The Legendary Pink Dots – Black Zone Lyrics 14 years ago
The black zone is a facility manufacturing particularly nasty weapons- chemical, biological and radioactive. One of my favorite LPD songs, combining horrifying imagery with wry wordplay. I hope there's not a breeze.

Rasputina – Signs of the Zodiac Lyrics 16 years ago
I think this song addresses sickness or possibly bereavement. The affected person believes their sad fate was predestined: they've given up on getting well or getting over their grief. While their friends try to show support, their words ring hollow ("this will really work" has an aura of desperation). They can't make the pain disappear, and sometimes make it worse. In the end they can only know it hurts.
