I’m not a man, I’m a machine
Chisel me down until I am clean
I buy books, I never read
And then I’ll tell you some more about me
Beneath the concrete there’s a sound
A muffled cry below the ground
There is a poison in the air
A mix of chemicals and fear
My words are just hunches
I’m not sure what they mean
You’re asking for commitment
When I’m somewhere in between
Never, never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's our velocity
Is it cold where you are this time of the year
You didn’t leave a scar
I’ve seen that numbers hit a screen
And you’re expected to know
what they mean
Throughout the conflict I was serene
I can't outrun the sadness I’ve seen
Are you willing to resist
The people you’ve never met
The devil's wheel revolves
But it needs to be reset
Never, never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's our velocity
Please tell me is it cold
where you are this time of the year
You didn’t leave a scar
I’ve got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore
I’m just alone
With these thoughts
I’ve got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone
With my thoughts
I watched a film to change my feelings
Strong enough to bear a burden
If everyone became this sensitive
I wouldn't have to be so sensitive
If everyone became so sensitive
Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive
Love is a lie,
which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie,
which means I've been lying too
Love is a lie,
which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie
I’ve got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore
I’m just alone
With these thoughts
I’ve got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore
I’m just alone
With my thoughts
Never, never try to guage temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's our velocity

Thanks to Greetings from Germany xxx Claudia for submitting the lyrics.
This band are simply fantastic, I'm hoping for a high posting at V next year, as they killed at Reading! Punchy, funny, and soooo accurate in their lyricism, the No1 band currently around! God bless 'em (and the Chiefs, oh and the Wombats! Great V this year Lads!!)

I absolutely love this song. The lyrics are slightly cheesy but the beat makes them more meaningful. This is my favourite song of April 2007! Thats pretty high in my ratings seeing as I saw MCR live and they rocked, so to get higher than them means this song/band must be amazing... check out their album its fantastic!!!
