Big Black Sea – Gary Numan (feat. Rico)

I left a rose at the bottom of the big black sea

For you

From me

I haven’t uttered a sound since you set me free

I wish I was you

and you felt like me

Outside connection’s breaking down

Internal wiring’s burning out

The clouds so thick that I can’t see

This is for you

from me

She said: ‘tell me all your secrets, fantasies and fears;

Let me see the polaroids of people you hold dear.’

Trapped in tunnel vision, in monophonic sound

She says she loves you

she loves you

then it all falls down

Echoes in the bedroom

Projections on the walls

Translations of her letters:

Forever’s not at all

Trapped in tunnel vision

and monophonic sound

she loves you

she loves you

then it all falls down

Outside connection’s breaking down

Internal wiring’s burning out

The cloud’s so thick that I can’t see.

I wish I was you

Instead of me

I left a rose at the bottom of the big black sea.

I did it for you.

from me.

I haven’t uttered a sound since you set me free

I wish I was you

and you felt like me

Outside connection’s breaking down

All internal wiring’s burning out

I dive down towards the big black sea

this isn’t for you

this one’s for me

This time it’s all for me

And this time it’s all for me

(she loves you, she loves you then it all falls down)
