From their 1983 album "Burning From The Inside"

Bauhaus were an English rock band formed in Northampton in 1978. The group consisted of Peter Murphy (vocals), Daniel Ash (guitar), Kevin Haskins (drums) and David J (bass). 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.

The rest... well, I can't be arsed to paste anything else from Wikipedia.

I'll add another song I love by them later. :]

Lyrics:

Consider green lakes

And the idocy of clocks

Someone shot nostalgia in the back

Someone shot our innocence

And all our colours have run (Not sure tho)

A broken arrow in a bloody pool

The wound in the face

Of midnight proposals

Someone shot nostalgia in the back

Someone shot our innocence

In the shadow of his smile

In the shadow of his smile

In the shadow of his smile

In the shadow of his smile

All our dreams have melted down

We are hiding in the bushes

From dead men

Doing Douglas Fairbanks' stunts

All our stories burnt

Our films lost in the rushes

We can't paint any pictures

As the moon had all our brushes

Extracting wasps from stings in flight

Who killed Mr. Moonlight?

Who killed Mr. Moonlight

In the shadow of his smile

Who killed Mr. Moonlight

In the shadow of his smile

I genuinely think that this song inspired Watchmen, which lead to Heroes and nearly all modern takes on superheroes. Who killed The Comedian? Alan Moore is also from Northampton and worked with members of Bauhaus in the eighties. If the link isn't overtly accepted, it must at least be considered as a possible influence.

It's the most inappropriate song to listen to today (The Mid-Autumn Festival), but who cares? Peter Murphy's Mr.Moonlight tour is coming!Years ago, I got the "Burning from the Inside" album from my classmate. She vomited during lunch while listening to this album, then she thought I might like it and passed it to me. And of course, I like this so much! ;p #Bauhaus

Do not despair, look at it this way, those that know of this kind of music are a selected few, worthy to know. If it was many, it would be pop, or poop.
