Annalisa Lyrics

Artist: Public Image Limited
Album: First Issue

Think I’m proud to be your enemy
Take your hands off of me
You’re worse than the thing that possessed me
They way they were
The way they should have been
Annalisa

Annalisa was 15 years
Stole her soul
But I hear no tears
Ever been alone
And heard the voice
Not your own
I’ve seen those fears
Annalisa

Somehow you used ignorance for sense
Melodrama in your eyes
All concern rests with the dead
Annalisa

Annalisa had no escape
Starved to death in a waiting room
Cheap concern and rosary beads
Did not solve screaming needs
Annalisa

Annalisa

Annalisa was 15 years
Stole her soul
But I hear no tears
Ever been alone
And heard the voice
Not your own
I’ve seen those fears
Annalisa
Annalisa

Think I’m proud to be your enemy
Take your hands off of me
You’re worse than the thing that possessed me
They way they were
The way they should have been
Annalisa

Somehow you used ignorance for sense
Melodrama in your eyes
All concern rests with the dead

Annalisa
Annalisa
Annalisa

Crawl like rabid dog

Annalisa (repeat)

Is this the song based on the painful ending of Anneliese Michel's life? Well, there are a few mistakes with this song. She was NOT fifteen years old, she was twenty three when she died, and seventeen when the seizures began. *Sarcasm* and, correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't her name Anneliese? Was Annalisa a nickname of sorts?

Well, I know that this song is /based/ off of Anneliese's experiences, so not everything will be accurate.

Newt, songs aren't supposed to be totally factual. It's an artistic interpretation of something.

Annalisa is an Italian name ._.

Nice try at being a "smart-ass", Newt, but your attempts fall flat and make you look like a bunghole.

it's a song, so it's doesn't have to factual if it is "inspired by" or "based on", unless it claims to be a factual account (like Gordon Lightfoot's "Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald")

Regardless, "Annalisa" is still a killer track, 30 years or so after it's release.
