Verse 1 (Ryan)
The sky was ash to match the headstones
When he was born between gothic graves
Flesh of the servant willingly given
And the enemy forced to bleed
(Nina)
Please have mercy
I’ll do anything
(VoldeMark)
Stand aside you silly girl!
Prechorus (Jason)
Elementary charms have gotten you this far
It’s only a matter of time
Escaped him once but you will not again
Even in dreams he haunts you
Chorus (VoldeMark)
Love; your so called savior
Your iron shield
You’re playing a dangerous game
Love; when all has ended
No good or evil
Only power remains
Verse 2 (Luke)
I am fire and fear and dry bones
The same charm flows in my veins
By seven anchors bound to breathing
That scars the seal on your fate
(Nina)
Please have mercy
I’ll do anything
(VoldeMark)
Stand aside you silly girl!
Prechorus (Jason)
Elementary charms have gotten you this far
It’s only a matter of time
Escaped him once but you will not again
Even in dreams he haunts you
Chorus (VoldeMark)
Love; your so called savior
Your iron shield
You’re playing a dangerous game
Love; when all has ended
No good or evil
Only power remains
Bridge (VoldeMark)
You’re alone
And you’re mine
Time to die
Chorus (Nina)
He will survive
Some rules even you can’t bend
You play a dangerous game
Strength sublime
Alive in his very skin
Love alone remains
Chorus (Nina w/ VoldeMark)
He will survive
Some rules even you can’t bend
You play a dangerous game
Strength sublime
Alive in his very skin
Love alone remains
this song is INTENSE.
I LOVE this song…
Isn’t it “You play a dangerous game” when Mark sings the chorus and not just Nina? Why would the lyrics be different?
Anyway, loved the song.
Nina’s voice is so beautiful, especially in her little solo near the end. She has such a good voice for singing those medium low notes.
One of my favourite MoM songs
I love the instrumental part near the end that sounds kind of oriental ♥
I love love love this song! Second under The Bravest Man I Ever Knew.
I love this song …
Oh my god. I just heard this song, and it is … OMG, I love this song!
I love this song!
It’s really intense.
Another great one MoM!
This song is perfect.
Nina’s last verse (“He will Survive…”) always gives me chills. Such a great song =)
Oh, I love this song, One of my favourite songs of my favourite band!! I Love Ministry Of Magic!!
I love this song, too. It’s great! I’d listen to it over and over if there aren’t all the other great songs from MoM.
Yei!! ILove MoM
This song is so… urgh. Love it. Can’t think of the words for it.
