DEPECHE MODE - ULTRA (1997)
1. BARREL OF A GUN
Do
you mean this horny creep
Set upon weary feet
Who looks in need
of sleep
That doesn't come
This
twisted, tortured mess
This bed of sinfulness
Who's longing for
some rest
And feeling numb
What
do you expect of me
What is it you want
Whatever you've planned
for me
I'm not the one
A
vicious appetite
Visits me each night
And won't be
satisfied
Won't be denied
An
unbearable pain
A beating in my brain
That leaves the mark of
Cain
Right here inside
What
am I supposed to do
When everything that I've done
Is leading
me to conclude
I'm not the one
Whatever
I've done
I've been staring down the barrel of a gun
Is
there something you need from me
Are you having your fun
I
never agreed to be
Your holy one
Whatever
I've done
I've been staring down the barrel of a gun
2.
THE LOVE THIEVES
Oh
the tears that you weep
For the poor tortured souls
Who fall at
your feet
With all their love begging bowls
All the clerks and
the tailors
The sharks and the sailors
All good at their
trades
But they'll always be failures
Alms
for the poor
For the wretched disciples
And the love that they
swore
With their hearts on the bible
Beseeching the honour
To
sit at your table
And feast on your holiness
As long as they're
able
Love
needs its martyrs
Needs its sacrifices
They live for your
beauty
And pay for their vices
Love will be the death of
My
lonely soul brothers
But their spirits shall live on in
The
hearts of all lovers
You're
holding court
With your lips and your smile
Your body's a
halo
Their minds are on trial
Sure as adam is eve
Sure as
Jonah turned whaler
They're crooked love thieves
And you are
their jailor
Love
needs its martyrs
Needs its sacrifices
They live for your
beauty
And pay for their vices
Love will be the death of
My
lonely soul brothers
But their spirit shall live on in
The
hearts of all lovers

HOME
Here
is a song
From the wrong side of town
Where I'm bound
To the
ground
By the loneliest sound
That pounds from within
And is
pinning me down
Here
is a page
From the emptiest stage
A cage or the heaviest cross
ever made
A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid
And
I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For
singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here
The
heat and the sickliest
Sweet smelling sheets
That cling to the
backs of my knees
And my feet
But I'm drowning in time
To a
desperate beat
And
I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For
singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong
Feels
like home
I should have known
From my first breath
God send
the only true friend
I call mine
Pretend that I'll make
amends
The next time
Befriend the glorious end of the line
And
I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For
singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here

IT´S NO GOOD
I'm
going to take my time
I have all the time in the world
To make
you mine
It is written in the stars above
The gods
decree
You'll be right here by my side
Right next to me
You
can run, but you cannot hide
Don't
say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love
me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without
me
I know you can't be
'Cause it's no good
I'll
be fine
I'll be waiting patiently
Till you see the signs
And
come running to my open arms
When will you realise
Do we have
to wait till our worlds collide
Open up your eyes
You can't
turn back the tide
Don't
say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love
me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without
me
I know you can't be
'Cause it's no good
I'm
going to take my time
I have all the time in the world
To make
you mine
It is written in the stars above
Don't
say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love
me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without
me
I know you can't be
'Cause it's no good

USELESS
Well
it's about time
It's beginning to hurt
Time you made up your
mind
Just what is it all worth
All
my useless advice
All my hanging around
All your cutting down
to size
All my bringing you down
Watch
the clock on the wall
Feel the slowing of time
Hear a voice in
the hall
Echoing in my mind
All
your stupid ideals
You've got your head in the clouds
You
should see how it feels
With your feet on the ground
Here
I stand the accused
With your fist in my face
Feeling tired and
bruised
With the bitterest taste
All
my useless advice
All my hanging around
All your cutting down
to size
All my bringing you down
All
your stupid ideals
You've got your head in the clouds
You
should see how it feels
With your feet on the ground

SISTER OF NIGHT
Sister
of night
When the hunger descends
And your body's a fire
An
inferno that never ends
An eternal flame
That burns in desire's
name
Sister
of night
When the longing returns
Giving voice to the
flame
Calling you through flesh that burns
Breaking down your
will
To move in for the kill
Oh
sister
Come for me
Embrace me
Assure me
Hey sister
I
feel it too
Sweet sister
Just feel me
I'm trembling
You
heal me
Hey sister
I feel it too
Sister
of night
In your saddest dress
As you walk through the
light
You're desperate to impress
So you slide to the
floor
Feeling insecure
Sister
of night
With the loneliest eyes
Tell yourself it's
alright
He'll make such a perfect prize
But the cold light of
day
Will give the game away
Oh
sister
Come for me
Embrace me
Assure me
Hey sister
I
feel it too
Sweet sister
Just feel me
I'm
trembling
You heal me
Hey sister
I feel it too

FREESTATE
I
can hear your soul crying
Listen to your spirit sighing
I can
feel your desperation
Emotional deprivation
Let
yourself go
Let yourself go
Let your feelings show
Picking
up the conversation
Deep in your imagination
Tune into the
lonely voices
Talking of their only choices
Let
yourself go
Let yourself go
Let your spirit grow
Step
out of your cage
And onto the stage
It's time to start
Playing
your part
Freedom awaits
Open the gates
Open your
mind
Freedom's a state
I
can taste the tears falling
The bitterness inside you
calling
Yearning for a liberation
Emotional emancipation
Let
yourself go
Let yourself go
Let your senses overflow
Step
out of your cage
And onto the stageIt's time to
start
Playing your part
Freedom awaits
Open the gates
Open
your mind
Freedom's a state

THE BOTTOM LINE
Like
a cat
Dragged in from the rain
Who goes straight back out
To
do it all over again
I'll be back for more
It's something
That
is out of our hands
Something we will never understand
It's a
hidden law
The apple falls
Destiny calls
I follow you
Like
a pawn
On the eternal board
Who's never quite sure
What he's
moved towards
I walk blindly on
And heaven is in front of
me
Your heaven beckons me enticingly
When I arrive
It's
gone
The river flows
The wise man knows
I follow you
I'm
yearning
I'm burning
I feel love's wheels turning
Like
a moth on love's bright light
I will get burned
each and every
night
I'm dying to(o)
The sun will shine
The bottom line
I
follow you
11.
INSIGHT
This
is an insight
Into my life
This is a strange flight
I'm
taking
My true will
Carries me along
This
is a soul dance
Embracing me
This is the first chance
To put
things right
Moving on
Guided by the light
And
the spirit of love
Is rising within me
Talking to you
now
Telling you clearly
The fire still burns
Wisdom
of ages
Rush over me
Heighten my senses
Enlighten me
Lead
me on
Eternally
And
the spirit of love
Is rising within me
Talking to you
now
Telling you clearly
The fire still burns
I'm
talking to you now
The fire still burns
Whatever you do
now
You've got to give love
The world still turns
I'm talking to you now

ONLY WHEN I LOSE MYSELF
It's
Only When I Lose Myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I
find myself
It's Only When I Lose Myself in someone else
Then I
find myself
I find myself
Something beautiful is happening
inside for me
Something sensual, it's full of fire and mystery
I
feel hypnotized, I feel paralyzed
I have found heaven
There's
a thousand reasons
Why I should not spent my time with you
For
every reason not to be here I can think of two
Keep me hanging
on
Feeling nothing's wrong
Inside your heaven
It's
Only When I Lose Myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I
find myself
It's Only When I Lose Myself in someone else
Then I
find myself
I find myself
I
can feel the emptiness inside me fade & disappear
There's a
feeling of content that now you are here
I feel satisfied
I
belong inside
Your velvet heaven
Did
I need to sell my soul
For pleasure like this
Did I have to
lose control
To treasure your kiss
Did I need to place my
heart
In the palm of your hand
Before I could even
start
To understand
It's
Only When I Lose Myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I
find myself
It's Only When I Lose Myself in someone else
That I
find my life
I find myself
It's Only When I Lose Myself in
someone else
Then I find myself
I find myself

SURRENDER
Laying
on your holy bed
By the hallowed goal
Feeling like an
infidel
Not worthy of your call
Tainted by your
innocence
Beckoned to my fate
I won't face the consequence
I
wouldn't hesitate
I'm
a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
Passion
flaming in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again,yeah!
Shackled
like an animal
Chained to my desires
Just another sacrifice
To
love's eternal fires
Tame me with your tendemess
And
break my brittle heart
Easily an allied girl
You tear my world
apart
I'm
a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
Passion
flaming in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again,yeah!
We're
living in a world full of illusion
Everything is so unreal
My
mind is in a state of confusion
But I can't deny the way I feel
I'm
a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
Passion
flaming in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again,yeah!
I'm
a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
Passion
flaming in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again,yeah!
I'm
a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
