I couldn’t resist having a go at this ’79 demo version as it missed the lead synth lines that Numan added later, thus making the whole track come alive

Became your cast away
Was it only yesterday?
I know you know just how I feel
I came in from the cold
I had your hand to hold
You pulled my world into those eyes

Was it only for some pleasure?
Or was it a measure of your love id found?
Was I easy on your conscience?
Was I easily found, was I only the clown?

Do you remember ?
Hold me you told me
You lay down and made me this man
Was it all planned
You whispered softly I want you
You drown me and then take my hand
Was it all planned?
Now Im not your man !

Did I roll just like a dice
Your game of chance aint nice
You know I know just how you feel
Was it really all up to you?
Did I feel so brand new?
I only want to know the answer to this cue

Something tells me your not quite “online”
Something warned me your not the loving kind
Dont you stare
Thats what your mother told you
Dont make me bleed
Thats what your father cried

When Im with you I feel so alone
When I need you I feel so cold
Dont let him leave
Thats what your mother told you
Dont be afraid
Thats what your father cried

Now Im not waiting alone
I know you know just how to hate me
Im not waiting alone
I know you know just how to make me….
Make me bleed

Something tells me your not quite alive
Something warned me your the special kind
Keep cold
Thats what your master told you
Stay dark
Thats how your faith prays

Tear me from this cold unpretty place
You can take me down
You can freeze my world

Save me from the deep and bitter
Burdened taste
You have slowed my heart

You made me sweat, you made me bleed
You made me wet, you made me plead
You made me cry like I just want to die
You make me pray ” I long for yesterday ”

Days are pages and pages burn
And the fire felt is a dead memory
Years are archives of wasted lives
And the need to exhale dull reality

Burn away my beautiful disgrace
You can hurl me down
You can torch my heart
Let my ashes drift off into outer space
You can blow me away

In the place, through which we wander
Reason turned around
And every fool
Will see his madness drowned
And every truth is swallowed up
By … this giving ground

What you have lost can never be found
Words are just dust in deserts of sound
Everything is lost and your choice lies broken
And the truth is drowned

I watch
Surrender
Because I know

Now I know you will not see
The madness we have seen
Now I know you cannot be
All that your fright has been

What you have lost can never be found
Words are just dust in deserts of sound
Everything is lost and your choice lies broken
And the truth is drowned

Words are just dust
I stood but you just could not wait
Behind
Because I know you cannot be
All that your fright has been

What you have lost can never be found
Words are just dust in deserts of sound
Everything is lost and your choice lies broken
And the truth is drowned

Everything is lost in the giving ground
Everything is lost
Everything is lost in the giving ground
Turned around
Reason, turned around
In the giving ground
Ground
In the giving ground
Everything is lost
In the giving ground

Brief History:

The background of the Sisterhood album deserves some elucidation, as the songs on the album all seem to refer to the episodes surrounding the collapse of the Left on Mission and Revenge incarnation of the band (i.e. Andrew, Wayne and Craig, who had been preparing to record the next Sisters album under this title). Note that despite the fact that we stress the importance of these events, the chronology laid out below is a hodge-podge of rumour, speculation and outright guesswork, with the occasional egg-white of fact chucked in so as to stiffen the mixture up. Reliable accounts of the period would be welcomed.

After the split (initially an amicable separation, by subsequent accounts), Hussey and Adams formed a new band. Unable to secure a record deal, they started using the name ‘The Sisters Of Mercy’. Eldritch’s lawyers were able to prevent this, but were not able to stop them using the name ‘The Sisterhood’, which had originally been adopted by a contingent of fans who attended every gig; under this appellation they started to play gigs (supporting some version or other of The Cult?) Aggrieved by what he saw as an attempt to gain a title that was undeserved, Andrew decided to release a spoiler record, on the grounds that the first outfit to publish recordings under the name – rather than simply playing gigs – would successfully stake a claim to the name. The result was the single Giving Ground. Around the same time it transpired that an advance would be made available to the first of the two splinter groups – Andrew’s Sisterhood, and Wayne & Craig’s band (were they still using the Sisterhood name at the time that the deal came about?) – to record an album. Whilst Wayne and Craig were still involved in gigs and reacting to Andrew’s trump card of the single, the album Gift was recorded “impossibly fast” – rumor has it in 11 days.

Andrew Eldritch (writer and producer) & Vocal on “Colours”
