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 - And seized up on the floor,
I thought she'd die - She said I've lost control. - she's lost con-
trol again - She's lost control - She's lost control again - She's
lost control - Well I had to 'phone her friend to state my 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 lost control
again - And walked upon the edge of no escape - And laughed
I've lost control - She's lost control again - She's lost control -
She's lost control again - She's lost control.
Shadowplay 1979 (cd1#09 & cd3#07)
To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you -
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for
you - I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting
for you - In a room with a window in the corner I found truth -
In the shadowplay, acting out your own death, knowing no more
- As the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor
- And with cold steel, odour on their bodies made a move to
connect - But I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all
left - I did everything, everything I wanted to - I let them use
you for their own ends - To the centre of the city in night,
waiting for you - To the centre of the city in the night, waitin
for you.

Wilderness 1979 (cd1#10 & cd4#05)
I travelled far and wide through many different times - What did
you see there? - I saw the saints with their toys - What did you
see there? - I saw all knowledge destroyed - I travelled far and
wide through many different times - I travelled far and wide
through prisons of the cross - What did you see there? -
The power and glory of sin - What did you see there? -
The blood of Christ on their skins - I travelled far and wide
through many different times - I travelled far and wide and
unknown martyrs died - What did you see there? - I saw the
one sided trials - What did you see there? - I saw the tears as
they cried - They had tears in their eyes - Tears in their eyes -
Tears in their eyes - Tears in their eyes.
Interzone 1978 (cd1#11, cd3#06 & cd4#08)
I walked through the city limits - Someone talked me in to do it
- Attracted by some force within it - Had to close my eyes to
get close to it - Around a corner where a prophet lay - Saw the
place where she'd a room to stay - A wire fence where the chil-
dren played - Saw the bed where the body lay - And I was
looking for a friend of mine - And I had no time to waste -
Yeah, looking for some friends of mine - The cars screeched
hear the sound on dust - Heard a noise just a car outside -
Metallic blue turned red with rust - Pulled in close by the build-
ing's side - In a group all forgotten youth - Had to think, collect
my senses now - Are turned on to a knife edged view -
Find some places where my friends don't know - And I was
looking for a friend of mine - And had no time to waste - Yeah,
|
looking for some friends of mine. - Down the dark streets, the
houses looked the same - Getting darker now, faces look the
same - And I walked round and round - No stomach, torn apart
- Nail me to a train - Had to think again - Trying to find a clue,
trying to find a way to get out! - Trying to move away, had to
move away and keep out - Four, twelve windows, ten in a row -
Behind a wall, well I looked down low - The lights shined like a
neon show - Inserted deep felt a warmer glow - No place to
stop, no place to go - NO time to lose, had to keep on going -
I guess they died some time ago - I guess they died some time
ago - And I was looking for a friend of mine - And I had no
time to waste - Yeah, looking for some friends of mine.
I remember nothing 1979 (cd1#12 & cd4#12)
We were strangers - We were strangers, for way too long, for
way too long - We were strangers, for way too long -
Violent, violent...
Were strangers - Get weak all teh time, may just pass the
time - Me in my own world, yeah you there beside - The gaps
are enormous, we stare from each side - We were strangers for
way too long - Violent, more violent, his hand cracks the chair -
Moves on reaction, then slumps in despair - Trapped in a cage
and surrendered too soon - Me in my own world, the one that
you knew - For way too long - We were strangers for way too long
- For way too long.
