What is this phase that I am going through
O these precious years
Please take my hand and let me breathe again
Young depressive tears
We stumble blindly chasing something new and something sinful
You take my time you live my life for me
What have I done to rate this penalty
You suck me dry

The lights went out (The last fuse blew).
The clocks all stopped (It can't be true).
The program's wrong (What can we do?).
The printout's blocked (It relied on you).

The turbine cracked up.
The buildings froze up.
The system choked up.

[Chorus:]
See the man on the 'phone,
With a gun in his hand,
Sipping courage from a crystal cup.
He's a man in the wrong,
With a gun at his head,
Pushes on and now it's time to cut and run.
Time, passing so slowly.

Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Living out a memory of a love that died

It's five and I'm driving home again
It's hard to believe that it's my last time
The man on the wireless cries again

Dangerous rhythm
Dangerous rhythm
Dangerous rhythm in the air

Stranger to stranger
We're both dressed for danger
Something is generating here
Oh, take off your halo

Running down an empty street
Perhaps it was a railway station
Smell of ??? cologne
The sound of a celebration

Chorus:

Oh-oh-oh dislocation

You stand out of the crowd
You don't follow the shadows
You've given me solid ground
You rise above
All that surrounds you
And I can't believe what I've found

Chorus:

Somehow we drifted off too far
Communicate like distant stars
Splintered voices down the 'phone
The sunlit dust, the smell of roses drifts, oh no
Someone waits behind the door
Hiroshima mon amour

Riding inter-city trains

Give us this day, all that You showed me
The Power and the Glory
Till my Kingdom comes...

Give us this day, all that You showed me
The Power and the Glory
Till my Kingdom comes
Give me all the Storybook told me

I see it every day
As children play
There's a future, watching, waiting
No-one can deny
The reasons why
We are hurting
Much more than believing

I found the bones of all your ghosts
Locked in the wishing well
While birdsong gourmets dragged empty nets
I slumbered in my shell

In mitternacht, die mensch-maschine
Kissed me on my eyes
I rose and left the fire-ladies

Talking in the window as the light fades
I heard my voice break just for a moment
Talking by the window as the light fades
I felt the floor change into an ocean

We'll never leave here, never
Let's stay in here forever
And when the streets are quiet

Standing on my own
It didn't mean that much to me
I thought I had it all
I didn't see the mystery
I stood the test of time
I took the step to find
Love's great adventure

I thought you knew me by now
Let the lights go on roaring
Someone's hand on my shoulder
Then whip past the turning point
There's time for the taking

[Chorus:]
Maximum acceleration

[Chorus]
A life as a stranger,
Hands through a wire,
Forbidden desires,
Are mine for life.

Looking from a spiral staircase,
At a man with a suitcase,

I found the perfect picture, of a perfect stranger.
It looked as if, it were taken in the forties sometime,
Judging by the style.

He could be a killer or a blind man with a cane,
Perhaps he died in a car crash, years ago.
Right now, it's impossible to tell.

In a quiet street washed by the rain, the room within the home.
A lonely man sits cheek to cheek, with unique designs in chrome.
The mellow years have long gone by, but now he sits alone.
He has a brand new radio, but never turns it on.

Chorus:

New Europeans.

If the stack is high against you
And the hammer's coming down
And the time that's yours lies heavy in your hands
Oh my sentimental friend
The fast much reach an end

Lying face down on the cold stone
And they give their all to you

We were so young, we were too vain.
Dance in the dark, sing in the rain.
Time on our hands, hope in our hearts.

Chorus:

We were talking, passing strangers.
Moments caught across an empty room.

Suddenly you find
Yourself waiting for a long time
Your back's to the wall
But now you must go

Painting scenes from magazines
Sucking breath from nicotine
Standing tall against the crowd we sigh

Visions of men never known
Never seen, never heard, never shown
Characters lying in wait
Responsible figures of fate
With memories and faces as long as their hate

Paths and the angles of light
Find their way into my eye

All the boys are wearing blue tonight.
We'll thrive, we'll dive, how can we lose?
All the strangers walk like you tonight.
So tall, we fall for every move.

We'll laugh and talk,
Don't stop for breath,
In these our private lives.

We sit and watch these lifeless forms
Stark and petrified
The high suspense of an empty stage drawing in clutching to its breast
With murmured words we sigh and focus on the main facade

Beyond the hard reluctant windows
News from magazines
We wrote their names on books we'd borrowed as if to bring us closer still

Reap the wild wind. (Repeat 3 times)

A finger points to show a scene. (Take my hand. Take my hand.)
Another face where mine had been. (Take my hand. Take my hand.)
Another footstep where I once walked. (Take my hand)
Take it all.

Chorus:

Moments like this
I wish that you were mine
And I find that all the tears that you have cried were mine

How I long to hear you laughing now
And to feel the sun come breaking through the clouds

Chorus:

Rockwrok
Rockwrok
Rockwrok
Rockwrokrockwrok
Blast off, the walls are down
Cast off, the wolves are out
Come on, there's no time, I can't wait
Rip off my clothes, I'm stripping yours

Serenade, in rhythm and swing
Serenade, the gift that we bring
Serenade, youth runs wild with the beat in their hearts
Dance a wild dance, be torn apart

Voices ringing in their heads
Their crashing hands in time
In sequence and in rhyme

Rolling and falling, I'm choking and calling,
Name after name after name.

Sleepwalk. (Repeat 3 times)

Naked and bleeding, the streetlights stray by me,
Hurting my eyes with their glare.

No reply
I'm trying hard to somehow frame a reply
Pictures, I've got pictures, and I run them in my head
When I can't sleep at night
Looking out at the white world and the moon
I feel a soft exchange taking place
Merging with the people on the brains (?)
Whirling my face in conversation

Some of them are changing day to day
Some of them flicker then they fade
Some of them are triggered off by any crazy thing

Some of them are all that's left
Some of them are just dead regrets
Some of them are shining out through everything I see

Check out some memories I don't recognize
Another country and another life
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

I find, I'm strolling on a distant shore
To meet someone I've never seen before
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Light comes through a crack in the door
I tape up the windows once more
Tight like a cold hand of steel
Don't fear the stranger within
Hands that petrify in the air
Eyes catching things never there
Sweet tension caught on my breath
Don't fear the stranger within

When everyone else is uncertain
And walls are closing in
There's no-one to hear you
No-one at all
Don't tell me what to believe in
Wake up and start again
Be part of the vision
Be part of it all

Reach for the stars
(Kudos is lost)
The space race
Man on the moon
(Won't tear me apart)
Your future

Curiosity staring out

Try to understand
As I take you by the hand
Side by side
We'll begin again
Find a future in this land
If we try
And as we come together
We're guided by the light

The sound is on the visions move
The image dance starts once again
They shuffle with a bovine grace and glide in syncopation
Just living lines from books we've read
With atmospheres of days gone by
With paper smiles
The screenplay calls a message for the nation

Native these words seem to me
All speech directed to me
I've heard them once before
I know that feeling

Stranger emotions in mind
Changing the contours I find
I've seen them once before

Maximize your potential
Utilize the influential
Come take my hand
I`ll make you a true believer
Fantasize you're in heaven
Realize your religion
Fall into line
Pay for your redemption

We walked in the cold air.
Freezing breath on a window pane,
Lying and waiting.
The man in the dark in a picture frame,
So mystic and soulful.
A voice reaching out in a piercing cry,
It stays with you until

Move on as we step in time
Strange words from the other line
Edging forward, feeling strong
Syncopate with the marching song
Thoughts and dreams flick across your mind
Fade away as you wait for your time to go
You're waiting, waiting, waiting
Looking back as you head for home

Chorus :

We came to dance.
Making moves from a passion play.
The ties that bind us just slip away.
We came to dance.
The piper calls out a different rhyme.
He cracks the whip and we step in time.

The words played on around our heads
Perhaps we went too far
We'll soldier on until the end again

This clutching hand around my hand
So pitiful and frail
Makes bleeding hearts begin to beat again

(And we talked) Just the two of us
(All the time) Nothing serious
(We pretend) Time is on our side
('Til the end) When the scream subsides

Yes, we had it all, had the key gripped in our hands
We could see the fall as a martyr understands
When the chorus calls there's no room for hope inside

When pale turns to pink, with the soft unnerving ease
And all you've built around, may just tumble to the ground
Will you stand or fall, with your future in another's hands
Will you stand or fall, when your life is not your own

When white turns to red in the not too distant days
Will forced misery, be the life you have to lead?
Will you stand or fall, with your children in another's world

The Jekyll-Hyde of you
I can't survive the tide of you
The vicious style of love, the whining
Pits and pendulums of lying
I don't see how you survive in
Hard-line worlds you're advertising
Sneaky features, facing, waiting
City sex is so frustrating
