The Mission Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Shades Of Green Part 2

Lyricist:Craig Adams, Mick Brown, Wayne Hussey

I'm lying in the dark and listening to the rain
Reminds me of you and makes me sad all over again
Your measured swoons and sighs
You hand me down whispered alibis

And it's easy to forgive but it's so hard, so hard to forget
And it's easy to see how deceit, deceit becomes regret
I can see now we're apart
How your mind played tricks on my heart

I never knew that you were untrue
There's so many shades of green
And I'll never believed that you would ever deceive
There's so many shades, so many shades of green

So sleep with your snakes and enjoy their viper's kiss
I want you to know there is nothing about you that I miss
Don't wish you any pain
But I don't ever wanna see you again

I never knew that you were untrue
There's so many shades of green
I don't ever believed that you could ever deceive
There's so many shades, so many shades of green

So just shut your mouth, I've heard it all before
Shut it, just shut it, I don't wanna hear any more

I never knew that you were untrue
There's so many shades of green
I don't ever believed that you would ever deceive
There's so many shades of green

And you will never knew that I was also untrue
There's so many shades of green
And you never believed that I could ever deceive
There's so many shades, so many shades of green


2.Garden of Delight (Hereafter)

Lyricist:Craig David Adams, Mick Brown, Simon Thomas Hinkler, Wayne
Hussey

I see your dancing, laughing, naked, sweet and pretty face
And the promise burning brightly in your crystal-shot eyes
Your savage and violent flesh, the cut that bleeds, the kiss
that stings
We're shooting up stars and desperate snows
That fall from shimmering skies

So take my hand and lead me
To the garden of delight
Take my hand and lead me
To the garden of delight

Revelation is laid and reflects on the windswept liquid mirror
Of this breathless whirl, this happy death, this elegance and
charm
The treasured and precious first fleeting touch of a gracious
stranger
Enchant me and entrance me, I know you can do me no harm

So, take my hand and lead me
To the garden of delight
So, take my hand and lead me
To the garden of delight

We're playing with fire, dancing in the flames
And we're covered in burns that may never heal
And angels may come, and angels may go
But it's heaven on earth

When you take my hand and lead me
To the garden of delight
So, take my hand and lead me
To the garden of delight

So, take my hand and lead me
To the garden of delight
Take my hand and lead me
To the garden


3.Belladonna

The Mission UK
You be the boy and I'll be the girl
I'll be your toy if you will shake my little world
I'll dress and parade for you in your finest satin and lace
I'll drag your razor down my legs and I'll, I'll paint my face

Don't let every little thing drag you under
'Cause life can be so full of joy and wonder

Belladonna, I can't resist
Belladonna, I want your kiss
Belladonna, I want you to know
You're dirty, sweet and I love you so

The night can be so full of hidden treasure
And there's ecstasy in every forbidden pleasure
I'll surrender and submit to your every blessed command
How could they know? They'll never understand

How easy it is for me to put my life in your hands
And how easy it is to be everything you demand

Belladonna, I can't deny
Belladonna, I don't know why
Belladonna, I want you to know
You're poison but I want you so

Belladonna, I can't resist
Belladonna, I want your kiss
Belladonna, I want you to know
You're dirty, sweet and I love you so

I love you so
I love you so
I hate you


4.Grotesque

The Mission UK
The only meat that will touch these lips of mine is human
Hope you consider that animals feel pain the same as we
Barbaric slaughter so you can put meat on the table to feed
yourself
I hope you choke yourself to death on the very first bite

We are accountable, we are the choices that we make
And there's no reason for cruelty towards those that can't
Defend themselves, well, it's obscene that someone gets fat
From the pain and suffering of the innocent and defenseless

It's grotesque, a twisted burlesque
A gruesome Halloween, all the cruelty that I've seen

Thus conscience does make cowards of us all
Always remember that gluttony precedes a fall
Kangaroo killers Adidas, battery farms just to feed us
Animals under the blade just another hide for the skin trade

It's grotesque, a twisted burlesque
A gruesome Halloween, all the cruelty that I've seen

Grotesque, grotesque, grotesque and we're all to blame
Grotesque, grotesque, grotesque, we should hang our heads in
shame


5.Draped In Red

The Mission UK
Two five zero five zero five
Tonight it feels so good to be alive
Oh boy have you heard the news?
Together we've blown away the blues

And through the empty fallow years
We kept singing and kept the faith
And through it all the hurt and tears
We kept singing, kept singing, we kept the faith

We'll never walk alone, we'll never say die
Together we will stand, we're an army
Ascending to the throne, we hold our heads up high
The world in our hands, we're an army draped in red

Again we've written our name into history
Against all odds and in the face of adversity
And from our darkest hour we emerge victorious
'Cause we kept singing and kept the faith

Buried and dead we rise again proud and glorious
'Cause we kept singing, kept singing and we kept the faith

We'll never walk alone, we'll never say die
Together we will stand, we're an army
Ascending to the throne, we hold our heads up high
The world in our hands, we're an army

How could I leave after a night
After a night, a night like this?
I've never known such sheer delight
I've never known such blinding bliss

We'll never walk alone, we'll never say die
Together we will stand, we're an army
Ascending to the throne, hold our heads up high
The world in our hands, we're an army draped in red


6.Running With Scissors

The Mission UK
The only way that I'll make the papers
These days is if I load a gun
And fire a bullet into my brain
But then again the hackneyed hacks

Will only write
I'm only jumping
Someone else's train
It's always the same

And I can't begin to tell you now
How many strange beds I have known
I was never one to kiss and tell
But I do have a scandal to sell

Didn't your mother tell you
Don't run with scissors?
You might just fall
And hurt yourself

They could impale you
So don't run with scissors
'Cause being stabbed
Is not good for your health

No, I won't confess all of my sins
'Cause some of my sins are your sins too
I'd rather die on my feet
Than live down on my knees

It's a dangerous game
Running with scissors
Wouldn't wish you to fall
And hurt yourself

It's such a crying shame
To see you running with scissors
But stabbing yourself
Is exactly what you deserve

So why don't you put the scissors down
Before you hurt someone?


7.Chelsea Blue

The Mission UK
It's just like you, oh, Chelsea Blue
To ask me to fly and then you tether my wings
I always knew, oh, Chelsea Blue
How cold is the blood that flows through your veins?

You patronize and you condescend
You delude yourself and you pretend

Too often wiser but also more despised
I swear by all the saints I will avenge you
I'm not ungracious but I'm also not obliged
And I won't apologize if I offend you

One man's trash is another's treasure
And one man's poison is another's pleasure

There's always two sides to a story
Do you abhor me or adore me?

I've been dying to tell you, Chelsea, Chelsea Blue
That privilege is a flight of your conceited imagination
Does it surprise you that I despise you?
And I thank God for my emancipation

You raise your sword to my olive branch
And your empire falls like an avalanche

How can you live in such denial?
Small minded prejudice is so vile
Chelsea Blue, I despise you


8.Absolution

The Mission UK
God, God is a bullet
And religion is a loaded gun
Prod, poke, push and pull it
Every zealot loco is some mother's son

It's coming down, coming down
It's coming down again

Burns their blood soaked Bibles
And she tears the halos from their saints
Turn to love for survival
Escape her traps and restraints

It's coming down, it's coming down
It's coming down again

Reach out and touch me
And give me Absolution
Reach out and touch me with your love

Reach out and touch me
And give me Absolution
Reach out and touch me with your love

Sends her sons to war
Behind a bloody flag and a filthy lie
Defends her greed for more
And watches as she lets her children die

It's coming down, it's coming down
Coming down again

Reach out and touch me
And give me Absolution
Reach out and touch me with your love

Reach out and touch me
And give me Absolution
Reach out and touch me with your love

Reach out and touch me
And give me Absolution
Reach out and touch me with your love

Reach out, touch me
And give me Absolution
Reach out and touch me with your love


9.Father

The Mission UK
Can't stand the light, it hurts my eyes
And it comes as no surprise to find
A broken heart has no reprieve
In all the things we leave behind

I won't forsake you
Don't wanna break you
Don't wanna make you
Make you cry

I can remember, can recall
When once we had it all before
Can't stand up for falling down
When you're not around and no more

I won't forsake you
Don't wanna break you
Don't wanna make you
Make you cry

And time may heal
The pain we feel
But there's nothing real
In this goodbye

It's easy to be kind, kind to strangers
Whilst we hurt the ones we love
And all I've ever wanted
Is just to be a father to a child

I won't forsake you
Don't wanna break you
Don't wanna make you
Make you, make you cry

And time may heal
The pain we feel
But there's nothing real
In this goodbye, goodbye


10.Aquarius & Gemini

The Mission UK
She comes and she goes
She ebbs and she flows
She is as water as elusive as the breeze
Everything I am is she

I swear in the presence of God
That she is an angel
From heaven above just to rescue me

She sanctifies me, never denies me
Always satisfies me
She is Aquarius and I am Gemini

She is the air I breathe
And she is the sun that warms my skin
She is Aphrodite and she is Venus, she is love
And she is virtue and she is sin

Like the first sip of wine that burns my throat
Once I've had a taste I'll always want more
She is a promise, the thrill of a first kiss
Never wanting more than this, she is Aquarius

She sanctifies me, never denies me
Always satisfies me
She is Aquarius and I am Gemini

Man child insatiable and indulged
I'm a mess of contradiction I'm told

She sanctifies me, never denies me
Always pacifies me, she is Aquarius, she

She sanctifies me, never denies me
Always satisfies me
She is Aquarius and I am Gemini


11.Dumb

The Mission UK
I won't ask you for an explanation
'Cos there is nothing you can say that I'll believe
So boy, your mouth is only good for one thing, baby
So get down on your knees in front of me

'Cos you're so dumb I bet you'll never know
That this song is about you, about you
You're so dumb I bet you'll never guess
That this song is about you

Please don't tell me that it's my imagination
That in life we always get more than one shot
Don't confuse ambition with wishful thinking
'Cos we all want something more
Something more than we already got
Let's put another quid in the slot

'Cos you're so dumb I bet you'll never know
That this song is about you, about you
You're so dumb I bet you'll never guess
That this song is about you

I've got nothing to say I haven't said before
So I'll say it again and I'll say it some more
You don't like the things I say
So I keep on saying 'em anyway

It's not how fast you can move
It's not how much you have to prove

'Cos you're so dumb I bet you'll never know
That this song is about you, about you
You're so dumb I bet you'll never know
That this song is about you, about you

'Cos you're so dumb I bet you'll never know
That this song is about you, about you
Yeah, you're so dumb I bet you'll never guess
That this song is about you, about you


12.Hdshrinkerea

The Mission UK
Your psycho babble is so alien to me
And I don't understand your psychotherapy
I don't want your conversation, I don't need no explanation
When you spout your blah, blah, blah and your cod philosophy

And the things you say give it all away
And the things you do all betray that you
You're a headshrinker

My signed Bukowski, you sold behind my back
And undermining is your chosen mode of attack
I don't want your measured excuse, I don't need cerebral abuse
You know I know the truth and the truth is you're a quack

And the things you preach are all in breach
Red flags are raised, sets me ablaze
And the things you say give it all away
And the things you do all betray that you
You're a headshrinker

And the things you preach are all in breach
Red flags are raised, sets me ablaze
And the things you say give it all away
And the things you do all betray that you
You're a headshrinker, headshrinker
Headshrinker, you're a headshrinker


13.In Silhouette

The Mission UK
Just because you disagree
It doesn't make, it doesn't make me wrong
And just because you think I'm weak
It doesn't make, it doesn't make you strong

Push me too far or hurt what's mine
I will retaliate, I won't hesitate
I've told you once and now I'm telling you twice
I will retaliate, make no mistake

Do you get what you deserve
Or deserve what you get?
'Cause only guilt can break a man
Break a man more than regret

Push me too far or hurt what's mine
I will retaliate, I won't hesitate
I've told you once and now I told you twice
I will retaliate, make no mistake

You can't take back the things you say
Or the love you've given away
Success is getting what you want
But happiness is wanting what you get
I'm in silhouette

Push me too far or hurt what's mine
I will retaliate, I won't hesitate
I've told you once and now I told you twice
I will retaliate, make no mistake

I won't forgive and I won't forget
I will retaliate, I won't hesitate
And you will live with cold regret
I will retaliate, I'm in silhouette


14.To Love & To Kill With The Very Same Hand

The Mission UK
Don't ask me to choose when you give me no choice
And does it make you sigh when you hear my voice?
I don't wanna be raped, I wanna be seduced
And if you open your arms, I will call a truce

'Cause I don't understand what drives a man
To love and to kill with the very same
The very same hand

And God cursed man when He made woman bleed
You broke the code, you dishonored the creed
And you dance to the beat of a different drum
And you're under the thumb and more lucky than some
And we can never know when the last kiss will come

'Cause I don't understand what drives a man
To love and to kill with the very same hand
And I don't understand what drives a man
To love and to kill with the very same, the very same hand

Does it make me weak to turn the other cheek?
Don't bind yourself with promises, with promises

And I don't understand what drives a man
To love and to kill with the very same hand
And I don't understand what drives a man
To love and to kill with the very same, the very same hand


15.Blush

The Mission UK
She's got her hands on my steering wheel
Driving my car and I'm just the passenger
Taking me to heaven again
And I'm getting there too fast for her

And when she takes a dangerous curve
A swerve, it makes me rush
And when she puts her foot on the brake
It slows me down and makes me blush

Sometimes when she drives too fast
I lose control and then we crash
Close my eyes when she overtakes
I don't wanna see a head on smash

And when she takes a dangerous curve
A swerve, it makes me rush
And when she puts her foot on the brake
It slows me down and makes me blush

And when she shifts it into fifth
I'm along with her for the ride
And when she hits the open road
I explode and we collide
What a ride?

And when she takes a dangerous curve
A swerve, it makes me rush
And when she puts her foot on the brake
It slows me down and makes me blush

And when we reach our destination
Our location, I'm all out of breath
I'm all out of breath, I'm all out of breath
She'll be the death of me


16.Still Deep Waters

The Mission UK
You feed my addiction
So I will depend on you
You ease my affliction
And I will ascend with you

My heroine, you're the steel that pricks my skin
You are the needle in my vein
The drug that numbs the pain
You are the balm that soothes the wound
The walls of my cocoon

Still deep waters running deep
Running deep, running deep over me
There's nothing I wouldn't do for one more fix of you
And there's nothing I want more
Then the searing heat I felt with you before

I'm climbing the wall
I can't face the withdrawal
Can't take it at all

So please, don't deny
The craving that I
I feel for you

I feel for you
Feel for you
Feel for you
I feel


17.Chinese Burn

The Mission UK
Reason always deserts me
When faced with the promise
Her body makes

And do you think it really hurts me
To watch the pleasure
That she takes from you?

And when she lets you
Lets you touch her
Can you touch her
In a way I never can?

I never can
I never can
I never can

'Cause I'm such an Indian giver
Can't pry my eyes away
And to watch her makes me shiver
With delight at her display
It's a Chinese burn

I like to see her perspire
Watch the sweat running
Down her back

She is a slave to my desire
Remember this as she goes
Down on you

On you
(Down)
Goes down on you
Goes down on you

'Cause I'm such an Indian giver
Can't pry my eyes away
And to watch her makes me shiver
With delight at her display
It's a Chinese burn

She loves it in the middle
But a lesson you must learn
(It's a Chinese burn)
Is you'll never come between us

And she'll always return
(Chinese burn)
To me
It's a Chinese burn
It's a Chinese burn
Burn
