A5 I found the bones of all your ghosts E5 Locked in the wishing well F5 While birdsong gourmets dragged empty nets G5 I slumbered in my shell A5 In mitternacht, die mensch-maschine E5 Kissed me on my eyes F5 I rose and left the fire-ladies G5 Glowing lonely in the night F5 With all the pornographers E5 A5 Burning torches beneath the sea (chorus) E5 F5 G5 I want to be a machine E5 F5 G5 I want to be a machine E5 F5 G5 I want to be a machine E5 I want to be a machine A5 I stole a cathode face from newscasts E5 And a crumbling fugue of songs F5 From the reservoir of video souls G5 In the lakes beneath my tongue A5 In flesh of ash and silent movies E5 I walked at boulevards again F5 A nebula of unfinished creatures G5 From the lifetimes of my friends F5 E5 A5 I hope your innocence has depraved me (chorus) A5 Broadcast me, scrambled clean E5 Or free me from this flesh F5 Let the armchair cannibals take their fill G5 In every cell across wilderness A5 We'll trip such a strangled tango E5 We'll waltz a wonderland affair F5 Let's run to meet the tide tomorrow G5 Leave all emotion dying there F5 E5 A5 In the star cold beyond all of your dreams (chorus)
