Gary Numan | Before You Hate It | /g/gary+numan/before+you+hate+it_20632051.html | Here it comes again
That old familiar pain
Here it comes again
Now it has a name
What am I to do?
And where am I to go?
Here it comes again
I am not myself
Do you think of me?
Do you think of me?
Here it comes again
I'm Tortured and deceived
Here it comes again
If only I'd believed
What am I to say?
And where am I to die?
Here it comes again
And I am not myself
Do you think of me?
Do you think of me?
I'll tell you something that you don't know
I'll tell you something that you don't know
Once is always so don't call me
Once is always so don't call me

Gary Numan | Berserker | /g/gary+numan/berserker_20058283.html | 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 now
Nothing here for me now
I can't believe the noise
We'll take this place apart
I won't be here for long
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

Gary Numan | Big Noise Transmission | /g/gary+numan/big+noise+transmission_20982008.html | Did I ever tell you what happened before?
I was walking in the shadow of my death
Did I ever tell you what happened before?
I was hiding from the big lie
Did I ever tell you what happened before?
I was followed by the vision of my god
Did I ever tell you what happened before?
I was hiding in a dead soul
Come on little fucker can you let me out
Come on little fucker can you let me out
Come on little fucker can you let me out
Come on little fucker can you let me out
Captured underground, big noise transmission
Captured underground, my big noise transmission
Did I ever tell this has happened before?
You've been walking in the shadow of my death
Did I ever tell this has happened before?
You've been hiding from the big lie
Did I ever tell this has happened before?
You've been following the visions of my god
Did I ever tell this has happened before?
You've been living in my dead soul
Come on little fucker can you let me out
Come on little fucker can you let me out
Come on little fucker can you let me out
Come on little fucker can you let me out
Captured underground, big noise transmission
Captured underground, my big noise transmission
Captured underground, big noise transmission
Captured underground, my big noise transmission
Captured underground, big noise transmission
Captured underground, my big noise transmission
Captured underground, big noise transmission
Captured underground, my big noise transmission
Captured underground, gig noise transmission
Captured underground, my big noise transmission

Gary Numan | Bleed | /g/gary+numan/bleed_20058438.html | Someone is talking
But it's not conversation,
Sounds more like a voice in my head.
It says
'I live in nightmares
I'm the new god of panic
And I'm waiting for you to come home to me.
'So boy, welcome to sleep
I'm gonna make you, make you, make you bleed.'
I could be dreaming
But then maybe that's fatal.
There's nowhere to hide in your dreams.
I'm so uneasy
I'm shaking and nervous.
I'm alone in my room and I'm scared of it.
So, don't let me sleep
It's gonna make me, make me, make me bleed.
My mother told me
'Don't believe in ghost stories.
There's nothing to hurt you in here.'
But she was wrong
And now it's come back to haunt me.
It says it won't leave me alive for long.
I don't want to sleep.
It's gonna make me, make me, make me bleed.

Gary Numan | Blind | /g/gary+numan/blind_20632050.html | I Put my fear back in its box
And I Put the box where love is blind
And I walk in the dark
Where pain waits smiling
And I know that I can't leave
I look at what I've become
I'm a pure and perfect lie
Like a blind man falling
Scared and helpless
And I'm still falling from grace
I'm so cold
Don't leave me blind
I'm so cold
Don't leave me blinded
I don't know why I'm afraid
I don't know why I'm unsure
And if it all comes down to
What I'm feeling
I don't know what I can say
I'm so cold
Don't leave me blind
I'm so cold
Don't leave me blinded
I stumble
In the depths of my sin
On my knees
I'm a sick man drowning
I belong
But for you it's down to
Who you know
And do you need this?
I'm so cold
Don't leave me blind
I'm so cold
Don't leave me blinded

Gary Numan | Blue Eyes | /g/gary+numan/blue+eyes_20058531.html | Well you're pretty quick to say you love me
But I've met your kind before
So I took you twice on our first night
That doesn't mean I'm going to trust you too far
Love your blue eyes
When you cry
Love your blue eyes
You tried to make me crawl far too soon
But you should know me better by now
I didn't even feel like trying with you
I knew that I could break you somehow
Love your blue eyes
When you cry
Love your blue eyes
|
Gary Numan | Bombers | /g/gary+numan/bombers_20058489.html | Look up I hear the scream of sirens on the wall
I see a policeman crying in the backseat of a dying Ford
Hotel waiters leave the bedrooms of stars
Who are far too old
And no-one ever told me
That I could be so cold
Bombers fight at zero feet
Bombers fight at zero
I see an old man knocked to the ground
And beaten by the vicar's wife
No-one stops to help they're far too busy
Trying to save their own lives
A tiny girl screams for mother
And wanders out into the street
I saw her going down underneath
A thousand people's running feet
Bombers fight at zero feet
Bombers fight at zero
All the junkies pulling needles from their arms
Hope it lasts all night
And all the soldiers curse the day they joined the army
And prepare to fight
In silent bars, in silent rooms, in silent cars
You hide where you can
And me I know just where you are, you see
I'm a bomber man
Bombers fight at zero feet
Bombers fight at zero

Gary Numan | Conversation | /g/gary+numan/conversation_20058492.html | Oh it's so easy
When parts take over
My conversation
Is nothing more than lies
You're just the viewer
So cold and distant
I've no intentions
Of saying I love you
My conversation
We are not gods
We are not men
We are not making claims
We are only boys
You are not strong
You are not force
You are not regular
You are just wrong
There are no faces
This is my complex
You are my picture
I call you 'mirrors'
These are not my tears
Not my reflection
Am I a photo?
I can't remember
My conversation

Gary Numan | Dominion Day | /g/gary+numan/dominion+day_20058332.html | In my darkness
I hear Jesus crying
In my darkness
I see children savage and blind
In my darkness
I see dead men kneel before the cross
In my darkness
I hear the voice of evil
Disciples, dark angels
This is dominion day
'My demons, come to me
This is dominion day'
In his darkness
I can feel the storm come
In his darkness
Holy water burns my soul
In his darkness
A grave waits for you at heaven's gate
In his darkness
I hear screams that hide the voice of God
'Come children of Eden
Pray to me on dominion day'
'Pray for your salvation
Sanctuary on dominion day'
My soul save me
In his mercy
He will bring the disease
In his mercy
He will burn the oceans
In his mercy
He will tear the sky down
In his mercy
He will make pain eternal
'Your nightmare is breathing
This is dominion day'
Welcome to your saviour
This is dominion day
'This is my new kingdom
This is dominion day'
'Creation bleeds for me
This is dominion day'

Gary Numan | Down In The Park | /g/gary+numan/down+in+the+park_20058460.html | 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 it looked 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
|
Gary Numan | Dream Killer | /g/gary+numan/dream+killer_20058400.html | So I've seen my future
And I've seen dream killers
And I've seen you everytime.
So I've heard opinions
And I've heard dark rumours
And I've heard you everytime.
You hurt my feelings
You hurt my family
You hurt my reasons to try
I can't forgive you
I will remember
I'll pay you back one cold day.
So I've seen my weakness
And I've seen my heart break
And I've seen you everytime.
So I've heard promises
And I've heard every lie
And I've heard you everytime.
You lied to father
You lied to mother
You lied to brother and me
I used to dream, now
I forget how to
So should I learn how to lie?
You take my picture
You take my ghosts and laugh
You take my reason
You take my soul away.
You take my heartbeat
You take my innocence
You take my dreams and
You'll take my life away.
So now I'm old news
And you would change me
But I'm so tired of this
There is no comfort
In fame when it dies
And I'm so tired of it.

Gary Numan | Emotion | /g/gary+numan/emotion_10127645.html | Look up
Look down
I've seen it all before
I need emotion
Look left
Look right
I've tried it all before
I need emotion
Say nothing
It's over
I sold my soul
Forever
She's tempting
Sex tension
It could be the wrong move
One question
One answer
I don't need
Exposure
I don't know
The slogan
New fashion kills me
Fashion
Tear it up
It don't mean a thing so
Fashion
Tear it up good
Touch me
Picture this
It don't mean a thing so
Touch me
Life is cruel
How did this ever get serious?
One night
One touch
I've used them all before
I need emotion
One lie
Too much
I've heard it all before
I need emotion
I'll show you
Religion
Some people
Disgust me
Listen to
Opinion
I'm in a glass house
'I've been sick'
She whispers
Abandon
Nostalgia
Remember
My picture
I only work here
I need emotion

Gary Numan | Friends | /g/gary+numan/friends_20058514.html | See the strange boy keeping to the shadows
He's a very good friend of mine
I've seen you running from the ladies
Don't tell me you're not that kind
I've got the time if you've got the money
Mister you'll be pleased you'll see
We'll meet by the tubeway as the screamer cries eleven
And you can have your way with me
You're gonna make me feel so cold
See my one love talking to the pretty boy
I never did like her taste
My skin is rubber on a skeletal body
I'm physically going to waste
Feel my eyes and the tongue of a killer
I'm a humanoid logic machine
Don't touch me with your painted little fingers
'Cause I know where they've been
You're not gonna put those scabs on me
I must hide from a thousand grinning faces
All sucking from my crazy mind
Take a ride out in my imagery of ages
And heaven knows what you will find
I've no time for the chitter-chatter ladies
I'm so busy trying to break this wall
Hear my words 'cause emotion now is leaving
You see I'm really not a human at all
And I don't think I want to stay

Gary Numan | Halo | /g/gary+numan/halo_20632045.html | Who hasn't made
A big mistake
Betrayed a love
Or turned to hate?
You think it's you
Who hasn't told
A small white lie
Or felt revenge
Was justified?
You think it's you
Who hasn't had
A secret need
A truth to hide
Desires to feed?
You think it's you
Who has the strength
To save us all
To make us clean
And break our fall?
You think It's You
Does God bleed on the word?
Does God bleed on your white halo?
I looked inside
A big mistake
I'd make it stop
But it's too late.
I Think It's You
I've never been
Afraid to face
A fear but there's
No darker place
I Think than You.
Something crawls
And something lies
Something breathes
And something dies.
I think it's you
Does God bleed on the word?
Does God bleed on your white halo?

Gary Numan | Hunger | /g/gary+numan/hunger_20058391.html | Tell you a story
'Bout a friend of mine
Woke up in this room
Looked like... black and white movies
No light
And someone strange in the bed
She said
"You could be here forever"
"Can you feel me?
I'm the new disease
I'm like a hunger
That you've never known"
"Do you want me?
I'll take everything
I'm like a hunger
Lying in your heart"
He made excuses
Tried to leave the room
She said
"I'm the disease and the cure
Skin mechanics
Couldn't help you here
The nature of need
Leaves you junk sick and lonely"
"Trick it up
Trick it up good"
She moved
Like a ghost to the door
She said
"This is a re-al love story"
I heard his voice
And walked in on it all
She said
"You could be here forever"

Gary Numan | I Am Render | /g/gary+numan/i+am+render_20058573.html | I'm up here
You're down there
Call me the baitman
I'm screaming for air
Colour me black
If you wish, but
I don't believe
I don't believe
My God
I don't crash
Te sky moves
I'll shape you dreams
That a lifetime can't lose
I won't talk
I won't sing
They call me render
The shaper of things
Oh God
I'm not down
I'm not ashamed
Call it the job
If you need something to blame
Young reckless sleepers
Still screaming for air
I don't care
I don't care
Dear God

Gary Numan | I, Assassin | /g/gary+numan/i+assassin_20058377.html | We are assassins
We are not evil
We act with reason and heart
Your heart
We are not vicious
Is that surprising?
We're so much larger than life
I, assassin, I am
I, assassin, I am
I just arrived
Something to fix
This new depression
We are not hunters
We are just patient
We'll wait a lifetime for you
Just you
I've never felt good
I've never felt bad
I've never felt much at all
I, assassin, I am
I, assassin, I am
There's nothing personal
Just read the papers
That's real
|
Gary Numan | I Die: You Die | /g/gary+numan/i+die+you+die_20058589.html | 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 for me
And I die : You die
Hear them laugh
And 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 tape fails?
They crawl out of their holes for me
And I die, you die
Hear them laugh
And 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 frightened by the telephone.

Gary Numan | I Dream Of Wires | /g/gary+numan/i+dream+of+wires_20058462.html | I am the final silence
The last electrician alive
And they called me the sparkle
I was the best, I worked them all
New ways, new ways
I dream of wires
We opened doors by thinking
We went to sleep by dialing 'o'
We drove to work by proxy
I plugged my wife in, just for show
New ways, new ways
I dream of wires
So I press 'c' for comfort
I dream of wires, the old days
|
Gary Numan | I Still Remember | /g/gary+numan/i+still+remember_20058479.html | 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
|
Gary Numan | Ice | /g/gary+numan/ice_20058542.html | I'm playing at ice
But I'm finding it hard
She didn't break the wall
She just caught me off guard
Can you see ice in my eyes
Can you see ice in my eyes
I'm just a little bit sorry
But I haven't decided why
Could it be my memory
Or did I ever really cry
Can you see ice in my eyes
Can you see ice in my eyes
Fill my head with your false feelings
I can't trust anything you say
Today I missed a special friend
That never really cared anyway
Can you see ice in my eyes
Can you see ice in my eyes
Can you see ice in my eyes
Can you see ice in my eyes
|
Gary Numan | I'm On Automatic | /g/gary+numan/im+on+automatic_20058541.html | This is metal rhythm
A new song on the Radio
Some new face
A picture on your wall
Talk to me
You say it's nothing personal
But somethings wrong
It's eating me alive
I can't fine the reason
So I can't find the cure
They say nothings's wrong forever
But that somethings wrong with me
Oh I've been down so far
I've never hurt like this
I'm On Automatic
I've heard it all before
Some new flavour
With nothing in the hear
This isn't music
This is survival
But I'm still here
Now isn't that strange
I can't find the reason
So I can't find the cure
They say nothing's wrong forever
But that somethings wrong with me
Oh I've been down so far
I've never hurt like this
They say nothing's wrong forever
But that somethings wrong with me
Oh I've been down so far
Nothing's ever hurt like this
|
Gary Numan | In A Dark Place | /g/gary+numan/in+a+dark+place_20632042.html | Something calls me
From a dark place
And so I pray every night
Something knows me
It whispers my name
And I'm losing my faith
I can feel it breathing
But it feels like something dead and cold
I can feel it waiting
But it waits for something in my soul
Sometimes I call out for you, and sometimes I'm afraid
So I beg God
For salvation, for an angel
Every night
And I ask God
Can He forgive me?
And I want to believe
I think I hear it laughing
But it sounds like my voice lost and old
I think it showed me Heaven
And now I know why I'm scared to die
Am I a fool in the dark, I don't know
Am I the ghost in my dreams, I don't know
Am I a shadow of life, I don't know
Am I afraid of the truth, I don't know
Sometimes I call out for you, and sometimes I'm afraid
So I ask for
One small mercy?
But it whispers 'Who are you?'
So I ask God
If He can save me?
He says 'It's all too dark'
|
Gary Numan | Innocence Bleeding | /g/gary+numan/innocence+bleeding_20058335.html | Do you believe in Heaven?
That man's soul is eternal?
Our prayers are always answered?
And miracles can happen?
Save me.
But don't you wonder?
The Holy Ghost and Jesus?
In paradise and angels?
That God is all forgiving?
Save me.
Reward the faithful?
He lies to you and deceives.
A dark salvation comes.
Innocence bleeding.
Too dark to see the pictures of Heaven
Too dark to find the Garden of Eden.
Blinded by faith and stories of wonder,
Devine mercy? Mercy lies bleeding.
Save me.

Gary Numan | Jo The Waiter | /g/gary+numan/jo+the+waiter_20058516.html | Jo the waiter worked for me
Serving wine in basement bars
Only mad men ever stay. 'got no time'
If your mindless please take mine
Jo the waiter held me close
Behind the door marked 'gentlemen'
Just for now that's all I need
Won't someone call me 'friend'
Long gone. I recall good times
I must confess I cried
We burned out and the line went dead
At six o'clock I felt so alone
I crawled inside. 'where else to go'?
Could be dead for all you know
Everyday I died for you
Valium boys with painted eyes
Young man need love special
I don't think I want it at all
Long gone. I recall good times
I must confess I cried
Me I retired to a back street flat
Picture 'eyes in a cold steel frame'
The freaks arrive.
Broken needles and blood
'What you on man to get those eyes'
It's very touching I'm so close to me
False smiles I've rehearsed for days
Come inside you won't know I'm wrong
Give me your heart I'm so quickly gone

Gary Numan | Like A Refugee | /g/gary+numan/like+a+refugee_10127981.html | Treated like a refugee
Never seems to be a place for me
In my mind there is a scene i see
My house is burning
No-one returning
To a land once free.
Dreaming like a deportee
Cast away upon the open sea
No hand of friendship for the likes of me.
I feel the thunder
I'm going under
And i can't get free.
If there is a heaven
I don't want to hang around this hell.
I could be an angel
Let god (slip? )out of heaven back to hell.
And i say
I wont cry, no more tears
I wont cry, no more tears
Carry me away from here
Cut the crying and the see-through tear
Make emotion dissappear
My life is changing
I'm re-arranging
Everything i feel.

Gary Numan | Love Is Like Clock Law | /g/gary+numan/love+is+like+clock+law_20058574.html | This heart is empty
I've barely hidden memories
I've found a picture that haunts me again
I've no sad expression
I've no tears in my eyes
But I am the clown who forgot how to laugh
I wonder, does she think of me?
I wonder, I wonder
I wonder, does she call my name?
I cried
Don't leave me here alone
I cried
Don't leave me, don't leave me
Love is like clock law
Tick tock my heartbeat
I was a passion that passed her spare time
This room is prison
Love doesn't come here
These quiet nights will slowly kill me
I wonder, does she think of me?
I wonder, I wonder
I wonder, does she call my name
I cried
Don't leave me here alone
I cried
Don't leave me here alone
I cried
Don't leave me, don't leave me
Don't leave me, don't leave me
I cried
Don't leave me, don't leave me here
I'm quite alone

Gary Numan | Love Isolation | /g/gary+numan/love+isolation_10127652.html | These are words
Just for you
Only words
But it's all I can do
Reasons fade
As reasons can do
All I want
Is to talk with you
You cried with me
Laughed at me
Talked to me
Sheltered me
Fought by me
Lied for me
You lived for me
So call me
And I'll run to you
Ask me
And I'd die for you
You were there
You were always there
Like a friend
Like a lifelong friend
And I love you
I broke your heart
And you stole mine
Memories lie
But they're all I can find
Call my name
Sing my song
Call for me
I've been waiting so long
Just call me
And I'll run to you
Ask me
And I'd die for you
You were there
You were always there
Like a friend
Like a lifelong friend
And I miss you

Gary Numan | Love Like A Ghost | /g/gary+numan/love+like+a+ghost_20058546.html | I've seen enough of life,
Enough to last a lifetime.
I've seen too many tears,
Far too many tears.
I don't know the answer,
I don't know the question.
So show me something good,
Something to believe in.
CHORUS:
Love like a ghost, in the dark.
Love like a ghost, in my heart.
So let's talk of love,
Maybe for the last time.
You will remember me,
I'm the one who died for you.
So she'll take everything,
Everything and nothing.
I can't do anything,
Anything at all.
(repeat chorus to fade)

Gary Numan | Love Needs No Disguise | /g/gary+numan/love+needs+no+disguise_20058547.html | She dances
He watches
She sighs
Remember
Love needs no disguise
In motion
That cannot deny
She's saying
Love needs no disguise
And if the park gates are closed
Remember we toured the skys
And if the 'friends' all go home
You know love needs no disguise
He dances
And we realised
Remember
Love needs no disguise
In simple embraces
They lie
In darkness
Love needs no disguise
And we can lock all the doors
Forget the reasons and fame
There's no deceiving inside
You know we'll all be the same
|
Gary Numan | M. E. | /g/gary+numan/m+e_20058495.html | And m.e. I eat dust
We're all so run down
I'd call it my death
But I'll only fade away
And I hate to fade alone
Now there's only m.e.
We were so sure
We were so wrong
But there's no one left to see
And there's no one left to die
There's only m.e.
Why shoud I care
Why should I try
Oh no, oh no
I turned off the pain
Like I turned off you all
Now there's only m.e.

Gary Numan | Machine And Soul | /g/gary+numan/machine+and+soul_10127635.html | She likes film
Pictures too
A friend of mine
Something new
She likes girls
Lives my dreams
Eats my face
She says 'Time to make me scream'
No crying
She don't like tears
My one chance
Is corruption
(So get up
So get up and dance)
She likes pain
'E please Bob'
Some heroes
But she don't like God
She likes rock
MTV
Sex machines
She says 'Time to make me bleed'
No romance
No surprise
My one chance
Is perversion
So this is
My secret
So this is
A new way to hide
So this is
My nightmare
And you're my
Solution
No memories
Nostalgia
My one chance
Is slow motion
So this is
The big lie
So this is
My reason to leave
So this is
My future
And you're my
Corruption
She likes speed
Low fast cars
Love and hate
Rock and roll stars
She likes cream
Long goodbyes
Someone to watch
And she says 'Time to make me cry'
I'm nervous
She scares me
My one chance
Is emotion
So this is
Religion
So this is
Something to believe
So this is
God's disease
So this is
A new kind of cure
So this is
A new world
And you're my
Machine and soul

Gary Numan | Magic | /g/gary+numan/magic_20058442.html | When I sleep
I slide into
Some heaven
But no one is there.
If I believed,
If I should wonder,
If I forgive
Then would you come for me?
When I sleep
I hear sad words
Songs of god
That show me the lie.
'I'll keep you safe,
I'll keep you warm and
I'll keep you here,
Alone forever.'
And I believe in faith and magic.
And I believe in love and wonder.
And I'll believe in you when you come for me.
And I'll believe in you when the world comes apart

Gary Numan | Me! I Disconnect From You | /g/gary+numan/me+i+disconnect+from+you_20058590.html | 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

Gary Numan | Mean Street | /g/gary+numan/mean+street_20058548.html | My friends have
Been demoted to
Stay
Second class
Someone tells me
Reliable
Big brother will
Never last
Seems like I
Outgrew my station
Sweet young boys turning green
This is for your information
Mean Street I'd love to see you cry
Mean Street I'd love to see you die
Mean Street I really don't know why
Mean Street you let me down
Look at him
Taking all our glory
Let's kick him out
'Who will say?'
'Don't look at me'
'He'll find out in a roundabout way'
We don't owe him anything
We don't need him anymore
Drop him cold now spread the lies
No-one even said goodbye

Gary Numan | Miracles | /g/gary+numan/miracles_20058480.html | I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in forgiving

I don't believe in long goodbyes
Never look back for me
It's over

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

Gary Numan | Moral | /g/gary+numan/moral_20058301.html | These new romantics are oh so boring
I could swear I've been there once or twice before
I should grow wings and just forget the club
You know the legends never wanted to be me
For too erratic to be OK so?
If you're concerned well I don't care
You play games, you play safe
Me I just sighed with relief
Matthew's mother. The change disturbs me
You've everybody's friend. Age, I suppose
Just like religion you're going nowhere
Like your so explicit clothes onto the floor
On those occasions when everything broke down
Including you and me
See the boy, see the girl
The exhibition is now over

Gary Numan | My Brother's Time | /g/gary+numan/my+brothers+time_20058302.html | Sometimes they try to forget and sometimes they do
Giving love for the financial gain
She's so good with excuses and incorrect reasons
I'm tired of trying to win and you're tired of me
She knows how to stand in the corner
And whisper the words that you need
She knows how to stand in the corner
And whisper the words with that cynical charm
We could dance
Now it's my brother's time
Here on the floor with these very loose young girls
Like someone in Japan who just lied
If the innocent are saved then what happens to her
What's done is done and everything's different somehow
I keep a book of reflections that sometimes appear in her eyes
I keep a book of reflections
And realise there's nothing much that I can do
We could dance
Now it's my brother's time

Gary Numan | My Love Is A Liquid | /g/gary+numan/my+love+is+a+liquid_20058518.html | Can you see her little eyes?
Can you see her little hands?
Don't you think she looks just like me?
Can you hear her little scream?
Can you hear her little cry?
Don't you think she sounds just like me?
[Chorus]
You have friends and we have reasons
I can't meet you face-to-face
There are no corners to hide in my room
No doors, no windows, no fireplace
My love is only for me
My love needs nobody else
Did you know that my love is a liquid?
I could talk to me for years
I can't speak to you at all
Did you know that friends come in boxes?
[Chorus]
Save your money buy a tube
Let your body flow inside
Watch it grow before your eyes
Watch it grow before your eyes
[Chorus]

Gary Numan | O.d. Receiver | /g/gary+numan/od+receiver_10127994.html | Heartbeat
I can't see you
Heartbeat
I can hear you
I feel you pumping just beyond my door
I know exactly
What you've crawled here for
Cringe down lower
You're all dressed in grey
Me, I'm still breathing
It's just not your day
I hear you whisper like an open grave
O.D. Receiver, I am all you crave
You're dying, crying, I can hear you fall
Your bony fingers scratching on my wall
O.D. Receiver
I hear you screaming, well at least you try
Me, I'm still smiling but I don't know why
I'd call a doctor if I had the time
But I'm so busy with this fix of mine
O.D. Receiver...

Gary Numan | Please Push No More | /g/gary+numan/please+push+no+more_20058465.html | Now I'm behind glass
I'll talk to you
The telephone lines blind
You have defaced my face
I bet you laughed at me
You bright young things
And now I need no-one
I miss you, so
Please push no more
Please push no more
Now it's all over for sure
I'll walk back home
We must all come down
We all grow old
We are close, we are hurt
So that was love
And love she kills me
It needs to, so
Please push no more
Please push no more
Please push no more
Please push no more

Gary Numan | Prophecy | /g/gary+numan/prophecy_20058336.html | We are deceived
Valhalla is falling
We are betrayed
We are lost and forsaken.
He's sold the world
Sold us all to the hunger
The body of Christ
Is as black as his soul.
The word of the Lord
Is the lie of your father
This mortal sin
Is a voice of shame.
Look at the storm
Like a dying apostle
Cruel and divine
Like the ghost of man.
And now you realise
I am the truth.
Worship the dead
The damned and misled
Tortured and bled
Like the voices of reason.
Sacred and pure
Sanctified obsession
Holy and cured
Like a doorway to heaven.
Sisterhood cried
Innocence lied
Purity died
With the angels of passion.
Blessed are they
Who pay homage to rumour
I've seen the light
Shine on the grave of Man.
And now you realise
I am the truth.
And I believed.
Amen.

Gary Numan | Radio Heart | /g/gary+numan/radio+heart_20058553.html | I lose myself in the night
Walking the streets in the rain.
I turn away from the light
To find the shadows again.
I see her face in the window
I feel the touch of her hand
I hear her voice say "I need you"
I guess I can't understand
Radio Heart
Play a sad song for me
One fom the heart
So she'll come back for me
Radio Heart
Send her my love for me
I hear a sound in the night
Could be the turn of a key
And when I switch on the light
It's you I'm hoping to see
Imagination
You play a cruel cool game
Imagination
You leave me calling her name
Radio Heart
Play a sad song for me
One from the heart
So she'll come back for me
The morning after
I find no inspiration
No love no laughter
Just my imagination

Gary Numan | Stormtrooper In Drag | /g/gary+numan/stormtrooper+in+drag_20058307.html | So here am I
Quite by chance near the phone
I could call and make you crawl into bed
Questions always questions
I'll just speak in slow motion
About obsessions with boys on the floor
Take that smile off your face
Wipe that tear from your eye
Don't say sorry for me
Take that smile off your face
Wipe that tear from your eye
Don't say sorry for me
Now look at me
Like a stormtrooper in drag
I'll bet you feel exactly like I do
It's so disgusting
I'm so tired of
Rhythm and needles in arms
I don't want your point of view
Nothing to do
Nothing to steal
And there's nothing to say
Nothing to do
Nothing to steal
And there's nothing to say
Oh, don't cry
Love it, love it
I need to
Stop it

I don't know
The dream was everything
I don't know
I don't know
If it's all falling down.
I lose connection as they let me down
What you gonna think?
What you gonna do?
What you gonna say?
Are you gonna scream 'Oh no'?
What you gonna think?
What you gonna do?
What you gonna say?
I just don't like this thing, at all.
(Strange charm)
Let the boys out
Let the boys out
And let the fun begin
Let the boys out
Let the boys out
And let the night come in.
We don't like it
We don't like it
We're from the factory and we've come to play.
Let the boys out.
You push too hard
You push too hard
Come closer and talk to me
You push too hard
You push too hard
D'you get the picture now?
You won't like it
You won't like it
We get impatient as the time runs out.
Let the boys out.

Gary Numan | The Aircrash Bureau | /g/gary+numan/the+aircrash+bureau_20058470.html | Hello, I'm the aircrash bureau
I bet you're so surprised to see me
I could specialize in rumours
I'll send shivers up your spine
Pilot, back, I need my squadron
I was flying before d-day
Now I'm warning you of falling
I'll tell you when you're going down
Sometimes I get these questions
It reminds me of the skin game
We used to stand around on corners
Saying 'well here we are again'
So now she motions closer
Now that's what I call romance
Someone's calling me but vaguely
You need the feeling not the man

Gary Numan | The Fall | /g/gary+numan/the+fall_20982013.html | Put your hate in a box
See how it bleeds for you
I've watched you
Take your life and tear it apart
Put your pain in a box
I'll send it back to you
What have you become?
A shadow of a man
Do you fall like rain on the crying?
Cold and alone like the bitter and dying
Do you fall like dust on a ruin?
Empty and dead like the life you are losing
Put your lies in a box
How have they worked for you?
Did they win you back
The things that you lost?
Put your shame in a box
How could you be so wrong?
You sit there broken
And the world moves on
Do you fall like rain on the crying?
Cold and alone like the bitter and dying
Do you fall like dust on a ruin?
Empty and dead like the life you are losing
How does it feel?
I'll spare a little thought for "The Crow"
How does it feel?
Living in the black of your soul
How does it feel?
Like a beggar out caught in the cold
How does it feel?
With nothing but the truth left untold
Do you fall like tears on an ocean?
Drowning in rage like a poisoned emotion
Do you fall like a fading desire?
Lost and unloved a forgotten "messiah"
Do you fall like rain on the crying?
Cold and alone like the bitter and dying
Do you fall like dust on a ruin?
Empty and dead like the life you are losing

Gary Numan | The God Film | /g/gary+numan/the+god+film_20058289.html | She's like death on two legs
She is raw pink shame
Please stop the God film
It's all wrong
But I'm not to blame
These boys of image
Carry banners
Believe in slogans
Kill policeman
Say it's 'freedom'
Say it's 'goodness'
Say it's 'peaceful'
I'm lonely
I'm feeling down (everyone I know has been and gone)
It's such a sick picture
She says 'i cure everyone'
I'm alone in a corner
I won't ever forgive
I must be broken
I don't know
Who on earth can I blame?

Gary Numan | Torn | /g/gary+numan/torn_20326889.html | Silently I wait alone for you
I've got to put my fear back in its box
Silently I feel you breathe on me
And I hear mercy sigh and leave the room
You could hurt me
Take my breath away.
Would you like that?
You could rip me
Leave me torn and cold.
Would you like that?
One More Sin. Make me unforgiven
Silently, I turn and play begins
I watch you smile
Just like a dead things smiles
Silently I lose and darkness comes
I hear you laugh as God abandons me
You could cut me
Let me die for you.
Would you like that?
All I feel. Makes me unforgiven

Gary Valenciano | Could You Be Messiah | /g/gary+valenciano/could+you+be+messiah_20168668.html | [Verse 1]
Could You be healer
To a heart that's been wounded
In a battle that's never seen
[Verse 2]
Could You be teacher
To a mind of confusion
Tell me what does this all mean
[Verse 3]
Are You deliverer
Of an imprisoned feeling in chains
Can You set my spirit free
And just one more question
Allow me this question
Could You be Messiah to me (2x)
[Verse 4]
Could You be father
To a soul that's been abandoned
By a world too busy to hear
[Verse 5]
Could You be friend
To a helpless survivor
Can You take away my fears
[Verse 6]
I heard them all sharing
This new found conviction in them
Are You all that they make You to be
And just one more question
Allow me this question
Could You be Messiah to me
Please be Messiah to me
Now I've been looking for someone like You
And I'm so tired, I'm tired
I've read every book and I've sang every song
My mind maybe right but my heart feels so wrong
Tell me how much further can my life go along
Which way do the roads lead where do I belong...
Are You forgiver
Of my most unknown secrets
Provider of all that I need
Could You be brother
The one who knows better
Would You now stand in the lead
When all this is over all the thunder and lightning
In the daylight just what will I see
The answers to my questions to all of my questions
Could You be Messiah to me (2x)
Could You be Messiah
Please be Messiah to me...

Gary Valenciano | Each Passing Night | /g/gary+valenciano/each+passing+night_20166860.html | Each passing night
I try and close my eyes
But thoughts of you
They wake me up
And tear me inside out
Each passing night
I ask myself who's right
And try to find the reasons why
It had to end that night
Didn't we share each other's dreams
We held each other tight
Ang tears fell fromm my eyes
As you walked and left me here
Like the wind you passed me by
I try but I can't see
If it's something that I said
Baby please won't you tell me now
'Cause it gets harder each passing night
I often pray
That you'd come back and stay
We've had too much together
To ever live a part
I'll wait and see
'Cause I know and I believe
Someday you'll come to realize
What you and I can be
Then we'll share each other's dreams
We'll held each other tight
Kiss the tears that burn my eyes
'Cause you walked and left me here
Like the wind you passed me by
I try but I can't see
If it's something that I said
Baby, please won't you tell me now
'Cause it gets harder each passing night
I never meant to hurt your heart this way
Sooner or later
There'd be someone else who'd stay
Didn't we share each other's dreams
(share each other's dreams)
You tear me inside out
(and tears fell from my eyes)
Someday you'd realize
(as you walked and left me here)
Like the wind you passed me by

Kiss the tears that burn my eyes

Gary Valenciano | Fool Till The End | /g/gary+valenciano/fool+till+the+end_20650937.html | Before you go away
To the one you do belong
So glad we met and you stayed
Though it wasn't very long
Was it only just a dream
Its over now it seems
If there were no goodbyes
Would you stay that you still care
I won't believe my eyes
When I see you won't be there
'Cause this love so hard to find
Now you're leavin' me behind
Oh please
Chorus:
Show me and tell me
How do you put this love aside
(And) Put it away for another time
With no guarantee that you'll be mine
A fool I am it seems
'Cause I'll been lovin' you in my dreams
Until I wake up and I find out
That time ain't our friend
I'll just stay a fool till the end
(Till the end, I'll be a fool)
(Till I find its me and you)
If it only was game
Why'd you have to fool my heart
Oh girl ain't it a shame
That we promised from the start
That our love was here to stay
For each and everyday
If I had only known
And if I didn't have to care
Then being all alone
It wouln't be so hard to bear
This love so hard to find
That we're leavin' here behind
Oh please
Repeat chorus
I maybe over acting
I know I must stay strong
But you pulled the string too hard
And now we're going on our own
Repeat chorus
Till the end
You know I just stay a fool

Gary Valenciano | Gary Valenciano - Letting Go | /g/gary+valenciano/gary+valenciano+letting+go_20632029.html | I used to feel the emptiness inside me
I was not supposed to feel that way
I had everything I needed
But nothing ever made me
What I longed to be
The wealth, the name
The lights, the fame
Were everything to me
And then one night
Out of the blue
I heard His name (Jesus)
And so I took that step of faith
And walked into His domain
I believe that's what He wants
Every heart to do
When hard may seem the task
One step is all He asks of you
Letting go to know the truth
Is not so hard to do
It's the heart that's got the will
To open up for Him to fill
And trusting and believing Him
Is all we've got to do
It's just the heart that's got to move
For Him to show His love that's been there
Even when we never cared
Take hold of His hand
Let go and you'll understand
Why be afraid
For God knows what you're feeling
But even He can't do a thing
If He sees the heart's not willing
And so we ask what's going on
We want what's right and still do wrong
When hard may seem the task
One step is all He asks of you
I guess by now you'd realize
You can't be on your own
And all your cares
And all your burdens
Should be cast upon His throne
Letting go, just let go, letting go
Let go and you'll understand
Just let go and you'll understand

And wave them from side to side
And if you confess that Jesus Christ is Lord
Somebody scream "alright"
Let me see, let me see
Nothing can compare to his grace
And his glory, end of story
He's enough for me and should be enough for you
So act like you know 'coz if you don't here's a clue
From the beginning to the middle til the end
He'll always be your friend
Every time you take him into battle with you, you win
That's on the real knock, brother, there is no other
So never put your faith in another
Yeah you know that Jesus is enough
Yeah you know that Jesus is enough
So many people in the world try to lie and deceive us
You know full well that they need Jesus
You deadly mistaken if you waste your time
And follow Satan
He don't love you, he's just fakin'
Satan's always tryin' to make us be untrue
So listen to me now it's what you gotta do
Put on your full armor
Don't let him be a charmer
Say, "Satan, get behind me!" he can never harm me
Yeah you know that Jesus is enough
Yeah you know that Jesus is enough
So what you out there tryin' to discover
Tell me can you tell me can you find something better
From the beginning to the middle to the end
He'll always be your friend
Everytime you take him into battle with you, you win
That's on the real knock, brother, there is no other
So never put your faith in another
When times get rough you just gotta hang tough
I'm here to let you know Jesus Christ is enough
When times get rough you just gotta hang tough
Take my advice, Jesus Christ is enough
Yeah you know that Jesus is enough

Gary Valenciano | High School Life | /g/gary+valenciano/high+school+life_20746115.html | High school life, on my high school life
Ev'ry memory, ray ganda
High school days, oh my high school days
Are exciting, kay saya
There are times, may problema ka
Kung ang homework, left undone
Pray ka lang, 'wag tawagin ka
Upang di pagtawanan
High school love my one high school love
Not infatuation or crush
Tunay 'to s'ya ang buhay ko
Di n'yo lang slam ako'y songbag-blush
Bakit nga ba ang first love ko
Ay di serious, so it seems
Kung alam lang ng first love ko
He is always in my dreams
Ang saya ng high school
Same in yours and my school
Di na mapapantayan
T'yak ganyan ang buhay na sad yang makulay
Alaala kaylan man
High school life, on my high school life
Ev'ry memory, kay ganda
High school days, oh my high school days
Are exciting, kay saya
High school life, ba't ang high school life
Ay walang kasing saya?
Bakit kung Graduation na'y
Luluha kang talaga?
High school life, ba't ang high school life
Ay walang kasing saya?

Gary Valenciano | How Did You Know | /g/gary+valenciano/how+did+you+know_20581936.html | I remember so well
The day that you came
Into my life
You asked for my name
You have the most beautiful smile
My life started to change
I wake up each day feeling all right
With you right by my side
Makes me feel things
Will work out just fine
How did you know
I needed someone like you in my life
That there was an empty space in my heart
You came at the right time in my life
I never forget how you brought the sun to shine in my life
And took all the worries and fears that I had
I guess what I'm really trying to say
It's not everyday that someone like you comes my way
No words can express how much I love you
How did you know
I needed someone like you in my life
That there was an empty space in my heart
You came at the right time in my life
I never forget how you brought the sun to shine in my life
And took all the worries and fears that I had
I guess what I'm really trying to say
It's not everyday that someone like you comes my way
No words can express how much I love you

Gary Valenciano | I Will Be Here | /g/gary+valenciano/i+will+be+here_20343669.html | Tomorrow mornin' if you wake up
And the sun does not appear
I...I will be here
If in the dark we lose sight of love
Hold my hand and have no fear
'Cause I...I will be here
I will be here
When you feel like bein' quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to cryin'
Through the winnin' and losin' and tryin'
We'll be together
'Cause I will be here
Tomorrow mornin' if you wake up
And the future is unclear
I...I'll be here
Just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
I...I will be here
I will be here
You can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you
And I will be here
To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here
I will be true
To the promise I have made
To you and to the
One who gave you to me
I...I will be here
And just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
'Cause I...
I will be here....
We'll be together, forever
'Cause I will be here

Ngayong wala ka na

Ikaw lamang ang minahal

Hawakan niya ang puso mo 'gang
Sa 'yong pagbalik

Gary Valenciano | In Another Lifetime | /g/gary+valenciano/in+another+lifetime_20581937.html | I could hold on for a hundred years
When all else is gone
I would still be here
In a memory of things yet unseen
I?d remember all that we?ve never been
And I cannot wait to see
What life has in store for me
[chorus]
In another lifetime
It would be forever
In another world
Where you and I
Could be together
In another set of chances
I?d take the one?s I?d missed
And make you mine
If only for a time
My life would matter
In another life
And I?d stay as strong and I?d stay as true
And you?d have forever now to think it through
Coz I believe what wasn?t meant to be
Wasn?t meant for now and
Someday you?ll see
In a place and time we never know
I?d be standing there waiting for you
[Repeat Chorus]

You would be mine
But until that time is now
I?d be holding on somehow

I?ll be holding onto forever

Tumanda, bumaha, iwan ka man ng iyong asawa
Hindi ka nag-iisa

Malayo man ang pangarap
Maaabot mo rin
Basta't ika'y magsikap
Malayo ang mararating

Taga-ibang bansang sundalo
Bumaha ang salapi kasama
Ang lahat ng uri ng bisyo

Sa pagsabog ng bulkan, nasalanta
Nasaan ka na
Kamusta ka Pampanga
Kamusta ka Pampanga
Kamusta ka ngayon, bayan ko
May pag-asa ba
Kamusta ka Pampanga
Tinabunan ka ng putik at bato
Subali't di ka nagpatalo
Bawat kahirapa'y may dalang lakas
Ito'y nakita ko sa iyo
Bagong buhay ay umuusbong muli
Magmula sa matibay na pananalangi't pagpupunyagi

May pag-asa na
Kamusta ka Pampanga

And dating di makatayo'y naglalakad muli

To make you feel right
Never hesitate
To give some room for me
Show me the way
Into your heart tonight
And I'll be there for you
My love...girl, anytime
So many times it seems
Through thick and thin we've been
Bumpin' around, messin' ground
Almost have called it quits
But love is always on top of it all
Thicker and stronger we go
'Coz we made a vow to show us
How we're for one another
You know how much
I care for all the things you are
I'm so devoted to you
Show me the way
To make you feel right
Never hesitate
To give some room for me
Show me the way
Into your heart tonight
And I'll be there for you
My love...girl, anytime
If you'll just close your eyes
And maybe realize
We're runnin' around, losin' ground
Leaving your cares behind
But life's full of uncertainties
Stress in big quantities
We make mistakes, losin' our faith
But babe it's never too late
If we just focus to live and love
We will conquer the pain
And have everything to gain
Show me the way
To make you feel right
Never hesitate
To give some room for me

Into your heart tonight
And I'll be there for you

Gary Valenciano | Take Me Out Of The Dark | /g/gary+valenciano/take+me+out+of+the+dark_20540258.html | Just what is it in me?
Sometimes I just don't know
What keeps me in Your love,
Why you never let me go
And though you're in me now,
I fall and hurt you still
My Lord, please show me how
To know just how you feel
You have forgiven me
Too many times it seems
I feel I'm not what you might call
A worthy Christian after all
And though I love You so
Temptation finds it's way to me
Teach me to trust in You
With all my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
I just forget
You won't give me what I can't bear
Take me out of the dark, my Lord
I don't wanna be there
You've never left my side
You gave Your hand to me to hold
Oh Jesus, I'm no longer in the cold
And yet, I leave You there
When I feel satisfied
I'd like to thank You every day
Not only when I feel that way
I've never known a Man
Who'd give His life for sinners like me
And yet, because He loves us so
He's promised us eternity
And we can have that promise
And be His if we have faith
And just believe
Teach us to trust in you
With all my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
We just forget
You won't give us what we can't bear
Take us out of the dark, My Lord
'Cause we don't want to be alone
Take me out of the dark, My Lord
We don't wanna be there, My Lord
Trust in You with all my heart
Lean not on my own understanding
I just forget
You won't give me what I can't bear
Take me out of the dark, My Lord
Cause we don't want to be alone
Take me out of the dark, My Lord
I don't want to be there

Genesis | Alone Tonight | /g/genesis/alone+tonight_20058760.html | There's nothing here that I can understand
And no one cares I'm a lonely man
I touch your face and I don't know why
I call your name but you're going by
Now I'm alone again
I have no name for each and every day
Until the year is done and fades away
There's a time in between the two
The old years gone but it's not the new
And I
I know that I'll be all
Alone again, alone again tonight, oh I'm
Alone again, alone again tonight, oh I'm
Alone again, it seems to me that every time I try to change
Say that you'll, say that you'll
Help me reach the other side
When the morning comes, the sun is out
And warms me up again
What a funny world it is for me
And all I'll ever be
It's not enough, it's not enough
This feeling I'm feeling inside
Oh I know it, I know tonight that I'll be
On my own again, alone again tonight
Oh I'm alone again, alone again tonight Oh I'm alone again, it
seems to me that every time I try to change
Say that you'll, say that you'll
Help me reach the other side
Help me please 'cause I know I'm gonna be
On my own again, alone again tonight
Oh I'm alone again, alone again tonight Oh I'm alone again, it

Say that you'll, say that you'll
Help me reach the other side

You decorate the garage wall,
Hang in people's halls,
Live in secret drawers,
If you could look around you,
Wonder what you'd see.
Fiction.
That's all you really are I know,
Editorial dreams.
They can't make you real,
Tell me where you came from,
And where you're going to.
I won't ever, no I'll never get to know her,
Or be the cause of anything she does.
I won't ever, no I'll never get to hold her.
Do you think this aching could be love?
Oh you know,
You've figured in some fantasies.
You would not believe,
What you've had to do,
Life goes on around you all because of you.
I won't ever, no I'll never get to know her,
Or be the cause of anything she does.
I won't ever, no I'll never get to hold her.
Do you think this aching could be love?
You know,
That in twenty years or more,
You still look the same
As you do today.
You'll still be a young girl,
When I'm old and grey.
I won't ever, no I'll never get to know her,
Or be the cause of anything she does.
I won't ever, no I'll never get to hold her.

Shedding ever changing colours, in the darkness of the fading night,
Like the river joins the ocean, as the germ in a seed grows
We have finally been freed to get back home.
There's an angel standing in the sun, and he's crying with a loud voice,
"This is the supper of the mighty one",
Lord of Lords,
King of Kings,
Has returned to lead his children home,
To take them to the new Jerusalem.

People never criticise the way I play
Show me the way to go, I need to make a breakthrough
I dont think that I can wait another day
Its putting years on me, Im a young man going grey

This simple melody is all I have
I make my living that way
I make good friends that way
Ooh, I really can make no sense of it, as hard as I try
Is it something I do wrong please wont you tell me why
People all seem to like it and no one knows about it more than i
I met a man today who walked in my direction
Stopped took off his hat and lit a cigarette
He listened carefully to what I had been playing
He threw a coin into my hat and walked away
Always play just what they want me to
Everybody wants the same song
If only I could do it in my own way
I feel such emotion, emotion, ooh, emotion, emotion, ooh
Say gimme a song I know, something I can relate to
And no one wants to criticise the way I play
I should just say no and play them what I want to
Cos I dont think that I can wait another day
Its putting years on me, Im a young man going grey
I dont believe that I can wait another day
This simple melody is all I have
I make my living that way
I make good friends that way
They feel my emotion, emotion, ooh, ooh
Emotion, emotion, ooh

Genesis | Deep In The Motherlode | /g/genesis/deep+in+the+motherlode_20058722.html | Get out of the way fat man. You got something to do
Go fill up your hands till they're shining up at you.
You gotta get out while there's gold in the air
It's falling like water, coming down from the hills.
Go West young man
Earn a dollar a day just like your family said.
You're rolling your days right on into the night
The head of the line's going way out of sight.
Go West young man like your family said
All along the wagons
All along the dusty trail.
Seventeen years not over a day
Like children in the wild.
Your mother's milk still wet on your face
And no one to pray for your safe journey home.
Out beyond the desert
Across the mountains by the fall.
Servants who leave their masters house
Are walking all the way.
The golden fields that beckoned you
Are darkened by the years.
Go West Young Man
If you knew then what you know today
You'd be back where you started a happier man
And leave all the glory to those who have remained.
So Go West Young Man
Go West Young Man, like your family said.

Genesis | Dodo | /g/genesis/dodo_20058741.html | Too big to fly, dodo ugly so dodo must die,
Doggo with fear on its side, can't change, can't change the tide.
Dog baiter, agitator, keeps asking questions, says he wants to know why.
Ain't no reason that money can't buy.
Mink he pretty so mink he must die, must die, must die.
Sun he giving life in his light,
Part of the system,
Friend to man, friend to the trees,
No friend to the snowman.
Where does he go, what does he do?
Does he meet with the mole, the stream, the cloud
And end up at the bottom of the sea.
Fish he got a hook in his throat,
Fish he got problems
Where does he go, what does he do?
Does he hope he's too small, to poor a haul,
Who'll end up being thrown back in the sea.
I'm back in the sea.
Caretaker, horror movie,
Only one eye, only needs one boot,
Sweet lady, she knows she looks good
Vacuum coming for the bright and the brute.
Big noise, black smoke
So pig-headed couldn't see the joke.
But it ain't funny
Ask the fly on the wall
It's only living
It don't matter at all, at all, at all.
Pimp, he make you drool and grunt,
He got an answer.
One he got a dream of love,
Deep as the ocean.
Where does he go?
What does he do?
Will the siren team with Davy Jones,
And trap him at the bottom of the sea?
I'm back in the sea.
I'm back in the sea.
I'm back in the sea.

Rain keeps running down the window pane
Time keeps running out for me
Can't you see what you are doing to me
Can't you see what you have done
As I try to pass another long and sleepless night
As a hundred crazy voices call my name
As I try to pass them by
I almost can believe that she is here
Here in the glow of the night
Do you know what you have done
Do you know what you've begun
Do you see we shall never be together again
All of my life
All the lonely people, empty rooms
And all the pointless violence, silent tombs
Could it be that we shall be together again
Sheets of double glazing
Help to keep outside the night
Only foreign city sirens can cut through
Nylon sheets and blankets
Help to minimize the cold
But they can't keep out the chilling sounds
Will the nightmare soon give way to dreaming
That she is here with me
Here in the glow of the night
Do you know what you have done
Do you know what you've begun
Do you see we shall never be together again
All of my life
All the lonely people, empty rooms
And all the pointless violence, silent tombs
Could it be that we shall be together again

Genesis | Dusk | /g/genesis/dusk_20058901.html | See my hand is moving
Touching all that's real
And once it stroke the love's body
Now it claws the past
The scent of a flower,
The colors of the morning,
Friends to believe in,
Tears soon forgotten,
See how the rain drives away, another day
If a leaf has fallen
Does the tree lie broken?
And if we draw some water
Does the well run dry?
The sigh of a mother,
The screaming of lovers,
Like two angry tigers,
They tear at each other
See how for him lifetime's fears disappear
Once a Jesus suffered,
Heaven could not see him.
And now my ship is sinking,
The captain stands alone.
A pawn on the chessboard,
A false move by God will now destroy me,
But wait, on the horizon,
A new dawn seems to be rising,
Never to recall this passerby, born to die.

Genesis | Heathaze | /g/genesis/heathaze_20058767.html | No cloud, a sleepy calm
Sun baked earth that's cooled by gentle breeze
And trees with rustling leaves
Only endless days without a care
Nothing must be done
Silent as a day can be
Far off sounds of others on their chosen run
As they do all those things they feel give life some meaning
Even if they're dull
Time to stop this dreaming, must rejoin the real world
As revealed by orange lights and a smoky atmosphere
The trees and I are shaken by the same winds but whereas
The trees will lose their withered leaves
I just can't seem to let them loose
And they can't refresh me those hot winds of the south
Feel like an alien, a stranger in an alien place
Now the light id fading fast
Chances slip away, a time will come to pass
When there'll be none
Then addicted to a perfumed poison
Betrayed by its aftertaste
We shall lose the wonder and find nothing in return
Many are the substitutes but they're powerless an their own
Beware the fisherman who's casting out his line
Into a dried up river bed
But don't try to tell him 'cause he won't believe you
Throw some bread to the ducks instead, it's easier that way
Feel like an alien, a stranger in an alien place

Genesis | If That's What You Need | /g/genesis/if+thats+what+you+need_20058752.html | Talking makes us human that's what I was told
So why do I find it so difficult to let my feelings unfold
Had I the courage to tell you I'd promise you this
If that's what you need
I'll be the river I'll be the mountain always beside you
If that's what you need
I will be stronger I will be braver than ever before
When you came along and turned it all around
I promised myself I wouldn't tell you
Until we stood on solid ground
Holding the candle between us I'll tell you this
If that's what you need
I'll be the river I'll be the mountain always beside you
If that's what you need
I will be stronger I will be braver than ever before
And if there's any kind of danger
I hear you calling out my name
You can follow in my footsteps
And I will lead you safely back again
I never understood you however hard I tried
But it took me a while until I realized
That all the problems were mine
Holding you nearer to me to tell you this
If that's what you need
I'll be the river I'll be the mountain always beside you
If that's what you need
I will be stronger I will be braver than ever before
And when things go wrong
I'll be your conscience there to remind you all of your life
When you go wrong
I'll be the reason you'll be protected all of your days

Genesis | Illegal Alien | /g/genesis/illegal+alien_20058797.html | Got out of bed, wasn't feeling too good
With my wallet and my passport, a new pair of shoes
The sun is shining so I head for the park,
With a bottle of Tequila, and a new pack of cigarettes
I got a cousin and she got a friend,
Who thought that her aunt knew a man who could help
At his apartment I knocked on the door,
He wouldn't come out until he got paid.
Now don't tell anybody what I wanna do
If they find out you know that they'll never let me through.
It's no fun being an illegal alien
It's no fun being an illegal alien
Down at the office had to fill out the forms
A pink one, a red one, the colours you choose,
Up to the counter to see what they think
They said 'It doesn't count man, it ain't written in ink'.
Don't trust anybody least not around here, cause
It's not fun being an illegal alien,
It's not fun being an illegal alien,
It's not fun being an illegal alien,
It's not fun being an illegal alien,
An illegal alien, O.K.
Consideration for your fellow man
Wouldn't hurt anybody, sure fits in with my plan
Over the border, there lies the promised land
So don't tell anybody what I wanna do
If they find out you know that they'll never let me through.
It's no fun being an illegal alien,
It's no fun being an illegal alien,
It's no fun being an illegal alien,
It's no fun being an illegal alien.

Genesis | Image Blown Out | /g/genesis/image+blown+out_10128647.html | People moving about the town upside down, you know why
Little bits of coloured glass in the sky
Children pushing mummy down to the park, in a pram
Look out the pavement's changing to jam
See them running
Now where are they going to
To follow them, leads you nowhere
Shout to them quickly but no one can hear you
All they can do is to stare
Your bowler hats are turning green
Your city suits are coloured cream
You, you who changed my life
You made it misery, sadness reins alone
Wonder why you do this, to me
When I've tried so hard for you
People talking to the man who's digging a hole, in his mind
He's no need to worry, he's deaf and blind
See the dustman doing his round in a rolls made of glass
He's gained everything because he's got class
Friends are leaving me when I did everything
Just as they used to behave
Trying to copy them, losing my real self
Floating away in a cloud
Your minds have blown you out of step
The rules you taught you never kept
You, you who changed my life
You made it misery, sadness reins alone
Wonder why you do this, to me
When I've tried so hard for you

Genesis | In Hiding | /g/genesis/in+hiding_20058783.html | Pick me up, put me down
Push me in, turn me round
Switch me on, let me go
I have a mind of my own
In hiding
Far from the city of night
And the factories of truth
I stand upon the mountain
A million miles from my home
And the faces of fear
I have freedom to think
In hiding
I may take off my clothes
That I wear on my face
I float upon a river
A million miles from the plains
That are piercing the clouds
I am lost in the beauty
In hiding
Pick me up, put me down
Push me in, turn me round
Switch me on, let me go
I have a mind of my own
I wish you were here
In hiding
I lie silent at last
I am free from my past
I walk among the tall trees
This is beauty I know
I am in love with it all
I have freedom to love
In hiding
Pick me up, put me down
Push me in, turn me round
Switch me on, let me go
I have a mind of my own

Genesis | In Limbo | /g/genesis/in+limbo_20058784.html | Please take me away
Far from this place
Leaving me here
Take me away
To the furthest star in the sky
Take me away
To the deepest cave of the night
Take me away
Voices of love, here am I
In the sad sad world of fear
Take me away
From the power of my ambition
And I'll be happy
I, I've conquered time
Where will I go?
Am I still mine?
Take me away
To the furthest star in the sky
Take me away
To the deepest cave of the night
Take me away
Voices of love, here am I
In the sad sad world of fear
Take me away
From the power of my ambition
And I'll be happy
Peace, floating in limbo
Limbo, leading me nowhere
Peace, now without motion
I cry, when will I die?
God, where is my soul now?
My world, please set me free

Pushing together
Scattering mountains all around you

And a light from a curious sky
It has begun
You're in the hands of destiny
Thrashing with violence
Hurling its lava up and down
Furnace of frenzy
Burning with power uncontrolled
That is the sound of a new born world
And the light from a curious sky
It has begun
You're in the hands of destiny
Is that the chariot with stallions gold
Is that a prince of heaven on the ground
Is that the roar of a thunderflash
This is my world and it's waiting to be crowned
Father, son, looks down with happiness, life is on its way

Genesis | In The Rapids | /g/genesis/in+the+rapids_20058854.html | Moving down the water
John is drifting out of sight,
Its only at the turning point
That you find out how you fight.
In the cold, feel the cold
All around
And the rush of crashing water
Surrounds me with its sound.
Striking out to reach you
I can't get through to the other side,
When you're racing in the rapids
There's only one way, that's to ride.
Taken down, taken down
By the undertow
I'm spiralled down the river bed,
My fire is burning low.
Catching hold of a rock that's firm,
I'm waiting for John to be carried past.
We hold together, hold together
And shoot the rapids fast.
And when the waters slow down
The dark and the deep have no-one, no-one, no-one, no-one, no-one left to
keep.
Hang on John! We're out of this at last.
Somethings changed, that's not your face. It's mine - it's mine!

Genesis | It's Yourself | /g/genesis/its+yourself_20058917.html | Stepping out the back way
Hoping nobody sees
Feeling can be easy
Think how I feel
What will (can) you say?
What will you do?
Why can't you see?
It's yourself I love
(Don't you know I'm not asking
You must have made up your mind
Is it worth the pain you're causing
To those you're leaving behind
What will you say?
What will you do?
Why can't you see?
It's yourself I love)
Don't you know I'd like some answers
You could give me a call
I hardly know the reason
And I really feel no good at all
Where will you go?
Where will you be?
Where can I try?
It's yourself I love

But I'm coming home.
And I'd like you to be there,
I feel a little cold in the air,
And you're not anywhere.
You're just another face, I used to know.
But there is still a chance to hold on to our love,
Cause I gave you everything, everything I had.
Ooh, like it or not
You have done it this time
And like it or not, I've had enough.
Ooh, like it or not
There's a lot I could say
Cause I've got a lot on my mind.
It won't be very long
You're just another face
That I once used to know
And I gave you everything,
But what have I got to show? Oh Oh
Oh, like it or not
You are out on the street
And like it or not
That's where you will stay.
Oh, like it or not
There's another thing darling,
Well I just could not stand another day
Cause if you want to know,
That there is still a chance to hold on to our love
Cause I gave you everything
Everything I had - everything I had.
It's been a long, been a long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Oh it's been a long, been a long long long time
But if I'm right or if I'm wrong, does it matter anyway?
It's been a long long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Ooh it's been a long long long long time

Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Oh it's been a long, been a long long long time

What he's waiting for, I don't know.
But he waits every day now.
He's just waiting for something to show.
And nobody knows him, and nobody cares,
Cause there's no hidin' place,
There's no hidin' place
For you.
Lookin' everywhere at no one,
He sees everything and nothing at all, oh.
When he shouts, nobody listens,
Where he leads, no one will go, oh.
He's a lonely man there on the corner.
What he's waiting for, I don't know.
But he waits every day now.
He's just waiting for something to show.
And nobody knows him, and nobody cares,
Cause there's no hidin' place,
There's no hidin' place
For you and me.
Are we just like all the rest?
We're lookin' too hard for somethin' he's got
Or movin' too fast to rest.
But like a monkey on your back, you need it.
But do you love it enough to leave it all?
Just like the lonely man there on the corner,
What he's waiting for, I don't know.
But he waits every day now,
He's just waiting for that somethin' to show.

And I never felt I needed to impress

Turn the lights down low
No one will know
Turn the lights down low

No not the same mistakes again.
You're taking it all to heart
You're taking it all too hard
Why can't you see what's going on?
I know you'd never admit
You would ever be to blame
Everything's a game to you
The old days are gone
And they're better left alone
I cannot help you, it's much too late
No not this confused again
No not the same mistakes again.
You're taking it all to heart
You're taking it all too hard
There's always a reason why it happened
You never never did anything wrong, but it
It just happened to fall apart
You're taking it all too hard
Now that it's dark, all of your fears,
Like shadows creeping around.
You're much too scared to look down
And it's lonely out on your own
The old days are gone
And they're better left alone
But I still miss you
I keep it to myself
Oh no not this confused again
Oh no not the same mistakes again
You're taking it all to heart
You're taking it all too hard
Oh no not this confused again
Oh no not the same mistakes again
You're taking it all to heart
You're taking it all too hard

Genesis | Tell Me Why | /g/genesis/tell+me+why_20058942.html | Mothers crying in the street
Children dying at their feet, tell me why
People starving everywhere
There's too much food but none to spare, tell me why
Can you see that shaft of sunlight
Can you see it in my eyes
I can feel the fire that's burning
Anger and hope so deep
So deep within my heart
Before my eyes
For some it's too late
It seems there's no-one listening
People sleeping in the streets
No roof above, no food to eat, tell me why
See the questions in their eyes
Listen to their children's cries, tell me why
If there's a God
Is he watching
Can he give a ray of hope
So much pain and so much sorrow
Tell me what does he see
When he looks at you
When he looks at me
What would he say
It seems there's no-one listening
Who would think it still could happen
Even in this time and place
Politicians, they may save themselves
But they won't save their face
Just hope against hope
It's not too late
You say there's nothing you can do
Is there one rule for them and one for you
Tell me why
Listen can you see that shaft of sunlight
Can you see it in my eyes
I can feel the fire that's burning
Anger and hope so deep
So deep within my heart
Before my eyes
For some it's too late
It seems there's no-one listening
Hurry for me, hurry for me, they cry

Tell it's black when I know that it's white
S'always the same, it's just a shame, that's all

Though my heart might tell me so
I can't feel a thing from my head down to my toes
So why does it always seem to be
Me looking at you, you looking at me
S'always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
Turning me on, turning me off
Making me feel like I want too much
Living with you's just putting me through it all of the time
Running around, staying out all night
Taking it all instead of taking one bite
Living with you's just putting me through it all of the time
I could leave but I won't go
It'd be easier I know
I can't feel a thing from my head down to my toes
But why does it always seem to be
Me looking at you, you looking at me
S'always the same, just a shame, that's all
Truth is I love you
More than I wanted to
There's no point in trying to pretend
There's been no-one who
Makes me feel like you do
Say we'll be together til the end
I could leave but I won't go
It'd be easier I know
I can't feel a thing from my head down to my toes
But why does it always seem to be
Me looking at you, you looking at me
S'always the same, just a shame, that's all

With water clear, he cares for all his harvest.
I know a fireman who looks after the fire.

Yes, he's here again, can't you see he's fooled you all.
Share his peace,
Sign the lease.
He's a supersonic scientist,
He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary man.
Look, look into my mouth he cries,
And all the children lost down many paths,
I bet my life you'll walk inside
Hand in hand,
Gland in gland
With a spoonful of miracle,
He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary man.
We will rock you, rock you little snake,
We will keep you snug and warm.

Genesis | The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway | /g/genesis/the+lamb+lies+down+on+broadway_20058864.html | And the lamb lies down on Broadway.
Early morning Manhattan,
Ocean winds blow on the land.
The Movie-Palace is now undone,
The all-night watchmen have had their fun.
Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show,
It's the same old ending-time to go.
Get out!
It seems they cannot leave their dream.
There's something moving in the sidewalk steam,
And the lamb lies down on Broadway.
Nightime's flyers feel their pains.
Drugstore takes down the chains.
Metal motion comes in bursts,
But the gas station can quench that thirst.
Suspension cracked on unmade road
The trucker's eyes read 'Overload'
And out on the subway,
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Exits into daylight, spraygun hid,
And the lamb lies down on Broadway.
The lamb seems right out of place,
Yet the Broadway street scene finds a focus in its face.
Somehow it's lying there,
Brings a stillness to the air.
Though man-made light, at night is very bright,
There's no whitewash victim,
As the neons dim, to the coat of white.
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid,
Wipes his gun-he's forgotten what he did,
And the lamb lies down on Broadway.
Suzanne tired her work all done,
Thinks money-honey-be on-neon.
Cabman's velvet glove sounds the horn
And the sawdust king spits out his scorn.
Wonder women draw your blind!
Don't look at me! I'm not your kind.
I'm Rael!
Something inside me has just begun,
Lord knows what I have done,
And the lamb lies down on Broadway.
On Broadway-
They say the lights are always bright on Broadway.
They say there's always magic in the air.

Genesis | There Must Be Some Other Way | /g/genesis/there+must+be+some+other+way_20058758.html | You're no longer part of my life
I must remind myself again
Too much has happened to us to cause eachother pain
It's over now, there's too much guilt to share
Once there would have been a time for talking and learning
There must be some other way
To get where we have to go
There must be some other way
Please show me another way
Once it would have been so easy, to do what we have to do
There must be some other way
Please show me another way
Are we no more than parts in a play
Letting other people, strangers say our lines?
To think it should come to this, after all these years
What was mine and what should stay behind
Once there would have been a time of sharing, of caring
There must be some other way
To get where we have to go
There must be some other way
Please show me another way
Once it would have been so easy to do what we have to do
(there must be some other way)
There must be some other way
Please show me, show me another way
There's nothing much left to say
We have said it once and said it all again
This time we have gone too far, it could never be the same
It's time to carry on create new lives
Once we promised we would stay together forever
There must be some other way
To get where we have to go (there must be some other way)
There must be some other way
Please show me another way
Once it would have been so easy to do what we have to do (what we have to do)
You know there must be some other way
Please show me another way
You know there must be another way
Please show me, show me another way (there must be some other way)
You know there must be some other way

Genesis | Visions Of Angels | /g/genesis/visions+of+angels_20058905.html | Standing in a forest gazing at the sun
Looking at the trees but there's not even one
See a rippling stream that smiles and then goes by
Run to feel its comfort but the water's dry.
I see her face and run to take her hand
Why she's never there I just don't understand
The trumpets sound my whole world crumbles down
Visions of angels all around
Dance in the sky.
Leaving me here
Forever goodbye.
As the leaves will crumble so will fall my love
For the fragile beauty of our lives must fade
Though I once remember echoes of my youth
Now I sense no past, no love that ends in love
Take this dream the stars have filled with light
As the blossom glides like snowflakes from the trees
In vengeance to a god no-one can reach
Visions of angels all around
Dance in the sky.
Leaving me here
Forever goodbye.
Ice is moving and the world's begun to freeze
See the sunlight stopped and deadned by the breeze
Minds are empty bodies more insensitive
Some believe that when they die they really live
I believe there never is an end
God gave up the world its people long ago
Why she's never there I still don't understand
Visions of angels all around
Dance in the sky.
Leaving me here
Forever goodbye.

Days to enjoy, peace I knew once before me
Dawning to dusk on the hills until morning
Come see me take my hand
Come see me in my land
Flying invisibly high, watch me
All on a beautiful sky, I'll be
Clear and serene in the love I've discovered
Long search is over, the soul is uncovered
Resting on joy that abounds without ceasing
Bidding farewell to the fears now decreased
Come see me take my hand
Come see me in my land
High on a golden crested wave she sits
The little nymphs dance in her hair
The trees all beckon to the sky to bless their empty lives
Horizons come to sip wine there
The veiled mist reveals the wandering ship upon the reef
The albatross flies to the stern
And only Jack Frost saw the kiss you gave him in return
Crossing the mountains of truth see them
Soaring majestically high, and then
Stop at the warning light, see it flash brightly
Thunder awakes me, it crashes beside me
Shatter the scene and bring chaos to beauty
Leading me forward where destiny may be
Come see me take my hand
View from another land
