Anthracite by Mick Harvey Lyrics

All of my dark thought tonight
Are blacker black than anthracite
But what am I supposed to do
When you don't care if we're through?

If I can cause you some delight
It's 'cause my humour's anthracite
And has turned to derision
Your contempt and my passion

But my little one take fright
Beware my anthracitic bite
Like a rabid animal
I'll rip up Les Fleurs de Mal

Evil flowers flowering blight
From this dark night of anthracite
I'll prise them out you can't resist
From the talons of your fist

So come on try with all your might
So that the heat of anthracite
Can come and warm my cold, cold heart
And cool the aching, raging part
You're forcing me into a fight
A fury black as anthracitе
So go on and lose control
I want your body and your soul

But I must hide from your eyе's sight
Because my own are anthracite
I don't want them seeing through
To all the love I feel for you

I love you oh, my Aphrodite
With your black soul of anthracite
The more I love more love I'll find
The more these thoughts go 'round my mind

The more I love more love I'll find
The more these thoughts go 'round my mind
