Assassination of the voice of God
I don't know if I can do it
I've found the problem and the problem's you
I'm here to pick up the pieces.

You won't remember me but I do you
I told you that I would come back
Everything will be decided here
They can read it in the papers.

Your breathing haunts me
My breathing?
The sleeproom still waits for me.

Join the army you can see the world

Nothing I can say
Can make your picture talk
I feel so tired and
Nothing I can do
Will make your picture move
I feel so helpless but
I can feel
A child with the ghost here
You let your heart slip away

If I had one wish
I'd wish to talk with you
I have some questions
Things only you could know
If I had one wish
I'd wish to talk with you
Nothing you can feel
Can feel as cold as this

You're welcome to fame
You're welcome to try
I've been on TV, sold my face to you

You're welcome to love
You're welcome to me
I burned my dream, sold my heart, nobody knew

Listen children
I've seen my future
Call it the deadline for now
I've heard secrets
I've heard excuses
I've heard a voice in the dark

You're waiting for me
You've made a mistake

Here am I
Like a target in flesh
One more time
For you to call out the dogs
Passengers
With a ticket to burn and burn and burn
You will learn
I'm still waiting for you you know

I'm a slogan, an old story,
A disease, never again
I don't like this, new anger,
These young boys, just make me laugh
This picture, I'm so nervous,
The DJ, says 'who are you?'
Look at me, I'm shaking,

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 know how to read alone

Here in the dark some old stories are told.

The telephone haunts me

Like a picture of things that I'd never

Bring home.

CHORUS:

She cries like I do

Too late for new words.

She cries like I do

???? it's a man.

No-one is allowed in here

I'm the ????? new feelings ???

This edge in my voice lacks? sense

I never touched your heart

And I have seen wonders
And I have seen miracles
Oh, I have seen some things
It's all lost to me now
Like tears in the rain

And I have seen sadness
And I have seen time run out
I've even seen men cry
It's all lost to me now
Like tears in the rain

And my memories
I can't give them away
So it's easy
Like a long long sleep
I'm so tired
Now it's my time to die
Welcome home
Welcome home

I've seen love
I've seen hate
I've seen all the emotion God creates.
I've seen good
I've seen bad
I've seen everything that you could ever have.
I've seen you
I've seen me
I've seen everything that I could want to be.
I've seen tall things
I've seen long things
I've seen everything a man was meant to see.

No one came,
no one is here
no one remembers.
MAKES CAMBODIA LOOK LIKE KANSAS,ANYTIME

I listen to rumours

Stone cold and bleeding

They burn my heart away

Left me alone and afraid

Words seem to leave me

Just when I needed them

Just like I need you

Like I'm supposed to do

They say:

Love is deceiving

She won't stay forever

Love is deceiving

Is all that she knows

Love is deceiving

She'll leave you forever

Love is deceiving

She comes and she goes

I'll say good-bye for now
All this love burns away
Did you love for long?
I'll let the boys come in
They'll crawl for you
Here am I
Not talking
Here am I
Not sleeping
Here am I
There's no more I can do
Here am I
There's no more I can say
Here am I
Not talking
Here am I
Not sleeping
Here am i
There's no more I can do
Here am I
There's no more I can say to you

I was waiting for something
I was listening to my breathing
Like a man listening to life

I was looking for fire
It could take me or leave me
It could all just burn away

The oxygen law
It remains me

I'd been surrounded for hours
By the sound of thinking metal
And I knew something was wrong

I can tell you what fear is
It is the smell of burning
And I'd been close once before

Something is here
I can hear them breathe
Something is here
And I'm scared
Beg to your gods
But I don't believe
Nothing in here
Can help me now

Cold warning comes for me

Something is here
And I've got the nerves
Something is here
And I'm cold
I'm so lonely
Do you know how it feels?
All I can do
Now is lose

Cold warning comes for me

I need it
The sex skin habit
You could just crawl out
And forget I'm here

I need it
Love and something
I'd just as soon forget
So keep it out the papers

I need it
'The sex musicians'
I'll show you 'something'
While the boys beat time

I need it
And she's still waiting
We like to wake up
In a strange bed romance

One more time for me
You are the young things fed on garbage and lies

I've seen the 'action'
All kinds of people
Seen things disgusting
I've seen it all

I've heard excuses
All kinds of stories
I've heard confessions
I've heard it all

They wrote bad poems
Painted bad pictures
They say we used them
I'm not sure

Some call it love and
Some call it affection
I don't believe it
It's all clean young flesh

And we all fall down
We all fall down

You say you want it

(***?) me down
How cold love can be
I've nothing more to loose
I'm trapped inside and dying
I don't sleep without you
Empty bed-empty heart
And I'll wait for you
Years and years and years
How strange love can be
It bends and tears and screams
I'm lonely here inside my (head?)
I don't live without you
There's nothing I can do
I'm waiting always waiting
I'm waiting always and old
I'll leave you now

Listen up
This is confession
This machine motion is sure to break my heart

Listen up
This is confession
Recorded music sticks in the throat of God.

I O U, you don't own me
I O U, you don't own me
Party time, one mor night, everybody's affected

Listen up
This is confession
You are a poison that flows into my veins.

Listen up
This is confession
I've never been so scared of letting you down.

I'm in a car
And I'm over you
I'm a passenger
And I'm over you

I'm looking for
America
I'm looking for
You

I'm in a glasshouse
And I'm over you
I'm thin, far too thin
And I'm over you
I'm in a corner
And I'm over you
I'm old, far too old
And I'm over 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

Here am I
Like a target in flesh
One more time
For you to call out the dogs
Passengers
With a ticket to burn and burn and burn
You will learn
I'm still waiting for you you know

I'm a slogan, an old story,
A disease, never again
I don't like this, new anger,
These young boys, just make me laugh
This picture, I'm so nervous,
The DJ, says 'who are you?'
Look at me, I'm shaking,

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

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 S.U.s
And things that I just don't understand

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 are strong we run though
We have time
And to you I'm just
One of those boys
We are glass, we are glass
We are cold
We're not supposed to cry
But it's all just a thought

You walked in
I woke up
I've never seen a pretty girl look so tough baby
You got that look
Color you peach and black
Color me taken aback
Crucial
I think I wantcha

You've got the look
You've got the hook
U sho'nuf do be cookin' in my book
Your face is jammin'
Your body's heck a slammin'
If love is good
Let's get to rammin'
You got the look
You got the look

You got the look
You must a took

My confession
I'll steal anything in sight or sound
My confession
This is the sound of fear
And I'll fall down

I don't need it
If you're gonna leave then do it soon
I don't need it
Everything you've ever seen
I've seen before

Leave her to me
Leave her to me

I don't suppose you ever laughed at me
Your fascination leaves me cold
I don't suppose you ever loved at all

I don't need it

And I have seen wonders
And I have seen miracles
Oh, I have seen some things
It's all lost to me now
Like tears in the rain

And I have seen sadness
And I have seen time run out
I've even seen men cry
It's all lost to me now
Like tears in the rain

And my memories
I can't give them away
So it's easy
Like a long long sleep
I'm so tired
Now it's my time to die
Welcome home
Welcome home

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 hardly receive
I can listen to you
It keeps me stable for days
In cars

Here in my car
Where the image breaks down
Will you visit me please
If I open my door
In cars
Here in my car
You know I've started to think
About leaving tonight
Although nothing seems right
In cars

You're welcome to fame
You're welcome to try
I've been on TV, sold my face to you

You're welcome to love
You're welcome to me
I burned my dream, sold my heart, nobody knew

Listen children
I've seen my future
Call it the deadline for now
I've heard secrets
I've heard excuses
I've heard a voice in the dark

You're waiting for me
You've made a mistake

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, watch them turn on me
And I die: You die
See my scars, they call me such things
Tear me, tear me, tear me

Now I have your names
Screaming 'you will suffer' and 'you're all too late'
Now I feel young

Down in the park
Where the Machmen meet
The machines are playing `kill-by-numbers'
Down in the park with a friend called `Five'

I was in a car crash
Or was it the war?
Well, I've never been quite the same
Little white lies like I was there

Come to Zom-Zom's , a place to eat
Like it was built in one day
You can watch the humans
Try to run

Oh, look, there's a rape machine

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

Confiscate letters like D.E.B.
No natural course of things for her to expect
Withdraw the feelings 'You can, you can't'
I called your number as you told the world

Something is wrong

There is no longer any normal to me
You're my assassin but you can't see the crime
Pointless possessions of me you greed
I looked at you mistaking needles for eyes

Something is wrong
