3 - 5 - 0 - 1 - 2 - 5 - Go!
I was there in the backstage
when first light came around
I grew up like a changeling
to wait the first time around
I could see all the weakness --
I could pick all the faults
But I concede all the faith tests --
just a stick in your throat
3 - 1 - G (3)

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 could see all the cold facts --
I could see through your eyes
All this don't make no contact
no matter how hard I try
3 - 1 - G (3)

I could still hear the footsteps --
I could see only walls
I say 'hey' for you mad traps --
hearing no at all
I could see contradiction --
I could give up the fight
Just to live in the past tense --
To make believe you were right!
3 - 1 - G (3)
3 - 5 - 0 - 1 - 2 - 5
+Leaders of Men
------- -- ---
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 you trip on 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 the final ultimatum
A thousand words are spoken loud
Reach that gun to fool the crowds
When you walk down the street and the
sound that's so sweet
And you wish you could hide --
Maybe go for a ride
To some picture arcade --
Where the future's not made
A nightmare situation --
Infiltrate imagination
Smacks of past holy wars --
Fight a war 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 crush the atrocities of hate
Self-induced manipulation
To crush all thoughts
of mass-salvation
+Digital
-------
Feel it closing in, feel it closing in
A fear of whom I call,
hearing someone call
I feel it closing in, I feel it closing in
Day in, day out (6)

I feel it closing in,
As patterns seem to form
I feel it cold and warm
As shadows start to fall
I feel it closing in, I feel it closing in
Day in, day out (5)

I'd have the world to just see
whatever happens to my decorum
And then just fade away
I see you fade away, don't ever fade away
I need you here today
Don't ever fade away (4)
Fade away (7)
+Autosuggestion
--------------
Here, here, everything is my design
Everything is my design
Here, here, everything is kept inside
So take a chance and step outside
Your hopes, your dreams, your paradise
Heroes, idols crept like ice

Here, here, everything is kept inside
So take a chance and step outside
Feel frustration face to face
A point of view creates more waste
So take a chance and step outside

Take a chance and step outside
Lose some sleep and say you've tried
Meet frustrations face to face
A point of view creates more waste
So lose some sleep
and say you've tried (4)
Say you've tried (11)
Yeah, lose some sleep
and say you've tried (4)
+Transmission
------------
Radio -- live transmission -- radio
live transmission
Listen to the silence, let it ring on
Eyes dark, relentless, frightened of the sun
We would have a fine time living in the night
Be left a blind destruction,
Waiting for our sight
We would go on as though nothing was
wrong
Hide from these days to remain all alone
Staying in the same place,
just staring at the tide
Touching from a distance, further all the time

Dance, dance, dance, dance,
dance to the radio (4)
Well I could call out when the going
gets tough
The things we've learned 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 -- dance, dance,
dance, dance, to the radio (4)
+She's Lost Control
----- ---- -------
Confusion in her eyes that says it all --
She's lost control
And she's clinging to the nearest passerby
She's lost control
And she gave away the secrets of her past
And said "I've lost control again."
And heard the voice that told her
when and where to act
She said "I've lost control again".

And she turned to me 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 died
She said "I've lost control again"
She's lost control again --
she's lost control (2)

Well I had to phone her friend to state
her 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'd lost control again
And walked upon the edge of no escape
and laughed "I've lost control again"
She's lost control again,
she's lost control (2)

I could live a little there
In the midst of the light
When the darkness closed in
I could have broke down and cried
I could live a little
In the white of light
When the change is gone
When the caring's gone
To lose control --
when the caring's gone
+Incubation (instrumental)
----------
+Dead Souls
---- -----
Someone take these dreams away
That point me to another day
A duel of personalities
That stretch all true reality
And keep calling me
They keep calling me
Keep on calling me
They keep calling me

When figures from the past stand tall
And mocking voices ring the hall
Imperialistic house of prayer
Conquistadores who took
their share
And keep calling me
They keep calling me
Keep on calling me
They keep calling me

Calling me, calling me (2)
They keep calling me
Keep on calling me
The keep calling me (2)
+Atmosphere
----------
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
Aching to see -- walking on air
Hunting by rivers, through the streets,
every corner abandoned to soon
Set down with due care
don't walk away -- in silence --
Don't walk away
+Love Will Tear Us Apart
---- ---- ---- -- -----
When the routine bites hard
and ambitions are low
And the 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 (4)

Why is the bedroom so cold
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 (4)

Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings expose?
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just can't function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart
again (4)
+No Love Lost
-- ---- ----
So long sitting here --
Didn't here the warning
Waiting for the tape to run
We've been moving round in different
situations
Knowing that the time would come
Knowing that the time would come
Just to see you torn apart --
witness to your empty heart
I need it (3)

Through the wire screen the eyes
of those standing outside
locked in at her as if 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 (3)

You've been seeing things in darkness --
Running, learning
Hoping that the truth will pass
No life underground
Wasting, never changing
Wishing that this thing won't last
To never see you show your age
To watch the feeling fades
I need it
+Failures
--------
Don't speak a false facade
Failure of modern man
To the centre of our face he dived
Has a hold on a nose of red
Grew up in a hall of steel
Made the image of your fathers son
Not to an inner feel
He was thought of as the only one

He no longer denies --
All the failures of the modern man
He no longer decides --
Sees the failures of the modern man
Wise words and sympathy
Tell the story of our history
New strength gives a real touch
Sense of reasons make it all too much
With a strange fatality
Fade the spirits of a lesser man
Some other race could see
In his way he was the only one

He no longer denied --
All the failures of the modern man
No, no his God decides --
See the failures of the modern man
Now that it's right to decide
In his time he was the total man
Taken from Caesar's side
Kept in silence just to prove
us wrong
No, no his God decides
All the failures of the modern man
No, no longer denies
All the failures of the modern man
+Glass
-----
Hearts fail -- young hearts fail
Anytime -- that's allright
Over here -- all the time
Take it quick -- take it neat
Cross your hands -- twist your feet
Take it quick -- take it neat (2)
Hearts fail -- young hearts fail
Anytime -- whereabout?
On the run -- on the ground
Put your hand -- where it's safe
Lay your hand -- where it's safe
And do it again
Do it again and again and again (4)

Anytime -- that's allright
Told ya we should do it again
Over here -- all the time
Told ya we should do it again (3)
Anytime -- that's allright
Told ya we should do it again
Told ya we should do it again
I betcha we should do it again
Do it again (5)
+From Safety to Where...?
---- ------ -- ---------
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 child-like ways, rebellion and crime
To reach this point
and retreat back again
The broken hearts, all the wheels
that are turned
The memory's scarred
and the vision blurred

No, I don't know which way,
Don't know which way to turn
The best possible use -- Just passing
through 'till we reach the next stage
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 child-like ways, rebellion and crime
To reach this point
and retreat back again
The broken hearts, all the wheels
that are turned
The memory's scarred
and the vision 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
Should we move on
or stay safely away?
+Novelty
-------
When the 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 your back
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 all 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 your backs
and pretend you knew about
all the things we were gonna do
What ya gonna do, what ya gonna do
When its over?
+Komakino
--------
This is the hour when the mysteries emerge
Strangeness so hard to reflect
A moment so moving goes straight
to your heart
Condition that's never been met
The attraction that's held like a wake
deep inside
Something I'll never forget
Pattern is set, the reaction will start
Complete but rejected too soon
Looking ahead in the grip of each tear
Impulse that blinds every move
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 are right,
and the answers don't fit
Into my way of paying, into my way
of paying
+These Days
----- ----
Morning seems strange, almost out of place
Searched hard for you and your special ways
These days -- please stay
Spent all my time,
learnt to kill is hard
Took threats and abuse
till I'd lived apart
Can you stay -- for these days?
These days -- these days
Use hard-worn deception to get away
Broken heart romance
to make it pay
These days -- these days
We'll tread through it all
This modern age
Take care of it all now these debts
are paid
Can you stay -- for these days?
