it be the end
May the End believe us

May the End believe us
Let it be the end, let it be the end between us chord of souls
Let it end, let it end, let it end

From their comas rise
For a lesser blessed
It seems honest here
Chorus Celebrate, Give love and praise
Celebrate, For our lesser days
Obsessions in your eyes
The peril of my life

With no grace in mind
See the magan blind

Bridge And you turn
You find new highways
And you'll turn
The lady you'll burn
This moment's all
You have it there
This moment hangs
Like your ragged hair
Celebrate, Give love and praise

Love Under Will Taken from The Watchman (issue 1)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I need to be alone tonight
Smother me or suffer
Lay down I'll die tonight
Smother me or suffer
When I'm gone, wait here
Discover all of life's surprises
When I'm gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good smile
If you pass through my soul tonight
Gather all his troubles
Tomorrow's long eternal night
Gather for tomorrow
When I'm gone wait here
Discovers all of earth's surprises
When I'm gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good smile
Chorus: Between the cracks and hollows -
the earth is good,the earth is good
Between the cracks and hollows -
the earth is good,the earth is good
Lay down, lay down, lay down for me
Lay down, lay down, lay down with me
When I'm gone wait here
Discover all of lifes surprises
When i'am gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good bye
Chorus:
Hey embrace me, someone's gonna suffer
Lay lay lay it on lay lay lay it on me
Someone
Hey embrace me someone's gonna suffer {Repeat to fade}
Sweet dreams my Angel
At last good bye

Last Exit For the Lost (Straight from album cover)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Would you pay lifes pleasures to see me?
Does it hurt, for I want you to remain?
I run your hair through, in another decade
Summerland holds me, in Sumerian haze
Pain in places, where the lovers mourn
Arranging the play things, up and down the hall
Forever Remain, for every day
My honour remains, Forever Remain
Between the spaces along the wall
Appearing faces that disappear at dawn
We're getting closer, i can see the door
Closer and closer, Kthulhu calls
Forever Remain, Forever Remain
You'll seek it, it'll take a while
You'll seek this, if it's a thousand miles
Take what fate brings, eternal and desire
I'll change those faces, then I take their smile
We're getting close to you, i can see the door
Closer and closer, or is it there at all
Forever Remain, Forever Remain
This could be my last regress, Last Exit for the Lost
This could be my last regress, Last Exit for the Lost
This could be my last regress, Precious for the lost

Revision 4. 11 Feb '93.
(Kind of) Transcribed by John Mc Donagh (mcdonghj@unix2.tcd.ie)
Particular thanks to Robert Schmitz who types in *most* of the lyrics for
Psychonaut from the Watchman. Also thanks to Spiggy who is on the search for
all of the chants. (She got the 'Xi dingir...' bit at the end.)
Psychonaut (lib III)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pray now for how long
We're falling from ecstasy
Like changelings
Freedom returned for new souls
Here or after
Well enrapture me and i'll change
I stand alone inside you
I stand alone the skies bruised
Let it spill from my mouth
Sweet nectar for a thousand young
Are you ready for this -
Here i come
Pray now for ours, pray for me
who could you love {Subtly sounds like: Cthuthlu}
We're falling from ecstasy
And you deserve us Leviathan
you deserve us Leviathan
What are children now, but our curses come
And glory days, our kingdom come
You look older, time stalls
Freedom sold us
Pray now for how long
Pray for me, who could you love
We're falling from ecstasy
And you deserve us Leviathan
You deserve us Leviathan
Pray for me
Let us gather hallucinations from our private minds
Let us witness the reincarnation of the Sun
{Misc. chants}
Leviathan
May the mountains shake you to the core
Xi dingir anna kanpa, Xi dingir kia kanpa... {Envea rechne..}
{Ad lib the chants... switch kia/anna}
Pray for Leviathan, Leviathan
Pray for Leviathan, Leviathan
Pray for Leviathan, Leviathan
Pray for Leviathan, hear them come
Pray now, pray now, yes I do
Pray for me, pray for me
And you deserve us...
And you deserve us...

You find new highways
