Desdemona Songtext
von Clan of Xymox

Hell on Earth is my only abode
I see before my eyes a memory unfold
The light in the dark, I′ll try to ignore
I've never felt so empty as Heaven before

Here and yonder
Leaves me cold
When no one knows me
Or cares at all
So don′t believe me
Let me be
Lost and lonely, suddenly

That's before nine, I'm not amused
In my only world
Let me be
Let me be


So few, will do alright
And most, will know I′m right
I′ll muse, 'till morning light
I′ll sleep, 'till the end of time

Seven sorrows are my only moral code
Good intentions are the roads paved with gold

Day by day, night by night
I′m Desdemona, metaphorically
A Mona Lisa, who is always still
And you know it's true, when you feel it′s you
And you know it's true, when you know it's you

Let me be
Let me be
Let me sleep
Let me sleep
Let me sleep
Let me sleep
