Lyrics My Dying Machine - Gary Numan

My Dying Machine

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
