Lyrics Siouxsie and the Banshees

Siouxsie and the Banshees

Obsession

Do you hear this breath?

It's an obsessive breath

Can you feel this beat?

It's an obsessive heartbeat

Waiting to be joined with its obsession

I close my eyes

But I can't sleep

The thin membrane can't veil

The branded picture of you

The signs and signals show

The traffic lights say go

Again you baffle me

Pretending not to see, me

I broke into your room

I broke down in my room

Touched your belongings there

And left a lock of my hair

Another sign for you

You screamed into my face

Get the hell out of my place

Another sign for me?

Can you forgive me?

For not understanding your ways

You know sometimes

You take it all too far

Then I remember

It's a game between you and me

A divine test for us two

It's all in my imagination

Yes, they even say that our mission

Is only

My obsession

Do you hear this breath?

It's an oppressive breath

Suffocating in the poison

Of your obsession

Can you feel this beat?

It's a possessive beat

Your pulse stops in the claws

Of your obsession
