My Dying Machine - Gary Numan

Why give orders?

Why give speeches?

No more questions

No more answers

All that’s left is the fear

No more questions

No more answers

All that’s left is the fear

I can feel they’re here

I can feel the cold

I can’t fight for long

This machine runs down

If I had a picture

I could say it’s all for you

Why give orders?

Why make speeches?

Give me a reason to stay

This dying machine

I can hear me scream

I’ve nowhere to run

I’ve nowhere to hide

I can only wonder

I can only wonder why

Why give orders?

Why make speeches?

Give me a reason to die

I can only wonder

I can only wonder why

I can only wonder

I can only wonder why

Why give orders?

Why make speeches?

Give me a reason to die

Why give orders?

Why make speeches?

Give me a reason to die

This shape comes apart

Everything breaks down

And me, I’m trapped inside

And here inside it ends

There’s nothing I can do

There’s nothing I can do now

If I had a picture

I could say it’s all for you

I can only wonder

I can only wonder why

Why give orders?

Why make speeches?

Give me a reason to die

Why give orders?

Why make speeches?

Give me a reason to die

Why give orders?

Why make speeches?

Give me a reason to die

Why give orders?

Why make speeches?

Give me a reason to die
