The Sweetest Perfection ----------------------- The sweetest perfection To call my own The slightest correction Couldn't finely hone The sweetest infection Of body and mind Sweetest injection Of any kind I stop and I stare too much Afraid that I care too much And hardly I dare to touch For fear that the spell may be broken When I need a drug in me And it brings out the thug in me Feel something tugging me Then I want the real things not tokens The sweetest perfection... Things you'd expect to be Having effect on me Pass undetectedly But everyone one knows what has got me Takes me completely Touches so sweetly Reaches so deeply I know that nothing can stop me Sweetest perfection An offer was made An assorted collection But I wouldn't trade The sweetest perfection... Takes me completely Touches so sweetly Reaches so deeply Nothing can stop me.

Feeling unknown And you're alone Flesh and bone By the telephone Lift up the receiver I'll make you a believer I will deliver You know I'm a fogiver Reach out and touch faith Your own personal Jesus Reach out and touch faith. Halo ---- You wear guilt Like shackles on your feet Like a halo in reverse I can feel The discomfort in your seat And in your head it's worse There's a pain A famine in yor heart An aching to be free Can't you see All love's luxuries Are here for you and me And when our worlds They fall apart When the walls come tumbling in Though we may deserve it It will be worth it Bring your chains Your lips of tragedy And fall into my arms And when our worlds They fall apart When the walls come tumbling in Though we may deserve it It will be worth it. Waiting for the Night --------------------- I'm waiting for the night to fall I know that it will save us all When everything's dark Keeps us from the stark reality I'm waiting for the night to fall When everything is bearable And there in the still All that you feel Is tranquility There is a star in the sky Guiding my way with its light And in the glow of the moon Know my deliverance will come soon I'm waiting for the night... There is a sound in the calm Someone is coming to harm I press my hands to my ears It's easier here just to forget fear And when I squinted The world seemed rose-tinted And angels appeared to descend To my surprise With half-closed eyes Things looked even better Than when they were opened Been waiting for the night to fall I knew that it would save us all Now everything's dark Keeps us from the stark reality Been waiting for the night to fall Now everything is bearable And here in the still All that you feel Is tranquility. Enjoy the Silence ----------------- Words like violence Break the silence Come crashing in Into my little world Painful to me Pierce right through me Can't you understand Oh my little girl All I ever wanted All I ever needed Is here in my arms Words are very unnecessary They can only do harm Vows are spoken To be broken Feelings are intense Words are trivial Pleasures remain So does the pain Words are meaningless And forgettable All I ever wanted... Enjoy the silence. The Policy of Truth ------------------- You had something to hide Should have hidden it, shouldn't you Now you're not satisfied With what you're being put through It's just time to pay the price For not listening to advice And deciding in your youth On the policy of truth Things could be so different now It used to be so civilised You will always wonder how It could have been if you'd only lied It's too late to change events It's time to face the consequence For delivering the proof In the policy of truth Never again Is what you swore The time before Now you're standing there tongue tied You'd better learn your lessons well Hide what you have to hide And tell what you have to tell You'll see your problems multiplied If you continually decide To faithfully pursue The policy of truth Never again... Blue Dress ---------- Put it on And don't say a word Put it on The one that I prefer Put it on And stand before my eyes Put it on Please don't question why Can you believe Something so simple Something so trivial Makes me a happy man Can't you understand Say you believe Just how easy It is to please me Because when you learn You'll know what makes the world turn Put it on I can feel so much Put it on I don't need to touch Put it on Here before my eyes Put it on Because you realise And you believe Something so worthless Serves a purpose It makes me a happy man Can't you understand Say you believe Just how easy It is to please me Because when you learn You'll know what makes the world turn. Clean ----- Clean The cleanest I've been An end to the tears And the in-between years And the troubles I've seen Now that I'm clean You know what I mean I've broken my fall Put an end to it all I've changed my routine Now I'm clean I don't understand What destiny's planned I'm starting to grasp What is in my own hands I don't claim to know Where my holiness goes I just know that I like What is starting to show Sometimes Clean... As years go by All the feelings inside Twist and they turn As they ride with the tide I don't advise And I don't criticise I just know what I like With my own eyes Sometimes Clean... Sometimes. -------------------------------------- Depeche Mode Alan Wilder David Gahan Andrew Fletcher Martin Gore. Produced by Depeche Mode and Flood.
