Tubeway Army - The Life Machine (Original Version) lyrics

[Verse 1] Me i've just died But some machine keeps on humming I'm just an extra piece of dead meat to keep running Why won't you let me die in peace Why won't you let me die with some kind of honour Why won't you let me die at all I know You've got your principles [Verse 2] My body lies immobile I left it days ago And me i watch from somewhere As the loved ones come and go I see them glancing at the switch I hear them whispering "maybe it's better that way" I see the love turn into feelings I know Aren't quite the same
