"Love Is Like Clock Law"

"Love Is Like Clock Law"


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

"Love Isolation"

"Love Isolation"


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

"Love Like A Ghost"

"Love Like A Ghost"


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]

"M.E."

"M.E."


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
Now it's over
But there's no one left to see
And there's no one left to die
There's only M.E.

Why should 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.

"M.E. (Gary Numan Mix)"


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
Now it's over
But there's no one left to see
And there's no one left to die
There's only M.E.

Why should 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.

"Machine And Soul"

"Machine And Soul"


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

"Magic"

"Magic"


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.

"Me! I Disconnect From You"

"Me! I Disconnect From You"


The alarm rang for days
You could tell from conversations
I was waiting by the screen
I couldn't recognise 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

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
