Telekon

Here we play games
Like turning men into boys
And everyone must cry or love

Recall 'my circuit'
Recall 'i'm not-you are'
Remember that i moved too soon

Corridor empty
Time to call in the stage
A game called echo

Now i ask questions
I get so nervous of
A game called echo

We rename vehicles
You rename heroes
I switch to auto

You are reception
I can take it or leave
Do i need permission to stop?

There's nothing here but us
There's nothing here but us

Remember, i was vapour
Remember, i was just like you
Remember, i was liquid
Remember, i was someone too

Remember, i need others
Remember, i need oxygen
Remember, i need lovers
Remember, i need to forget

Chorus

Remember, i am human
Remember, i feel just like you
Remember, i had reasons
Remember, i had friends like you

Remember, i grow tired
Remember, i could end all this
Remember, i have memories
Remember, i need to forget

Instrumental

Send in eyes
Thought's of crashing, all those pictures
Send in thoughts of john the god

Send in dreams
Lovers on corners, clean my sheets
Your only chance is break the state

We are clean
Don't ask, i'm an agent

Send in change
Secretaries, nothing more
You can be replaced you know

Send in chance
Bad conditions, talk of leaving
Talk of walking out on me

Send in you
Send in pain, send in lies
Send in words that i believe

Send in you
Just watch the face, your sure to see
Something, give this game away

Send in you
Get her out, get her out
Call me, just don't say the name

We are young we can break
Watch us fall
We can take some train
Down to the sea
We are glass, we are glass
We are real you can touch
Just for now
And then say
'hey you, which way is down'
We are glass, we are glass

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

They run fast
Impressions of the floors inviting
Stay with me, stay with me
They run past
With telephones they scream
Well would you turn all this down
Turn all this down

You are replaced you are you
And our dreams are real
And dreams are all we need
We are glass, we are glass

We slip down
And old eyes don't cry for me
Cause i doubt i'm and i doubt you
And never never going to doubt
We are glass, we are glass

They run fast
Impressions of the floors inviting
Stay with me, stay with me
They run past
With telephones they scream
Well would you turn all this down
Turn all this down

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
Rewind, cry
Well it's somewhere to go
Well it's somewhere to go

Tell me of your pain
Love it, love it
Show me the new way
Love it, love it
It's so unusual
But all i find is a reason to die
A reason to die

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
Until you tear yourself apart

But i don't love you
No i don't love you
Do you dream?

Back to surveillance
Open eyes and wash out 'tear'
A sign that says 'no exit'
And 'no-one can save you here'

I could talk about my programme
Where everything is white
I could specialise in pictures
Where nothing's ever right

But i don't love you
No i don't love you
Do you dream?

We are just sound
We are just noise
And we are all here to lie
Do you dream?

You sleep by windows
You sleep by windows

Do you cry?
Do you dream?
Do you?
Did you?

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

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


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


Oh, look, there's a rape machine
I'd go outside if it looks the other way
You wouldn't believe
The things they do


Down in the park
Where the chant is "death, death, death"
Until the sun cries morning
Down in the park with friends of mine


"we are not lovers
We are not romantics
We are here to serve you"
A different face but the words never change

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

Remind me to smile
You know, 'the old friends' line
It gets so i feel like
I'm in this cold, glass, cage

I've got the horrors
Check, over my shoulder
I punch the air and fight but
No-one's there

You you - oh no
Old scars - don't show
We fall - you see
Crawl crawl - in love
I dive - so clean
Young things - don't scream
Toys toys - so far
Boys boys - you are

(chorus)

Get off the car
Get off the phone
Move from my window, leave me alone

Keep your revivals
Keep your conventions
Keep all your fantasies that's all we are
