Lyrics Gary Numan - The Fall

Lyrics Gary Numan - The Fall


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

Lyrics Gary Numan - Friends

Lyrics Gary Numan - Friends


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

Lyrics Gary Numan - Like A Refugee

Lyrics Gary Numan - Like A Refugee


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.

Lyrics Gary Numan - O.d. Receiver

Lyrics Gary Numan - O.d. Receiver


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...

Lyrics Gary Numan - My Love Is A Liquid

Lyrics Gary Numan - My Love Is A Liquid


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]

Lyrics Gary Numan - Hunger

Lyrics Gary Numan - Hunger


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"

Lyrics Gary Numan - Me! I Disconnect From You

Lyrics Gary Numan - Me! I Disconnect From You


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

Lyrics Gary Numan - Machine And Soul

Lyrics Gary Numan - 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

Lyrics Gary Numan - The God Film

Lyrics Gary Numan - The God Film


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?

Lyrics Gary Numan - Love Needs No Disguise

Lyrics Gary Numan - Love Needs No Disguise


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

Lyrics Gary Numan - My Brother's Time

Lyrics Gary Numan - My Brother's Time


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

Lyrics Gary Numan - I'm On Automatic

Lyrics Gary Numan - I'm On Automatic


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

Lyrics Gary Numan - Strange Charm

Lyrics Gary Numan - Strange Charm


I don't know
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.

Lyrics Gary Numan - Dominion Day

Lyrics Gary Numan - Dominion Day


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'

Lyrics Gary Numan - I Die: You Die

Lyrics Gary Numan - I Die: You Die


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.

Lyrics Gary Numan - Mean Street

Lyrics Gary Numan - Mean Street


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

Lyrics Gary Numan - Magic

Lyrics Gary Numan - 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

Lyrics Gary Numan - Basic J

Lyrics Gary Numan - Basic J


Jo the waiter spilling wine
Over some ex-friends of mine
In zero cafe number 9
What you gonna say this time

Basic J, say, are you new here

New ones walking down the stairs
Pretty young thing but no-one cares
Jo the waiter drops the tray
Do you always know your name

Jo the waiter smiled at me
Jo the waiter's company
I keep him in a book by my fireside
A drama is my perfect bride

Lyrics Gary Numan - Jo The Waiter

Lyrics Gary Numan - Jo The Waiter


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

Lyrics Gary Numan - Halo

Lyrics Gary Numan - Halo


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?
