The Seed Of A Lie
Gary Numan
Sacrifice (1994)

I'm a ghost in the dark and i'm yours.
I belong in the past and i'm yours.
Like a song you forget, and i'm yours.
Like a dream in the night, and i'm yours.


The wrong place?
The wrong time?
I don't know.
The wrong face?
Yours or mine?
I don't know.


Like a tear when you sleep, i'll be yours.
Like a scar that won't fade, i'll be yours.
Like a pain in the cold, i'll be yours.
Like a fear in the heart, i'll be yours.


The wrong word when you cry
I will be
Like the seed of a lie
I will be
Like the germ of disease
I will be
Like the last one who cared
I will be


Like your shadow
I will haunt you
Do you remember?
I said to you
'love is a mountain
But harder to climb.
It should be forever
But love is unkind
To me.
Don't let me down.'


And you let me down.
