The Sisters of Mercy
Poison Door
[Verse 1]
Behind the door
The poison door
We search the still hours
Looking
For a place to hide
Behind the door
Where dreams collide
Behind the door
The poison door
We sit in silence waiting
For a deadly friend
Behind the door
Where dreams descend

[Chorus]
And the shadows smile
Lips dark and wild
The shadows smile
And kiss the sky

[Verse 2]
Behind the door
The poison door
The puppets dance on a burning floor
Like dying flames
Behind the door
Shoot me down again
[Verse 3]
Behind the door
The poison door
We search the still hours
Looking
For a place to hide (For a place to hide)
Behind the door
Where dreams collide (Where dreams collide)
Behind the door
The poison door
We sit in silence waiting
For a deadly friend (For a deadly friend)
Behind the door
Where dreams descend (Where dreams descend)

[Chorus]
And the shadows smile
And kiss your memory goodbye
And the shadows smile (And the shadows smile)
But their lips are ss...

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Chorus]
And the shadows smile (And the shadows smile)
Lips dark and wild
And the shadows smile (And the shadows smile)
Kiss your memory goodbye
And the shadows smile (And the shadows smile)
Lips dark and wild
And the shadows smile (And the shadows smile)
And kiss the sky
