Lyrics:

the alarm rang for days
you could tell from conversations
i was waiting by the screen
i couldn't recognise my photograph
me, i disconnect from you

i was walking up the stairs
something moved in silence
i could feel his mind decaying
only inches away from me
and i disconnect from you

please don't turn me off
i don't know what i'm doing outside
me and the telephone that never rings
if you were me what would you do
me, i disconnect from you


Gary Numan, 'Me! I Disconnect From You', _R_e_p_l_i_c_a_s (Beggars Banquet/ATCO 1979)
