Depeche Mode 'Memento Mori: Mexico City' 2025

Survive

author: Dave Gahan and Martin L. Gore

I can feel the temperature rising

Burning tonight

I could wait a thousand years here

If you say something right

We could change the whole situation

We could make it right

***

We'll survive

We'll survive

***

I can feel your silent anger

I feel your pain

Behind all your sad intentions

We're just the same

We could have a conversation

Try to make it right

***

We'll survive, hey

We'll survive

We'll still survive

***

Well, we signed a loaded contract

Backs against the wall

I wonder when all this started

Do you wonder at all?

We could change the whole situation

We could make it right

***

We'll survive, hey

We'll survive

We'll still survive

We'll survive

Still survive

Life 2.0

author: Martin L. Gore

(Life 2.0) we'll be so much better

(Life 2.0) the past won't look better

(Life 2.0) refined human prowess

(Life 2.0) united in progress

***

We're heading for

Golden wreaths

Open doors

New frontiers

***

(Life 2.0) at birth, we're so fitting

(Life 2.0) unplanned and unwitting

(Life 2.0) return to the garden

(Life 2.0) our sins have been pardoned

***

We're sanitized

Sterilized

Unified

Open-eyed

***

(Life 2.0, life 2.0)

The world has spun

It just begun

A brand-new start

For everyone

***

(Life 2.0, life 2.0)

(Life 2.0, life 2.0)

(Life 2.0, life 2.0)

(Life 2.0, life 2.0)

Give Yourself To Me

author: Martin L. Gore and Richard Butler

Before the fates sing

Before the bells ring

Before the violins

Give yourself to me

***

After the night falls

Somewhere in shadows

Watching the time crawl

Give yourself to me

***

Maybe by my own hand or maybe not

Or an accident with no plan or no plot

Take me with intent or as an afterthought

Take me anyway you want

Take me anyway you want

***

After the dust flies

Before the goodbyes

Under the godless skies

Give yourself to me

***

Deep as the dark sea

Sweeter than morphine

Waiting in my sweet dreams

Give yourself to me

***

Maybe by my own hand or maybe not

Or an accident with no play or no plot

Take me with intent or as an afterthought

Take me anyway you want

Take me anyway you want

Take me anyway you want

Take me anyway you want

Take me anyway you want

Take me anyway you want

In The End

author: Martin Gore and Richard Butler

You’re no one

Going nowhere

We’re all nothing

In the end

We're weightless

Floating endlessly

We'll be dust again

In the end

***

Are you forever looking back

At the past between the cracks

Inventing sense when none is at

Throwing sparks into the black

Heaven knows what's underneath

I use these words without belief

Does heaven help you when you pray

I don't think so anyway

***

You’re no one

Going nowhere

We’re all nothing

In the end

We're weightless

Floating endlessly

We'll be dust again

In the end

***

These are complicated days

Chaos, confusion and decay

Black and white to endless grey

On the nights you laid awake

As the make-up gets applied

Seconds etching out the line

All this emptiness inside

Nothing shiny or divine

***

You’re no one

Going nowhere

We’re all nothing

In the end

We're weightless

Floating endlessly

We'll be dust again

In the end

***

We're waiting

For the day

For hope to come our way

For something to believe in

To nullify this feeling

Looking for a sign

A light to guide the blind

To save us from our death throes

Where did all the time go?

***

You’re no one

Going nowhere

We’re all nothing

In the end

We're weightless

Floating endlessly

We'll be dust again

In the end
