Divided Soul Songtext
von Soft Cell

Got my preacher in the kitchen
Got my dealer in the hall
I′m blind to the truth
Though I say I've seen it all
I′m always asking why
I want to laugh but I have to cry
Gonna live for today
Looking for tomorrow
Gonna go off the rails
If I don't find a God to follow

I know, I don't know which way to go
I′m living on the edge all the time
Going out of my mind
Oh yeah, I′m a divided soul


Got my lawyer in the bathroom
I got a hooker in my bed
I'm taking medication
For the voices in my head
Got a holster on my shoulder
A Bible in my hand
I′m the serpent in Eden
Praying for redemption
All evil I'll be beating
To make my resurrection

I know, I don′t know which way to go
I'm living on the edge all the time
Going out of my mind
Oh yeah, I′m a divided soul

I'm turning up the music
I'm drowning out the screams
I′m a man of passion
A child of apathy
Though I keep on running
Life′s catching up with me


I know, I don't know which way to go
I′m living on the edge all the time
Going out of my mind
Oh yeah, baby
I know, I don't know which way to go
I′m living on the edge all the time
Going out of my mind
Oh yeah
I know, I've not got long to go
I′m living on the edge all the time
Going out of my mind
Oh yeah, I'm a divided soul

I'm a risk taking
Danger loving
Chance wasting
Trouble tasting
Liar, a thief
An apostle of grief
I′m a killer or a lover
One or the other
Who the hell am I?

I′m a divided soul
I'm a divided soul
I′m a divided soul
I'm a divided soul
We′re all divided souls, yeah
We're all divided souls
We′re all divided souls
I'm a divided soul
Divided soul
