Lyrics Lucretia My Reflection - The Sisters of Mercy

I hear the roar of a big machine

Two worlds and in between

Hot metal and methedrine

I hear empire down

I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed

Get down

Get undressed

Get pretty but you and me

We got the kingdom

We got the key

We got the empire

Now as then

We don't doubt

We don't take direction

Lucretia

My reflection

Dance the ghost with me

I hear the roar of a big machine

Two worlds and in between

Love lost

Fire at will

Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill

I hear dive bombers and

Empire down

I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed

Get down

Get undressed

Get pretty but you and me

We got the kingdom

We got the key

We got the empire

Now as then

We don't doubt

We don't take direction

Lucretia

My reflection

Dance the ghost with me

We look hard

We look

Through

We look hard

To see for

Real

Such things I hear

They don't make sense

I don't see much evidence

I don't feel

But I don't feel
