Klimt 1918
www.klimt1918.com

Influenced by the Cure, Bauhaus and Joy Division, the third and most interesting album of Klimt 1918 entitled: Just in case we'll never meet again (soundtrack for the cassette generation) is a generous production of gothic music. Vocalist Marco Soellner adds his emotions to the music making it an enjoyable listen.

Selected Lyrics for this Month...


The Cure - Sleep When I'm Dead

Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
Well until then...

Told me I could run the world
If I kept it clean
Told me I could be the chosen one
If I took one for the team
And it's the only way to be
Never think it isn't fair
It's a green-eyed panic (pride?)
To the edge of nowhere

Give it to the chick
And see if it ticks
Give it to the (kid?)
See if it sticks
Give it to the wonderful, wonderful me
I'll let you know on my return just how it is
with all the other boys and girls

The whole fucking other world
The way they grew to (be?)
(The love they feel about me?)

Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said

Told me I could run the world
If I kept it quiet
They said I could be the man
If I took it out of sight
So in a monkey suit of (pins?)
Having fun with all your friends
How a casual (act can pull?)
All this world to pieces

Give it to the (bunny? bonnie?)
And see if she kicks
Give it to the (puppy?)
See if it sticks
Give it to the wonderful, wonderful me
I'll let you know when I return on how it is
with all the other boys and girls

The whole fucking other world
The way they feel inside
The why they never make it (by?)
The way they are inside
The why I never take the time
The way they are inside
The why I never act surprised
Yeah, just how it is

Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Well until then...

I may as well be tired, I think
Before I lay me down to dream


Ascension Of The Watchers - Moonshine

I gaze on the moon as she shines on me,
So bright in my eyes, a heart so clear and blinding.

Shining on my face,
Paled by my disgrace.

Like a star, from heaven you burned and fell,
Mesmerized, I glowed underneath your spell,
Her shadows, they seem to whisper to me,
Devotions that echo the seas,
My shadows, they seem to reveal in me,
My oceans of lies and deceit.

Shining on my face,
Paled by my disgrace,
Eclipsing, she has fallen,
And time has dimmed and darkened,
The moon no longer shines for me

Lacrimas Profundere - And God's Ocean

Watch me fall against my will
Holding my last breath of life
(Suffocated by divine)
Watch me fall against my will
Losing my last drop of blood
(You buried deep inside your mind)

I try to kill you with your poison love
Falling in darkness
Hope you try to kill me
And poison my heart
Drowning in darkness
Hope

Watch you fall against your will
Spilling blood of Christ through love
(Crucify me with your smile)
Watch you fall against your will
Losing sight of life and god
(Crawling blind towards the light)

I try to kill you with your poison love
Falling in darkness
Hope you try to kill me
And poison my heart
Drowning in darkness
Hope
