Additional Information
Info found on Wikipedia:
“The Marked were a Gothic/New Wave band which formed in Chicago, Illinois in 1985, but later on moved to Florida with the hopes of attaining a bigger fan base. The band’s name was obtained from Billy Corgan and Ron Roesing’s portwine birthmarks. The band were reported to have played around 20 shows in and around St. Petersburg, Florida before Dale eventually left after a small show, later Ron and Billy decided to return to Chicago. The original band members were Billy Corgan (Vocals/Guitar/Bass), Dale Meiners (Vocals/Bass) and Ron Roesing (Drums). In 1986 Dale left the band and was replaced by Len Ayala. Len left the band shortly after and was replaced in 1988 by guitarist James Iha with Billy taking up the bass position. The Marked then became The Smashing Pumpkins.”

Lyrics
Quiet walls sputter yes
Rolling tears of pain
Must I go into your hiding room
Using your loss to gain
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in the sun
I never fear
Quiet confusion haunts me still
My will can’t reign
Must I go into your hiding room
Using your loss to gain
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in the sun
I’ll know that I never fear
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in my sun
I know that I never fear - 3 . Dali Holds The Hand Of God
Lyrics
Everything that you try is such a happy trip
Slipping on a voodoo smile
And dressed so hoodoo ripped
Put it in paper people
And poison, potent poison
The run to the bridge
Was so out of season
Well
A love potion
That moves through on his position
Throw caution into deaf wind
That expired emotion
Who would you?
Who would you serve?
Who would you?
Who would you?
Dali holds the hand of god
Well
Dali holds the hand of god
People die with every notion
But the poison was in your hand
But no, no regrets you
Pleasant smile
Twisted by death
Anyone who will swallow it whole
Swallow it whole
It whole
Swallow it whole
Swallow
We dance to drums
Like the fire seems starts to crackle
Sweet voices stand through these eyes
Position where it’s no struggle
? want to scream
Fix her like putty that rolls
What you seek
I just take your hand
? your smile
?
Straight at yourself for more
Swallow it whole
Swallow it whole
?
?
Just mould like putty
Through the hands of god
I held the hand of god
I heard him say
Send these to ?
? god to do with you
No time to serve this time
No time to serve this time
No time to serve this time
Dali holds the hand of god
Say
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of godI hold the hand of god
Hand of god
Position proper
Position proper
Position proper
Seems strange to what you know
That you can’t break all alone
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god
Dali holds the hand of god - 4 . Song For Jonathan

- 7 . Didn’t Care At All
Lyrics
[didn’t care at all, take 2]
A carnival of sorts today
As you claim the same old ride
The man at the ticket booth
Before he’s seen you in
Hear me call
I didn’t see the lights go down
I was running away too fast
All I saw what was left of
Shadow of your mind, of your mind
Of your mind, of your mind
‘Cause you didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
So here I am all tied up
While the walls are in
The man at the ticket booth
Swear he’d see me in
Hear me call
Hear me call
‘Cause you didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Here it is my missing day
And I wait for your name
You let me die in here
Gone without a trace
Without a trace
Without a trace
You didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
Didn’t care at all
You didn’t care at all - 8 . As Yet Untitled

Lyrics
There’s a time for beginning
And there’s a time for ending
I’m stuck here in the middle
Croaking at a friend
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
People ask me questions
Only answers I cannot get
Giving me the run-round
Nobody cares if I live or die
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I’m always in the way
An eternal monkey on the back
It isn’t what you’re getting
Only love is what I had
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
More
Ain’t got no freedom
Only in my mind
Someday there I’ll be
Leaving this day happily behind
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more
I pray for more

Lyrics
When, I want to see
To see you alone inside
When, we mean to be
To be alone inside
I can hear, hear you
Calling me so far away
I don’t see, don’t see
Don’t see you nothing today
When we walk, we walk
And dream of days ahead
When we talk, we talk
And speak what we cannot
What we cannot say
What cannot say
Cannot say
I don’t let, unless
Unless you, without a heart
Time will come for us
For us and a brand new start
A brand new start
Brand new start
Brand new start
When will I see
See you alone inside
When we mean to be
To be alone inside
Alone inside
I hear you
Alone inside
So far away
I see you
Yesterday
Why won’t you

Lyrics
It’s a murder
It’s conception
Animosity revealed
It’s a passion in deception
Gun in pocket is concealed
It’s a murder
It’s a body
Had my shoulders in the college
Where’s the arm?
Where’s the leg?
In a hefty
In a safe
It’s a murder
It’s a fight
Detective on the scene of the crime
It’s an ally
It’s an alibi
Where were you late last night
It’s murder
It’s murder
It’s a scream
It’s a murder
It’s so chemical
Sodium, carbon, filtrate, phosphate
It’s the season
It’s the ticket
Ride the train
You’ll always get there
It’s a murder
It’s conconction
Final breathing
Evil notion
It’s a theory in a practice
Where there are no losers
Murder
It’s murder
It’s murder
It’s a scream
Murder
Murder
It’s a murder
It’s conception
Animosity revealed
It’s a passion in deception
Gun in pocket is concealed
It’s murder
It’s a victim
It’s murder
It’s a victim
It’s a murder
It’s a victim
Where do you want me
?
It’s the power
It’s the prize
Look at those smothered eyes
It’s a murder
It’s commitment
Holding ?
Evil breathing
Evil hand
Evil power
? alive
It’s murder
It’s murder
It’s a scream
Murder

I can’t see you
I can’t see you
I can’t see you
I can’t see you
I can’t see you
I can’t see you

I can’t see you - 21 . The Dream
Lyrics
As I walked down your street
And I always wished that you were with me
And I walked
I walked behind you
As I dreamed a blackened sun
Oh, oh
And I looked once it eased
I see you there my dear
As I think of times behind
And all the books that were wrote
All the time we walked on the ocean long
Picking up the stars that stood as our guide
And I wait
And I wait
And I wait
And I wait
Fade on violet
Fade on violet
In the dream that was behind
And I know that we can build a hope
And I wait
And I wait
And then I dream
And we dream
That we hope
And I wait
And I wait
And I wait for you - 22 . A Day At The Circus

- 24 . Fade On Violet
Lyrics
I walk the wall behind you
I walk the wall
I walk the wall behind you
I walk the wall
I stare at you through a shattered window
When you walked down my street
I always think of you when I’m standing alone
But we know that I shouldn’t think like that
Fade on violet
Fade on violet
Well I thought to myself
I’ve always waited for you
but then I know, you’d never look again
When I was standing on the street corner
In my paisley mind
I always dream about you
Fade on violet
In my street car named desire
It’s my only fire
Like a black and white movie of Marlon Brando
With my hands in my pockets
Well I’d die for you in a day
And I’d move to the line
I’d drop in my hole
And wait for you to take my hand
Fade on violet
Fade on violet
On every crease
That bears your name
I can’t wait to tell everybody
It’s not the same
And the crescent moon that waits for you far above
This is why they’ll die soon at home
To the hole below
Fade on violet
Fade on violet
Fade on violet
You danced in the rain
Hopeless ground
I hate my pain
As you face dances - 25 . Cling To Me In Dreamtime
