Berserker

Gary Numan Berserker Lyrics
1.This Is New Love

We are strangers here
I suppose
We are not welcome
Or so i'm told.
We are not old friends
But believe this,
We can be nightmares.

Picture the man when the heartbeat stops
This is new love.

We are the hunters,
So one by one
You know we'll find you.

Picture the man when the heartbeat stops

These boys of passion
Will rule the world
Put their fingers in a dyke
'well you know it's what she needed'.
These boys of passion
With cruel idiot smiles
Fight for you.
You know, they said so.

Cold fascination
With dead sound.
Oh god let me sleep
Forever.

Picture the man when the heartbeat stops.


2.The Secret

We are, we are
The machines
We'll play 'games' for you.
Come inside
You're welcome to choose

She is a new fascination,
The cold face of love.
He is a puppet who dances and
Screams with 'the fear'.
We'll show you religion
We'll show you a new god
We'll show you the secret of love/fear

Roll up, roll up
We are clean
We serve you, just for now
We are friends
They call me 'the priest'

Welcome, welcome
We are good
No-one cries for you
We are kind
You'll stay here forever.

Welcome
We are good
We are kind
We are clean
We are friends
Come inside
We are the machines
Welcome.


3.Cold Warning

Something is here
I can hear them breathe
Something is here
And i'm scared
Beg to your gods
But i don't believe
Nothing in here
Can help me now

Cold warning comes for me

Something is here
And i've got the nerves
Something is here
And i'm cold
I'm so lonely
Do you know how it feels?
All i can do
Now is lose

Cold warning comes for me


4.Pump It Up

Send in someone else
I'm tired of romance
They call me 'the game'
And anyone can play.

Won't you come in and play with me?

They call this 'the house'
We have need without feeling
Do you want the shame?
I can't escape from the sound

Won't you come in and play with me?

My heart beats slowly
I'll tear your heart to pieces
I'm the face of love
And this love burns cold

Won't you come in and play with me?


5.The God Film

She's like death on two legs
She is raw pink shame
Please stop the god film
It's all wrong
But i'm not to blame

These boys of image
Carry banners
Believe in slogans
Kill policeman
Say it's 'freedom'
Say it's 'goodness'
Say it's 'peaceful'
I'm lonely
I'm feeling down (everyone i know has been and gone)

It's such a sick picture
She says 'i cure everyone'
I'm alone in a corner
I won't ever forgive
I must be broken
I don't know
Who on earth can i blame?


6.A Child With The Ghost

Nothing i can say
Can make your picture talk
I feel so tired and
Nothing i can do
Will make your picture move
I feel so helpless but
I can feel
A child with the ghost here
You let your heart slip away

If i had one wish
I'd wish to talk with you
I have some questions
Things only you could know
If i had one wish
I'd wish to talk with you
Nothing you can feel
Can feel as cold as this
I'll sing this song and
I'll say goodbye forever

I wonder
If god is all they say
I can't believe in such things.
I suppose
Some games are hard to lose
But you don't have to play 'cos
I can feel
A child with the ghost here
You let your heart slip away


7.The Hunter

I'm in a big clean room
There's blood on my shirt
I'm in bad shape from the crash

Now i know it's all over
Now i know it's all over you
Something's wrong.
Now i know it's all over
Now i know the hunter's you

Oh you have the face
But i have the pictures
A secondhand love in a dying machine

This game turns me cold
I could show you some things
A child with a ghost in her eyes cries for me

We break out
And we break out hungry
We're looking for the priest
And we're looking for you

I can't believe the noise
There's nothing i can do
We'll never get out of here alive

Something's wrong
I can't believe it.


8.Berserker

And this is my story.
My face, the picture's changed
Do you remember me
Now i'm fighting to breathe
It's been such a long time

Do you want to come
Do you want to come
Do you want to come with me now

Nothing here for me now
I can't believe the noise
We'll take this place apart
I won't be here for long
I know they'll find me soon

But now the weakness comes
I'll question everything
I'll trade new dreams for old
I've been waiting for you
I've waited far too long.


9.Empty Bed, Empty Heart

(***?) me down
How cold love can be
I've nothing more to loose
I'm trapped inside and dying
I don't sleep without you
Empty bed-empty heart
And i'll wait for you
Years and years and years
How strange love can be
It bends and tears and screams
I'm lonely here inside my (head?)
I don't live without you
There's nothing i can do
I'm waiting always waiting
I'm waiting always and old
I'll leave you now
Alone forever
You're now gone
You're now gone forever
(you know i'm ****?)


10.My Dying Machine

Why give orders?
Why give speeches?

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?
And 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?
And 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.


11.Here Am I

I'll say good-bye for now
All this love burns away
Did you love for long?
I'll let the boys come in
They'll crawl for you
Here am i
Not talking
Here am i
Not sleeping
Here am i
There's no more i can do
Here am i
There's no more i can say
Here am i
Not talking
Here am i
Not sleeping
Here am i
There's no more i can do
Here am i
There's no more i can say to you
I'm so tired of this
Please send in someone else
You play games with me
But did you win?
How do you feel?
