This Time of Night Lyrics by New Order

Low-Life (Definitive)

1985

[Intro: Jeffrey Bernard]
I'm one of the few people who live what's called a low life

[Verse 1: Bernard Sumner]
We all feel the same
All pleasure and nothing to gain
I've known you from the start
I've grown used to your wooden heart
Now you know my name
You search your empty brain in vain
If you don't change your ways
You'll end up here with me unraised

[Chorus: Bernard Sumner]
Without you they'll never know
Without you my life won't flow
Without you they'll never show
Without you the night won't go
Without you I'm left alone
Without you I'm on my own
Without you I live in pain
Without you I've gone insane

[Verse 2: Bernard Sumner]
Now you must decide
What good's a lie when you've nothing to hide
Maps they'll never show
They're dumb like you, they never know
It's time we said goodbye
Bury your head and silence your cry
Know the feel of pain
Join our world and play our game

[Chorus: Bernard Sumner]
Without you they'll never know
Without you my life won't glow
Without you they'll never show
Without you the night won't go
Without you I'm left alone
Without you I'm on my own
Without you my life's a waste
Just for you I wrap my face
Without you I'm left alone
Without you I'm on my own
Without you I live in pain
Without you I've gone insane

[Outro: Peter Hook]
Whatever you may think of me
Don't ever take my dignity
Don't ever take my dignity
Don't ever take my dignity
Whatever you may do to me
Don't ever take my dignity
Whatever you may do to me
Don't crucify my dignity
Aye
