Burning From The Inside (1983)

Lyrics:

Her gaze hit the side of mine

So I opened it out

To destroy what you thought was difference

So I lied to you once again

So I painted over you once again

So I die before you once again

'What's the difference'

Come clearly where the flavour is

Seen here in black and white

You've got two seconds baby boy

In burning light white light

'What's the difference'

Clear up what you are

Burn out these eyes

Rip up this place and scream

'I am your slice of life'

Shivering under lamposts

Shivering under glass

Your standing on charisma again

God knows it cannot last

'What's the difference'

Ice inside your body

Blood inside your soul

Yet still twelve faces stand around

Hugging your skinny bones

'What's the difference'

So clear up what you are

Burn out these eyes, rip up this place and scream

'I am your slice of life'

And the car opened him up to so much more

And the money is brighter with a wider smile

And the problem expands inside your head

'I am your slice of life'

The band was originally Bauhaus 1919 before they dropped the numerical portion within a year of formation. With their dark and gloomy sound and image, Bauhaus are generally considered the first gothic rock group. Bauhaus combined a number of influences including punk music, glam rock, and Krautrock—even funk and dub—to create a gloomy and introspective sound which appealed to many fans left disillusioned by the New Wave that arose in the wake of punk's collapse. Their sound proved influential and inspiring to a whole wave of post-punk groups delving into the intense, gloomy style that would eventually come to be known as gothic rock. Its crucial elements included Peter Murphy's deep and sonorous voice, Daniel Ash's innovative guitar playing, and David J's dub-influenced bass.
