Cabaret Voltaire - War Of Nerves (T.E.S.)

When you know that now's the time to leave and be free
Aware of your destiny
When that moment arrives, wild visions through the mind
And all I see, is what used to be, my life could soon be a memory

I don't ever wanna feel pain
Wanna be ready when you call my name
I don't ever wanna feel fear
'Cos every night feels alright, when you're near

Battle through this wall of nerves
When your life it takes a turn
What I have is what I feel
While in my mind your lyin' here

Fear that unholy dread
There's a piece of me in all he says
All kinds of weird stuff inside my head
The stage fright in my own bed

I don't ever wanna feel pain
Wanna be ready when you call my name
I don't ever wanna feel fear
'Cos every night feels alright, when you're near

Don't wanna be like a voice without words
'Cos I need you here with me
Don't wanna be alone in this world
Will I suppress my fear
And will I beat this war of nerves

I don't ever wanna feel pain
Wanna be ready when you call my name
I don't ever wanna feel fear
'Cos every night feels alright, when you're near

I don't ever wanna feel pain
When it's over will I feel the same?
I don't ever wanna feel fear
This war of nerves that I reserve for when you're here

I don't ever wanna feel pain
I'm feeling hurt, but I feel no shame
I don't ever wanna feel fear
Do I deserve these cruel words we have here?

When you know that now's the time to leave and be free
Aware of your destiny
