- Long Way Down
Find myself within
Darkness twisting me around
There is nothing I can done
This world doesn't spin
It just turns itself around... and around
The night chokes tight
In the nerves
- Not The Love We Dream Of
Sometimes things don't work out the way you planned
Sometimes words don't say the things you mean
Sometimes you can't explain the way you feel
Sometimes when we smile we tell the same lie
With a whisper - everything you know
Is torn away and life just stops
With a whisper - everything you are
- A Dream of Siam
You and me are old
You and me are young
You and me have always
Let words go unsung
Nothing left to see
Nothing left to do
- A Prayer For The Unborn
So, I prayed
But you weren't listening.
Making miracles?
So, I begged
But you were far away.
Saving souls perhaps?
- A Question of Faith
I'll crawl for you
Hurt if you want to
I'll be the thing that you feed.
I'm not asking
For love or redemption
I'll sell my guilt to your need.
- Absolution
I would swim across oceans
Just to talk with you
I would climb a tall mountain
Just to look at you
I'd give my soul to the devil
If you asked me to
I would walk out of heaven
Just to be with you
- Ancients
some can shine
some can fly
some are glorious
some are ancient
some are wise
some are strong
some are everything
- Are 'Friends' Electric
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
- Bed of Thorns
I am waiting in the dark
Waiting for a dark light
To show me the way
I'm hiding from the world
Trip on my ambition
Drowning in my fail
You're welcome to stand in my place
You're welcome to feel what I felt
- Before You Hate It
Here it comes again
That old familiar pain
Here it comes again
Now it has a name
What am I to do?
And where am I to go?
Here it comes again
- Berserker
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
- Betrayed
You were young, so I breathed for you
You were pure, so I danced for you
You were lost and I cried for you
You were lost, but I was betrayed
You were mine and I worshipped you
You were mine, but I was betrayed
- Bleed
Someone is talking
But it's not conversation,
Sounds more like a voice in my head.
It says
'I live in nightmares
I'm the new god of panic
And I'm waiting for you to come home to me.
- Blind
I put my fear back in its box
And I put the box where love is blind
And I walk in the dark
Where pain waits smiling
And I know that I can't leave
I look at what I've become
I'm a pure and perfect lie
- Call Out the Dogs
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
- Cars
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
- Complex

And they're sure to forget
Saying "everyone lies"

I'm down to walking on air
And you're here by my side
- Confession
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.
- Conversation
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
- Crash
Don't things change
Don't we all
What's it like to crash?
The driver
Nothing more to prove
So please just send in the machines
We know little of celebrations
- Crazier
The more I take a look inside, the more I'm fried
The more I understand the ride, the more I slide
The more you put me back in line, the more I tried
The more you looked into my eyes, the more you lied
I come back crazier, but feel much better
You come back crazier, you'll feel better
- Dark
I've been waiting here
Waiting for faith
And the word to fall.
Now the darkness comes
And I'll pray for
The end of us all.
Don't let the dark into me
- Dark Sunday
You're like poison
You smile at me
Talk of love.
'He' will forgive me
If I confess.
Your dark Sunday
You lied to me

Thought I was asleep
Lost to dreams
I was dying in a big machine
Didn't think the voice that called me
Could be real.
Thought I woke up
Lost my faith
- Dead Son Rising
We come, We go
Some world we can remember the dark.
No songs, no words
Just whispers that wait for you to sleep.
And when you dream, we'll come for you
And breathe in your pain.
We've seen such things, hide them from you
- Dead Sun Rising
We come; we go; we can remember "The Dark"
No songs; no words; just whispers that wait for you to sleep
And when you dream, we'll come for you and breathe in your pain
We've seen such things (and) hide them from you and so keep you pure
I've seen gods bleeding
I've seen worlds burn
I've seen stars falling
- 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.
- Empty Bed Empty Heart
You let me down
How cold love can be
I've nothing more to lose
I'm trapped inside and dying
I'm trapped inside and dying
I don't sleep without you
Empty bed, empty heart
- Exile
I heard it in my sleep
A voice more dead than old
I thought I'd known the fear
But then it touched my soul and said:
"You will pray for me
Bow your head to me."
- Films
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
- Fold
I fold your letter
All lies, all cold
I fold my memories
My life, my soul
I fold compassion
And vengeance bleeds through
I fold forgiveness

Look around
Do you see?
Everything is fading
Everything just fades away
Look around
Do you see?
Everyone looks lonely
- God Only Knows
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
- 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
- Haunted
And I can not be saved
Not by you, not by God
I want to bleed
And I can hardly breath
Look at me, falling down
Before your eyes
- Here In The Black
Here in the black there's a feeling of loss
But it's a hungry and restless
And it's looking, desperate for something
And if feels like a job, all the screaming and helpless
And this, absent of mercy, it's alive and now it's filled
With not a shred of compassion or love
It comes like a burden of evil and it stays in the ground
Where's a desolate shadow of fear
- I Am Dust
Songwriters: Webb, Gary Anthony James
We we're dust in a world
Of grim obsession.
We wouldn't taunt from mouth
Like an isolation.
We we're pulled from our path

I'm up here
You're down there
Call me 'The Baitman'

If you wish but
I don't believe
I don't believe
- I Am Screaming
Do you regret the words you never said?
Do you feel lost like I do?
Do you regret the things you never did
As if time waited for you?
Can you see me?
Can you feel me?
Can you hear me?
I am screaming
- I Can't Breathe
I'm scared to sleep, I scared to dream
I'm scared to wake up in case I scream
I'm scared to whisper one word.
That's all it needs
I hear it breathe, I hear it sigh
I hear it laughing when something dies
I hear it calling
But I'm too scared to move
- I Can't Stop
I've been there and seen it
I've been up and down
And I've been fighting for so long.
I can't stop for all your stories
I can't stop for all you young hearts.
Been up on the power
- 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, watch them turn on me
- I, Assassin
We are assassins
We are not evil
We act with reason and heart
Your heart
We are not vicious
Is that surprising?
We're so much larger than life
- In A Dark Place
Gary Numan
"In A Dark Place"
Something calls me
From a dark place
And so I pray every night
- Innocence Bleeding
Do you believe in heaven
That man's soul is eternal
Our prayers are always answered
That miracles can happen
Save me
But don't you wonder
Save me
- Listen To My Voice
Listen to my voice,
And please try to understand,
The one you call 'Messiah' is a lie.
You are not the plan
And your beginning to annoy.
You are just a game and It has won.
You will never see
The places promised by your faith.
- Little Invitro
I can't believe
That you're gone and we're alone
I can't believe
That we'll never see your face
I can't believe
That you're at the gates of Heaven
I can't believe
That we'll never know you
- Love And Napalm
Call me Deadliner
Nothing in here but dust.
Are you afraid dear listener?
Nothing in here but us.
I'll give you black rumours
'Stay away from everything I've seen.'
I'll give you black rumours
- Love Hurt Bleed
Love seems all I want
Love seems all I need
Love seems everything
I know everything bleeds
EVERYTHING BLEEDS
EVERYTHING BLEEDS
EVERYTHING BLEEDS
- 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
- Metal
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
- Music For Chameleons
At 4 o'clock we land
And I'll wave my flag for you
Interest in heart
We are not savage
Like children
We're people
"What difference" I say
- My Centurion
Somewhere in
Dark corners
I know
Something is wrong.
No fear
No talking
Just this long wait for pain
- My Dying Machine
Why give orders?
Why give speeches?
No more questions
No more answers
All that's left is the fear
I can feel they're here
- My Jesus
My Jesus is like a voice in the dark
My Jesus is like a lonely warning
My Jesus is like a fear that haunts me
My Jesus is like a tortured memory
I'm Praying for my soul
My Jesus is a collector of pain
My Jesus says
"Pain will prove you love me"
- My Name Is Ruin
When they called me broken, I knew
When they called me evil, I knew
When they called me ruin, I knew
I would always find my way to you
When I beg forgiveness, they knew
When I beg for mercy, they knew
When I beg for nothing, they knew
- My Shadow In Vain
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
- My World Storm
This is new vengeance.
I like noise
I suck art
I like romance when it's in my car.
This is new vengeance.
I like games
- New Anger
I've read the papers
Look at this
They say that I'm all over
I don't know
They're not the first ones to try
So try
Again
- Noise Noise
What's it to you
If I feel now
Just a face in the wall
Crawling out of the ground
Now look at me
You cry
Like a leaf in the fall
I fly in the sky, don't you?
- Now and Forever
I see you now and forever
You are why I live i choose you
Now and forever and this is my life to give
I am torn now and forever
I know all things end i'll be lost
In the forever until I find you again
- Observer
I could stand here for days
Or I could stand here for hours
I could stand here for a lifetime
Watching you and waiting always
I could observe you all
I could wait for a day
Or I could wait for an hour
- One Perfect Lie
One. One perfect lie.
Was it told too soon?
And one, one perfect life
Turned to stone.
Cold mercy.
I kneel down by your grave
I kneel down torn and guilty

Here is my
Small black box
Filled with hurt
Sent by you
Here is my
Small black book
Filled with lies

We are deceived
Valhalla is falling
We are betrayed
We are lost and forsaken.
He's sold the world
Sold us all to the hunger
The body of Christ
Is as black as his soul.
- Pure

I want to feel you pull away
I want to feel you realise
That I am not Love come to play
I want to feel your pink clean skin
I want to feel your purity
I want to feel you touch my pain
- Radio Heart
I lose myself in the night
Walking the streets in the rain.
I turn away from the light
to find the shadows again.
I see her face in the window
I feel the touch of her hand
I hear her voice say "I need you"
- Remind Me to Smile
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

That's OK
If that's the way you wanna play it
I don't mind
I can play it anyway
You won't stop
Until I pul you to pieces
Which I will in time
- RIP
I'll get down on my knees
I'll do anything I can
I'll even walk upon water
I'll Burn the soul of man
I'm so sick with need
I'm so sick with pain
I'll lay before the cross and pray
- Saints and Liars
Can you see your fallen God?
He's standing next to me, far from home
Can you hear your broken promises?
I am what you've been waiting for
Can you feel your righteous anger?
It's like a poison that feeds the soul
Can you hide from saints and liars
- Scanner
Gary Numan
"Scanner"
I would take your place
If your world fell down
I would take your pain
And leave a smile

You're up I'm down
She's got claws

Here in this room
I'm a slave to your voice
I wait in the dark
With a cold metal choice
Here in this room
Where desire will bleed
And no-one can help you
No-one but me
- Sleep By Windows
You can cry by my window
You can crawl on the floor
You can scream if you want to
But I won't unlock the door
You can sleep in bus shelters
You can sleep in the park
But I'll rip up the trees
- Stories
She sits in the corner
Where it's reasonably quiet
Drinking coffee with cream
Thinking stories of young love
She calls to the waiter
'Won't you lend me some time?
You can sit by my side
And I'll let you be friends with mine.'
- The Calling
You don't hear me
You don't see me
You don't even know I'm alive
So why do you call me?
I have young things
And they need me
What on earth can I do for you?
- The Chosen
Do you need one more sign?
A gift for the old?
Can you see or are you so blind?
I raised the oceans
Here you are, lost to the truth
Lost to all reason
Here you are, the pain in my heart
- The Dark In Me
Can you feel me close to you?
Can you hear me pray for you?
Can you taste my need for you?
Can you see I’m here with you?
Ho ho ho ho ho ho
Me my shame
Ho ho ho ho ho ho
- The End of Dragons
Sometimes, when I'm sleeping
I can hear your song
Sometimes, when I'm dreaming
I forget that you're gone
Now when the wind cries, I remember you
Now as the world dies, I remember you
Sometimes, in the silence
- 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?
- The Gift
Do you like the gift I made for you?
Just one little thing left to remember
It's made to take your breath away
Do you feel it's beauty within you?
Just one little thing to be aware of
It wants to take your breath away
- The Hunter
I'm in a big clean room
There's blood on my shirt
I'm in bad shape from the crash
Now I know it's all over
Now I know it's all over you
Something's wrong.
Now I know it's all over
- The Joy Circuit
Send in the guards
We are all new faces
I'm so sorry
But my reasons are wrong
My reasons are wrong
We are on joy circuit
The image fix
- The Need
Get the need
Get it.
I'm in the movies.
Hello young thing
I'm an old film star
Maybe you've seen my picture.
- The Seed Of A Lie
I'm a ghost in the dark and I'm yours.
I belong in the past and I'm yours.
Like a song you forget, and I'm yours.
Like a dream in the night, and I'm yours.
The wrong place?
The wrong time?
I don't know.
- This is Emotion
This is
This is emotion calling
Inside
You don't know me
One game
A miracle of invention
You lose
These rules are mine
- This Wreckage
And what if God's dead
We must have done something wrong
This dark facade ends
We're independent from someone
This wreckage I call me
Would like to frame your voice
This wreckage I call me
- Voix
I don't like young girls
I don't like boys
I like some bitch to scare me
I like that noise
I don't like secrets
I don't like God
I don't like people
- Walking With Shadows
All my life
They've been here.
Waiting for you.
Patiently.
All they want is your heart and soul
They want your tears to fall
All they want is your purest sin
- War Songs
I like new fashion
I like old stories
Like my sister used to tell
This is the voice
This is the picture
I like romantics
But I don't like Steven
- Warriors
I fall down
No control somehow
No help now
My favor slides
No one comes here
And now I'm feeding strangers
Thin air, like cold death, like cold death
- We Are Glass
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
- We Are so Fragile
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
- We're The Unforgiven
Once there was life and we were strong, full of pride
Once we bred fear and we would take the flesh denied
Once we were God's and all things knelt before our word or died
Now we're just a ruin
We were our undoing
We're the unforgiven.
Once there was light but we were vain, lost in mind
- When The Sky Bleeds, He Will Come
I thought I heard someone crying, thought I heard someone crying
And I thought it was me
I thought I heard someone screaming, thought I heard someone screaming
I bleed for you. I bleed for... I bleed for...
I, I, I need something to live for
Is this the end we're deserving?
I, I, I need something to live for
- Where I Can Never Be
And nothing I say, and nothing I can be
And nothing I do will ever bring you back to me.
And all that we loved, and all that we hoped for
And all that we dreamed is lost and slowly fades away.
You are still breathing, so you are where I can never be.
And all that I was, and all that I wanted
And all that I could have been is gone and turns to stone.
- Who Are You
I don’t think I’ve ever seen your face
Who are you, who are you?
I don’t think I’ve ever heard your voice
Who are you, who are you?
I don’t think I’ve ever touched your heart
Who are you, who are you?
I don’t think I’ve ever known your name
Who are you, who are you?
- Your Fascination
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
