A'rebours (2025 Remaster)

À rebours, à rebours You sent for me I was knock knock knocking on death's door You ignore, adore, à rebours me You leave me washed up, begging for more If you really cared for me Ah, you'd let me be You'd set me free But what you robbed me of is my Oh, for me, my liberty The curtain was calling You were there and à rebours In the mirror, bawling If you want it so much you are gonna have it all Ah, if you really cared for me Christ knows you'd let me be You'd set me free I'm too polite to say it I defy you all You know twice as much as nothing at all It's still nothing at all I can defy us all Tides are now turned and hammered it all Hammered it all I know, I know, I know I've been running round this world too much, girl Pretending not to see What's drilling me is killing me Oh no, I think I understand What I misunderstood before How your love gives me so much more I'm free again, I can see again But if I should fall Would you vow today to pay tomorrow The fucked off big debt I owe to sorrow? Ah, oh, sorrow, sorrow Ah, oh, ah, oh, sorrow I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know, I know
