it's cold outside
And the paint's peeling off of my walls There's a man outside In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette Now the light fades out And i'm wondering what i'm doing in a room like this There's a knock on the door And just for a second i thought i remembered you So now i'm alone Now i can think for myself About little deals And *issues* And things that i just don't understand Like a white lie that night Or a slight touch at times I don't think it meant anything to you ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By GARY WEBB <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

Here in my car
I feel safest of all I can lock all my doors It's the only way to live In cars Here in my car I can only receive I can listen to you It keeps me stable for days In cars Here in my car The image breaks down Will you visit me please If I open my door In cars Here in my car I know I've started to think About leaving tonight Although nothing seems right In cars I know I've started to think I know I've started to think |

We are young, we can break
Watch us fall We can take some train down to the sea We are glass, we are glass We are real, you can touch Just for now, and then say "hey you, which way is down?" We are glass, we are glass We slip down And old eyes don't cry for me 'Cos I doubt I'm and I doubt you And never, never goin' to doubt We are glass, we are glass They run fast impressions Of the floors inviting Stay with me, stay with me They run past with telephones they scream Well would you turn all this down Trun all this down You are replaced you are you And our dreams are real and dreams are all we need We are glass, we are glass |

This is not love
This is not even worth a point of view In echo park I Pause for effect and whisper who are you? They crawl out of their holes fro me And I die: you die Hear them laugh, watch them turn on me And I die: you die See my scars, they call me such things Tear me, tear me, tear me But I have your names Screaming 'you will suffer' and 'you're all too late' Now I feel young Does everything stop when the old times lapse They crawl out of their holes fro me And I die: you die Hear them laugh, watch them turn on me And I die: you die See my scars, they call me such things Tear me, tear me, tear me But I'm still running from the telephone |

Confiscate letters like D.E.B.
No natural course of things for her to expect Withdraw the feelings 'You can, you can't' I called your number as you told the world Something is wrong There is no longer any normal to me You're my assassin but you can't see the crime Pointless possessions of me and you and greed I looked at you mistaking needles for eyes Something is wrong |

At 4 o'clock we land
And I'll wave my flag for you Interest in heart We are not savage Like children We're people "What Difference" I say Music for chameleons Music for chameleons A dream of Siam We could leave in the morning Old friends and shy We need to win Like you need to breathe I've an interest in games Music for chameleons Music for chameleons Gowns for another show Maybe no-one will come Here take my arm I like the pictures And you like ghost stories Tomorrow I'll sigh Music for chameleons Music for chameleons |

We are
Walking nostalgia Like old movies for real Look at me, look at you Look at them, look at us I'm young Sell a slim body to the man next door Sell a slim body to the man next door Like my sister Surprise We'll wait for you We are The pleasure creation Gone wrong. Gone wrong. We are Walking ghost stories No religion No relief No old wisdom No belief Sometimes I could scream We'll wait for you |

Down in the park
Where the machmen Meet the machines And play 'Kill by numbers' Down in the park With a friend called 'Five' I was in a car crash Or was it the war But I've never been Quite the same Little white lies Like 'I was there' Come to 'Zom Zoms' A place to eat Like it was built In one day You can watch the humans Trying to run Oh look There's a rape machine I'd go outside If he'd look the other way You wouldn't believe The things they do Down in the park Where the chant is 'Death, death, death' Until the sun cries morning Down in the park With friends of mine We are not lovers We are not romantics 'We are here to serve you' A different face But the words never change |

And this is my story
My face, the picture's changed Do you remember me Now I'm fighting to breathe It's been such a long time Do you want to come Do you want to come Do you want to come with me Nothing here for me now I can't belive the noise We'll take this place apart I know they'll find me soon But now the weakness comes I'll question everything I'll trade new dreams for old I've been waiting for you I've waited far too long |

Nothing I can say
Can make your picture talk I feel so tired and Nothing I can do Will make your picture move I feel so helpless but I can feel A child with the ghost here You let your heart slip away If I had one wish I'd wish to talk with you I have some questions Things only you could know If I had one wish I'd wish to talk with you Nothing you can feel Can feel as cold as this I'll sing this song and I'll say goodbye forever I wonder If God is all they say I can't believe in such things. I suppose Some games are hard to lose But you don't have to play 'cos I can feel A child with the ghost here You let your heart slip away |

Why give orders
Why give speeches No more questions No more answers All that's left is the fear I can feel they're here I can feel the cold I can't fight for long This machine runs down If I had a picture I could say it's all for you. Why give orders And why make speeches Give me a reason to stay This dying machine I can hear me scream I've nowhere to run I've nowhere to hide I can only wonder I can only wonder why Why give orders And why make speeches Give me a reason to die This shape comes apart Everything breaks down And me, I'm trapped inside And here inside it ends. There's nothing I can do There's nothing I can do now If I had a picture I could say it's all for you I can only wonder I can only wonder why |

Something is here
I can hear them breathe Something is here And I'm scared Beg to your gods But I don't believe Nothing in here Can help me now Cold warning comes for me Something is here And I've got the nerves Something is here And I'm cold I'm so lonely Do you know how it feels? All I can do Now is lose Cold warning comes for me |

Here am I
Like a target in flesh One more time For you to call out the dogs Passengers With a ticket to burn and burn and burn You will learn I'm still waiting for you you know I'm a slogan, an old story, a disease, never again I don't like this, new anger, these young boys, just make me laugh This picture, I'm so nervous, the DJ, says 'who are you' Look at me, I'm shaking, I don't know if I can move I don't need This attention again I've lost time I could lose everything You will learn That you've nowhere to go so go GARY NUMAN Keyboards, Vocals MIKE SMITH Keyboards TRACEY ACKERMAN Vocals TESSA NILES Vocals |

I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in forgiving I don't believe in I can go on I won't remember why I don't believe in long goodbyes Never look back for me It's over And everything has gone And everything has gone away I don't remember the faces I don't remember the feelings I don't remember your stories I won't remember you I don't remember our secrets My God just look at me |

My confession
I'll steal anything in sight or sound My confession This is the sound of fear And I'll fall down I don't need it If you're gonna leave then do it soon I don't need it Everything you've ever seen I've seen before Leave her to me Leave her to me I don't suppose you ever laughed at me Your fascination leaves me cold I don't suppose you ever loved at all I don't need it I don't need it If you want it Every little girl is welcome here |

The alarm rang for days
You could tell from conversations I was waiting by the screen I couldn't recognize my photograph Me, I disconnect from you I was walking up the stairs Something moved in silence I could feel his mind decaying Only inches away from me And I disconnect from you Please don't turn me off I don't know what I'm doing outside Me and the telephone that never rings If you were me what would you do Me, I disconnect from you |

The sound of breathing
"Protect the disease in me" she says The sound of breathing I have never known fear like this before I remember "The Beauties's old but still as good" she said I remember That I woke up in a cold dark room again We are new men We're the service, the pleasure skin We are new men No words, no image, no hope and fame No shelter You could feel the bitch outside the door No shelter She said "nothing is leaving here alive" |

So you've gone
Singing some old love song I've nothing more to lose I'm surrounded By old stories With nowhere to hide I could tear All your pictures I could tear everything You told me Time makes it easy but you Never told me time stands still I can't believe it I can't believe how it hurts I can't believe it I can't believe how love burns away I remember I can't sleep All your words Seem to let me down Where are you Why don't you call It's been a long long time I still remember I still remember it all I still remember I still remember how love burned away This could be My last song Everything must end some day |

I've been there and seen it
I've been up and down And I've been fighting for so long. I can't stop for all your stories I can't stop for all you young hearts. Been up on the power Been down and ashamed I'm sure I'm guilty of something now. I'm back and I'm proven I'm back and I'm strong And I've been waiting for so long.

New thing from London Town
Refugees of broken sound The sound of breathing and crying hearts This situation tears me apart. The new police will find me soon I can't hide inside this room I'm waiting for the boys to come Then we can move out one by one. New thing from London Town. New thing from London Town Nothing left to keep us down We are not responsible Someone pays and someone falls We slide into the night Silhouettes in a cold blue light Take a look and look away We need something we need to play. New thing from London Town. |

This is love
This is pain disguised as a dream Memories Are guaranteed to break your heart. Look at me I woke up and found me alone I wonder If you'll ever think of me. I won't cry Now you're gone I won't cry. I should take Your picture From the wall. This is love What's it for? It takes everything. |

Assassination of the voice of God
I don't know if I can do it I've found the problem and the problem's you I'm here to pick up the pieces. You won't remember me but I do you I told you that I would come back Everything will be decided here They can read it in the papers. Your breathing haunts me My breathing? The sleeproom still waits for me. Join the army you can see the world I remember this one patrol Been liberating river towns And we picked up the sex skin crawl. We would sing the new leader's song Everyone invented stories The connection was a fragile thing Far too many distractions. I've been listening to the new 'DJ' What's all this 'original' con? We all live in the same museum We all rearrange the same old song. Assassination by the radio I don't know if they can do it I've found the problem and the problem's 'One' I'm here to pick up the pieces. |

This is a story
And this is a song Every little thing that they Tell you is wrong This isn't evil This is a sound And this conversation is possibly down. I know that I'm not all that pretty I know that I don't sound like I should I don't even belong to fashion. This is a secret And all this is true Everything I tell you belongs here with you I'm not a hero I'm no good I don't belong here but my heroes should And I'm moving And I'm lying down And I'm losing And I'm losing. This is uncertain This is unsound Is this a feeling or something I've found? This is a story This is a song Every little thing that I've told you is wrong. |

You're welcome to fame
You're welcome to try I've been on TV, sold my face to you You're welcome to love You're welcome to me I burned my dream, sold my heart, nobody knew Listen children I've seen my future Call it the deadline for now I've heard secrets I've heard excuses I've heard a voice in the dark You're waiting for me You've made a mistake I'll give you nothing but lies, or nothing at all I'm playing a game I'm playing with you I call it shameful, 'the skin game,' don't you? You're playing it cold (Ripping it up) You're playing for time (I don't like pictures) You're breaking my rules and I won't let you go I'm looking for you (Welcome to me) Somebody screamed (It's no use talking) I've connections with God. What do you need? Lost in junk sick No sleep no motion She said 'he's nothing to lose' Love sick? Skin game Welcome to romance She's like the heart of the world I'm still breathing Welcome to my house I'd steal from God, wouldn't you? One more question Am I in danger? Rumours. And I've got the fear Looking for you Is it any wonder? Tearing it up Living on empty |

When my eyes first saw you
A vision My heart missed a beat And I cried I knew then I loved you And I do Now you are my reason for living And now You walk in my soul You dance in my heart You draw breath for me I'll stand by your side I'll kneel at your feet Share my life with me I've waited years I've waited all my life for you You are my world All of my dreams and I need you I'll love you forever And a day I'll love you till God comes and takes me away You sing to my soul You play with my heart You breathe life for me I'll always be yours And I'd die for you Share my life with me I can't believe How much you mean to me, and so Pick up a piece A piece of my heart And stay with me |

I'm a ghost in the dark and I'm yours.
I belong in the past and I'm yours. Like a song you forget, and I'm yours. Like a dream in the night, and I'm yours. The wrong place? The wrong time? I don't know. The wrong face? Yours or mine? I don't know. Like a tear when you sleep, I'll be yours. Like a scar that won't fade, I'll be yours. Like a pain in the cold, I'll be yours. Like a fear in the heart, I'll be yours. The wrong word when you cry I will be Like the seed of a lie I will be Like the germ of disease I will be Like the last one who cared I will be Like your shadow I will haunt you Do you remember? I said to you 'Love is a mountain But harder to climb. It should be forever But love is unkind To me. Don't let me down.' And you let me down. |

I won't pray here
Or bow my head I won't praise your name I won't kneel down. I won't pray to you On this side of sane (Oh Lord) I won't pray to you On this side of Hell (Father) I won't pray to you On this side of Heaven again. I don't need faith Forgiveness of sin I don't need saving I don't need lies. I don't believe In the angel wars (Oh Lord) I don't believe in the Virgin birth (Father) I don't believe in the cross on the hill (Jesus) I don't believe In the kindness of God to man. I'll drive a stake Through the black of your heart (Oh Lord) I'll pull down your temples And burn every word (Father) I'll kill all the angels That show me "the light" (Jesus) I'll drift into darkness And tear out the soul of God |

I'm scared to sleep, I'm scared to dream
I'm scared to wake up in case I scream I'm scared to whisper one word. That's all it needs I hear it breathe, I hear it sigh I hear it laughing when something dies I hear it calling But I'm too scared to move I'm so scared I can't breathe I'm so scared I can't breath I'm so scared I just can't breathe I'm scared to look, I'm scared to see I'm scared of mirrors in case it's me. I'm scared of memories But now thats all I have So I can't leave and nothing comes So no-one noticed that I've come undone. I'd hide in shadows But the shadows talk to me. I'm so scared I can't breathe I'm so scared I can't breath I'm so scared I just can't breathe |
