No More Lies ('89 Mix)
Gary Numan · Other Songs - Gary Numan
Everything reminds me
Easily
You walking out so easily
No goodbyes
Not even a tear for me
Now you cry
You'd like to have my company
But I'm not gonna call you again
I'm not gonna pick up the phone
No I'm not going through it again
You're not gonna leave me alone
No more lies
I don't need this anymore
I've heard it all
Now I'm gonna close the door
Seems to me
Nothing comes that easily
Time to leave
You'll take it all and run from me
But I'm not gonna call you again
I'm not gonna pick up the phone
No I'm not going through it again
You're not gonna leave me alone
I'm not gonna call you again
I'm not gonna pick up the phone
No I'm not going through it again
You're not gonna leave me alone
But I'm not gonna call you again
I'm not gonna pick up the phone
No I'm not going through it again
You're not gonna leave me alone
I'm not gonna call you again
I'm not gonna pick up the phone
No I'm not going through it again
You're not gonna leave me alone
But I'm not gonna call you again
I'm not gonna pick up the phone
No I'm not going through it again
You're not gonna leave me alone
No More Lies ('89 Mix)
Gary Numan's 'No More Lies' stands as a defining track from his late 1980s period, reimagining the iconic 1979 hit with a darker, more atmospheric production. This recording exemplifies Numan's evolution from the stark, robotic sound of Tubeway Army into a more brooding, electronic style that would characterize his work throughout the 1980s. The '89 Mix specifically enhances the original's haunting quality, utilizing synthesizers and layered vocals to create a moody soundscape that resonates with the post-punk and new wave genres of the era. As a staple of his discography, the song captures the tension and alienation often explored in his music, serving as a bridge between his early experimental roots and his later, more mature synth-pop approach.
