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 |

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 |

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. |

Fade to screens of violence
Like a TV screen but silent Where the victims are all paid by the hour Staring at the ceiling As she gyrates all around me I am trying to forget she's done this all before Far too many people For a quiet night with myself Oh I could be anyone tonight Focus on a feeling I've detected while I'm sleeping Sing a chorus of "On Broadway" and deny it all You are in my vision I can't turn my face You are in my vision I can't move my eyes You are in my vision I can't move at all You are in my vision Delicate bodies That decay beneath their clothing Play cards in an empty house in Paris The wreckage of a hero Lies broken in a corner And everyone pretends they like to live that way You are in my vision I can't turn my face You are in my vision I can't move my eyes You are in my vision I can't move at all You are in my vision |

The problems of need I need you
Obscene dreams in rusty beds No one came here tonight I pulled on me, I need to I un-stick pages and read I look at pictures of you I smell the lust in my hands Everyday I die Her favorite trick was to suck me inside Oh so very art nouveau completely false Feelings of love I don't No one knows, but that died years ago I un-stick pages and read I look at pictures of you I smell the lust in my hands Everyday I die |

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 |

We are so fragile
Advertising lies that are whiter than yours We are so fragile They could give us a war just to keep us amused We are so fragile I could stay here inside and say it's all been done We are so fragile Just pretend I never tried, I'll leave it up to you We are still so young And it must be wrong but I'd do it all the same We are really so shy There's nothing I can do except believe in you We could always go home But everyone says this is the place to be We are so unnatural But you wouldn't understand, you want to deal with men |

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 |

We'll take a taxi to the show
We could report by phone We could remind ourselves that We must laugh Reconsider: 'fame' I need new reasons This is detention it's not fun at all Remind me to smile You know, 'the old friends' line It gets so I feel like I'm in this cold, glass, cage I've got the horrors Check, over my shoulder I punch the air and fight but No-one's there You you - Oh no Old scars - don't show We fall - you see Crawl crawl - in love I dive - so clean Young things - don't scream Toys toys - so far Boys boys - you are (Chorus) Get off the car Get off the phone Move from my window, leave me alone Keep your revivals Keep your conventions Keep all your fantasies that's all we are |

Where are the tracks?
Where are the lines? Where are the tracks, dear? Where is the time? You were so cold You were so slow You were so old And we were unsure And I want your lines And I want your time And I want your face, dear And you can have mine |

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> |

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 |

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 |

There's nothing here but us
There's nothing here but us Remember, I was vapour Remember, I was just like you Remember, I was liquid Remember, I was someone too Remember, I need others Remember, I need oxygen Remember, I need lovers Remember, I need to forget Chorus Remember, I am human Remember, I feel just like you Remember, I had reasons Remember, I had friends like you Remember, I grow tired Remember, I could end all this Remember, I have memories Remember, I need to forget |

They say that
Neon lights are bright on Broadway They say there's always magic in the air But when you're walking down the street And you ain't had enough to eat The city all lights up and you're nowhere They say The girls are something else on Broadway Looking at them just gives me the blues 'Cause how're you gonna make some time When all you got is one thin dime And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes They say that Love won't last too long on Broadway Now catch a Greyhound bus for home They all say I bet they're wrong, I know they are 'Cause I can play this here guitar And I won't quit 'till I'm a star On Broadway |

I don't like the film
I don't like the film Play it all back Play it all back And I don't like the scenery And I don't like the set so Pull it all down Pull it all down But I like the actors And I like the show We're so exposed We're so exposed Anything can happen Anything can happen Don't let them see Don't let them know And you wonder why And you wonder why Turn off the lights And turn off the sound |

We're in the building
Where they make us grow And I'm frightened by The liquid engineers Like you. My Mallory heart Is sure to fail I could crawl around the floor Just like I'm real Like you. The sound of metal I want to be You I could learn to be a man Like you. Plug me in And turn me on Oh everything is moving. I need my treatment It's tomorrow they send me Singing 'I am an American'. Do you? Picture this If I could make the change I'd love to pull the wires from the wall Did you? And who are you And how can I try Here inside I like metal Aren't you All I know Is no-one dies I'm still confusing love with need. |

Stroll to the cafe
My God how time flies I close up my brain And another friend dies I feel like a mirror Feel like nothing is mine I could go back to crying But now dying seems fine So I hang from the ceiling Or I sit on the air Or rot in a corner Until somebody cares Faces at random I quote people I knew I'd love to be like me If I could feel like you Here am I, more roche five than pain Here am I, just me and my walls to blame Here am I, I really don't feel quite sane Here am I, still searching for my shadow in vain Lock my door I only think in black and white I'll even try to look ashamed Moving out of central Somebody knows me well Says he'll spill the whole story He may be lying I can't tell Meet me inside I'll keep my head to the floor And one hand on the handle Of the mad/sane door Here am I, more roche five than pain Here am I, just me and my walls to blame Here am I, I really don't feel quite sane Here am I, still searching for my shadow in vain Lock my door I only think in black and white I'll even try to look ashamed My shadow in vain My shadow in vain My shadow in vain My shadow in vain My shadow in vain |
