Why don't you ever listen
It's you I'm talking to
This time it's your decision
We're into something new
I know that I'm thinking
Oh any fool can see
Time that I was thinking
Of no-one else but me
Change your mind
Nothing ever stays the same
Change your mind
No-one ever plays the game game game
Change your mind
Give them what you can't defend
Change your mind
Think it up and start again 'gain 'gain
Why can't you reconsider
Listen if you can
Take familiar giver
Reject me if you dare
Give me what I'm asking
And save it all for me
Love that's everlasting
Is how it's meant to be
Got to pull it up
Got to pull it out
Got to survive
Got to stay calm
Got to think
fast
Don't want to burn
Searching for a door
Searching for a way
Out of this thing
I don't know what's wrong
Don't know what to do
I'm
out of control
Nothing I can do
Nothing seems to work
I'm barely alive
Got to slow it down
Got to do something
Or give in
Watching us fall
Trying everything
Fighting for life
Running out of time
I don't have a choice
I'm riding it in
I'm inside and I'm trying to get out
I'm inside and I'm screaming for some help
And everything's gone wrong
I'm listening to the sound of my own fear
I'm listening to the sound of someone's tears
I'm listening to me
This is the fear
This is nothing like
You could believe
Panic in my heart
Like a cold hand
Pulling at
strings
I'll do anything
Even pray to
God Just let me out
Turn
off the machine
Turn off all the noise
Turn off the world
You learn fast when everything breaks down
You learn fast when
that's all that you can do
You learn fast or nothing
Everything
Everything reminds me
Easily
You walking out so easily
No goodbyes
Not even a tear for me
Now you cry
You'd like to have my company
But I'm not gonna call you again
I'm not gonna pick up the phone
No I'm not going through it again
You're not gonna leave me alone
No more lies
I don't need this anymore
I heard it all
Now I'm gonna close the door
Seems to me
Nothing comes that easily
Time to leave
You'll take it all and run from me
So I'm not gonna call you again
I'm not gonna pick up the phone
No I'm not going through it again
You're not gonna leave me alone
Something here
Something is cold and you know
To speak now is to lie
Sad mistake
Maybe it's mine but I know
You wake up with strangers
Is this love
If I said goodbye there would be
No-one to listen
I could ask
'How do you feel' but I know
You breathe in emotion
So goodbye
I can't play anymore
So goodbye
I'm off the friendship line
So goodbye
I'm breathing emotion
Like some hero
I breathe in emotion
I could cry
'Nothing is wrong' but you know
I don't believe it
I could write words on a page but I know
Love doesn't live here
Look at me
Look at my eyes and you'll know
Everything's over
This is me
This is my heart and you know
I breathe in emotion
So goodbye I can't play anymore
So goodbye I'm off the friendship line
So goodbye I'm breathing emotion
Like some hero I breathe in emotion
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 something's wrong
It's eating me alive
I can't find the reason
So I can't find the cure
They say nothing's wrong forever
But that something's wrong with me
Oh I've never been down so far
I've never been hurt like this
I'm on automatic
I've heard it all before
Some new flavour
With nothing in the heart
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 something's wrong with me
Oh I've never been down so far
I've never been hurt like this
They say nothing's wrong forever
But that something's wrong with me
Oh I've never been down so far
Nothing's ever hurt like this
The new law is moving in
Now you see them now you don't
Like a shadow in my disguise
Like a soft machine on ice
Who are you?
'I'm the man I am the cure and disease'
Who am I?
I'm the need I an the weakness that feeds
I've got to rip it up
I've got to tear it down
I've got to break the word
I've got to fight for you
Who am I to criticise
I'm unsafe at any speed
'We can change the world' she said
Never changed it never tried
I'm cold and hard
But I don't mind
I've been everything I can be
I've been sick
And I've got the screams
These boys don't know when to push
I've got to rip it up
I've got to tear it down
I've got to break the word
I've got to fight for you
Did you know that I don't run
Did you know that I don't hide
Did you know that I don't sleep
Did you know that I don't care
I am the soft machine
I am the word and the law
I am the new machine
I am your feelings and more
Come inside
Play with me
I'll show you things to forget
No-one talks And no-one leaves
No-one remembers the way
I've got to fight the man
I've got to fight the need
I've got to fight the law I
've got to fight the word
I could talk of memories
I could talk of miracles
I can't talk of anything but you
I remember everything
Even how you laughed at me
I remember every word you said
'Love is a game
Love is a game that we play
Love is a game
Love is a game and you lose
Welcome to love'
Now you're waiting for someone
Waiting for the phone to ring
And I wonder who you're waiting for
There is nothing I can say
There are no good words for this
There is nothing more that I can do
Lovers are fools
Lovers are fools in the dark
Lovers are fools
Lovers are foolish and blind
Welcome to love
I can see in your eyes
(You're) talking good but there's nobody home
And I'm breathing it in
But I'm sure that I've heard it before somewhere
I'm alive with the need
And you're welcome to this exhibition 'cos
I'm feeding on me
Now there's far too many opinions here
Voices like whispering friends
Voices are calling again
Voices
no one can see
Voices are welcome to me
And I've been
here once before
I don't know why I'm here
But I'm going to take what I can
I
don't know who to fight
I can't run so I'm turning on you again
I think I need a friend
I need someone inside with the news
I think I need to sleep
Now and maybe forever
Looking through windows like a t.v. screen
Nothing is ever black and white
A sex film distraction for an armchair stud
He's in love for the night
Looking through windows of expensive cars
This week's flavour inside
She's working for the company
She's inlove for the night
Nightlife I've seen it all
Nightlife like pictures of war
Nightlife strangers in the bed
Nightlife try to forget
Looking through windows like an old peep show
I'm listening to breathing and lies
Don't tell mother or the man next door
Girls in love for the night
Looking through windows at a friend of mine
>She's like a knife in my heart
But you can get used to anything
I'm in love for the night
