“Shake the Disease” cover by the Belgian band Hooverphonic from Depeche Mode tribute album “For the Masses.” (1998) Original lyrics by Martin Gore / Depeche Mode. (1985)
I’m not going down on my knees
Begging You to adore me
Cant you see it’s misery
And Torture for me
When I’m misunderstood
Try as hard as you can
I tried as hard I could
To make you see
How important it is for me
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these
Understand me
Some people have to be
permenantly together
Lovers devoted
to each other forever
Now I got things to do
and I said before
That I know you have to
When I’m not there
In spirit I’ll be there
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these
Understand me
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me.
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like this…
