Face to Face Songtext

von Siouxsie and the Banshees

Face to face -- my lovely foe
Mouth to mouth -- raining heaven′s blows

Hand on heart -- tic tac toe
Under the stars -- naked as we flow

Cheek to cheek -- the bitter sweet
Commit your crime in your deadly time
It's too divine -- I want to bend
I want this bliss, awww, but something says I must resist

Another life -- another time
We′re Siamese twins writhing intertwined
Face to face -- no telling lies
The masks they slide to reveal a new disguise
You never can win -- it's the state I'm in
This danger thrills and my conflict kills
They say follow your heart -- follow it through
But how can you -- when it′s split in two?

And you′ll never know
You'll never know

One more kiss -- before we die
Face to face -- and dream of flying
Who are you? -- who am I?
Wind in wings -- two angels falling
To die like this -- with a last kiss
It′s falsehood's flame -- it′s a crying shame
Face to face -- the passions breathe
I hate to stay... but then I hate to leave

And you'll never know
No, you′ll never know

No, no
You'll never know
You'll never know
You′ll never know
You′ll never know
