Electric Requiem

Queensrÿche

"Anybody home? Mary?"

Even in death
You still look sad
Don't leave me
Don't leave me, here

I want what you feel, believe me
Turn the current on

    General CommentYeah, he finds her dead thus begining the downward spiral.

    "I want what you feel, believe me" he wishes he was dead too. The music really makes it obvious that it's all up in flames now, and that there's nowhere to go but down.

    Sad, kinda makes you feel bad for Nicki.

    General Comment"I want what you feel". She feels nothing because she is dead.

    He sees her dead, is devastated, also wants to feel nothing, turns on "the current" (drugs?) to numb himself (and then forgets the whole incident and is looking for her in "Breaking the Silence")

    Brilliant lyrics, conveying all of it in just a few words.
