Walk in silence, don't walk away in silence
See the danger, always danger
Endless talking, life rebuilding
Don't walk away
Walk in silence, don't turn away in silence
Your confusion, my illusion
Worn like a mask of self-hate, confronts and then dies
Don't walk away
People like you find it easy
Naked to see, walking on air
Hunting by the rivers through the streets, every corner
Abandoned too soon, set down with due care
Don't walk away in silence

(Oooooooooh) yeah yeah
(Oooooooooh) yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Oooooooooh) yeah yeah yeah
By answering one simple question
Am I really gonna releive your tension
Put it all in another dimension now
As I'm facing your sidewalk trauma
Why do you have to punish your neighbour
I must confess the prospects, they are found
I don't know why, feel like I'll give just one more good lesson
I ain't just a piece of meat sitting in a delicatessen
Boy, do i turn you round
When i turn you down
Oh isn't this profound
I know i turn you on
You'd never be the one
So why you hangin on
Can your wife and your kids really be a
Part of your untouched feeling
Do you actually think that your getting by
Can you make me a street map of the wheel
Your chasing a ball of string through
Enters at the head office in your mind
I don't know why, feel like I'll give you just one more good lesson
I ain't just some piece of meat sitting in a delicatessen
Boy, do i turn you round
When i turn you down
Oh isn't this profound
I know i turn you on
You'd never be the one
So why you hangin on
Is it really a coinincidence
Or is it just a wind-up
Do you really think you shake my confidence
Are you scared you'll get blown up then
You gotta face the prospects when
You try to eliminate the trend
That's been
Never emulate just stimulate your mind
(Oooooooooh) yeah yeah
(Oooooooooh) yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Oooooooooh) yeah yeah yeah
Boy, do i turn you round
When i turn you down
Oh isn't this profound
I know i turn you on
You'd never be the one
So why you hangin on

So this is permanence, love's shattered pride.
What once was innocence, turned on its side.
A cloud hangs over me, marks every move,
Deep in the memory, of what once was love.
Oh how I realised how I wanted time,
Put into perspective, tried so hard to find,
Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way.
Destiny unfolded, I watched it slip away.
Excessive flashpoints, beyond all reach,
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep.
Let's take a ride out, see what we can find,
A valueless collection of hopes and past desires.
I never realised the lengths I'd have to go,
All the darkest corners of a sense I didn't know.
Just for one moment, I heard somebody call,
Looked beyond the day in hand, there's nothing there at all.
Now that I've realised how it's all gone wrong,
Gottas find some therapy, this treatment takes too long.
Deep in the heart of where sympathy held sway,
Gotta find my destiny, before it gets too late.

This is the hour when the mysteries emerge
A strangeness so hard to reflect
A moment so moving goes straight to your heart
The vision that's never been met
The attraction is held like a weight deep inside
Something I'll never forget
The pattern is set - the reaction will start
Complete but rejected too soon
Looking ahead in the grip of each tear
Recalls the life that we knew
The shadow that stood by the side of the road
Always reminds me of you
How can I find the right way to control
All the conflicts inside, all the problems beside
As the questions arise, and the answers don't fit

Procession moves on, the shouting is over
Praise to the glory of loved ones now gone
Talking aloud as they sit round their tables
Scattering flowers washed down by the rain
Stood by the gate at the foot of the garden
Watching them pass like clouds in the sky
Try to cry out in the heat of the moment
Possessed by a fury that burns from inside
Cry like a child, though these years make me older
With children my time is so wastefully spent
A burden to keep, though their inner communion
Accept like a curse an unlucky deal
Played by the gate at the foot of the garden
My view stretches out from the fence to the wall
No words could explain, no actions determine

This is a crisis I knew had to come,
Destroying the balance I'd kept.
Doubting, unsettling and turning around,
Wondering what will come next.
Is this the role that you wanted to live?
I was foolish to ask for so much.
Without the protection and infancy's guard,
It all falls apart at first touch.
Watching the reel as it comes to a close,
Brutally taking it's time,
People who change for no reason at all,
It's happening all of the time.
Can I go on with this train of events?
Disturbing and purging my mind,
Back out of my duties, when all's said and done,
I know that I'll lose every time.
Moving along in our God given ways,
Safety is sat by the fire,
Sanctuary from these feverish smiles,
Left with a mark on the door,
Is this the gift that I wanted to give?
Forgive and forget's what they teach,
Or pass through the deserts and wastelands once more,
And watch as they drop by the beach.
This is the crisis I knew had to come,
Destroying the balance I'd kept,
Turning around to the next set of lives,
Wondering what will come next.

I've seen the real atrocities,
Buried in the sand,
Stockpiled for safety,
While we stand holding hands.
I'm living in the Ice age,
I'm living in the Ice age,
Nothing will hold,
Nothing will fit,
Into the cold,
It's not an eclipse.
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age.
Searching for another way,
Hide behind the door,
We'll live in holes and disused shafts,
Hopes for little more.
I'm living in the Ice age,
I'm living in the Ice age,
Nothing will hold,
Nothing will fit,
Into the cold,
No smile on your lips,
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age.
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age.
Living in the Ice age.

When people listen to you don't you know it means a lot,
'cos you've got to work so hard for everything you've got.
can't rest on your laurels now,
not when you've got none.
you'll find yourself in a gutter,
right back where you came from.
Someone told me being in the know is the main thing.
we all need the security that belonging brings.
can't stand on your own in these times,
against all the odds,
you all just fall behind like all the other sods.
You slap our backs and pretend you knew about,
all the things that we were gonna do.
what ya gonna do, what ya gonna do,
when it's over?
you're on your own now,
don't you think that's a shame?
but you're the only one responsible to take the blame.
so what ya gonna do when the novelty has gone?
yeah, what ya gonna do when the novelty has gone?
You slap our backs,
and pretend you knew about,
all the things we were gonna do.
what ya gonna do, what ya gonna do

We were strangers
We were strangers
Away too long
Away too long
We were violent strangers
Away too long, violent
Get weak all the time
We just passed the time
Me in my own world
Yeah, you there beside
The gaps only moment
We stared from each side
We were strangers
Away too long
Violent, more violent, his hand cracks the chair
Moves on reaction, then slumps in despair
Trapped in a cage and surrendered too soon
Me in my own world away too long
We were strangers, we were strangers

A change of speed, a change of style
A change of scene, with no regrets
A chance to watch, admire the distance
Still occupied, though you forget
Different colours, different shades
Over each mistakes were made
I took the blame
Directionless so plain to see
A loaded gun won't set you free
So you say
We'll share a drink and step outside
An angry voice and one who cried
"We'll give you everything and more
The strain's too much, can't take much more"
Oh, I've walked on water, run through fire
Can't seem to feel it anymore
It was me, waiting for me
Hoping for something more
Me, seeing me this time

(INSTUMENTAL)

A legacy so far removed,
One day will be improved.
Eternal rights we left behind,
We were the better kind.
Two the same, set free too,
I always looked to you,
I always looked to you,
I always looked to you.
We fought for good, stood side by side,
Our friendship never died.
On stranger waves, the lows and highs,
Our vision touched the sky,
Immortalists with points to prove,
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
A house somewhere on foreign soil,
Where ageless lovers call,
Is this your goal, your final needs,
Where dogs and vultures eat,
Committed still I turn to go.
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
In you. In you. In you.
Put my trust in you, in you.

Instincts that can still betray us
A journey that leads to the sun
Soulless and bent on destruction
A struggle between right and wrong
You take my place in the showdown
I'll observe with a pitiful eye
I'd humbly ask for forgiveness
A request well beyond you and I
Heart and soul
One will burn
Heart and soul
One will burn
An abyss that laughs at creation
A circus complete with all fools
Foundations that lasted the ages
Then ripped apart at their roots
Beyond all this good is the terror
The grip of a mercenary hand
When savagery turns all good reason
There's no turning back, no last stand
Heart and soul
One will burn
Heart and soul
One will burn
Existence, well what does it matter?
I exist on the best terms I can
The past is now part of my future
The present is well out of hand
The present is well out of hand
Heart and soul
One will burn
Heart and soul
One will burn
One will burn
One will burn
Heart and soul

I walked through the city limits
Someone talked me in to try to do it
Attracted by some force within it
Had to close my eyes to get close to it
Around a corner where a prophet lay
Saw the place where she had a room to stay
A wire fence where the children play
Saw the bed where the body lay
And I was looking for a friend of mine
And I had no time to waste
Yeah, looking for some friends of mine
The cars screeched, hear the sound on dust
Heard a noise, just a car outside
Metallic blue turned red with rust
Pulled in close by the building's side
In a group, all forgotten youth
Had to think, collect my senses now
Are turned on to a knife edged view
Find some places where my friends don't know
And I was looking for a friend of mine
And I had no time to waste
Yeah, looking for some friends of mine
Down the dark streets, the houses looked the same
Getting darker now, faces look the same
And I walked round and round, nail me to a train
No stomach, torn apart, had to think again
Trying to find a clue, trying to find a way to get out
Trying to move away, had to move away and keep out
Four, twelve windows, ten in a row
Behind a wall, well I looked down low
The lights shined like a neon show
Inserted deep, felt a warmer glow
No place to stop, no place to go
No time to lose, had to keep on going
I guess they died some time ago
I guess they died some time ago
And I was looking for a friend of mine
And I had no time to waste

When you're looking at life,
In a strange new room,
Maybe drowning soon,
Is this the start of it all?
Turn on your TV,
Turn down your pulse,
Turn away from it all,
It's all getting too much.
When you're looking at life,
Deciphering scars,
Just who fooled who,
Sit still in their cars,
The lights look bright,
When you reach outside,
Time for one last ride,

Here are the young men, the weight on their shoulders,
Here are the young men, well where have they been?
We knocked on the doors of Hell's darker chamber,
Pushed to the limit, we dragged ourselves in,
Watched from the wings as the scenes were replaying,
We saw ourselves now as we never had seen.
Portrayal of the trauma and degeneration,
The sorrows we suffered and never were free.
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Weary inside, now our heart's lost forever,
Can't replace the fear, or the thrill of the chase,
Each ritual showed up the door for our wanderings,
Open then shut, then slammed in our face.
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Where have they been?

This is why events unnerve me,
They find it all, a different story,
Notice whom for wheels are turning,
Turn again and turn towards this time,
All she ask's the strength to hold me,
Then again the same old story,
Word will travel, oh so quickly,
Travel first and lean towards this time.
Oh, I'll break them down, no mercy shown,
Heaven knows, it's got to be this time,
Watching her, these things she said,
The times she cried,
Too frail to wake this time.
Oh, I'll break them down, no mercy shown,
Heaven knows, it's got to be this time,
Avenues all lined with trees,
Picture me and then you start watching,
Watching forever, forever,
Watching love grow, forever,
Letting me know, forever.

This is the room, the start of it all
No portraits so fine, only sheets on the wall
I've seen the nights, filled with bloodsports in vain
And the body is obtained, the body is obtained
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
These are your friends from childhood for you
Who goaded you on, demanded full proof
Withdraw maiden's heart and do you right in
So distorted and thin, distorted and thin
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
This is the car, at the edge of the road
There's nothing disturbed, all the windows are closed
I guess you were right when we talked in the heat
There's no room for the weak, no room for the weak
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
This is the room, the start of it all
dreamt I fled from you, I remember it all
Oh, I've seen the nights, filled with bloodsport in vain
And the body's obtained, the body's obtained, the body's obtained
Where will it end?
Where will it end?
Where will it end?

I've been waiting for a guide to come and take me by the hand
Could these sensations make me feel the pleasures of a normal man?
New sensations bear the innocence, leave them for another day
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, take the shock away
It's getting faster, moving faster now, it's getting out of hand
On the tenth floor, down the backstairs into no man's land
Lights are flashing, cars are crashing, getting frequent now
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, let it out somehow
What means to you, what means to me and we will meet again
I'm watching you, I watch it all, I take no pity from your friends
Who is right, who can tell and who gives a damn right now?
Until' the spirit, new sensation takes hold, then you know
Until' the spirit, new sensation takes hold, then you know
Until' the spirit, new sensation takes hold, then you know
I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling
I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling
Feeling
Feeling
Feeling

A cry for help, a hint of anaesthesia,
The sound from broken homes,
We used to always meet here.
As he lays asleep, she takes him in her arms,
Some things I have to do, but I don't mean you harm.
A worried parent's glance, a kiss, a last goodbye,
Hands him the bag she packed, the tears she tries to hide,
A cruel wind that blows down to our lunacy
And leaves him standing cold here in this colony.
I can't see why all these confrontations,
I can't see why all these dislocations,
No family life, this makes me feel uneasy,
Stood alone here in this colony.
In this colony, in this colony, in this colony, in this colony.
Dear God in his wisdom took you by the hand,
God in his wisdom made you understand.
God in his wisdom took you by the hand,
God in his wisdom made you understand.
God in his wisdom took you by the hand,
God in his wisdom made you understand.
God in his wisdom took you by the hand,
God in his wisdom made you understand.
In this colony, in this colony, in this colony, in this colony.

Forced by the pressure
The territories marked
No longer the pleasure
Oh, I've since lost the heart
Corrupted from memory
No longer the power
It's creeping up slowly
That last fatal hour
Oh, I don't know what made me
Or what gave me the right
To mess with your values
And change wrong to right
Please keep your distance
The trail leads to here
There's blood on your fingers
Brought on by fear
I campaigned for nothing
I worked hard for this
I tried to get to you
You treat me like this
It's just second nature
It's what we've been shown
We're living by your rules
That's all that we know
I tried to get to you
I tried to get to you
I tried to get to you

Guess your dreams always end
They don't rise up, just descend
But I don't care anymore
I've lost the will to want more
I'm not afraid, not at all
I watch them all as they fall
But I remember
When we were young
Those with habits of waste
Their sense of style and the taste
Of making sure you were right
Hey, don't you know you were right
I'm not afraid anymore
I keep my eyes on the door
But I remember
Tears of sadness for you
More upheaval for you
Reflects a moment in time
A special moment in time
Yeah, we wasted our time
We didn't really have time
But we remember
When we were young
And all God's angels beware
And all you judges beware
Sons of chance, take good care
For all the people not there
I'm not afraid anymore
I'm not afraid anymore
I'm not afraid anymore

All dressed in uniforms so fine,
They drank and killed to pass the time,
Wearing the shame of all their crimes,
With measured steps, they walked in line.
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line.
They carried pictures of their wives,
And numbered tags to prove their lives,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line.
Full of a glory never seen,
They made it through the whole machine,
To never question anymore,
Hypnotic trance, they never saw,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
Walked in line,
Walked in line.

See my true reflection,
Cut off my own connections,
I can see life getting harder,
So sad is this sensation,
Reverse the situation,
I can't see it getting better.
I'll walk you through the heartbreak,
Show you all the out takes,
I can't see it getting higher,
Systematically degraded,
Emotionally a scapegoat,
I can't see it getting better.
Perverse and unrealistic,
Try to make it all sick,
I can't see it getting better,
Hollow now, I'm burned out,
All I need to break out,
I can't see life getting higher,
Love, life, makes you feel higher,
Love, of life, makes you feel higher,
Higher, higher, higher, higher,
Higher, higher, higher, higher,
Love of life, makes you feel higher.

Moved in a hired car,
And I find no way to run,
Adds every moment longer,
Had no time for fun,
Just something that I knew I had to do,
But through it all I lefy my eyes on you.
I had an impulse to clear it all away,
Oh I used the tactics, make everybody pay,
Just something that I knew I had to do,
But through it all I kept my eyes on you.
Oh, I keep it all clean,
I've paid the graces there,
No kings of misuse,
No sellers of flesh,
Just something that I knew I had to do,
But through it all I kept my eyes on you,
Yeah through it all I kept my eyes on you,
But through it all I kept my eyes on you.

Jimmy came from Carolina
Wants to know a way to earn a dollar
Says he's suffering with a fever
Just like Sister Ray says
I'm searching for my mainline
I couldn't hit it sideways
I'm searching for my mainline
I couldn't hit it sideways
Jimmy's got a new piece
Lying cold for a quarter hour
Took it out of his suitcase
Shot him dead right on the floor
Hey man, you shouldn't do that
Don't you know you'll stain the carpet
Hey man, you shouldn't do that
Just like Sister Ray says
Too busy sucking on a ding dong
Hey don't you know you'll stain the carpet
Too busy sucking on my ding dong
Hey you know you shouldn't do that
I'm searching for my mainline
I couldn't hit it sideways
I'm searching for my mainline
Going to count one, two, three, four
Jimmy came from Carolina
Wants to know a way to earn a dollar
Says he didn't like the weather
It's just like Sister Ray says
Hit on it Jim - hit on it Jim --
Had a good night - had a good night --
Jimmy's got a new piece
Cold hearted for the fingering
Took it out in front of him
Shot him dead right on the floor
Hey man, you shouldn't do that
Hey don't you know you'll stain the carpet
Hey man, you shouldn't do that
Don't you know you'll stain the carpet
It's just like Sister Ray said
Just like Sister Ray said
Had a good night - had a good night --
Had a good night - had a good night --
Just like Sister Ray said
Just like Sister Ray said

Feel it closing in
Feel it closing in
The fear of whom I call
Every time I call
I feel it closing in
I feel it closing in
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
I feel it closing in
As patterns seem to form
I feel it cold and warm
The shadows start to fall
I feel it closing in
I feel it closing in
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
Day in, day out
I'd have the world around
To see just whatever happens
Stood by the door alone
And then it's fade away
I see you fade away
Don't ever fade away
I need you here today
Don't ever fade away
Don't ever fade away
Fade away, fade away
Fade away, fade away
Fade away, fade away
Fade away, fade away

I traveled far and wide through many different times, what did you see there?
I saw the saints with their toys, what did you see there?
I saw all knowledge destroyed
I traveled far and wide through many different times
I traveled far and wide to prisons of the cross, what did you see there?
The power and glory of sin, what did you see there?
The blood of Christ on their skins
I traveled far and wide through many different times
I traveled far and wide where unknown martyrs died, what did you see there?
I saw the one-sided trials, what did you see there?
I saw the tears as they cried
They had tears in their eyes
Tears in their eyes
Tears in their eyes

Confusion in her eyes that says it all.
She's lost control.
And she's clinging to the nearest passer by,
She's lost control.
And she gave away the secrets of her past,
And said I've lost control again,
And a voice that told her when and where to act,
She said I've lost control again.
And she turned around and took me by the hand and said,
I've lost control again.
And how I'll never know just why or understand,
She said I've lost control again.
And she screamed out kicking on her side and said,
I've lost control again.
And seized up on the floor, I thought she'd die.
She said I've lost control.
She's lost control again.
She's lost control.
She's lost control again.
She's lost control.
Well I had to 'phone her friend to state my case,
And say she's lost control again.
And she showed up all the errors and mistakes,
And said I've lost control again.
But she expressed herself in many different ways,
Until she lost control again.
And walked upon the edge of no escape,
And laughed I've lost control.
She's lost control again.
She's lost control.
She's lost control again.
She's lost control.
I could live a little better with the myths and the lies,
When the darkness broke in, I just broke down and cried.
I could live a little in a wider line,
When the change is gone, when the urge is gone,
To lose control. When here we come.

Asylums with doors open wide,
Where people had paid to see inside,
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says, 'I still exist.'
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
In arenas he kills for a prize,
Wins a minute to add to his life.
But the sickness is drowned by cries for more,
Pray to God, make it quick, watch him fall.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way.
This is the way.
This is the way.
This is the way.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
You'll see the horrors of a faraway place,
Meet the architects of law face to face.
See mass murder on a scale you've never seen,
And all the ones who try hard to succeed.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
And I picked on the whims of a thousand or more,
Still pursuing the path that's been buried for years,
All the dead wood from jungles and cities on fire,
Can't replace or relate, can't release or repair,
Take my hand and I'll show you what was and will be.

Confusion in her eyes that says it all
She's lost control
And she's clinging to the nearest passer by
She's lost control
And she gave away the secrets of her past
And said, "I've lost control again"
And a voice that told her when and where to act
She said, "I've lost control again"
And she turned around and me and took me by the hand
And said, "I've lost control again"
How I'll never know just why or understand
She said, "I've lost control again"
And she screamed out kicking on her side
And said, "I've lost control again"
And seized up on the floor I thought she'd die
She said, "I've lost control "
She's lost control again
She's lost control
She's lost control again
She's lost control
And I had to phone her friend to state my case
And say, "She's lost control again"
And she showed up all the errors and mistakes
And said, "I've lost control again"
And she expressed herself in many different ways
Until she lost control again
And walked upon the edge of no escape
And laughed, "I've lost control"
She's lost control again
She's lost control
She's lost control again

See my true reflection,
Cut off my own connections,
I can see life getting harder,
So sad is this sensation,
Reverse the situation,
I can't see it getting better.
I'll walk you through the heartbreak,
Show you all the out takes,
I can't see it getting higher,
Systematically degraded,
Emotionally a scapegoat,
I can't see it getting better.
Perverse and unrealistic,
Try to make it all sick,
I can't see it getting better,
Hollow now, I'm burned out,
All I need to break out,
I can't see life getting higher,
Love, life, makes you feel higher,
Love, of life, makes you feel higher,
Higher, higher, higher, higher,
Higher, higher, higher, higher,

A legacy so far removed,
One day will be improved.
Eternal rights we left behind,
We were the better kind.
Two the same, set free too,
I always looked to you,
I always looked to you,
I always looked to you.
We fought for good, stood side by side,
Our friendship never died.
On stranger waves, the lows and highs,
Our vision touched the sky,
Immortalists with points to prove,
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
A house somewhere on foreign soil,
Where aging lovers call,
Is this your goal, your final needs,
Where dogs and vultures eat,
Committed still I turn to go.
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
I put my trust in you.
In you. in you. in you.

I've seen the real atrocities,
Buried in the sand,
Stockpiled for safety,
While we stand holding hands.
I'm living in the ice age,
I'm living in the ice age,
Nothing will hold,
Nothing will fit,
Into the cold,
It's not an eclipse.
Living in the ice age,
Living in the ice age,
Living in the ice age.
Searching for another way,
Hide behind the door,
We'll live in holes and disused shafts,
Hopes for little more.
I'm living in the ice age,
I'm living in the ice age,
Nothing will hold,
Nothing will fit,
Into the cold,
No smile on your lips,
Living in the ice age,
Living in the ice age,
Living in the ice age.
Living in the ice age,
Living in the ice age,
Living in the ice age.

All dressed in uniforms so fine,
They drank and killed to pass the time,
Wearing the shame of all their crimes,
With measured steps, they walked in line.
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line.
They carried pictures of their wives,
And numbered tags to prove their lives,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line.
Full of a glory never seen,
They made it through the whole machine,
To never question anymore,
Hypnotic trance, they never saw,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
They walked in line,
Walked in line,

No I don't know just why.
No I don't know just why.
Which way to turn,
I've got this ticket to use.
Through childlike ways rebellion and crime,
To reach this point and retreat back again.
The broken hearts,
All the wheels that have turned,
The memories scarred and the vision is blurred.
No I don't know just why,
Don't know which way to turn,
The best possible use.
Just passing through, 'till we reach the next stage.
But just to where, well it's all been arranged.
Just passing through but the break must be made.
Should we move on or stay safely away?
Through childlike ways rebellion and crime,
To reach this point and retreat back again.
The broken hearts,
All the wheels that have turned,
The memories scarred and the vision is blurred.
Just passing through, 'till we reach the next stage.
But just to where, well it's all been arranged.
Just passing through but the break must be made.

So this is permanence, love's shattered pride
What once was innocence, turned on its side
Grey cloud hangs over me, marks every move
Deep in the memory of what once was love
Oh, how I realised, I wanted time
Put in perspective, tried so hard to find
Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way
Destiny unfolded, watched it slip away
Excessive flashpoints, beyond all reach
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep
Let's take a ride out, see what we can find
A valueless collection of hopes and past desires
I never realised, the lengths I'd have to go
All the darkest corners of a sense I didn't know
Just for one moment I heard someone call
Looked beyond the day in hand, there's nothing there at
Now that I've realised how it's all gone wrong
Got to find some therapy, this treatment takes too long
Deep in the heart of where sympathy held sway

In fear every day, every evening
He calls her aloud from above
Carefully watched for a reason
Painstaking devotion and love
Surrendered to self preservation
From others who care for themselves
A blindness that touches perfection
But hurts just like anything else
Isolation, isolation, isolation
Mother, I tried, please, believe me
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm ashamed of the things I've been put through
I'm ashamed of the person I am
Isolation, isolation, isolation
But if you could just see the beauty
These things I could never describe
This is my one consolation
This is my wonderful prize

To the centre of the city where all roads meet waiting for you
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank searching for you
I was moving through the silence without motion waiting for you
In a room with no window in the corner I found truth
In the shadowplay, acting out your own death, knowing no more
As the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor
Yeah, with cold steel, odour on their bodies made a move to connect
I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all left
I did everything, everything I wanted to
I let them use you for their own ends
To the centre of the city at night, waiting for you

Radio
Live transmission
Radio
Live transmission
Listen to the silence, let it ring on
Eyes, dark grey lenses, frightened of the Sun
We would have a fine time living in the night
Left to blind destruction, waiting for our sight
Sight
We would go on as though nothing was wrong
Hide from these days, we remain all alone
Staying in the same place, just staying out the time
Touching from a distance, further all the time
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio
Well, I could call out when the going gets tough
The things that we've learnt are no longer enough
No language, just sound, is all we need know, to synchronise
Love to the beat of the show
And we could dance
And we could dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio

Walk in silence,
Don't walk away, in silence.
See the danger,
Always danger,
Endless talking,
Life rebuilding,
Don't walk away.
Walk in silence,
Don't turn away, in silence.
Your confusion,
My illusion,
Worn like a mask of self-hate,
Confronts and then dies.
Don't walk away.
People like you find it easy,
Naked to see,
Walking on air.
Hunting by the rivers,
Through the streets,
Every corner abandoned too soon,
Set down with due care.
Don't walk away in silence,

When routine bites hard,
and ambitions are low
And resentment rides high,
but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways,
taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold?
You've turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed
our respect run so dry?
Yet there's still this appeal
that we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again
You cry out in your sleep
all my failings expose
There's a taste in my mouth
as desperation takes hold
Just that something so good
just can't function no more

To the center of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you
I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you
In a room with a window in the corner I found truth
In the shadow play, acting out your own death, knowing no more
As the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor
And with cold steel, odor on their bodies mad a move to connect
But I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all left
I did everything, everything I wanted to
I let them use you, for their own ends
To the center of the city in the night, waiting for you

Made the fatal mistake,
like i did once before,
a tendency just to take,
til the purpose turned sour,
Strain, take the strain, these days we love,
strain, take the strain, these days we love.
Yeah, the only mistake was that you ran away,
avenues lined with trees, strangled words for the day,
yeah, the only mistake, like i made once before,
yeah, the only mistake, could have made it before.
Strain, take the strain, these days we love,
strain, take the strain, these days we love.
And the only mistake, led to rumours unfound,
led to pressures unknown, different feelings and sounds,
yeah, the only mistake, like i made once before,

Hearts fail
Young hearts fail
Anytime, pressurised
Overheat, overtired
Take it quick, take it neat
Clasp your hands, touch your feet
Take it quick, take it neat
Take it quick, take it neat
Hearts fail
Young hearts fail
Anytime whereabouts
On the run, underground
Put your hand where it's safe
Lay your hand where it's safe
Do it again, do it again, again, again
Do it again and again and again
Do it again and again and again
Do it again and again and again
Anytime that's your right
Don't ya wish we do it again?
Overheat, overtired
Don't ya wish we do it again?
Don't ya wish we do it again?
Don't ya wish we do it again?
Anytime that's your right
Don't ya wish we do it again?
Anytime that you're right
Don't ya wish we do it again?
Don't ya wish we do it again?
Bet ya wish we do it again?
Do it again
Do it again

Forced by the pressure
The territories marked
No longer the pleasure
Oh, I've since lost the heart
Corrupted from memory
No longer the power
It's creeping up slowly
That last fatal hour
Oh, I don't know what made me
Or what gave me the right
To mess with your values
And change wrong to right
Please keep your distance
The trail leads to here
There's blood on your fingers
Brought on by fear
I campaigned for nothing
I worked hard for this
I tried to get to you
You treat me like this
It's just second nature
It's what we've been shown
We're living by your rules
That's all that we know
I tried to get to you
I tried to get to you
I tried to get to you

I took a walk yesterday not knowin' where I was goin'
and ended up in a park where I stayed until it turned dark
My eyes looked to the sky where I focused on the space between the stars
Cause it's what makes them beautiful, and I'm feelin' empty
Empty as the gas tank of the car on the side of the road
and just a little hopeless like the people tryin' to wave down some help
Why's a friend so hard to come by these days?
These days you got everything, you got ten thousand songs you can sing
You got a whole lot of people tellin' you which way to go and you go
And you know and you know it's all wrong, popcorn and politics
Armed guards and naked chicks don't mix
The melting pot is boiling over these days
I took a walk yesterday not knowing where I was goin'
not knowin' why I was movin', not knowin' what I was doin'
but tryin' to walk with some purpose, put a little meaning in my stride,
Put a little meaning in my life, why ask why
I look for answers in the sky and if the tree's could only talk to me
I'd know a lot more than I did before, than I did before
Than I did before these days
These days you got everything, you got ten thousand songs you can sing
You got a whole lot of people, tellin' you which way to go and you go
And you know and you know it's all wrong, popcorn and politics
Armed guards and naked chicks don't mix
The melting pot is boiling over these days
These days, these days, these days, these days, these days, these days
I took a walk yesterday not knowin' where I was goin'
It reminded me of how free I am
But what a slave I am to my own discontent
These days you got everything, you got ten thousand songs you can sing
You got a whole lot of people tellin' you which way to go and you go
And you know and you know it's all wrong, popcorn and politics
Armed guards and naked chicks don't mix

3, 5, 0, 1, 2, 5, Go!
I was there in the back stage
when first light came around.
I grew up like a changeling
to win the first time around.
I can see all the weakness
I can pick all the faults
Well, I concede all the faith tests
just to stick in your throats
3 1 g, 3 1 g, 3 1 g
I hung around in your soundtrack
to mirror all that you've done
to find the right side of reason
to kill the three lies for one
I can see all the cold facts
I can see through your eyes
All this talk made no contact
no matter how hard we tried
3 1 g, 3 1 g, 3 1 g
I can still hear the footsteps
I can only see walls
I slid into your man-traps
with no hearing at all
I just see contradiction
had to give up the fight
just to live in the past tense
to make believe you were right
3 1 g, 3 1 g, 3 1 g

Someone take these dreams away,
that point me to another day,
a duel of personalities,
that stretch all true realities.
That keep calling me,
they keep calling me,
keep on calling me,
they keep calling me.
Where figures from the past stand tall,
and mocking voices ring the halls.
imperialistic house of prayer,
conquistadors who took their share.
That keep calling me,
they keep calling me,
keep on calling me,
they keep calling me.
Calling me, calling me, calling me, calling me.
They keep calling me,
keep on calling me,
they keep calling me,

To waste and choose or raise the dead
With pain behind go straight ahead
Room full of people grouping as one
I can't break out now
The time just won't come
To waste and choose which way to go
Decide for me, please let me know
Looked in the mirror saw I was wrong
If I could get back to where I belong
Where I belong
To waste and choose which way to go
I paused for one whom signs forbore
If we were immortal we would not bear
Washed up on the beat here
Struggle for air
I see you face still in my window
Tormented clouds won't set me free
Something must break now
This life isn't mine
Something must break now
Wait for the time

Here, here,
everything is by design,
everything is by design.
Here, here,
everything is kept inside.
so take a chance and step outside,
your hopes, your dreams, your paradise.
heroes, idols cracked like ice.
Here, here,
everything is kept inside.
so take a chance and step outside.
pure frustration face to face.
a point of view creates more waves,
so take a chance and step outside.
Take a chance and step outside.
lose some sleep and say you tried.
meet frustration face to face.
a point of view creates more waves.
So lose some sleep and say you tried.
so lose some sleep and say you tried.
so lose some sleep and say you tried.
so lose some sleep and say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
say you tried.
yeah, lose some sleep and say you tried.
yeah, lose some sleep and say you tried.
yeah, lose some sleep and say you tried.

Made the fatal mistake,
like i did once before,
a tendency just to take,
til the purpose turned sour,
Strain, take the strain, these days we love,

Yeah, the only mistake was that you ran away,

And the only mistake, led to rumours unfound,
led to pressures unknown, different feelings and sounds,
yeah, the only mistake, like i made once before,

I walked through the city limits
Someone talked me in to try to do it
Attracted by some force within it
Had to close my eyes to get close to it
Around a corner where a prophet lay
Saw the place where she had a room to stay
A wire fence where the children play
Saw the bed where the body lay
And I was looking for a friend of mine
And I had no time to waste
Yeah, looking for some friends of mine
The cars screeched, hear the sound on dust
Heard a noise, just a car outside
Metallic blue turned red with rust
Pulled in close by the building's side
In a group, all forgotten youth
Had to think, collect my senses now
Are turned on to a knife edged view
Find some places where my friends don't know
And I was looking for a friend of mine
And I had no time to waste
Yeah, looking for some friends of mine
Down the dark streets, the houses looked the same
Getting darker now, faces look the same
And I walked round and round, nail me to a train
No stomach, torn apart, had to think again
Trying to find a clue, trying to find a way to get out
Trying to move away, had to move away and keep out
Four, twelve windows, ten in a row
Behind a wall, well I looked down low
The lights shined like a neon show
Inserted deep, felt a warmer glow
No place to stop, no place to go
No time to lose, had to keep on going
I guess they died some time ago
I guess they died some time ago
And I was looking for a friend of mine
And I had no time to waste

Asylums with doors open wide
Where people had paid to see inside
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says I still exist
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
In arenas he kills for a prize
Wins a minute to add to his life
But the sickness is drowned by cries for more
Pray to God make it quick, watch him fall
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way
This is the way
This is the way
This is the way
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
You'll see the horrors of a faraway place
Meet the architects of law face to face
See mass murder on a scale you've never seen
And all the ones who try hard to succeed
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
This is the way, step inside
And I picked on the whims of a thousand or more
Still pursuing the path that's been buried for years
All the dead wood from jungles and cities on fire
Can't replace or relate, can't release or repair

So long sitting here
Didn't hear the warning
Waiting for the tape to run
We've been moving around in different situations
Knowing that the time would come
Just to see you torn apart
Witness to your empty heart
I need it
I need it
I need it
Through the wire screen, the eyes of those standing outside looked in
At her as into the cage of some rare creature in a zoo
In the hand of one of the assistants she saw the same instrument
Which they had that morning inserted deep into her body.
She shuddered instinctively.
No life at all in the house of dolls
No love lost.
No love lost
You've been seeing things
In darkness, not in learning
Hoping that the truth will pass
No life underground, wasting never changing
Wishing that this day won't last
To never see you show your age
To watch until the beauty fades
I need it
I need it
I need it
Two-way mirror in the hall
They like to watch everything you do
Transmitters hidden in the walls
So they know everything you say is true
Turn it on
Don't turn it on

Born from some mother's womb
Just like any other room
Made a promise for a new life
Made a victim out of your life
When your time's on the door
And it drips to the floor
And you feel you can touch
All the noise is too much
And the seeds that are sown
Are no longer your own
Just a minor operation
To force a final ultimatum
Thousand words are spoken loud
Reach the dumb to fool the crowd
When you walk down the street
And the sound's not so sweet
And you wish you could hide
Maybe go for a ride
To some peep show arcade
Where the future's not made
A nightmare situation
Infiltrate imagination
Smacks of past Holy wars
By the wall with broken laws
The leaders of men
Born out of your frustration
The leaders of men
Just a strange infatuation
The leaders of men
Made a promise for a new life
No saviour for our sakes
To twist the internees of hate
Self induced manipulation

Don't speak of safe Messiahs
A failure of the Modern Man
To the centre of all life's desires
As a whole not an also ran
Love in a hollow field
Break the image of your father's son
Drawn to an inner feel
He was thought of as the only one
He was thought of as the only one
He no longer denies
All the failures of the Modern Man
No, no, no, he can't pick sides
Sees the failures of the Modern Man
Wise words and sympathy
Tell the story of our history
New strength gives a real touch
Sense and reason make it all too much
With a strange fatality
Broke the spirits of a lesser man
Some other race can see
In his way he was the only one
In his way he was the only one
He no longer denies
All the failures of the Modern Man
No, no, no, he can't pick sides
Sees the failures of the Modern Man
Now that it's time to decide
In his time he was a total man
Taken from Caesar's side
Kept in silence just to prove who's wrong
He no longer denies
All the failures of the Modern Man
No, no, no, he can't pick sides
Sees the failures of the Modern Man

Moved in a hired car and I find no way to run
Adds every moment longer had no time for fun
Just something that I knew I had to do
But through it all I left my eyes on you
I had an impulse to clear it all away
Oh I used the tactics make everybody pay
Just something that I knew I had to do
But through it all I kept my eyes on you
Oh I keep it all clean I've paid the graces there
No kings of misuse no sellers of flesh
Just something that I knew I had to do
But through it all I kept my eyes on you
Yeah through it all I kept my eyes on you

I've been waiting for a guide to come and take me by the hand
Could these sensations make me feel the pleasures of a normal man?
New sensations bear the innocence, leave them for another day
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, take the shock away
It's getting faster, moving faster now, it's getting out of hand
On the tenth floor, down the backstairs into no man's land
Lights are flashing, cars are crashing, getting frequent now
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, let it out somehow
What means to you, what means to me and we will meet again
I'm watching you, I watch it all, I take no pity from your friends
Who is right, who can tell and who gives a damn right now?
Until' the spirit, new sensation takes hold, then you know
Until' the spirit, new sensation takes hold, then you know
Until' the spirit, new sensation takes hold, then you know
I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling
I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling
Feeling
Feeling
Feeling

I traveled far and wide through many different times, what did you see there?
I saw the saints with their toys, what did you see there?
I saw all knowledge destroyed
I traveled far and wide through many different times
I traveled far and wide to prisons of the cross, what did you see there?
The power and glory of sin, what did you see there?
The blood of Christ on their skins
I traveled far and wide through many different times
I traveled far and wide where unknown martyrs died, what did you see there?
I saw the one-sided trials, what did you see there?
I saw the tears as they cried
They had tears in their eyes
Tears in their eyes
Tears in their eyes

So this is permanence - love's shattered pride
What once was innocence, turned on its side
Grey cloud hangs over me - marks every move
Deep in the memory, what once was love
Oh how I realised how I wanted time
Put into perspective - tried so hard to find
Just for one moment I thought I'd found my way
Destiny unfolded - I watched it slip away
Excessive flashpoints - beyond all reach
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep
Let's take a ride out - see what we can find
A valueless collection of hopes and past desires
I never realised the lengths I'd have to go
All the darkest corners of a sense I didn't know
Just for one moment I heard somebody call
Looked beyond the day in hand - there's nothing there at all
Now that I've realised how it's all gone wrong
Got to find some therapy - this treatment takes too long
Deep in the heart of where sympathy held sway

Guess your dreams always end
They don't rise up, just descend
But I don't care anymore
I've lost the will to want more
I'm not afraid, not at all
I watch them all as they fall
But I remember
When we were young
Those with habits of waste
Their sense of style and good taste
Of makin' sure you were right
Hey, don't you know you were right?
I'm not afraid anymore
I keep my eyes on the door
But I remember
Tears of sadness for you
More upheaval for you
Reflects a moment in time
A special moment in time
Yeah, we wasted our time
We didn't really have time
But we remember
When we were young
And all God's angels beware
And all you judges beware
Sons of chance take good care
For all the people not there
I'm not afraid anymore
I'm not afraid anymore
I'm not afraid anymore

There Is Zyclon B In Here

that crucial filament is all but spent
and soon it will be dark in my basement
my heart is waxing the slick floor again
hoping i'll slip, and fall in love
well, she gave me the choice
to remain and rejoice or to recoil and rebel
well, papa, this gravity attack
yeah, it's a gravity attack
and i can't seem to carry, much less bury the past
well, your ex-girlfriend said i was a terrible mess
yeah, she's got a real good head on her shoulders
when the singer spoke and confessed
he didn't really smoke cigarettes,
she said her teenage brother smouldered
on a hotbed of coal in a sterile white room
underneath that joy division poster
he moaned papa, he moaned papa,
sometimes i gotta vent my spleen!
sometimes i gotta vent my spleen
when i get shattered in the heart
and scattered in the brain
well, all the medicine in these sermons
still can't keep his brazen nose from turning
and salvation, it may come free of charge
but faith always costs him something
they say there's nothing as sacred
as the blood between brothers
when it's pricked from their thumbs
and exchanged beneath the covers
well, papa, my brother is gone!
yeah, my brother is gone!
so would you tell me now how it is
i'm supposed to get along?
well, you asked for a chorus but you got a refrain
yeah, it's another sad song that moves like a train
you can't whistle to it
but you can fast-forward through it
flick it off your shoulder like dead skin
they say my head on a plate
may curve the debate
about the unbearable high cost of living
but papa, everything falls apart!
everything falls apart
and the grass will grow
