Hybrid – If I Survive

Breathing shallow,
I’m slipping away.
Hanging in the gallows,
I’m starting to pray.
How careful it was planned to do away with me;
So kill me if you can,
But words won’t make be bleed.
So what if I survive,
And live to tell the truth?
Imagine my surprise,
To find me living and so very much alive!
I’ll find a new life and hide,
If I survive.
But I swear you’re going down if I survive!

I’ll find a new life and hide if I survive.
I’ll find my own place in time if I survive.
I’ll learn to forget the crime if I survive…
But I swear you’re going down if I survive!

If I survive I’ll tell on you.

I’ll find a new life and hide if I survive.
I’ll find my own place in time if I survive.
I’ll learn to forget the crime if I survive…
But I swear you’re going down if I survive!

The one I want

Sitting in my room last night
Staring at the mirror
I couldn’t find a reason why
I couldn’t be near her

‘Cause you are the one that started
To make me feel this way
And every night I’m thinking
About the words you’d say

Pictures going through my mind
When we’re together
All these long and sleepless nights
Will I ever get better?

‘Cause you are the one that started
To make me feel this way
And every night I’m thinking
About the words you’d say
‘Cause you are the one I want

Now you know how I feel
This love is forever
You make my life seem so unreal
Will I ever get better?

‘Cause you are the one that started
To make me feel this way
And every night I’m thinking
About the words you’d say
‘Cause you are the one I want

Gary Numan – Are Friends Electric‏

It’s cold outside
And the paint’s peeling off of my walls
There’s a man outside
In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette

Now the light fades out
And I wonder what I’m doing in a room like this
There’s a knock on the door
And just for a second I thought I remembered you

So now I’m alone
Now I can think for myself
About little deals and issues
And things that I just don’t understand
A white lie that night
Or a sly touch at times
I don’t think it mean anything to you

So I open the door
It’s the friend that I’d left in the hallway
‘Please sit down’
A candlelit shadow on a wall near the bed

You know I hate to ask
But are ‘friends’ electric?
Only mine’s broke down
And now I’ve no-one to love

So I found out your reasons
For the phone calls and smiles
And it hurts and I’m lonely
And I should never have tried
And I missed you tonight
So it’s time to leave
You see it meant everything to me

“Warped, warped, warped, warped”
“Warped, warped, warped, warped”
‘Warped, warped, warped, warped”
“Warped, warped, warped, warped”

I was watching the TV late at night
I had nothing to do so I was just watching it absent-mindedly
Flipping through channels, successful people were getting recognition
“That person isn’t warped at all… how wonderful”*

“How boring,” I thought and turned it off
Better go to sleep, I have work from tomorrow on

Unable to go to sleep, I flipped through some comics
A gravure idol was smiling at me**
“That athlete is just my type.
Those sorts aren’t warped at all… how wonderful”

I get it, the reason I’m not rewarded
Is because, as a person, I’m quite warped

So sit up properly! Already,
I’m warping, warping, warping away
Make it so I can’t tell why I’m trembling!
Slipping away! I’m already a warped human
But if you are here, I can change?
“Just realize that I am here”

Think of the warping as a surge
Won’t this warping change the world as well?
I feel people can’t help but notice me
Even if now they can only see me trembling

Alright, I get it, the reason I’m not rewarded
Is because, as a person, I’m quite warped

Ah, I get it, the reason I’m trembling
Is because I don’t have anyone to support me

I’m sitting up! Already,
We’re warping, warping, warping away
Make it so I can’t tell why I’m trembling!
Slipping away! I’m already a warped human
But if I meet you, I can change?
“Just realize that I am here…”

Ringo Mogire Beam!

Apple Plucking Beam!
Apple Plucking Beam!
Apple Plucking Beam!
Your life changes everything!

If you find somebody who sings your thinking whole,
you should not fall in love instantly.
“I might be doing it only for business.”

Apple Plucking Beam!
Apple Plucking Beam!

But if you can’t stop your emotion,
believe and shout the password.
Sing together that everything will change.
Change! fly! fly!

“Who do you want to show your changed self to?”
To guys who made light of me!

Now let’s go beyond despair slightly
“To this side.”
There surely is Shangri-La if I’m with you. The password is
“Apple Plucking Beam!”
But I wonder if it makes no difference wherever I may go.
“Do you intend to be there forever?”

Apple Plucking Beam!
Apple Plucking Beam!
Apple Plucking Beam!
Your life changes everything!

If you meet the great story which understands your loneliness,
you should not worship it as a god instantly.
“I might be only applying the manual.
But you love it for all that, don’t you? Say the password.”
Because we can’t stop our emotions,
we believe and shout the password.
We sing together that everything will change.
Change! fly! fly!

“Who do you want to show your changed self to?”
To guys who looked down plainly on us.
To those bastards!

To the other side.
Let’s go beyond despair slightly
“To this side.”
There surely is Paradise if we are together. The password is
“Apple Plucking Beam!”
But I wonder if it makes no difference wherever I may go.
“You have not even looked for it yet.”
I wonder if day can break from this night of despair.
“I will teach you one thing.”

Everything’s gonna be alright!
There is no endless night.
This is the business of love and
“the manual”

Yes, let’s go….

Now let’s go beyond despair slightly
“To this side.”
There surely is Shangri-La if I’m with you. The password is
“Apple Plucking Beam!”

To the other side.
Let’s go beyond despair slightly
“To this side.”
There surely is Paradise if we are together. The password is
“Apple Plucking Beam!”

To the other side.
