The Orchids by Califone

When all the numbers swim together And all the shadows settle When doors forced open shut again A flytrap and a petal My eyes burn and claws rush in to fill them And in the morning after the night I fall in love with the light It is so clear I realize That here at last I have my eyes When all the figures sound retreat The soft skin starts to shrivel When dreams made real become less sweet The orchid and the metal

This is great the original is so damn good it makes this version seem poor in comparisson, the original by psychic tv is one of the best songs of all time in my opinion

What a great version of this song! It's too bad they chose to use incorrect lyrics, which are the only ones available online for some reason. Since the original song is about male genital piercing, they've missed the key line "Their center pierced by steel," which somehow turned into "As center grief by steel." WTF does that mean??? If you think I'm off base, check out the cover of Psychic TV's "Dreams Less Sweet," from whence came the original song. You'll enjoy hearing that version too!
