Take a bow
Pack on powder
Wash 'em out with buzzing lights
Pay an audience to care
"Impress me" personality
Still and transfixed
The electric sheep are dreaming of your face
Enjoy you from the chemical
Comfort of America
Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, camera, transaction
Quick, your time is almost up
Make all forget that they're the moth
Edging in towards the flame
Burn into obscurity
Still and transfixed
The electric sheep are dreaming up your fate
And judge you from the card castle
Comfort of America
Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, camera, transaction
Your foundation is canyoning
Fault lines should be worn with pride
I hate to say it but
You're so much more
You're so much more
Mesmerizing sounds I hear telling me to kill
Telling me submit to the power
Demonic overtones I fear stealing my freewill
I am now the man of the hour
Controlling all my thoughts now I don't know
Right from wrong there is no hope for escape
Stung by wicked words as the silence
Speaks to me there is no hope for escape
CHORUS
Voices from the grave
Telling me to sin
My soul is what they crave
Killing me within
Disembodied spirits near pervading through my soul
Getting harder to live in this Hell
Angry voices loud and clear now they take control
Now they leave me just an empty shell
Controlling all my thoughts now I don't know
Right from wrong there is no hope for escape
Stung by wicked words as the silence
Speaks to me there is no hope for escape
CHORUS
Voices from the grave
Telling me to sin
My soul is what they crave
Killing me within
Nothing to do but heed to their world
And live to their every command
All of my thoughts are sacrificial
And used for their violent plans
Mustering strenght to fight the attack
Released from a hypnotic state
I drop to my knees and pray to the Lord
To save me from my evil fate
Screaming in pain I'm thrown to the floor
And grabbed by their arms of control
The powers of evil the powers of good
Are fighting for my weakened soul
A winner emerges darkness prevails
No future's in sight for me
Can't take the pain darkness delivers
Dying will set me free
Clenching the gun sweating in fear
Knowing the end is surely near
Pulling the trigger launching death
Evil inside me gasping breath
Lifeless pile dead and gone
Evil around me still lives on
Lesson in life the road is paved
Follow God and you'll be saved
Beware of voices from the grave
I'm born
I'm alive
I breathe
In a moment or two I realize,
that the sphere upon which I reside,
is asleep on its feet.
should I go back to sleep?
We orbit the sun
I grow up
my open eyes see...
A zombified, somnambulist society.
Leaving us as vitamins
for the hibernating human animal.
Do you see what I mean?
You stare at me like a vitamin
On the surface you hate,
but you know you need me.
I'll come dressed as any pill you deem fit.
Whatever helps you swallow truth
all the more easily.
And I wonder, will you digest me?
Into the sleep machine I won't plug in,
in fact I'd rather die before I will comply.
To you, my friend,
I write the reason I still live,
'cause in my mind it's set the vitamin is ripe to give
Coming closer to another 2000 years
you and I will pry
They kill for a reason
They'll strike anyone
Doesn't matter how old or young
Pay 'em big cash, they'll give 'em a slash
Explain how it should be done
A shot in the head
The man cut in half
Tortured 'till death
You'll never see him back
CHORUS
Underground killers
They are everywhere
Killing for money
They don't care
Leaving their victims covered with blood
Underground killers
Will make a mess
Whose killing plans have been set
Murdering their victims without mercy
They promise to make it worse
Tell 'em their next mission
And they'll give 'em death
Burn him alive
A high voltage jolt
A stab in the back
They promise you'll see him dead
Slay the victim to death
Dead bodies everywhere
Brutality is their authority
Killers are not afraid of death
CHORUS
Underground killers
They are everywhere
Killing for money
They don't care
Leaving their victims covered with blood
Underground killers
Will make a mess
Whose killing plans have been set
Murdering their victims without mercy
They promise to make it worse
More massacre for the long future generation
Their customers are the only police source of information
You've paid 'em in full
For the dirty job they've done
Now you must die
Like the other ones
I've got a picture,
Of me and you.
You wrote 'I love you',
I wrote 'me too'.
I sit and stare at it, there's nothing else to do
Oh it's in color,
Your hair is brown.
Your eyes are hazel,
And soft as clouds.
I often kiss you when there's nothing else around
I've got your picture,
I've got your picture,
I'd like a million of you all round my cell
I want a doctor,
To take your picture,
So I could look at you from inside as well.
Chorus
You've got me turning up,
I'm turning down,
I'm turning in,
I'm turnin out;
I'm turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
I'm turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
I'm turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
I'm turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
I've got your picture,
I've got your picture,
I'd like a million of you all round my cell
I want a doctor,
To take your picture,
So I could look at you from inside as well.
CHORUS
No sex,
No drugs,
No wine,
No women,
No fun,
No sin,
No you-
No wonder it's dark.
Everyone around me is a total stranger,
Everyone avoids me like a psyched lone ranger.
Everyone.
Thats why I'm turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
Turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
Turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
Turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
Turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
Turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
Turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so. (think so, think so, think so, think so)
Turning Japanese,
I think I'm turning Japanese,
I really think so.
Bowing down to an angel cast out by god
Worshipping a deceitful enemy
Who's laughing at their pride in following him
Considering everyone to be merely human pigs
Under his cunning and evil eyes
[Chorus:]
A multitude is in total chaos
Knowing not the deceived ones that they are
Asking for power, richness and desire
The price that they must pay
Is their souls thrown into a cauldron of fire
By being weak and blind
The fools disrespect the Christian houses of god
They are the opposite of all that is holy
Locked in cages of sins
How can they reject the creator of all living things
The almighty god hears the prayers from holy priests
And Christians alike, forgiveness for them is at hand
But curses shall fall upon those that refuse to repent
[Lead, Lead]
God's only begotten son was scourged, mocked and put
To death and resurrected on the third day
Proved his powers to demonstrate
How goodness always prevails
Followers of damnation march on in their darkest ways
Falling to see and admit the truth tha christ left for us today
[Repeat chorus]
Roaming souls
Prisoners of the bottomless pit
Tempting us
To be tortured in the everlasting fire
They are trying
To penetrate into your...
Religious ones
Protected by the words of Christ
Militant atheists
Destroying the ones that are unsafe
With evil powers
They are pestilenting
The human race
They are trying
To penetrate
Into your faith
CHORUS
Spirits of damnation
Who wander throughout the world
Trying to destroy us before Armageddon
For the ruin of our souls
Beware the Anti-christ will be here
To exterminate our religion each year
Because he knows the Son of Man is near
Don’t be afraid Jesus Christ will be here
The end is near
Let’s all beware
Of the prophecies
Deads and alives shall be judged
By all holy forces
Sinners will be Satan’s wrath
For a thousand years they will regret
It’s coming so let’s all be aware
They’re trying
To penetrate
Into your faith
CHORUS
Spirits of damnation
Who wander throughout the world
Trying to destroy us before Armageddon
For the ruin of our souls
I'm home alone tonight Full moon illuminates my room, and sends my mind afight
I think I was dreaming up
some thoughts that were seemingly possible... with you So I call you on the tin
can phone We rendezvous at
a quater-two, and make sure we're alone I may have found a way for you and I to
finally fly free When we
get there, we're gonna go far away Making sure to laugh; while we experience
anit-gravity Fot years, I
kept to myself Now potentialities are bound, and sleeping under my shelf Simply
choose your destination
from the diamond canopy, and we'll be there So I call you on the tin can phone
We rendezvous at a

finally be free

In house beach, french countesse, ten thou piece
Rent-out lease, with a option to buy
Coppin a five-oh Benz for when I'm not, far up in the sky
Puffin the lye, from my Twinzito
Up in the Benzito with my kiko from Queens, nicknamed Perico
We go back like PA's and wearin PJ's

Long as you show class, and pass my test
Fat, highly intelligent bachlorettes

I wanna get a brunette, with unforgettable sex
I lay your head on my chest, come feel my heartbeat
We can park the Jeep, pump Mobb Deep, and just spark the
It's hard to creep since I found Joe
Every pretty round brown, wanna go down low
But this Boogie Down pro-fessional, I'ma let you know
Once I quit the blows, get your clothes, cause you got to go
I could go downstairs, little brown hairs everywhere
"You nasty brock!" I don't care
Round here they call me Big Pun, if you with the big guns
Take time, known to make a chick
Up In the hot tub, poppin bubb-ly
Rubbin your spot love, got you screamin Punish me

But Big Punisher, still got what you're lookin for
Uptown baby, uptown
I don't wanna be a playa no more
I'm not a playa I just crush a lot
But you know Big Pun and brock still down behind
Solstice sun it sank beneath the line
and the commoners were...
drunken upon the hillside
or so the story goes.
I guess she followed along
so she could...
watch their games!
Sink beneath the line little girl.
Peak above the shrine them commoners were.
Harvest moon it peaked above the shrine
and the crawlers emerged multitudious!
Silly girl she sat upon their doorway
just poppin a squat!
That's when she...
felt the squirms.
My underpants!
All I know is that she wanted to be part of the crowd.
I could've told her she was welcome here, anywhere!
But instead she combed the outskirts lookin inside
and then she sat upon a bughill.
This was when things started to get rough.
An army-o-de-pinchers climbed their creepy ways
right inside her 5-0-1 cut-offs
and her skin took on a hue of a chemical unknown to me thats right!
They were biting her beneath the line.
She was a sitting on atop their shrine.
I wish I could've warned her!
"She should've worn underpants!
There's bugs crawling everywhere and shit,
The human race started with Adam and Eve
They lived in a world where they were free
So listen and beware that this is Hell
'Cos they ate the fruit from the tree
CHORUS
Mighty force
Evil's mighty force
When Satan took a Serpent form
The couple's destiny was then traced
Leaving God's wrath frustrated
They couldn't resist the Serpent Temptation
CHORUS
Mighty force
Evil's mighty force
Mighty force
Evil's mighty force
We now live in a world of civilization
We're still affected by the Serpent Temptation
Technology won't help you to get salvation
The devil doomed God's creation
So let's destroy the devil's fucking nation
Alone in my house
Full of hate and fear
Your death is near
My passion for killing will take you to death
I slay a victim I torture his wife
They die by my knife
I'm coming for you
So take your last breath
The more I kill, the more the need grows
I dislodge the eyes and hack off the nose
CHORUS
I'm a sadistic sinner
I will slash you at will
It is the devil inside me
Who makes me wanna kill
Evil
And you will die by my hand
Killer
And I'll make you understand
Possessed
Just like the knife in my hand
Killer
He taunts my soul and he twists my mind
The blood of my victims is all they can find
I dismember the body as its blood is being sprayed
I gaze in splendor at the mess I have made
Cold is the blade
I carry in rage
They live in fear
My passion for killing will take you to death
My soul is a demon that no one can save
I spread my disease
I'm coming for you
So take your last breath
The more I kill, the more the need grows
I dislodge the eyes and hack off the nose
CHORUS
I'm a sadistic sinner
I will slash you at will
It is the devil inside me
Who makes me wanna kill
Sadistic
Sinner
I'll kill you slow, I'll kill you fast
I'm coming for you, I'll kick your ass
Pardon me while I burst
Ho, no... ho, no, no
Ho no, no, no, no
A decade ago, I never thought I would be
At twenty-three on the verge of spontaneous combustion,
Woe is me
But I guess that it comes with the territory
An omnious landscape of never-ending calamity
I need you to hear, I need you to see
That I have had all I can take
and Exploding seems like a definite possibility to me
So pardon me while I burst into... flames
I've had enough of the world and its people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn... and rise above the flame
Pardon me. Pardon me. Don't ever be the same
Not two days ago, I was having a look in a book
And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees
I said, "I can relate"
cause lately I've been thinking of
combustication as a welcomed vacation from
The burdens of the planet Earth
Like gravity, hypocrisy and the perils of being in 3-D
But thinking so much differently...
So pardon me while I burst into... flames
I've had enough of the world and it’s people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn... and rise above the flame
Pardon me. pardon me. And I’ll never be the same
Never be the same… yeah
Ho-oh oh-oh, oh
Pardon me while I burst into flames
Pardon me. Pardon me. Pardon me
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world and its people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me. pardon me. Don't ever be the same...
Never be the same, yeah
Ho no, no-no-no... no...
Pardon me while I burst
Pardon me while I burst
A decade ago, I never thought I would be.
A twenty three on the verge of spontaneous combustion woe is me
But I guess that it comes with the territory.
An ominous landscape of never-ending calamity.
I need you to hear. I need you to see.
That I have had all I can take
And exploding seems like a definite possibility
To me
So Pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world, and its people's mindless games
So Pardon me while I burn, and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be the same.
Not, two days ago I was having a look in a book
And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees
I said I can relate
Cause lately I've been thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from.
The burdens of the planet earth, like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D...
And thinking so much differently.

Never be the same...yeah.
Pardon me while I burst into flames.
Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me.
So pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world, and it's people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn, and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be the same.
Pardon me, never be the same. Yeah
Die by violence in this world
Is nothing strange for us
With all those chemicals, wars and destructions
We do not know mother nature has in store for us
The race for economy makes people forget
The lives around this planet
As men become more egoist
Pretty soon
there will be nothing in this world
For men to spare
[Pre-chorus:]
Stupidity, causing pain
And sickness
To our world
Suffer
[Chorus:]
On the burial ground
Is what this planet is all about
It's where we are right now
We might not have any future to be found
On this burial ground
We have nowhere to hide
Death is laughing at our cries
And now we are feeling the effects
That the forces of nature has brought
The droughts, Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions
It's gettin worse than even before
We can see the revenge of this planet upon us
As we keep hurting the sea
The soil and the air
Sometimes some catastrophic accidents happen
Causting death rate and we wounder from where
People are dying in civilization of different lands
Because of the drought
Occurences of flooding everywhere
Killing innocent people and leaving others in despair
Abomination because people fear that all these events
Happen without any warning killing unexpectedly
Men subjugate the forces of nature
But we don't know that it's destroying us slowly
The animals are becoming extinct
Seas and rivers polluted by toxic waste
Combustible smoke
Factories are creating acid rains
That is burning our skins
Damaging plantations
And soon it will bring us to death
Air pollution is disintegrating our atmosphere
Allowing the ultra-violet rays to burn the earth
And to provoke us fear
[Repeat chorus]
[Lead]
Soon some of the lives on this planet
Won't exist anymore
Because we won't be able to recreate
Some of the beauty thta we had before
Nobody seems to care
About the future of our children's civilizations
We better act now
So they won't have a life of torment and frustration
[Repeat pre-chorus, chorus]
Cursed by men this world has become
We are building our own tombs
By eliminating our source of life
When blindly we continue the destructions
There's no future
Day by day we are reaching the end of our lives
I am one big walking chemical reaction
A buzzing hive of cells, synopsis
And nascent self perception
Isn't it disdainful and curious
That both of us think we know everything?
We both have brains, we both have eyes
Neither of us can see
One in the same, two of a kind
And neither of us can see
I am just a blinking neon roadside attraction
A mass of future wrinkles
And untold untapped potential
Isn't it disdainful and curious
That both of us think we know everything?
We both have brains, we both have eyes
Neither of us can see
One in the same, two of a kind
And neither of us can see
I am one big fleeting errant contradiction
So good to meet you, we are one in the same
Isn't it disdainful and curious
That both of us think we know everything?
We both have brains, we both have eyes
Neither of us can see
One in the same, two of a kind
And neither of us can see
My hands are trembling
And my eyes are on fire
This house is crumbling
Left brain, left out, on the wire
You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph
My past is perilous
But each scar I bear sings
Monuments to where I have been
And melodies to where I am going
You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph
When will I see you again?
Still-life can only go so far
I need you in front of me
Saying my name
Saying to me...
"I want you the way you are
You, the way you are"
You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph
You make me happy
If I hadn't made me, I would've been made somehow
If I hadn't assembled myself, I'd have fallen apart by now
If I hadn't made me, I'd be more inclined to bow
Powers that be, would have swallowed me up
But that's more than I can allow
Bow, aww yeah
If you let them make you, they'll make you paper mache
At a distance you're strong, until the wind comes
Then you crumble and blow away
If you let them fuck you, there will be no fore-play
Rest assured, they'll screw you complete
Til your ass is blue and gray
You should make amends with you
If only for better health, better health
But if you really want to live
Why not try, and make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself
If I hadn't made me, I'd have fallen apart by now
I won't let them make me, It's more than I can allow
So when I make me, I won't be paper mache
And if I fuck me, I'll fuck me my own way
POW, fuck me in my own way
POW, fuck me in my own way
POW, fuck me in my own way
Fuck me in my own way
You should make amends with you
If only for better health, better health
But if you really want to live
Why not try, and make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself
Make up your mind
And I’ll make up mine
Don’t worry about me
I’ll be fine
Those words that you said to me
Why wasn’t I listening?
I wish I hadn’t met you at all
I started thinking
I’ll sit back, and relax
and wait for the morning

Make a Move -- from Stealth soundtrack
I'm at the end of my ribbon again
For those who own to apathy
You had the perfect opportunity
But pled the Fifth and walked away
Oh! Say something
Make us proud
Cast the first stone
Say any anything at all
Make a move (x2)
For every one thing we're ignorant of
A thousand more things beat the maze, yeah
You saw the apple hanging on a tree
But missed the orchard in your gaze
Oh! Say something
Make us proud
Cast the first stone
Say any anything at all
Make a move
(Hands on the eyes are the engines of demise)
Make a move
I'm cautious of who I would call a friend
Who you aquaint is who you are
The darkest hours are when we choose a side
So make your pick and take a fall
Say something
Say anything at all
Make a move (Hands on the eyes are the engines of
I heard a word from on high
Clear like a light in the sky
It said, "quit blowing each other up"
The voice seemed so crystally clear
Some things are clean in your ear
When only blood fills your cup
Hello
I'm trying to focus, but my eyes decieve me
Focus
I'm witnessing history repeating
It fell like a tear from my eye
Flying machines so up high
Well, there goes the neighborhood
A scene set to singe innocence
Upheave, unhinge, and pit against
Like every made for TV movie should
Hello
I'm trying to focus, but my eyes decieve me
Focus
I'm witnessing history repeating
Focus, Focus
Focus (I can see now)
We are, we know, we see, we think for you
The who, the what, the when, the where, the why
We build your hill, we build you too, we see you
Hello
I'm trying to focus, but my eyes decieve me
Focus
seria un necio si digo que en el mundo no hay maldad
seria un ciego si no viera que este mundo no da mas
seria tonto si a ti te digo siempre la verdad
seria feo que te mienta y que lo vieran los demas
algunos dias la lluvia gris no te deja salir
algunas noches el miedo no te deja decidir
hay mucha gente que quiere que te vallas a dormir
hoy no te duermas que despierto no te pueden confundir
el tiempo pasa pero hay que esperar
la vida duele pero hay que caminar
la noche oscura no te deja mover
el sol no brilla pero hay que florecer
algunas drogas confunden y te pueden hacer mal
algunas chicas te engañan y despues no las ves mas
hay mucha gente que canta siempre la misma cancion
escucha siempre la musica que esta en tu corazon
el tiempo pasa pero hay que esperar
la vida duele pero hay que caminar
la noche oscura no te deja mover
el sol no brilla pero hay que florecer
si no me ayudo nadie me va a ayudar
si no lo grito nadie lo va a escuchar
estoy tan solo no me puedo abandonar
perdiendo el tiempo asi
el tiempo pasa pero hay que esperar
la vida duele pero hay que caminar
la noche oscura no te deja mover
el sol no brilla pero hay que florecer
el tiempo pasa...
Incubus - Just A Phase lyrics
I am bottled fizzy water
And you were shaking me up
You are a fingernail running
Down the chalkboard I thought
I left in third grade
Now my only consolation
Is that this could not last forever
Even though you're
Singing and thinking how well
You've got it made
Who are you?
And will you be through
Yeah, it's just a phase
It will be over soon
Yeah, it's just a phase
Yeah, it's just a phase
Call it women's intuition
But I think I'm
Onto something here
Temporaryism has been
The black plague
And the Jesus of our age
I know that
I sound opinionated
May be biased and
Quite possibly jaded
But sooner than later
They'll be throwing quarters
At you on the stage
Who are you?
And will you be through
Yeah, it's just a phase
It will be over soon
Yeah, it's just a phase
Yeah, it's just a phase
And I am waiting for
It to be over too

::chorus::
When our powerful structure creates sound
The walls of the hall start coming down
You're thrashing and slamming like there's no end
The mob starts to get out of hand
Distorted sound goes through your ears
The pounding of the bass creates fear
You stop and breathe when we slow down
You have no chance 'coz our drummer's not fucking around
Now you're gonna have this torment
For the rest of your life
No peace, no chance, no sleep day or night
We're coming through your nughtmare you will see
So be ready to meet the power of...
CHORUS
Incubus, Incubus
CHORUS
Incubus
You are the victim, because you betray us
You've got no place to hide
You can't destroy us we'll crank the decibel high
Our sound can never die! Die! Die!
The mission's not over
Preparing for your destruction
We'll thrash you with all emotion
You're running out of time
There's nothing you can do
We're taking your breath from you
Nothing you can do, Take your breath from you
We'll smash your skull
Came from the word
Only one word
Came from the sound of Incubus
To see you,
when i wake up is a gift
i didn't think could be real.
To know that you feel the same
as i do is a three-fold utopian dream.
You do something to me
that i can't explain.
So would i be out of line
if i said, i miis you.(?)
I see your picture,
i smell your skin on
the empty pillow next to mine.
You have only been gone
ten days, but already i'm
wastin' away.
I know i'll see you
again, whether far
or soon.
But i need you
to know that i care
and i miss you.
Rational human beings irrational in other ways
Betraying each other in an unfriendly race
All they do is think for themselves
Ask them for some help and they'll tell you to go to Hell
Welcome to the brutal world
Vehemence, the way it goes
Rejoicing for the disgrace of the succesful one
The jealousy is the weapon of the incompetent bum
So if you think you've got your best frined
You better look back, you never know what he might do next
The anger is built in silence
It's gonna cause some ignorant violence
That's a goal rule number one
To achieve in command
What they've done in the past
You're gonna let'em pay back
I wonder why you do to others
What you don't want them doing to you
If prejudice has a value in life
Evil would rule you too
Remember for all the bad things you commit
You're gonna pay with the same coin, you damn fool
Breaking the barrier between patience and rage
That are controlling you
Now you're feeling what your best friend was going through
That's the way the circle of life
Has been for many years ago people are so greedy
When they're in trouble, they look for you
You can't lose this society battle
Evil plans are coming to your mind
To fight back, a sabotage
That has happened many times
CHORUS
Hunger for power
When you die
All you have
Won't go with you
Hunger for power
Stupid fight
You better stand straight
Or you might fall
CHORUS
Hunger for power
You'll never know
What might happen
To us all
Hunger for power
When you die
All you have
Won't go with you
I've been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello, is it me you're looking for?
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
You're all I've ever wanted, (and) my arms are open wide
'Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much, I love you ...
I long to see the sunlight in your hair
And tell you time and time again how much I care
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
Hello, I've just got to let you know
'Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying, I love you ...
*Hello, is it me you're looking for?
'Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying ... I love you*
(these are the lyrics for the entire song, but incubus only covered the stuff in the asteriks.)
I'm thinking of my soul's sovereignty,
and I know everything you hate in me.
Fill me up with over-pious badgerings,
to throw them up, oh, one of my favorite things.
Remember all the lessons fed to me?
Me the young sponge, so ready to agree.
Years have gone; I recognize the walking dead,
now aware that I'm alive and way ahead.
Too bad the things that make you mad
are my favorite things.
And I'm so happy.
I see you looking, I know that you're thinking
that I'll never go anywhere.
The things that I've done and the things
You are divided
For now, For now
You are divided
For now, For now
You are divided
I have a wish, I want to learn
I wish to see, and I want to affirm
That what I see in reflection day to day
Isn't all I am
Say what you see
When you close your eyes and glide
The only shell who could
Circumvent the tide
Sheds of himself
That tells us what he knows
And a piece of him will stay
When the rest of him
Goes
You are divided
For now, For now
You are divided
You are divided
For now, For now
You are divided
I have a wish, I want to learn
I wish to see, and I want to affirm
That what is here, broken record everyday
Isn't all there is
Say what you see, when you close your eyes and glide
The only shell, to Circumvent the tide
Shells out himself, And tells us what he knows
A piece of him will stay
A piece of him to stay, helps me grow
The piece of you
That makes you, you
That part stays
You are divided
The piece of you
That makes you, you
That part stays
You are divided
Ahhhhh, ahhhh
You're only divided
The piece of you
That makes you, you
That piece stays
You are divided
The piece of you
That makes you, you
Don't be afraid
Fifteen minutes to six and fourteen floors to go
Thirteen suited strangers makes the crowded elevator slow
And I've got a million words and phrases on the tip of my tongue
For the only non stranger next to me soon she'll know
Know, know. So let them stare
If I cry think of what you'll be and let you in on how i feel need to spill
Let all of it out right now as and expose every inch in front of them
A twelve more floors your eyes and mine all I need to come clean
Or should I wait for the lobby, spare the lies
Some 26 nervous eyes argue by the little red numbers passing by
If I wait one minute longer, I think I will die
Die, die. So let them stare.
If I cry think of what you'll be and let you in on how i feel,need to spill
Let all of it out right now as and expose every inch in front of them
If I cry think of what you'll be and let you in on how i feel,need to spill
Let all of it out right now as and expose every inch in front of them
You help me to feel safe and know
All the while I've been so inquisitive
I can't go back cuz now I know how it feels to open up and breathe
I can't go back cuz now I . . .
I can't go back cuz now I . . .
I can't go back cuz now I . . .
If I cry think of what you'll be and let you in on how i feel,need to spill
Let all of it out right now as and expose every inch in front of them
Yeah
Infront of them
Infront of them
Infront of them
Today, everything was fine fine fine
Until roundabout quarter to 9, suddenly I found myself in a bind, a bind
Was it something I said
Something I read
And manifest that's getting you down
Don't you dare come to bed with that ambiguous look in your eye
I'd sooner sleep by an open fire and wake up fried
Say what u will
Say what u mean
No, you could never offend
Your dirty words come out clean, clean
Tomorrow, what price will I pay
Could I make it all up to you by serving coffee for two in bed, would you then give me the time of day
I need a map of your head, translated into english so I can learn to not make you frown
Feel better if you vent, put your frustrations into four letter words and let them out on mine
The most weathered ears in town!
Say what u will
Say what u mean
No, you could never offend
Your dirty words come out clean
Clean
Say what u will
Say what u mean
No, you could never offend
Your dirt words come out clean
Say what u will
Say what u mean
No, you could never offend
You saw me lost and treading water,
I looked pathetic,
I looked as helpless as a stinger without a bee.
But underneath my presentation, (yeah.)
I knew the walls were coming down
and the stones that fell were aiming away from me.
Hey! What would it mean to you
to know that it'll come back around again?
Hey! Whatever it means to you,
know that everything moves in circles.
I saw you standing in my headlights. (Blink, blink, blink.)
I thought I'd run you down for the weight you left on me.
Instead I pushed rewind, reversed and drove away.
And seeing you disappear in my rearview brought to me the word 'Reciprocity!'
Hey! What would it mean to you
to know that it'll come back around again?
Hey! Whatever it means to you,
know that everything moves in circles.
Round and round we go...
who could've known it'd end so well?
We fall on and we fall off...
Modern world men
Blinded by technology
Using the Lord's words
For their own material needs
Stealing the goods
From the faithful ones
Evangelists in suits
Dominating their thoughts
And souls thrown in blasphemy
They don't know about the truth
But they try to convince you
CHORUS
I wonder how God can resist
Using his words like this
Speaking the holy words
But in a different way, in terror
They teach 'em not to be saved
But leading them to an error, leaving 'em unsafe
Malignant force are speaking
Through the false prophets
They don't know that an evil spirit
Can take a preacher's soul
A fucking organization determined to rule the world
Preparing those for their supreme evil one
Ask for good help, now
Before it's too late, you all
After they steal your soul they even take your money away
Trying to put all other religion down
Like if them all was in vain
Satan is draining their souls
And they can't feel it
They are all blind now
'Cos they left their true religion
Each day their legion
Is growing more and stronger
Pretty soon there'll be
No one left to survive
Innocent people looking for guidance
They don't know who they're messing with
CHORUS
I wonder how God can resist
Using his words like this
Taking the Bible to make a profit
They can't escape from the blaspheming prophets
Perfect night
The moon shines bright
But covered with blood
Because this is an evil night
Calls for a sign
Is what the invokers are meditating
The souls from beyond
Are hearing them calling
Moving objects
Sinister sounds in the air
Nerves tense
Hands holding tight
You can feel it answering everywhere
The seekers are happy
Thinking that they are hearing
The voice from their loved one
[Chorus:]
Beyond the unknown
Powerful spectre
Closing in
Is it a dream
Or is it true
Beyond the unknown
Communication begun thru the incarnated body
Of the spiritual leader
Questions are asked, answer correct
But they don't know the real horrors
Behind the spirit of the dead
Ceremony is over now
Relatives left in satisfaction
Knowing that he's resting in eternal peace
[Lead]
Days have passed
Then there was a knocking at the door
Live in the flesh
The missing one that they tought was dead
Memories coming back
Realizing what they have heard
Was nothing but a malignant force
Telling them nothing but lies
[Repeat chorus]
Stones of thought the sleaper awakes
Gone but a chioce which path will i take
No longer my prison my key to the past
I'll mention your sorrow now love will ever last
Love will ever last
Your voice on a thought now is your blood
A chance for new life
Now so close in your eye
The same lies now renders my thought
You belted me silly, now bathe in my snot!
Stones of thought the sleaper awakes
Gone but a chioce which path will i take
No longer my prison my key to the past
I'll mention your sorrow now love will ever last
Love will ever last
A certain shade of green,
tell me, is that what you need?
All signs around, they say move ahead.
Could someone please explain to me
your ever present lack of speed?
Are your muscles bound by ropes?
Or do crutches cloud your day?
Oooooo
My sources say the road is clear,
and street signs point the way.
You gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for,
a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray
watching you procrastinate.
What are you waiting for,
a certain shade of green?
Would a written invitation
signed, choose now or lose it all, all
sedate your hesitation? jazz
Or inflame and make you stall?
You've been raised in limitation,
but that glove never fit quite right.
The time has passed for hand-me-downs,
choose a new, please evolve,
take flight.
You gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for,
a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray
watching you procrastinate.
You gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for,
a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray
watching you procrastinate.
Ooooooo
7 am
The garbage truck
Beeps as it backs up
And I start my day thinking about
What I've thrown away
Could I push rewind?
All the credits strewn
In signifying the end
But I missed the best part
Could we please go back
To the start?
Forgive my indecision
Then again, then again, then again
You're always first when
No one's on your side
Then again, then again, then again
The day will come when
I want off that ride
11 am
By now you would think
That I would be up
But my bedsheets shade
The heated choices I made
What did I find?
I never thought I could want
Someone so much
'Cause now you're not here
And I'm knee deep
In my own fear
Forgive my indecision
I am only a man
Then again, then again, then again
You're always first when
No one's on your side
Then again, then again, then again
The day will come when
I want off that ride
12 pm and my dusty telephone rings
I get up from my pillow
Could it be?
I hope its you
It's you, oh
Then again, then again, then again
You're always first when
No one's on your side
Then again, then again, then again
The day has come and
I want off that ride
Better than watching Gellar bending silver spoons.
Better than witnessing new born nebulaes in bloom.
She who sees from 'up-high' smiles and surely sings.
Perspective pries your once weighty eyes and it gives you wings.
I haven't felt the way I feel today
in so long it's hard for me to specify.
I'm beginning to notice how much this feels like a waking limb...
pins and needles,
nice to know you,
goodbye!
Deeper than the deepest Cousteau would ever go.
And higher than the heights of what we often think we know.
Blessed she who clearly sees the wood for the trees.
To obtain a 'bird's eye' is to turn a blizzard into a breeze.
I haven't felt the way I feel today
in so long it's hard for me to specify.
I'm beginning to notice how much this feels like a waking limb...
pins and needles,
nice to know you...
goodbye!
When I close my eyes... I can see for miles.
There's comfort in my dark seat... and chaos in the aisles.
These eyes are not your eyes
and these eyes are not the color that your arid eyes might be.
No, I was not around
when those eyes of yours decided so
I refuse to kneel before the sights you choose to see.
When I close my eyes... I remember why I smile.
Under my umbrella... I'm an accomplished exile.
These eyes are not your eyes
and these eyes are not the color that your arid eyes might be.
No, I was not around
when those eyes of yours decided so
I refuse to kneel before the sights you choose to see!
If this is right, I'd rather be wrong.
I know you vie for the good ol' days
And with less of us around, we were a cinch to sway
Does it feel like it's the end of the world
Well maybe it is, but when was it not,
Cause it's true, me and you
We are all tomorrow's food today
There's no such thing as the good ol' days
The older we all get, the better we all were
There's no such thing as the end of the world
(But just in case! )you'd best batten down and button up
Cause it's true, me and you
I only go where I'm wanted
You go only where you want
I aim to be more like you
There is a ghost in my house
Rattling handles on every door
Show us an open window or two
Would you?
Doors are starting to close
And you drew a rose my, my
Your mind it is original, oh
You're a skeleton key, opening me,
My, my; your mind it is original,
Girl you're the original
Always were
And always will be
The flowers of adaptation
Unfold and lovingly alarm
You effortlessly ring that bell
Your stripes are yours and yours only
The bow ideal of rare birds
And now I am under your spell
Oh, under your spell
Doors are starting to close
And you drew a rose my, my
Your mind it is original, oh
You're a skeleton key, opening me,
My, my; your mind it is original,
Girl you're the original
Always were
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes and makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
Nine night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my
Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
You're stumbling in the dark
I'm keeping an eye on the future
An eye on the past
And the present in my pocket
Just in case I need a door...
Into a brave new world
Where all solutions end up with my head
Buried to my neck in sand.
Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!
Hats off and applause to Rogues and Evolution!
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!
It's too good, too good, not to have an effect.
I'm keeping an eye on the pulse
An ear to the track and
Penance in a locket
I'm dropping from the highest floor
When it hits the ground
I watch it smash to pieces
Songs of liberation
Echo from the dust
The dust
Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!
Hats off and applause to Rogues and Evolution!
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!
It's too good, too good, not to have an effect!
Enough,Enough,Enough,Enough,Enough!
Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!
Hats off and applause to Rogues and Revolution!
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!
Erica and her Isadore
Climbed aboard a balloon
I want more than this kite will soar
I've set our sights on the moon
You can't just leave, I've given everything
I can't believe you're taking everything
You're taking everything
Oh...
It's not who you were
It's who you are
And we've come this far lover
No, I won't rest
Until the world
Knows the name Isadore
Blinded by their unbridled height
Our lovers turned dissolute
You can't just leave, I've given everything
I can't believe you're taking everything
You're taking everything
Oh...
It's not who you were
It's who you are
And we've come this far lover
No, I won't rest
Until the world
Knows the name Isadore
Knows the name Isadore
Then with eyes wide, a splintered sight
There's just one parachute
Goodbye Erica now I see
That my worst fears were in tune
It's not who you were
It's who you are
And we've come this far lover
No, I won't rest
Until the world
Knows the name Isadore
Knows the name Isadore
Won't rest
Until the world
I'm a ne'er do well
Running off black gold
It's high time I pulled over
and walked around a while
I've seen the porcelain shell
Your exoskeleton
And I feel like we walk well together
Because in the end, we are friends and lovers
If asked of me I would
Gobble them to bits
The things that wall us off from
Where we belong
What's wrong with you is good
for what's wrong with me
and I think maybe we should stick together
Because in the end, we are friends and lovers
We are friends and lovers
Abandon all the bones
We've got to pick
They'll only weigh us down and
We are better than that
If they all throw stones
Start a collection
Of everything we're not
And won't be-cause
You should never have to defend
(never have to defend)
Being friends and lovers
Being friends and lovers (oh)
Look at you with all your shiny
Toys for boys, it's all unnerving
Bold and new but dark and spotty
The toys enjoy the undeserving
Don't ask, don't tell, follow
Don't ask, don't tell, yeah
Fat the world then sink your teeth in
Cannibal and missionary, toes are curled
My thanks uneven
When tales so tall are ordinary
Don't ask, don't tell, follow
Don't ask, don't tell, yeah
Don't ask, don't tell, follow
Look at you with all your shiny
Toys for boys, it's all unnerving
Bold and new but dark and spotty
The toys enjoy the undeserving
Don't ask, don't tell, follow
Don't ask, don't tell, yeah
Fat the world then sink your teeth in
Cannibal and missionary, toes are curled
My thanks uneven
When tales so tall are ordinary
Don't ask, don't tell, follow
Don't ask, don't tell, yeah
Don't ask, don't tell, follow
Fifteen minutes to six and fourteen floors to go
Thirteen suited strangers makes a crowded elevator slow
And I've got a million words and phrases on the tip of my tongue
For the only non stranger next to me
Soon she'll know, know, know, so let 'em stare
If I could think, I would give in
And let you in on how I feel
Need to spill, let all of it out right now
And expose every inch in front of them
Twelve more floors, your eyes and mine are all I need to come clean
Or should I wait for the lobby
And spare the lives of some 26 nervous eyes
Being occupied by little red numbers passing by
If I wait one minute longer, I think I will die, die, die, it isn't fair
If I could think, I would give in
And let you in on how I feel
Need to spill, let all of it out right now
And expose every inch in front of them
If I could think, I would give in
And let you in on how I feel
Need to spill, let all of it out right now
And expose every inch in front of them, front of them
You help me to feel, see and know
Why all the while I've been so impatient
I can't go back 'cause now I know how it feels to open up and breathe
I can't go back 'cause now I, I can't go back 'cause now I
I can't go back 'cause now I, I can't go back 'cause now I know
If I could think, I would give in
And let you in on how I feel
Need to spill, let all of it out right now
And expose every inch in front of them
Yeah, in front of them
You blink and you miss a beat, keep one of your eyes open at all times
You think that your on the brink, the shit hasn't even begun to hit the fan
The consequence you'll see will be stranger than a gang of drunken mimes
The situation has a stink better clear the air before your son becomes a man
We all want something we know can not have...have
You think everything's been augmented that you have been left so far behind
I think for sure next time you should wear a pair of eyes in the back of your head
The consequence you've seen has been stranger than Sci-Fi of any kind
The situation baffles me, I guess its true you too are one of the walking dead
Better think fast, fast, cuz you never know what's coming round the bend
You better not blink, oh blink, the consequence is a bigger word than you think
Its bigger than you or me, You or me, You or me
You or me
Better think fast, fast, cuz you never know what's coming round the bend
You better not blink, oh blink, the consequence is a bigger word than you think
I don't want to talk to you anymore;
I'm afraid of what I might say.
I bite my tongue everytime you come around,
cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground.
Hand over my heart; I swear I've tried everything I could within all my power.
Two weeks and one hour I slaved, and now I've got nothing to show.
Oh, if only you'd grow taller than a brick wall.
From now on I'm gonna start holding my breath when you come around
and you flex that fake grin, cause something inside me has said more than twice
that breathing less air beats breathing you in!
I don't want to talk to you anymore;
I'm afraid of what I might say.
I bite my tongue everytime you come around,
cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground.
Hand over my mouth; I'm earning the right to my silence.
In quiet, discerning between ego and timing.
Good judgement is once again proving to me
that it's still worth it's weight in gold.
So from now on I'm gonna be so much more wary when you start to speak
and my warm blood starts to boil,
that seeing you is like pulling teeth and hearing your voice is like
chewing tin foil.
I don't want to talk to you anymore;
I'm afraid of what I might say.
I bite my tongue everytime you come around,
cause blood in my mouth beats blood on the ground.
High fives to better judgement. By saying less, I will gain more.
You crawl in bed, it's 3 a.m.
You smell of wine and cigarettes
A butterfly under the glass, you are beautiful
But you're not going anywhere
We do the same thing every night
I swear I've heard this song before
A swimmer who has seen a shark
I'd really be more wary of the water
You came, you saw, you conquered everyone
I'm left here guessing, oh, what went wrong?
Yeah, I'm down but not out, and far from done
Beware criminal
A prism with an intellect
You show your light selectively
You stole my glow, a seasoned thief
The blacks of my eyes are turning into opals
Today, I'll walk
There's nothing here left for me but empty promises
And the thought of all the things
I'm never getting back
You came, you saw, you conquered everyone
And I'm left here bleeding, what went wrong?
Yeah, I'm down but not out, and far from done
Beware
Beware criminal
Criminal
Criminal
Did you think, did you think I wouldn't notice?
Did you think, did you think, did you really think I wouldn't care?
Did you think, did you think I wouldn't notice?
Did you think, did you think, did you really think, yeah
You came, you saw, you conquered
And I'm left here bleeding, oh, what went wrong?
Yeah, I'm down but not out, and far from done
Floatin' round my brain,
tryin' to think about the other thing.
Than that thought you know I'm considering.
What if what I thought,
about who I think I though I was,
was nothing more than my cerebellum slobbering?
Azwethinkweizm is hard to think about,
but simple to trust.
You'll know your on it
when your brain won't stop to take a break, no!
So when donut boy comes askin' around,
tryin' to figure out somethin' new,
you just smile and say,
"Pardon you! I'm sitting through
some particles and farcing through some folds.
I've stumbled upon a brain fart
which melts away your molds!"
So I think upon that ponder
while I'm pondering the thought,
just thinkin' about the thinkweiz
is leaving me distraught!
Well I think I thought
I saw an Azwethinkweiz,
Lookin' like we think we do.
Like we think we do.
Some think I'm insane,
'cause I think about the other thing,
than that one thought you call reality.
What if what you thought,
about who you think you thought you were,
was nothing more than illusion rapidly crumbling!
Azwethinkweism should be a topic we all can trust.
It's just to bad it makes your
head go zippitykrack @#$% dang!
So when donut boy comes sniffing around
trying to figure out something new,
you just laugh and say, "Pardon you,
I'm through some particles and
farcing through some folds.
I've stumbled upon a brain fart
which melts away your molds."
So I think upon that ponder
while I'm pondering the thought,
just thinking about the thinkweiz
is leaving me distraught.
Well I think I thought I saw an Azwethinkweiz,
lookin' like we think we do.
Like we think we do.
So what if you thought about the thinkweiz
was nothing like you think you are?
You'd probably more than likely be a
lookyloo lookin' like you think you do.

I’m floating down a river
Oars freed from their holes long ago
Lying face up on the floor
Of my vessel
I marvel at the stars
And feel my heart overflow
Further down the river
Two weeks without my lover
I’m in this boat alone
Floating down a river named emotion
Will I make it back to shore?
Or drift into the unknown
Further down the river
I’m building an antenna
Transmissions will be sent
When I am through
Maybe we can meet again
Further down the river
And share what we both discovered
Then revel in the view
Further down the river
Two people touching lips
Hands on each other's hips
Nothing in else in the world but one another
The 42nd floor
On a distant shore
I wonder how we've strayed so far from this
Remember when we were
Just flesh and bone
You sir may have forgotten how good your world can be
So, put down your hollow tips
And kiss your lovers lips
And know that fate is what we make of it
Please end this, please end this
Before this ends us, ends us
I wanna stay inside
I wanna stay inside for good
I wanna stay inside
For good, For good
I read the news today
And everything they say
Just makes me want to stay inside and wait
But the better part of me knows
That waiting in the throws
Is on par with reading with my eyes closed
"What Can I do?", You say
"It's just another day
In the life of Apes with ego trips"
Put down your hollow tips
And kiss your lover's lips
And know that fate is what we make of it
Please end this, please end this
Before this ends us, ends us
I wanna stay inside
I wanna stay inside for good
I wanna stay inside
For good, For good
I'm gonna stay inside
I'm gonna stay inside for good
I'm gonna stay inside
For good, for good
I wanna stay inside
I wanna stay inside for good
I wanna stay inside
Don't want to stay inside for good
Don't wanna stay inside, for good, for good, for good, for good, for good, for God, for good, for go
Could you move in slow motion?
Everything goes by so fast
Just slow down a little
Save the best part for last
You speak in riddles
Your intentions turn me old
I'm yours forever
Will you love me when I'm gone?
When I'm gone
You're an undiscovered
(When I'm gone)
Over walls we've trampled
(When I'm gone)
It's you I admire
(When I'm gone)
My living example
Oh, your eyes are
An undiscovered ocean far away
Any minute now
Keeping both poets and priests at bay
Eh, don't get ahead of me, could we
Just this once see eye to eye?
Could you want perhaps me?
Ask me how it feels to vie?
To vie
You're an undiscovered
(To vie)
Over walls we've trampled
(To vie)
It's you I admire
(To vie)
My living example
It's a photograph discovered a decade after
It's a cannon-blast disguised as a firecracker
It's enough to bring a brick wall to its knees
And sing, please, ooo

A certain shade of green
Tell me, is that what you need?
All signs around say, "Move ahead"
Could someone please explain to me
You're ever present lack of speed?
Are your muscles bound by ropes
Or do crutches cloud your day?
My sources say, "The road is clear
And street signs point the way"
Are you gonna stand around 'til 2012 a.d?
What are you waitin' for
A certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watchin' you procrastinate
What are you waitin' for
A certain shade of green?
Would a written invitation
Signed, "Choose now or lose it all"
Sedate your hesitation
Or inflame and make you stall?
You've been raised in limitation
But that glove never fit quite right
The time has passed for hand-me-downs
Choose a new, please evolve
Take flight
Are you gonna stand around 'til 2012 a.d?
What are you waitin' for
A certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watchin' you procrastinate
(Talk that thing)
Green?
What are you waitin'?
What are you waitin'?
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin'?
What are you waitin'?
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?

I think I grew a gray watchin' you procrastinate
Are you gonna stand around till 2012 a.d?
What are you waitin' for
A certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watchin' you procrastinate
seven a.m.,
the garbage truck beeps as it backs up
and I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away.
Could I push rewind?
The credits traverse signifying the end but I missed the best part.
Could we please go back to start?
Forgive my indecision
Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side.
But then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.
eleven a.m.,
by now you would think that I would be up
but my bedsheets shade the heat of choices I've made.
And what did I find?
I never thought I could want someone so much
'cause now you're not here and I'm knee deep in
that old fear.
Forgive my indecision... I am only a man
Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side.
But then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.
Twelve pm and my dusty telephone rings.
Heavy head up from my pillow, who could it be?
Every time I come here
I'm not sure what to say
I know it should be easy
But it never seems that way
You, you make me feel
Like no one ever will
So why, why do you bore me
Until my heart is still
You
You wear me down
My defenses are gone now
And I can't fight
I can't say I love you easily
But you wouldn't want me to
So I'd rather just say nothing
And leave it up to you
Then it's easy to forget
You're iust as small as me
Then it's easy to forget
You're just as foolish as me
You
You wear me down
My defenses are gone now
And I can't fight
Nice car!
Where'd you get your ride?
A trophy? Badge of honor? Overcompensation?
Price tags! Advertise yer pride
Since when did what we pay for colored cloth gage our gravity?
Yeah you got your little world
Picture perfect, its a pearl
Now go and try and sleep in the bed you made
You should be careful what you wish for!
'Cause everyone of us has the devil inside
You should be careful what you wish for!
'Cause all of what amounts becomes you
Nice watch!
Man, you got the time?
There€™s never enough and it always goes too slow
Yeah you got your little world!

I dig my toes into the sand.
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds
Strewn across the blue plain.
I lean against the wind.
Pretend that I am weightless.
and in this moment I am happy... happy.
I... Wish you where here.
I... Wish you where here.
I... Wish you where here.
I... Wish you where... here.
I lay my head unto the sand.
The sky resembles a back lit canopy
With holes punched in it.
I'm counting UFO's.
I signal them with my lighter.
And in this moment I am happy... happy.
I... Wish you where here.
I... Wish you where here.
I... Wish you where... here.
Wish you where here.
The world's a roller coaster,
And I am not trapped in.
Well maybe I should hold with care,
But my hands are busy in the air ... sing...
I... Wish you where here.
I... Wish you where...
I... Wish you where here.
I... Wish you where here.
I... Wish you where... here.
Wish you were here.
I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like
A thousand diamonds
Strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment
I am happy, happy
I, wish you were here
I, wish you were here
I, wish you were here
I, wish you were
Here
I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles
A backlit canopy
With holes punched in it
I'm counting UFOs
I signal them with
My lighter
And in this moment
I am happy, happy
I, wish you were here
I, wish you were here
I, wish you were
Here
Wish you were here
I, oh
The world's a rollercoaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
While my hands are
Busy in the air
Saying
I, wish you were here
I, wish you were
I, wish you were here
I, wish you were here
I, wish you were
Here
Wish you were here
scavo gli alluci nella sabbia
l'oceano sembra come mille diamanti stesi sopra una coperta blu
mi inclino contro il vento
pretendo di essere senza peso
e in questo momento sono felice,felice
vorrei tu fossi qui
appoggio la testa sulla sabbia
il cielo assomiglia ad una volta senza luce con dei buchi
sto contando gli ufo,e mando loro segnali con la luce
e in questo momento sono felice,felice
vorrei tu fossi qui
il mondo Ÿn roller coaster
e io non vi ci sono avvinghiato
forse dovrei aggrapparmi facendo attenzione
ma le mie mani sono occupate in aria
vorrei tu fossi qui
vorrei tu fossi qui
vorrei tu fossi...
vorrei tu fossi qui
Take a bow, pack on powder
Wash 'em out with buzzing lights
Pay an audience to care
'Impress me' personality
Still and transfixed, the electric sheep
Are dreaming of your face
Enjoy you from the chemical
Comfort of America
Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, camera, transaction
Quick, your time is almost up
Make all forget that they're the moth
Edging in towards the flame
Burn into obscurity
Still and transfixed, the electric sheep
Are dreaming up your fate
And judge you from the card castle
Comfort of America
Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, camera, yeah
Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two one
Lights, camera, transaction
Lights, camera, transaction
Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, camera, transaction
Your foundation is canyoning
Fault lines should be worn with pride
I hate to say, you're so much more, you're so much more
You took our lives away
to increase your self esteem.
An underlie in the public eye.
Your dubbed insane if and when you try to
speak your mind...IN YOUR OWN WAY!
Ignore the past and...
SPEAK FREE!
You smashed glass eyes just to say,
"It all is all that I need."
What you see
is a reflection of my choice
and what it means to me.
Trapped in your cell.
A mindless plot against own eyes
to simplify your hell!
Imagine your brain as a canister filled with ink yeah
Now think of your body as the pen where the ink resides
Fuse the two; KAPOW! What are you know?
You're the humane magic marker
Won't you please surprise my eyes?!
It's in your nature, you can paint whatever picture you like
No matter what Ted Koppel says on channel 4 tonight
So modify this third rock from the sun
By painting myriads of pictures with the colors of one
I'm sick of painting in black and white
My pen is dry now I'm uptight
So sick of limiting myself to fit your definition
Picture the scene, where whatever you thought, would, in the blink of an eye,
manifest and become illustrated
You'd be sure man that every line drawn reflected a life
That you loved not an existence that you hated
So, must we demonstrate that we can't get it straight?
We've painted a picture, now we're drowning in paint
Let's figure out what the fuck it's about before the picture we painted
Chews us up and spits us out
I'm sick of painting in black and white
My pen is dry, now I'm uptight
So sick of limiting myself to fit your definition
Psychopsilocybin runnin horny mother fucker.
Trippin on his shoelace, searchin for the hairy sucker.
He dont need no funny money, his love is all his power.
Half-naked and full witted, and two weeks less a shower!
You'll see me, I'll be there, with my nose in the grass!
One for me, one for you.
Two for me, one for you.
Three for me, one for you.
I fly
i soar
This I adore
And then like a locomotive
The sound of your sorrow comes.
I'm tired of the way it feels
I only apologized to you to make you feel better
But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.
I'd rather be alone
You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,
But pain will roll off like water on feathers.
You'd fly,you'd soar
But then like a locomotive
The sound of your sorrow comes.
I'm tired of the way it feels
I only apologized to you to make you feel better
But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.
I'd rather on my own
You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,
But pain will roll off like water on feathers.
I'm tired of the way it feels
I only apologized to you to make you feel better
But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.
I'd rather be alone
You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,
Viewed the scene on a black and white T.V.
Chose your words "hey mom I want to be..."
So, study hard. Your work became your cell.
Don't you dare inhale, or you'll be damned to hell! No!
Yes, back and in your prime and things are in a swirl.
Solaced with your choice, out pops a baby girl!
Family now complete, and power's in your hands.
You've won the greatest prize, it's time to take a stand.
Sphincter freed last on your common throne.
You think the kill weeds chompin' at your noodles flow.
There's somethin about the herb, so fast, hypnotize.
A ripened head change that'll pillow your eyes.
Will you be the superman inflicting drastic change?
The power of your name has spanded out a boundless range.
Will you meet the needs of a fast paced, awkward, life-span I call "we"?
Our trust is now within you.
So by soul cries let it be.
Pillow your eyes!
Yes, I, praise Jah!
Disconnect and let me drift,
until my upside down is right side in.
Society must let the artist go,
to wander off into the nebula.
Upon return, I conjure what was seen.
I let it pulse and boil within my limbs.
I lay my pencil to the porous page,
and let my lunatic indulge itself.
Wander off into your nebula, see your nectarine of
multiplicity cum like orgasmatron
on overdrive!
Wander in off to your nebula, your tangerine of
electricity is ripe and on a vine, so pick your prize!
Do you enjoy your sight inside?
I've seen a place not far away.
Where people are individuals.
And every car has a phone.
They'll bend backwards just to hear you say,
"I've got a new 'Rolls' so why can't I take you home?"
Enough with their materialism and anal retentive state of mind.
All you need is yourself and a cause so the truth will be all that you will find.
What? Save me! God? Save me!
You dress to impress and intimidate.
All in hopes that you'll catch a glimpse of a star.
Your guard is up and I see right through you.
Those credit cards and your make-up have gone too far!
Enough with their materialism and anal retentive state of mind.
All you need is yourself and a cause so the truth will be all that you will find...
Why can't I...dismiss my own vibe?
Please help me....piss miss bliss away!
I look and I...see your fucking face!
Smiles kept by a...hidden will to live!!!!!
You can't see what your cheap mind game has done for me!
To see you when I wake up, is a gift I didn't think could be real
To know that you feel the same, as I do, is a Three-fold utopian dream
You do something to me
That I can't explain
So would I be out of line, If I said
I miss you.
I see your picture, I smell your skin on, the empty pillow next to mine
You have only been gone ten days, but already I am wasting away
I know I'll see you again
Whether far or soon
But I need you to know, that I care
Earth To Bella
I sense a quiet Emergency
Earth to Bella
So Much More to get than wrong (Oh Yeah)
Earth To Bella
Treading Water Successfully
But Are you Really?
Dont you want to see the Deep?
Its not so hard Just forgive yourself
And Feel the water over you.
(Ooooh)
(Oooooo La La La)
(Guitar playing and Sounds)
Earth to Bella
You think you've got it all figured in
Earth to Bella
Everything you know is wrong (Well, almost)
Earth to Bella
I see where you are not listening
I bear the burden of being the voice that let's you know
We all grow old
And before you stand you've gotta be okay to sing
Earth to Bella
The world can be an unfriendly place
So won't you head off
Do your best to save some face
It's not so hard
Just contain yourself and see your second sun
Escape
Okay to sing
I'm okay to sing
I'm okay to sing
I'm okay to sing
Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
And I can't help but ask myself how much I'll let the fear
Take the wheel and steer
It's driven me before and seems to have a vague
Haunting mass appeal
But lately I'm beginning to find that I
Should be the one behind the wheel
Whatever tomorrow brings
I'll be there with open arms and open eyes yea
Whatever tomorrow brings
I'll be there I'll be there
So, if I decide to waiver my chance
To be one of the hive
Will I choose water over wine
And hold my own and drive?
Aah ah ooo
It's driven me before and it seems to be the way
That everyone else gets around
But lately I'm beginning to find that when
I drive myself my light is found
Whatever tomorrow brings
I'll be there with open arms and open eyes yea
Whatever tomorrow brings
I'll be there I'll be there
Would you choose water over wine?
Hold the wheel and drive
Whatever tomorrow brings
I'll be there with open arms and open eyes yea
Whatever tomorrow brings
It cuts the music with so much class

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding buller)
On a burning bridge, your options are minimal at best.
Depending on where you're standing
and how much breath is in your chest.
If it came down to it
would you high-tail home and hide?
Or dance on fire and enjoy the ride?
Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew.

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)
Or pull and see how much we can undo.
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)
At the heart of it all
that innermost, your fiery core
there;s an amassing armor
and it's building you into a bore.
Life's a match in a gas tank
don't ever mourn the ebbing tide
just dance on fire and enjoy the ride!
Hey!

You and I are like oil and water
And we've been trying, trying trying
Ohhhh, to mix it up.
We've been dancing on a volcano
And we've been crying, crying, crying
Over blackened souls.
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,
it will not be the last time.
There is no parasol that would shelter this weather.
I been smiling with anchors on my shoulders
But I've been dying, dying, dying
Ohh, Ohh, Oh to let them go.
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,
it will not be the last time.
There is no parasol that would shelter this weather.
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,
it will not be the last time.
We were trying to believe that everything would get better.
We've been lying to each other
Hey! Babe! Let's just call it what it is!
Oil and Water!
Oil and Water!
Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast to truth
(I don't want to lose what I had as a boy.)
My heart still has a beat
But love is now a feat.
(As common as a cold day in LA.)
Sometimes when I'm alone, I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?
Love hurts...
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive.
Love sings,
When it transcends the bad things.
Have a heart and try me,
'cause without love I won't survive.
I'm fettered and abused,
I stand naked and accused
(Should I surface this one man submarine?)
I only want the truth
So tonight we drink to youth!
(I'll never lose what I had as a boy.)
Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?
Love hurts...
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive.
Love sings,
When it transcends the bad things.
Have a heart and try me,
Earth to Bella
This is a quiet emergency
Earth to Bella
There's so much more to get then wronged
Earth to Bella
You're treading water successfully
But are you really?
Don't you want to see the deep?
It's not so hard
Earth to Bella,
You think you've got it all figured in,
Earth to Bella,
Everything you know is wrong. Well, almost
Earth to Bella,
I've seen when you are not listening
I bear the burden
Of being the voice that lets you know
We all grow old,
And before you swim you gotta be ok to sink.
Earth to Bella,
The world can be an unfriendly place.
SO hold your head up
And do your best to save some face.
It's not so hard...
Just undo yourself and see a
Second sun ascend.
I'm ok to sink
ok to sink
Im ok to sink
A cloud hangs over this city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder if she might be,
Out there and sober as a well for loneliness,
Please do persist girl its time we met and made, a mess
I picture your face in the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic a proof of the prize,
Anna-Molly, Anna-Molly, Anna-Molly...
Doo doo doo doo do doo doo doo doo doo
A cloud hangs over,
And mutes my happiness,
A thousand ships couldn't sail me back from distress,
Wish you were here,
I'm a wounded satellite,
I need you now put me back together make me right
I picture your face in the back of my eyes a fire in the attic a proof of the prize,
Anna-Molly, Anna-Molly, Anna-Molly
I'm calling your name up into the air
Not one of the others could ever compare!
Anna-Molly, Anna-Molly!
Wait there is a light,
There is a fire illuminated attic,
Fate or something better I could care less,
Just stay with me a while,
Wait there is a light, there is a fire defragmenting the attic,
Fate or something better I could care less,
Just stay with me a while
I picture your face in the back of my eyes a fire in the attic a proof of the prize,
Anna-Molly, Anna-Molly, Anna-Molly,
I'm calling your name up into the air.
Not one of the others could ever compare!
Is everything a baited hook?
And are there locks on our doors?
If your looking for an open book
Look no further, I am yours
We'll behave like animals
Swing from tree to tree
We can do anything
That turns you up and sets you free
You're an exception to the rule
You're of a bonafide rarity
You're all I ever wanted
Southern girl
Could you want me?
So come outside and walk with me
We'll try each other on to see if we fit
And with our roots, become a tree
To shade what we make, under it
We'll behave like animals
Swing from tree to tree
We can do anything
That turns you up and sets you free
You're an exception to the rule
You're of a bonafide rarity
You're all I ever wanted
Southern girl
Met my match today
Felt the blood rushing and mingling
A curious and enigmatic thing
Spiders in my dreams
Synchronicity weaves like a web
When you were meant to be a meal
I want you bad!
I want you bad!
I understand why they say high school never ends
Never act my age
You can tell by the lines in my smile
That I have been around for awhile
So, insecurities
Are about as useful as trying
To put the pin back in the grenade
I want you bad!
I want you bad!
I understand why they say high school never ends
I want you bad!
I want you bad!
I understand why they say high school never stops
This isn't coincidence
There's no such thing
This isn't coincidence, no
This isn't coincidence
It's no such thing.
This isn't, no
I want you bad!
I want you bad!
Unlearn me
Ditch what I read
Behind what I heard
Look, find, free
Yet, do you get it?
Yet, do you get it?
From here on it's instinctual
Even straight roads meander
Every piece contains a map
Of it all, it all
Evidence
March of the air
Pulse of the sea
Look, find, free
Yet, do you get it?
Yet, do you get it?
From here on it's instinctual
Even straight roads meander
Every piece contains a map
Of, it all, it all
On a line indivisible
A crow left of the murder
Every piece contains a map
Of, it all, it all
Everything I wanted
Wanted to know
Everything I wanted
Wanted to see, to see
Unlearn me
Unlearn me
Do you get it yet?
Look, find, free
Do you get it yet?
Do you get it yet?
Do you get it yet?
Do you get it yet?
Do you get it yet?
Medium, medium.
Waking up I smell the scent of coffee on the brew, and I think about the amount of the sweet, I'd like to have in my cup today. One for the two lump, three lump, four. No half of one, no less no more. Just give me a chance, let me make it mine. I'd like a medium blend of that piece of pie.
Not too bitter, not too sweet... Medium. Just enough to start my beat... Medium. Not too bitter, not too sweet... Medium. Just enough to start my beat... Medium.
Dinner time just rolls around, and I think I crave a steak but, I'm not too partial to the meat, when it's cooked too long and I'm made to wait. Not too much of the parsony, and just enough of the spice. I think I'd enjoy a medium-rare dish with a side of fries.
Not too tender, not too tough...
Medium. Not too little, just enough... Medium. Not too tender, not too tough... Medium. Not too little, just enough... Medium. Medium. Medium. Medium. Medium. Just a medium. Medium.
Come Thursday Morn' I smell the pits, but hey, it aint that bad I, could of sworn I bathed last week, and scrubbed like a good lad I like to stink just a little bit, just to keep you on your toes yes. The more I stink the more I think, that you smell like a rose.
Could you move in slow motion?
Everything goes by so fast
Just slow down a little
Save the best part for last
You speak in riddles
Your intentions turn me on
I'm yours forever
Will you love me when i'm gone?
You're an unfenced fire
Over walls we travel
Its you I admire
My living example
Your eyes are an undiscovered ocean far away
Any minute now keeping
Both poets and priests at bay
Don't get ahead of me
Could we just this once see eye to eye?
What you offer has me
Ask me how it feels to vie
Your an unfenced fire
Over walls we travel
Its you I admire
My living example
Its a photograph discovered a decade after
Its a cannon blast disguised as a firecracker
Its enough to bring a brick wall to its knees
And sing, please
Could you move in slow motion?
Everything goes by so fast
Just slow down a little
Save the best part for last
You're an unfenced fire
Over walls we've travel
Its you I admire
My living example
7 am, the garbage truck
Beeps as it backs up
And I start my day thinking about
What I've thrown away
Could I push rewind?
All the credits strewn in signifying the end
But I missed the best part
Could we please go back to the start?
Forgive my indecision
Then again, then, then again, then again
You're always first when
No one's on your side
But then again, then, then again, then again
The day will come when
When I want off that ride
11 am, by now you would think
That I would be up
But my bedsheets shade
The heated of choices I made
Now, what did I find?
I never thought I could want someone so much
'Cause now you're not here
And I'm knee deep in my own fear
Forgive my indecision, I am only a man
Then again, then, then again, then again
You're always first when
No one's on your side
But then again, then again, again, again, then again
The day will come when
I want off that ride
12 pm and my dusty telephone rings
I get up from my pillow
Could it be?
I hope it's you, it's you
Then again, then, then again, then again
You're always first when
No one's on your side
But then again, then again, again, again, then again
The day has come
Bowing down to an angle cast out by God
Worshipping a deceitful enemy
Who's laughing at their pride in following him
Considering everyone to be merely human pigs
Under his cunning and evil eyes
CHORUS
A multitude is in total chaos
Knowing not the deceived ones that they are
Asking for power, richness and desire
The price that they must pay
Is their souls thrown into a cauldron of fire
By being weak and blind
The fools disrespect the Christian houses of God
They are the opposite of all that is Holy
Locked in cages of sins
How can they reject the creator of all living things
The almighty God hears the prayers from Holy priests
And Christians alike, forgiveness for them in at hand
But curses shall fall upon those that refuse to repent
God's only begotten son was scoured, mocked and put
To death and resurrected on the third day
Proved his powers to demonstrative
How goodness always prevails
Followers of damnation march on in their darkest ways
Failing to see and admit the truth that Christ left for
Us today
CHORUS
A multitude is in total chaos
Knowing not the deceived ones that they are
I'd like to close my eyes and go numb
But there's a cold wind coming from
The top of the highest high rise today
Its not a breeze cuz it blows hard
Yes and it wants me to discard the
The humanity I know, watched the warmth blow away
So don't let the world bring you down
Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold
Remember why you came and while you're alive
Experience the warmth before you grow old
So do you think I should adhere
To that pressing new frontier
And leave in my wake, a trail of fear
Should I hold my head up high
And throw a wrench and spokes by
I'm leaving the air behind me clear
So don't let the world bring you down
Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold
Remember why you came and while you're alive
Experience the warmth before you grow old
So don't let the world bring you down
Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold
Remember why you came and while you're alive
Experience the warmth before you grow old
Isn't it strange that a gift could be an enemy
Isn't it weird that a privilege could feel like a chore
Maybe its me, but this life isn't going anywhere
Maybe if we looked hard enough we could find a back door
Find yourself a back door
I see you in line dragging your feet
You have my sympathy
The day you were born you were born free
That is your privilege
Isn't it strange that the man standing in front of me
Doesn't have a clue why he's waiting or what he's waiting for
Maybe its me but I'm sick of wasting energy
Maybe if I look in my heart, I can find a back a door
Find yourself a back door
I see you in line dragging your feet
You have my sympathy
The day you were born you were born free
That is your
That is your privilege
Find yourself a back door
I see you in line dragging your feet
You have my sympathy
The day you were born you were born free
That is your privilege
I see you in line dragging your feet
You have my sympathy
The day you were born you were born free
That is your
Alone in their destination
Wandering thru this violent life
A part of all misconception from their past
And now thrown out to the street to rot
Painful screams never heard
Hung on the wings of death
Germs are what they seem
For the rich they have no need
Left in the cold in crucial places
Feeling the horrors of real life
Places to places, no where to go
Agonizing pain and no one seems to care
Trying to revive 'em for a higher place
But no one seems to give any support
They hear their torment call
Disarmed from an endless war
Aimed by all kinds of poverty
Vagabonds you will find in all types of societies
Resting in the underground of this materialistic inferno
[Chorus:]
Mortify
In hostility of human injustice
They are living in a world of darkness
In which the light seems far away
[Lead]
No justice
Blamed for someone else's deeds
Humiliation
Because they are poor
Treated harshly
[Lead]
Is this what they call the advancement of mankind
Why men want to rule the space
While they can't even solve the problems of the earth
So much said, but so little done
Blinded and devoured by our greed
Facing all the worries of our minds
We can't feel what is happening in the world around us
Turbulence is the reasons which we all must face
Crossing the line of stupidity and discrimination
Is one of the reasons which makes us ignore
The actual state of the moribund
Breaking down their hope to pieces
Destitution increases in front of their own miserable lives
[Repeat chorus]
[Lead]
Days passed
Injured ones dying fast
Marsh temperatures
The whips of cold winds
Are frosting their bodies on the attack
Feeling the rigor mortis stage alive
Reaching to the ultimate muscular paralysis
[Lead]
Alone in their destination
Wandering thru this violent life

CHORUS
Mortify
In hostility of human injustice
Some say that they're not concerned
But never willing to take their burdens
Let's hope it's not your skin
Which is rotting of sins
CHORUS
Mortify
In hostility of human injustice
They are living in a world of darkness
In which the light seems far away
No justice
Blamed for someone else's deed
Humiliation
Because they are poor
Treated harshly
Is this what they call the advancement of mankind
Why men want to rule the space
While they can't even solve the problems of the earth
Where is our humane sense now
So much said, but so little done
Blinded and devoured by our greed
Facing all the worries of our minds
We can't feel what is happening in the world around us
turbulence is the conflict which we all must face
Crossing the line of stupidity and discrimination

Mortify
In hostility of human injustice
Days passed
Injured ones dying fast
Harsh temperatures
The whips of cold winds
Are frosting their bodies on the attack
Feeling the rigor mortis stage alive
Reaching to the ultimate muscular paralysis
Peaceful mission thru the air
Suddenly caught unware
Panic rises, lives in despair
Fasten the seat belts, praying to survive
All the memories of their lives
Flashes thru their minds
As the emergency landing is occuring at the time
To the cold, white deserted ground
Shock occurs in the violent crash
It's a morbid nightmare
Bodies torn to an unnatural position
Mutilated until unrecognazable form
[Lead]
Survivors trapped, afflicted pain
Of body and mind, screaming for help
Undergoing tremendous feelings of death
Agony
Misfortune
Misery
Tragedy
Torment
It all adds to an unpleasant destiny
Famish
Extreme hunger
Nourishment supplies ran out
Organism weakens each moment
Cannibalistic action the only way
[Lead]
Crying to god for forgiveness
As the slices of flesh are being devoured
From the dead corpses
There's no choice
Either choose life or death
Lowring themselves to a point
They would never thought to get
A living inferno where rational thoughts became repulsive
A place where the living needed the dead
Shocked by the scars of terror
A memory that they will never forget
For the victims of the freezing torment
Hades on the Earth
Condemned cities
From evil populations
Violence, fatal crimes
Chaos will lead us to destruction
The streets lost it's freedom to be crossed
Imprisonment at any time
When darkness takes it's proper place
Fear closing in
When the scenes terrorize honest citizens
Disgust multiples
Serious acts committed every day
Fighting to survive in this labyrinth
Of stone and steel
Always unaware when and where
The assault can actually occur
[Chorus:]
Curse of the damned cities
Crucial habitats
Following the way of criminal instincts
Curse of the damned cities
Unrighteous dwelling
Decaying towards it's uncontrollable destiny
Dreams of a civilization
Of peace and harmony lies far away
Are you alone in this fight
To correct those corrupted societies
Justice is a word that is fading real fast
Guilty running free as the victims are suffering
From the fact that there is no escape
Feeling that their securities not strong enough yet
Thefts, rapes, murders growing to a numerous rate
We never seem to learn that this is an endless war
Is the economy provoking it
Or is it just the ignorant side of a human being
Evil suppress intermittenly every line
Haunting frequently
The streets are the battlefield
To those individual warriors
Where each other in a conventional war
Mandatory action of survival
[Lead]
[Repeat chorus]
[Lead]
Brutality growing, it never stops
For centuries it seems to be getting worse
Harshly tumultuous mobs
Is home a safe place
If now the danger is spreading across the land
Like an epidemic without any cure
We will never learn from our mistakes
The more we stop, the more will emerge
The experiences are the lesson to make us fear
[Repeat chorus]
Technology
Inventions that shine
Only hope and thoughts that reflects in our minds
Manmade machineries
Futuristic and advanced devices
Trying to get it right every time
Not accepting the pain of failure
When back to the starting point
Again they will try
[Chorus:]
A first
Second
And a third time
To a certain accuracy that is absurd
Creations that can bring us to an end
In different ways
[Lead]
Religion and politics
Are all overrated
Like many things in life
A human
Will never be able to control
Those situations
Whatever mankind does and builds to serve
And protect us might also send us to our graves
Our ways to fatal errors
With no turning back
[Lead]
With or without confidence
And also preparing for whatever might go wrong
Discovering is a hard task to face
And finding the solution is what instinctively
Does our face until the world reaches to a higher ground
With anxiety
Sorrow
And pain
[Lead]
[Lead]
Creation for both uses
To whom it may seem
That it can be right or wrong
Human imperfections and method of corrections
A natural reaction
From the past until now days
An endless cycle that goes on
[Repeat chorus]
In all the existing things in this world
Men will never achieve the degree of perfection
That they search for
[Lead]
Who am I?
I am I.
Who are you?
You are me!
Why can't I get it straight?
Why can't I see it straight?
Shaft!
We can't let you,
we can't let you go.
Shaft! Shaft! Shaft! Shaft!
I'll get a new one, then!
I take a look, a look around, gas limited.
I take a look around,
I tell myself I live again!
I take a look, a look around, gas limited.
I take a look around, I tell myself I live again!
Why can't I get it straight?
Why can't I see it straight?
Shaft!
We can't let you,
we can't let you go.
Up until this day;
I take a look, a look around, gas limited.
Up untile this day;
I look around, I tell myselfI live again!
Shaft....
I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds
Strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy, happy
I wish you were here
I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles a back lit canopy
With holes punched in it
I'm counting UFOs
I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment I am happy, happy
I wish you were here
The world's a rollercoaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
Nice car, where'd you get your ride?
A trophy, badge of honor, overcompensation?
Price tags advertise your pride
Since when did what we pay for colored cloth gauge our gravity?
Yeah you got your little world, picture perfect, its a pearl
Now go and try and sleep in the bed you made
You should be careful what you wish for
'Cause everyone of us has a devil inside
You should be careful what you wish for
'Cause all I want abounds becomes you
Nice watch, man, you got the time?
There's never enough and it always goes too slow, too slow
Yeah you got your little world, picture perfect, its a pearl
Now go and try and sleep in the bed you made
You should be careful what you wish for
'Cause everyone of us have a devil inside
You should be careful what you wish for
'Cause all I want abounds becomes you, you
Nice watch, man, you got the time?
There's never enough and it always goes too slow
Price tags advertise your pride
Since when did what we pay for colored cloth gauge our gravity?
You should be careful what you wish for
'Cause everyone of us
You should be careful what you wish for
I keep getting attacked by,
The girl in the black hat
The girl in the black hat
I can't find any shade,
But I'll be suede as long as I got a switchblade
I keep getting the eye from,
The girl in the thigh highs
The girl in the thigh highs
Whose iris is of jade
And built to persuade
And they're swift like a switchblade
Switchblade
Switchblade
They're swift like a switchblade
Switchblade
Nobody wears it like you anymore,
Nobody wears it like you anymore
Light like a feather,
Bright like a dying star
Cut those together,
Girl that is what you are
Wild eyes forever,
Built to punish and persuade
I lied to get her
But all I got was a switchblade
A Switchblade
So just give me the facts,
Who's the girl in the black hat
The girl in the black hat
I can't find any shade,
But I'll be suede as long as I got a switchblade
I think I'm getting her eyes,
On all American thighs
Her American thighs.
She got her black hat,
And irises of jade
And I got a switchblade.
Switchblade
Yes, I've got a switchblade
Nobody wears it like you anymore,
Nobody wears it like you anymore
Light like a feather,
Bright like a dying star
Cut those together,
Girl that is what you are
Wild eyes forever,
Built to punish and persuade
I lied to get her
But all I got was a switchblade
A switchblade
Nobody wears it like you anymore,
Nobody wears it like you anymore
I keep getting attacked by,
The girl in the black hat
The girl in the black hat
I can't find any shade,
But I'll be suede as long as I got a switchblade

Light like a feather,
Bright like a dying star
Cut those together,
Girl that is what you are
Wild eyes forever,
Built to punish and persuade
I lied to get her
But all I got was a switchblade
Yes, I got a switchblade
Light like a feather,
Bright like a dying star
Cut those together,
Girl that is what you are
Wild eyes forever,
Built to punish and persuade
I lied to get her
I'm home alone tonight.
Full moon illuminates my room, and sends my mind aflight.
I think I was dreaming up some thoughts that were seemingly
possible...with you.
So I call you on the tin can phone.
We rendezvous at a quarter-two, and make sure we're alone.
I may have found a way for you and I to finally fly free.
When we get there, we're gonna go far away.
Making sure to laugh; while we experience anti-gravity.
For years, I kept to myself.
Now potentialities are bound, and sleeping under my shelf.
Simply choose your destination from the diamond canopy,
and we'll be there.
So I call you on the tin can phone.
We rendezvous at a quarter-two, and make sure we're alone.
You are stellar
Meet me in outer space
We could spend the night
Watch the earth come up
I've grown tired of that place
Won't you come with me?
We could start again
How do you do it?
You make me feel like I do
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew, ho
Meet me in outer space
I will hold you close
If you're afraid of heights
I need you to see this place
It might be the only way
That I can show you how
It feels to be inside of you
How do you do it?
You make me feel like I do
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew, yea
How do you do it?
You make me feel like I do
You do
You are stellar
You are stellar
How do you do it?
You make me feel like I do
How do you do it?
Its better than I ever knew, no
How do you do it?
You make me feel like I do
How do you do it?
You make me feel like I do
No, you're not the first to fall apart
But always the first one to complain
You better get careful
Or you'll compromise everything you are
The world is a joke when out of love
Please come back to us
You're all of the above
I'm making a choice to be out of touch
Leave me be he said, he said, he said
Leave me here in my
Stark raving sick sad little world
Leave me here in my
Stark raving sick sad little world
I've never had unpaid confidantes
It's more than I would care to explain
But I have an open door policy
When it comes to blame
The world is a joke when out of love
Please come back to us
You're all of the above
I'm making a choice to be out of touch
Leave me be he said, he said, he said
Leave me here in my
Stark raving sick sad little world
Leave me here in my
Stark raving sick sad little world
Leave me here in my
Stark raving sick sad little world
Leave me here in my
~Verse 1~
I'm only 23 for another hour give or take,
I'm a fan or yours and I need a good mistake.
I'm not a sinner or preacher, all I have is slight of hand...
I do magic tricks for all the boys in the band.
~Bridge~
Baby can I be... the rabbit in your hat.
I'd swing if you'd hand me... hand me the bat.
~Chorus~
I'm on the road of least resistance!
I'd rather give up then give in to this.
So promise me only one thing would you...
Just don't ever make me promises... no promises.
... oh no promises...
~Verse 2~
I've never done this before, promises promises.
But I'm enjoying the illusion and the things my body says.
Now you see me, now you don't... oh how well you disappear.
What are you running from? And may I interfere?
~Bridge~
Baby can I be... the rabbit in your hat.
I'd swing if you'd hand me... hand me the bat. (x2)
~Chorus~
I'm on the road of least resistance!
I'd rather give up then give in to this.
So promise me only one thing would you...
Just don't ever make me promises... no promises.
On the tip of my tongue
An offensive is poised and rearing
My intention a bullet
My body a trigger finger
Yeah, my pen is a Pistola
I don't need to fear, fear you
Yeah, my pen is a Pistola
My secret arsenal
Is an infinite ageless ink, well
It's a fountain of youth
And a patriot's weapon of choice
Yeah, my pen is a Pistola
I don't need to fear, fear you
Yeah, my pen is a Pistola
On the tip of my tongue
An offensive is poised and rearing
My intention a bullet
My body a trigger finger
Yeah, my pen is a Pistola
I don't need to fear you
Pardon me while I burst
Pardon me while I burst
A decade ago, I never thought I would be at twenty three
On the verge of spontaneous combustion, woe is me
But I guess that it comes with the territory
An ominous landscape of never ending calamity
I need you to hear, I need you to see
That I have had all I can take
And exploding seems like a definite possibility to me
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world and it's people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me, I?ll never be the same
Not two days ago, I was having a look in a book
And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees
I said, "I can relate", ?cause lately I've been thinking
Of combustication as a welcomed vacation
From the burdens of the planet Earth
Like gravity, hypocrisy and the perils of being in 3 D
But thinking so much differently
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world and it's people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me, I?ll never be the same
I?ll never be the same
Pardon me while I burst into flames
Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world and it's people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me, I?ll never be the same
In my fantasy, I?m a pantomime
I?ll just move my hands and everyone sees what I mean
Words are too messy and it?s way past time
To hand in my mouth, paint my face white and try
To reinvent the sea, one wave at a time
Speak without my voice
And see the world by candlelight, light
I ain?t afraid to let it out
I?m not afraid to take that fall
But I've found beyond all doubt
We say more, I say nothing at all
In my fantasy, no such thing as time
Minutes bleed into days, avant garde
I'd show me your heresies and I?ll show you mine
We only speak in pantomimes on this carpet ride, ride
I ain?t afraid to let it out
I'm not afraid to take that fall
But I've found beyond all doubt
We say more by saying nothing at all
By nothing at all
In my fantasy, you look good, entwined
In my hair and skin and spit and sweat and spilled red wine
You?re my deep secret, I?m your pantomime
I?ll just move my hands, I promise you?ll see what I mean
Will I ever get to, to where it is that I am going
Will I ever follow through with what I... with what I have planned
I guess it's possible, that I have been a bit distracted
And the directions for me are a lot less in demand.
In demand.
Will I ever get to where I'm going
If I do will I know when I'm there
If the wind blew me in the right direction. Yeah
Would I even care
I would.
I take a look around, it's evident the scene has changed.
And there are times when I feel improved, improved upon the past.
And there are times when I can't seem to understand at all.
And yes it seems as though I'm going nowhere really fucking fast.
Nowhere fast.
Will I ever get to where I'm going
If I do will I know when Im there
If the wind blew me in the right direction. Yeah
Would I even care
I would.
I would.
I would.
Will I ever get to where I'm going
If I do, will I know when I am there
If the wind blew me in the right direction. Yeah
Would I even care
I would.
I would.
I would.
I would.
At first I see an open wound
Infected and disastrous
It breathes chaotic catastrophe
It cries to be renewed
[Incomprehensible]
Its tears are the color of anger
They dry to form a scab
To the touch it's stiff and resilient
To underneath the new skin breathe
Its all been saved
With the exception for the right parts
When will we be new skin?
As outwardly cliche as it may seem
Yes, something under the surface says
"C'est la vie", it is a circle, there is a plan
Dead skin will atrophy itself to start again
Look closely at the open wound
See past what covers the surface
Underneath chaotic catastrophe
Creation takes the stage
Dead skin will atrophy itself to start again
Dead skin will atrophy itself to start again
Dead skin will atrophy itself to start again
Its all been saved
With exception for the right parts
When will we be new skin?
Its all been seen
With the exception for what could be
When will we be new skin?
Until the 20th century, reality was everything
Humans could touch, smell, see and hear
Since the initial publication
Of the charged electromagnetic spectrum
Humans learned that what they can touch
Smell, see, and here is less than one millionth of reality
Fallacious cognitions
Spewed from televisions
Do mold our decisions
So stop and take a look
And you'll see what I see now
Its all been seen
With the exception for the right parts
When will we be new skin?
Its all been seen
With the exception for what could be
My hands are trembling
And my eyes are on fire
This house is crumbling
Left brain, left out on the wire
You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph
My past is perilous
But each scar I bear, sings
Monuments to where I have been
And melodies to where I am going
You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph
When will I see you again?
Still, life can only go so far
I need you in front of me
Saying my name, saying to me
"I choose the way you are
You, the way you are"
You make me happy
You magnify my better half
You make me certain
Though all I have today is your photograph
A midnight swim is what I'm needing
A careless will, a fast for feeding
I take to the deep where the lights been 'til now, asleep
Gotta break out and find what the day left behind
So into blue, begin an ark
The man was you, true and spark, oh
I take to the deep where the lights been 'til now, safe
Gotta break out and find what the day left behind
Na, oh, no, no, oh, oh, woah, no, no, woah
Whoa, no, no, woah, whoa ah
Water and salt, secrets like new
Arrive salt, a midnight swim
I take to the deep where the lights until now, asleep
Gotta break out and find what the day left behind
Na, oh, no, no, oh, oh, woah, no, no, woah
Whoa, no, no, woah, whoa ah
You could see me reaching
So why couldn't you have met me half way?
You could see me bleeding
And you would not put pressure on the wound.
You only think about yourself...
You only think about yourself...
You better bend before I go
on the first train to Mexico.
You could see me breathing
And you still kept your hand over my mouth.
You could feel me seething
But you just turned your nose up in the air.
You only think about yourself...
You only think about yourself...
You better bend before I go
On this page you see a little girl giggling at a hippopotamus
I wonder why? Wonder why
On this page you see a little girl giggling at hippopotamus
I wonder why? Turn the page, thank you
On this page you see a little girl giggling at a hippopotamus
I wonder why?
"Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't say things that hurt others," said pussycat
Pussycat, pussycat, pussycat, pussycat
Like, "Isn't that hippo fat?"
Fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat
Or shout "Hyena I hate you"
Hate you, hate you, you hate you, hate you hate
I found a sound in the house one day
If you know who lost it, I'll give it away, away, away
This sound I found said, "This sound belongs to a hot ray"
Ray, hot, pot, pot
Dearly beloved we are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life, electric word life
That means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you there's something else, the afterworld
A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night
So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one, Dr. Everything'll be alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, baby
'Cause in this life things are much harder than in the afterworld
In this life you're on your own
And if the elevator tries to bring you down
Go crazy, punch a higher floor
If you don't like the world you're living in
Take a look around you, at least you got friends
You see I called my old lady for a friendly word
She picked up the phone, dropped it on the floor
Ah, ah, is all I heard
Are we gonna let the elevator bring us down?
Oh no, let's go, let's go crazy, let's get nuts
Let's look for the purple banana till they put us in the truck, let's go
We're all excited but we don't know why
Maybe it's 'cause we're all gonna die
And when we do, yeah what's it all for?
You better live now before the grim reaper comes knocking on your door
Tell me, are we gonna let the elevator bring us down?
Oh, no let's go, let's go crazy, let's get nuts
Look for the purple banana til' they put us in the truck, let's go
C'mon baby, let's get nuts, yeah let's go crazy
Are we gonna let the elevator bring us down?
Oh no, let's go, go crazy, let's go crazy
Let's go, let's go, let's go
Dr. Everything'll be alright
Gonna make everything go wrong
Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill
Hang tough children, he's come, he's come, he's come
Take me away
Does it make you Indie? Does it make you proud?
To talk the world into a paper bag?
The body's state of, "I'm okay, you're not okay"
Yes, men too, can be on the rag
I'm over my head, I need a pick me up, whoa
It's easy to get high when you're standing on our backs, man
Will anything ever be good enough for you? Whoa
Stand on your own, hold your water if you can
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fare thee well
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fare thee well, not on my time
It isn't fair to mention, but it awes the crowd
Your fictional plastic alibi
So take another hit, steal another line
Did you ever meet a leech, who was good at goodbyes?
When you were down, I always picked you up, whoa
Why didn't I recognize that everything was never fine?
I'm kickin' myself that I shared spit with you, whoa
So fuck yourself and fuck this bleeding heart of mine
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fare thee well
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fare thee well, not on my time
When you were down, I always picked you up
Why didn't I recognize that everything was never fine?
I'm kicking myself that I shared spit with you, yeah
So fuck yourself and fuck this bleeding heart of mine
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fare thee well
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fare thee well
The ride's over
The ride's over
The ride's over
I have waited
Dined on ashes
Swung from chandeliers and climbed Everest
And none of it's got me close to this
I've waited all my life
If not now, when will I?
We've been good
Even a blast, but
Don't you feel like something's missing here?
Don't you dare
I've waited all my life
If not now, when will I?
Stand up and face the bright light
Don't hide your eyes
It's time
No umbrellas
No sunglasses
Hail and Hallelujah everyday
I've waited all my life
If not now, when will I?
Stand up and face the bright light
Don't hide your eyes
About a hundred years ago now,
thought I was left for dead.
Soliloquy, she was my...
A picture, a wake,
my metaphoric friend.
So then I fell in love with an irony named life,
it taught me this from that and...
a picture, a wake, you're gonna be hilikus.
History has a tendency
to block yout the popular beliefs
about the leaders of the time,
so glisten with my syllables and
ponder the thought,
maybe they should have
had to dedicate more to it, go!
You've got to be,
so good to be,
You've got to be HILIKUS!
So I took a walk out side
with my new found friend and the knowledge imbibe.
I figured I'd find another
with the same attitude,
yes, then maybe I could talk
to someone other than myself!
The doors are swinging wide open,
a positive attitude and the ilk in my pocket
had a lot to do with my new found friend,
the hilikus.
History has a tendency
to block out the popular beliefs
about the leaders of the time,
so glisten with my syllables and
ponder the thought,
maybe they should have had to dedicate more to it, go!
You've got to be,
So good to be,
You've got to be
To get up and walk away would be too easy.
So stay and stand your ground, just watch your mouth with me.
On the back of every right, there's a wrong looming.
So here you and I should tread as soft as these razor blades for boots will let be.
Have you ever tried to step in my shoes?!
Have you ever tried to balance that beam?!
And if you ever tried to fit in my shoes,
They'll never be quite as soft as they seemed.
(Thought!)
Unabashed honesty would be ideal,
But a prophet did once say that honesty is a lonely word.
So where do we go from here... Abandon ship now?
My problem is you made me melt and I don't want to be frozen anymore.
Have you ever tried to step in my shoes?!
Have you ever tried to balance that beam?!
And if you ever tried to fit in my shoes,
They'll never be quite as soft as they seemed.
Have you ever... Have you ever tried to?
I have never... I have never tried to.
Have you ever tried to step in my shoes?!
Will you ever try to balance that beam?!
And if you ever try to fit in my shoes,
If I had a dime for every time you walked away,
I could afford to not give a shit
and buy a drink and drown the day
But your pockets, they are empty,
yeh, and mine are times two
So why not make an about-face,
and accept the love I send to you?
You're never gonna be content if you font try,
try to see outside your line.
There you go, you did it again!
You act as if there's binder on your eyes.
Should I apologize if what I say burns your ears and stains
your eyes?!
Oh, did I crack your shell?
When it falls away, you'll see we exist as well!
Like a bottle with the cork stuck,
your true ingredients trapped inside.
Through the cloudy glass we catch a glimpse of you,
I guess the hard shell represents your pride.
Oh, if only it could be different
we could uncover the you, you deny.
Between two, a small discrepancy,
one complicates and one simplifies.
TAKE THOSE FUCKING BLINDERS OFF YOUR EYES!!
So if I had a dime for every time you walked away,
you could bet your bottom dollar that
You almost had me there
It was the batting lashes that gave you away
You're bold beyond repair
And there's an absence, today
Of defiance
Our most awakened inclination
And your elegant abberation
Something's happening
All the rebels and devils have come to naught
But hear your sirening
And who would unring your bell
Defiance
Our most awakened inclination
Of Defiance
On my way home, police car pulled me over
After they left, I puttered out of gas
Triple-A' came, but my card was expired
I had to walk home and of course
It rained half the time
I tried to get some shut eye
Then I was abducted
They put cold things in my butt
They sampled a bit of my D.N.A.
They left me on top of my sheets
I dreamt I went potty then woke up drenched in me
This day sucked the hardest ever
I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today
A little bit less than nothing would go my way
I got up to toss my soiled sheets
The hallway was dark and I stubbed my big toe
It was then that I sensed the irony
(Burning me)
Then I heard the voice say
"Come sail aboard S.S. Nepenthe"
I suppose I'm to blame for getting pulled over
I guess I'm the culprit for running out of gas
Let's assume I'm the guy who didn't pay his 'Triple-A' fee
In actuality, I let the zetas probe me
Yesterday was all my fault
I let negativity get the better of me
Thank goodness for the bathtubs and suds
Walking alone tonight 'cause I've only got room for two
Me and my burdened black heart, it's all we know how to do
Yet I look for a bigger bang than the kind I continually see
Sick of all this inertia I want you to mend me
Lover, can you help me?
I'm a child lost in the woods
A black heart pollutes me and I think
You're a mountain that I'd like to climb
Not to conquer but to share in the view
Pulled by a false inertia, pushed out by circumstance
Pistol firing at my feet that's coercing me to dance
Yet I look for a bigger bang than the kind I'm sorry to know
Here I am first foot of the climb, watch me go
Lover, can you help me?
I'm a child lost in the woods
A lit path eludes me and I think
You're a mountain that I'd like to climb
Not to conquer but to share in the view
You're a bonfire and I'm gathered 'round you
Set this old black heart inertia aflame
Send it away, send it away
Send it away, send it away
Send it away, send it away
Send it away, send it away
You're a mountain that I'd like to climb
Not to conquer but to share in the view
You're a bonfire and I'm gathered 'round you
Set this old black heart inertia aflame
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
Set it aflame, send it away
It cuts the music with so much class
P S P O
I met the day, feeling cheaper than usual
I guess you could say that I'm on sale
So take what you can while you can
Shop now intensive
I could snap at any moment
And I might feel more expensive, oh
I don't owe anything to you, I don't owe anything to you
You don't you know me half as well as you think you do
I don't owe anything, anything to you
I met the mirror, price tag hanging from my ear
And in that moment I went unfazed
So take what you can while you can
Less conscience slowly amazed more gold
I could snap at any moment
And remember that I was not born to be sold
I don't owe anything to you, I don't owe anything to you
You don't you know me half as well as you think you do
I don't owe anything, anything to you
I don't owe anything to you, I don't owe anything to you
You don't you know me half as well as you think you do
I don't owe anything, anything to you
I'm feeling out of bounds, out of bounds
I'm running out of time, out of time
I know there's no such thing as either of them
But its doesn't make me feel any better
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
We're out of time
We're out of mind
Out of mind
Out of mind
Yeah, yeah
I’m feeling overwhelmed, overwhelmed
It’s getting out of line, line, line
I know I’m not alone
Just adolescents, you and I
It doesn’t make me feel any better
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
We're out of time
We're out of mind
Out of mind
Out of mind
Yeah, yeah
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
We're out of time
We're out of mind
Out of mind
Out of mind
We're out of mind
The future is on fire, we're of a dying breed
Don't understate our relevance
We're the eyes in the wolves
And we witness the vultures feed, yeah
Stay wide awake, stay wide awake, yeah
Make haste 'cause predators proceed
Stay wide awake, stay wide awake, yeah
While all the vultures feed
Like angles in a sphere, we're of our own design
No more perpetual renaissance
With our words we make shapes
And our angles can align, yeah
Their appetites callous and menacing
It humbles me
When prey softly outwits its predator
Such is a sight to see
Stay wide awake, stay wide awake, yeah
Make haste 'cause predators proceed
Stay wide awake, stay wide awake, yeah, oh
While all the vultures feed
Stay wide awake, stay wide awake, yeah
Make haste 'cause predators proceed
Stay wide awake, stay wide awake, yeah, oh
While all the vultures feed
While vultures feed, while the vultures feed
While the vultures feed
Damn, this situation's new to me, why?
I see a head afraid to be himself,
I bet he'd to have a little
encouragement from the opposite,
come that side of the floor...Yes!
Egg him along, make him feel at ease with himself,
steal his clothes, leave him his shoes,
let's get this marmaduke naked!
Makehim feel at ease,
let's get this maraduke naked
so lose your head and go to pieces.....
Don't you make fun of me...
don't you make fun of me!
I'm gonna be, gonna be,
I'm gonna be a hot dancer!
Oohh... now that the basics are down,
converse amongst yourselves.
But, keep an eye out for the next complication.
In other words,
grab the next motherfucker marmaduke,
who refuses to submit to these pelvic ostentations.
I can't wait until the syllables bend.
Let's get this marmaduke naked,
let's get this marmaduke naked...
so lose your head and go to pieces!
Don't you make fun of me...
don't you make fun of me!
I'm gonna be,
gonna be,
I am bottled fizzy water
And you are shaking me up
You are a fingernail running
Down the chalkboard I thought I left in third grade
Now my only consolation
Is that this could not last forever
Even though you're singing and thinking how well you've got it made
Who are you?
When will you be through
Yeah, it's just a phase
It will be over soon
Yeah, it's just a phase
Yeah, it's just a...phase
Call it women's intuition
But I think I'm on to something here
Temporaryism has been the 'Black Plague'
And the Jesus of our age
I know that I sound opinionated
Maybe biased and quite possibly jaded
But sooner than later they'll be throwing quarters at you on stage
Who are you?
When will you be through
Yeah, it's just a phase
It will be over soon
Yeah, it's just a phase
Yeah, it's just a...phase
Meet me here
On November 11th, come alone
Bring your mouth
and selective irreverence
We'll both see stars. Just...
One more tongue kiss before
the sky it falls
out from this cloud we're
hovering on!
(A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off!)
Kill your doubt
With the coldest of weapons; confidence
No more words
Just the sound of resplendent
tongues colliding
One more tongue kiss before
the sky it falls out from this cloud we're
hovering on!
(A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off!)
Here I am
There you are
On the wire connecting our hearts
There's a string, that is tied, to a kite.
There's a storm, in the sky
Now the clouds become electric
There you are
Here I am
Could I...
Have a...
It's coming around again
They're letting it out again, again
It's coming around again
They're letting it out again, again
It's coming around again
They're letting it out again, again
It's coming around again
They're letting it out again
When it comes, it comes abrupt
And it feels, it feels like trading brains with an imbecile
For real
Yes I feel emphatic about not being static
And not buying philosophies that are sold to me, no, at a steal
Just when you thought, it was safe to think
In comes mental piracy, and no
What I'm looking for?
(For)
Can not be sold to me
I wish they all would stop trying
'Cuz what I want, and what I need, is and will always be free, naa
(What I want?, what I need?)
It's coming around again
They're letting it out again, again
It's coming around again
They're letting it out again
When it comes, it comes announced
And it feels like a matador is taunting me with his reddest red cloth
And I am the bull
Yes I feel emphatic about not being static
And not eating the bullshit that's being fed to me, no no
'Cuz now I'm full
Just when you thought, it was safe to think
In comes mental piracy, and no
What I'm looking for
(For)
Can not be sold to me
I wish they all would stop trying
'Cuz what I want, and what I need, is and will always be free, naa
(What I want, what I need)
It's coming around again
Bat your eyes girl
Be other-worldly
Count your blessings
Seduce a stranger
What's so wrong with being happy?
Kudos to those who see through sickness, yeah
Over and over
And over and over
She woke in the morning
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a warning
"Don't ever let life pass you by"
I suggest we learn to love ourselves
Before it's made illegal
When will we learn?
(When will we learn?)
When will we change?
(When will we change?)
Just in time to see it all come down
Those left standing
Will make millions
Writing books on the way
It should have been
She woke in the morning
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a warning, warning
"Don't ever let life pass you by"
Floating in this cosmic jaccuzi
We are like frogs oblivious
To the water starting to boil
No one flinches, we all float face down
When she woke in the morning
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a warning, warning
We could live in a house outside of town,
we could build our own version of society,
well...there'd be no one to answer to
and complicate our lives,
we could be
the epitome of self sufficience.
Time to pay! To pay!
Time to pay; you've got to pay me!
Why should I?
Why should we pay for your mistake?
To carry on.
Why should we carry on your false integrity?
When you've shown us that you
can't even keep your nest clean.
So far we've put finacial gain
ahead of human needs,
quality of our lives should be prioritized.
Time to pay! To pay!
Time to pay; you've got to pay me!
Why should I?
Why should we pay for your mistake?
To carry on.
Modify your version so we can carry on.
To carry on.
To be conclusive,
I'd like to say,
you've done a super-fine job with your display.
I see now that you cannot comprehend
what it means to respect your life and then some!
To be rich, that would be great.
No, but it doesn't mean POO-POO without your nest!
So why should I pay for your misake, man?
Why should I?
Why should we pay for your mistake?
To carry on.
Modify your version so we can carry on.
The evening began as a positive swaret
and my abode was 4-2-0 G.
But little did I know that in the very next apartment
there'd be trouble on the brew for me!
Ubiquitous I wish I could be
because the clock cuts short my own day!
One hundred things to do before I rest my sore ass
upon the cushion that supports my array!
Can this be?
Trouble!!!
So if I may, slip you a tip.
You'd best stay away from 4-2-1.
Trouble!!!
So get high the green way.
So get by the green way...yes!
I knocked upon their door
in hopes of bidding them their welcome
and instead I was caught by an eye.
His pupil was wide open
kinda like a liquor barn at 3:00.
It was indoubadoubly dose derived.
It was then that they took me
and shined their light between my eyes.
He said "What are ya new?
Why are you here? What's the catch?
Why not explain in clear? Why you're peakin around?!"
I wish I could've just kept to my own.
My hospitality has been too well spent and I've paid my rent!
I should've kept my thoughts, on who might've been inside
so that my mind could sit and delude my pride!
I beg my common sense to keep my
neighbor out away from my front door
until i find a way
to hide myself from those in 4-2-1.......one
You're happy all the time
I just don't understand why I can't be happy too
Your smiles are salt in the wound
A slap upon a back that's been toiling in the sun
When will I get mine?
Or must I be a god-fearing, white american?
Oh everything is fine
As long as you're a god-fearing, white american
Why should the thieves have all of the fun?
Selling us water by the river, they don't speak for everyone
I'm ready to run and you're making me crawl
Selling me water by the river, they don't speak for me at all
The man about the town
The beauty queen, the paragon of civilization
But shadows cling to us all
Even those convinced that they're sheltered and immune
When will I get mine?
Or must I be a god-fearing, white american?
Why should the thieves have all of the fun?
Selling us water by the river, they don't speak for everyone
I'm ready to run and you're making me crawl
(MMMMmmmmmmmm........ hemp?!)
Step outside the bounds and take a
big look at the times we live in.
Who appointed you?
You're just an avid image on my screen.
So take your bias point of view away from
my organic institution.
And now we D.A.R.E. to think ourselves!
The answer's waiting content.
(Look into your mind and guide.)
The answer's clear as day open your eyes!
Now kill me.
You killed the very thing that keeps us
hanging on to our dear lives.
So, in a sense you bit the hand that feeds us
just to kill your prophet now.
And with the coming generation at the torn seems
this is what you call progress..
I call it shame!
The answer's waiting content.
(Look into your mind and guide.)
The answers clear as day open your eyes!
Now kill me.
What his law says.
What his law says.
What his law says may not be the stepping stone for you!
What if your brain,
unexpectedly and suddenly,
picked out things to flip around
and view a lot differently?
What if blue sky,
all of a sudden turned a purple hue?
We would shit a brick the size of all of it...
what if?
What if I was just daydreaming?
What if I lived in a pear?
What if my watch read 4:20 every hour, every day?
You can bet your dollar I'd be happy!
I forgot to remember;
I forgot to remember my pain.
Take me to your leader
or die by the fly guy!
What if mothballs,
hangin' around too close to microwaves
suddenly woke up and said,
"Take me to your leader
or die by fly guy!
He'll push ya' out,
no wings attached!"
Just do as I say, no mistake,
he'll blow away.
What if I was daydreaming?
What if I lived in a pear?
What if I had a mustard drenched cucumber
tied to my leg and I
did not want my pants to get dirty?
What if this, what if that?!
Go! I forgot to remember;
I forgot to remember my pain.
Take me to your leader
or die by the fly guy!
I forgot to remember my...PAIN!
My pain!
Forgot to inject my...cocaine!
Forgot to apply my...rogaine!
Forgot to remember...my pain!
I never think, I never thought,
oh maybe I'm insane!
I think I like being
way the fuck out of my brain!
I forgot to remember;
I forgot to remember my pain.
Take me to your leader
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, what? Smoking
We're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
We're smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
We're smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
We're smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
Damn, I really wish I could find my sack man
Must have got eaten by Pac-Man
If I had it, I could smoke again
Smoke with my friends to the very end
But now I'm trying to comprehend
When's the next time that I'll smoke again
I need to know, please tell when will we smoke again
I got a buddy, his name is Ted
He's got a problem going through his head
He doesn't know how to puff puff give
But I like so I'll teach him and I'll let him live
Every day we teach him right
When he defies, we have to fight
But at the end of the trying day
We says it's okay and we puff away
Just the other night, I saw you
You were smokin' not sharing and being tight
But that's okay, you are my friend, we'll smoking until the very end
The lessons that we put out, we order you to try it out
It's nice to smoke, yea, that's what we're all about
Smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
We're smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
We're smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
We're smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
Hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho
Spit it ya wet it, don't babysit it, just hit it, now pass it to the Left
I smoke, you smoke, we smoke, they smoke, smoking everywhere
I smoke, you smoke, we smoke, they smoke, smoking all together
Smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
We're smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
We're smoking, we're smoking, we're smoking the herb again
Imagine your brain as a
canister filled with ink
yeah, now think of your body
as the pen where the ink resides
Fuse the two; KAPOW!
What are you now?
You're the human magic marker, won't you
please surprise my eyes?
It's in your nature,
you can paint whatever picture
you like no matter what
Ted Koppel says on channel 4 tonight
So modify this third rock from the sun
by painting myriads of pictures
with the colors of one
I'm sick of painting in black and white
my pen is dry, now I'm uptight
So sick of limiting myself
to fit your definition
Picture the scene, where whatever you thought,
would, in the blink of an eye,
manifest and become illustrated
You'd be sure man that every
line drawn reflected a life that you loved
not an existence that you hated
So, must we demonstrate that
we can't get it straight?
We've painted a picture,
now we're drowning in paint
Lets figure out what the fuck it's about
before the picture we painted
chews us up and spits us out
I'm sick of painting in black and white
my pen is dry, now I'm uptight
So sick of limiting myself
to fit your definition
Ok...now the monster is awake
It won't rest until there's nothing left
Maybe ever and anon
I forget about the pain
Someone bending light comes along
and flowers lean towards the sun
Some people fall in love and touch the sky
Some people fall in love and find Quicksand
I hover somewhere in between...I swear...
Did I park my car?
If I found it I would drive so far from here
The city streets are dim
And my hands are tempted once again to give in
I'm having trouble seeing
I'm punch drunk and
I need to find a way back home
It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige
I will survive on this island, I am stuck
Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?
On the road my thumb is out
I'm hitching home tonight I am without a name
Where was it that I lived?
Well, never mind, just take me with you and forget
The lack of information
I'm punch drunk and
I need to find a way back home
It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige
I will survive on this island, I am stuck
Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?
I will survive tonight, I wander and I roam
Just looking for a way back home tonight
The sun is coming up
I think I've had my fill
Wait, who the fuck are you?
Where did I park my car?
Please forgive my
Lack of information
I'm punch drunk and
I need to find a way back home
It'd be a miracle, ohh
I'm having trouble seeing
I'm punch drunk and
I need to find a way back home
It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige
I will survive on this island, I am stuck
Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?
I will survive tonight, I wander and I roam
Just looking for a way back home tonight
Spare me a ride, a ride tonight
Spare me a ride, a ride tonight
On this island, I am stuck
Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?
We're given a garden,
And gave back a parking lot
(We got about fifteen minutes to go...)
Before this audience starts
Throwing tomatoes, yeah!
(It's not the end, there is more show!
We got about fifteen minutes to go!)
Survived the plague
Floated the flood
Just peeked our heads above the mud
No one's immune
Deafening bells,
My God, will we survive ourselves!?
I'm not an alarmist
But someone should break the glass
(and pull that red T-lever down!)
To get their attention
start lobbing the Light Grenades
(that burst and blinf them with the truth,
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!)
Survived hte plague
Floated the flood
Just peeked our heads above the mud
No one's immune
Deafening bells,
My God, will we survive ourselves!?
Survived hte plague
Floated the flood
Just peeked our heads above the mud
Wip off your face, we've come this far
Come on! Remember who you are!
(Remember! Remember!)
Come on! Remember who you are!
(Remember! Remember!)
The fact that you
You think you can
Speak to me
The way you do
It pains me to believe that you
Have never stepped out of the skin you've lived with
And then, and if
This day occurs
Your tongue, the taste
Will immitate a battery
The anti-equilibrium
Your stomach becomes the floor
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
That look, it was...
A light goes on
Up stairs, the attic is a place of solitaire
Isn't big enough for both of us
So who will swim in eel infested oceans
Kiss and say goodbye
because the tide is coming up and in
Yeah, water, water, water everywhere!
And every chance to sink!
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
That look, it was so priceless
It's a proclamation
Of the things you aren't
The ways you wish you were
A split second
Percieving of the way you really look to everyone of them
I wish that you could see because
I wish that you could see
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
To resist is to piss in the wind
Anyone who does will end up smelling
Knowing this, why do I defy?
Because my inner voice is yelling
There is a fist pressing against
Anyone who thinks something compelling
Our intuit we're taught to deny
And our soul we're told is for selling
Get out from under them
Resist and multiply
Get out from under precipice and see the sky
Get out from under them
Resist, unlearn, defy
Get out from under precipice and see the sky
To resist is to piss in the wind
Anyone who does will end up smelling
Knowing this, why do I defy?
Because my inner voice is yelling
There is a fist pressing against
Anyone who thinks something compelling
Our intuit we're taught to deny
Yes our soul we're told is for selling
Get out from under them
Resist and multiply
Get out from under precipice and see the sky
Get out from under them
Resist, unlearn, defy
Get out from under precipice and see the sky
See the sky, see the sky, see the sky
Resist and multiply, resist and multiply
Well get out from under them
Resist and multiply
Get out from under precipice and see the sky
Get out from under them
Resist, unlearn, defy
Get out from under precipice and see the sky
I hear you on the radio
You permeate my screen
It's unkind but if I met you in a scissor fight
I'd cut off both your wings on principle alone
On principle alone
Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean on yourself, baby and
Step down, step down, step down
If I were your appendages
I'd hold open your eyes, so you would see
That all of us are heaven sent
And there was never meant to be only one
To be only one
Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean on yourself, baby and
Step down, step down, step down
Step down
Step down
Oh step down
You're!
You're!
You're!
You're no Jesus
You're no Elvis
You're no Jesus
You're no Jesus
Say you're no Elvis
Say you're no answer
Step down, step down
Step down, step down
Hey, hey, hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean on yourself, baby and
Step down, step, step down
Step down
Oh step down
Go on, step down
She was a new mean beauty queen, money, drugs, magazines
That didn't do nothin', that didn't do nothin'
They gave her diamonds, shiny boys, city speak every toy
That didn't do nothin', no, nothin' for her
You can lead a horse to water but you can't expect it to drink
Now ain't that somethin'? Now ain't that somethin'?
Yeah, when the world is at your gate, that won't satiate
Why are you cryin' if you offer nothin' at all?
Don't be a fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry about
Flash cars, booze and bars, trial and a drown in the scars
It won't do nothing, it won't do nothing
Even the best frame won't change your wet paintin'
Into the Mona Lisa, the Mona Lisa
You've got to dry your eyes baby, I know it's your party
And you cry if you want to, cry if you want to
Yeah, when the world is at your gate and that don't fill your plate
Why are you cryin'? You offer nothin' at all
Don't be a fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry about
A fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry about
Don't be a fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry about
A fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
The hardest thing is rendering a
Moment moving too fast to endure
But you abide and smile wide cause
I want to remember this for sure
You can give me guns and politics and
I'll just make a mess of it, you know
Give me all the sustinance and
The wiser wider part of me will show
Yeah yeah yeah
A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet
In dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening
The wider angle's yours
Yeah every empty one of us have methods
To quell the madness of this pace
But yours have bled and are running south
Like jealous Dior mascara down your face
You could take that wait and all that fuss so
Now just get the best of us, you know
Give me love not suicide and
The wise wider part of me will show
Yeah yeah
A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet
In dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening
The wider angle's yours!
Look alive... smile
Smile and look alive
Smile, smile and look alive
Yeah woah oh
A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet
In dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet
In dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening
The wider angle's yours
Look alive
Smile, smile and look alive
Yeah, smile and look alive
I was lost but now I am found.
A line was crossed, a vessel run aground.
The boy is gone, let's grieve and let him go.
He left at dawn, but it's a new day don't you know?
In the company of wolves I sat in silence
observant and afraid
He was there with the eyes like glowing embers
the man you see was made.
I was low but now I am high
It helps to know serenity from any why.
(oh)Something's wrong, something's wrong, when it all remains the same.
So face the fire, come into your name.
In the company of wolves I sat in silence, observant and afraid.
He was there with the eyes like glowing embers,
the man you see was made. Ohhhhhooo
Even I can't recall how many days I had been out there for
but when auroras lights cease to shine
I was alive i think for the first time
and vanity it falls in feathery folds
but she bites like loveless eyes
and with her belly full she called this right
of passage it was the longest night of my life
(it was it was it was...)
the longest night of my life
(it was it was it was...)
the longest night of my life
Even I can't recall how many days I had been out there for
but when auroras lights cease to shine
I was alive i think for the first time
and vanity it falls in feathery folds
but she bites like loveless eyes
and with her belly full she called this right
of passage it was the longest night of my life
(it was it was it was...)
You keep your riches and I'll sew my stitches,
you can't make me think like you, mundane.
I've got a message for all those who think that
they can etch his words inside my brain
T.V., what do I need?
Tell me who to believe!
What's the use of autonomy
when a button does it all?
So listen up,
glisten up closely all,
who've seen the fuckin eye ache too.
It's time to step away from cable train
And when we finally see the subtle light,
this quirk in evolution will begin
to let us live and recreate
T.V., what do I need?
Tell me who to believe!
Whats the use of autonomy
when a button does it all?
T.V., what should I see?
Tell me who should I be?
Lets do our mom a favor and drop
a new god off a wall.
Let me see past the fatuous knocks.
I've gotta rid myself of this idiot box!
Let you see past the feathers and flocks,
and help me plant a bomb in this idiot box!
From the depths of the sea
to the tops of the trees
to the seat of a lazy boy...
This party is old and uninviting
Participants all in black and white
You enter in fullblown technicolor
Nothing is the same after tonight
If the world could fall apart
In a fiction worthy wind
I wouldn't change a thing
Now that you're here
Yeah love is a verb here in my room
Here in my room, here in my room
You enter and close the door behind you
Now show me the world as seen from the stars
If only the lights would dim a little
I'm weary of eyes upon my scars
Pink tractor beam into your incision
Spinning as free as dirvishes whirl
I came here expecting next to nothing
So thank you for being that kind of girl
Could there be a familiar ring every time I sing about
Cycle the tears everything in life no doubt I, I
Reiterate to my jaw is off-set
But I'll say it again anyway
What you give it what you get
Look at you now, look at you now
You're put in your place, put in your place oh
All medicine, all medicine is smacked in your face
Smacked in the face again
Look at you now, look at you now
You're put in your place, put in your place oh
All medicine, all medicine is smacked in your face
Smacked in the face again
Smacked in your face again
Smacked in the face again
So when the door comes swinging back around and the taste
Of familiar medicine is abound on your breath, breath
Please don't come crawling back to me
'Cuz you'll know what I'll say
Brother let your knees bleed please!
Look at you now, look at you now
You're put in your place, put in your place oh
All medicine, all medicine is smacked in your face
Smacked in the face again
Look at you now, look at you now
You're put in your place, put in your place oh
All medicine, all medicine is smacked in your face
Smacked in the face again
Smacked in your face again
Smacked in the face again
Smacked in your face again
Look at you now, look at you now
You're put in your place, put in your place oh
All medicine, all medicine is smacked in your face
Smacked in the face again
Look at you now, look at you now
You're put in your place, put in your place oh
All medicine, all medicine is smacked in your face
Smacked in the face again
Look at you now, look at you now
You're put in your place, put in your place oh
All medicine, all medicine is smacked in your face
Smacked in the face again
Look at you now, look at you now
You're put in your place, put in your place oh
All medicine, all medicine is smacked in your face
Smacked in the face again
Ooh oh
There’s something about the look in your eyes
Something I noticed when the light was just right
It reminded me twice that I was alive
And it reminded me that you’re so worth the fight
My biggest fear will be the rescue of me
Strange how it turns out that way, yeah
Could you show me dear?
Something I've not seen.
Something infinitely interesting
Could you show me dear?
Something I've not seen.
Something infinitely interesting
There’s something about the way you move
I see your mouth in slow motion when you sing
More subtle than something someone contrives
Your movements echo that I've seen the real thing.
Your biggest fear will be the rescue of you
Strange how it turns out that way, yeah
Could you show me dear?
Something I've not seen.
Something infinitely interesting
Could you show me dear?
Something I've not seen.
We all have a weakness
Some of ours are easier to identify
Look me in the eye
And ask for forgiveness
We'll make a pact to never speak
That word again, yes, you are my friend
We all have something that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how we try
We all have someone that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
Oh, each other when everything else is gone
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
Oh, each other, sing this song, when everything else is gone
Oh, each other, when everything else is gone
If it's good to complicate then both of us are doing fine.
Just keep your eyes on your part and leave me alone to mine.
If it's good to instigate, we're a fast horse, bet on us.
I'm not calling you an animal;I think we just fight too much.
Hey now, in spite of this we're doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give us time to shine,
Even diamonds start as coal.
We're both aligned in frame of mind
But circumstance got us good.
And now you're seeing a side of me
I wish no one ever would.
Yeah, if it's right to pick a fight, we're
Fingers in a sugar bowl.
Love isn't perfect, even diamonds start as coal.
Come on, in spite of this we're doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give us time to shine,
Even diamonds start as coal.
Even diamonds start as coal.
We're incomplete and infantine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give it time girl, the fire feels divine
The sweetest things, they burn before they shine.
We think way too much,
Look at us losing touch!
A promise is a promise until...
Yeah in spite of this we're doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give us time to shine,
Even diamonds start as coal.
Even diamonds start as coal.
We're incomplete and infantine
It's 3 o'clock,
and we ask ourselves,
"Where are we now?"
It seems we've wondered out of bounds again!
(Over and over, we ask ourselves why we don't utilize
things that are stored
deep inside of our brains!)
I'm on my own and I can't see straight!
Am I so stoned that I can't see straight?
Man, I've got to find my way back home,
but I'm too deep inside
It's 4 o'clock,
and we ask ourselves,
"Where did I go wrong?
We passed my house at least an hour ago!"
Over and over, we ask ourselves why
don't we utilize things
that are stored deep inside of our brains!
I'm on my own and I can't see straight?
Am I sooo stoned that I can't see straight?
It's 5 o'clock,
and we ask ourselves,
"We need to get home! The sun is creeping overhead again!"
I'm way too deep inside to go home...
Track 6 of _Fugazi_ ---
When footlights dim in reverence to prescient passion,
forewarned my audience leaves the stage, floating ahead,
perfumed shift, within the stammering silence.
The face that launched a thousand frames,
Betrayed by a porcelain tear, a stained career.
You've played this scene before, you've played this scene before.
I, the mote in your eye, I, I, I.
I, the mote in your eye, a misplaced reaction, reaction.
The darkroom unleashes imagination, in pornographic images in
Which you will always be the star. (Be the star).
Untouchable, unapproachable.
Constant in the darkness, in the darkness.
Nursing an erection, a misplaced reaction,
With no flower to place before this gravestone.
And the walls become enticingly newspaper thin,
but that would only be developing the negative view.
And you have to be exposed in voyeuristic color, the public act.
Let you model your shame on the mannequin catwalk, catwalk,
let the cats walk.
I've played, this scene before, I've played, this scene before.
I, the mote in your eye, I, I, I.
I, the mote in your eye, a misplaced reaction, satisfaction.
(A debilitating speck of doubt that came from absolutely nowhere.)
You can't brush me under the carpet, you can't hide me under the stairs.
The custodian of your private fears, your leading actor of yesteryear,
Who, as you crawled out of the alleys of obscurity,
Sentenced to rejection in the morass of anonymity.
You, who I directed with a lover's will, you who I let hypnotize the lens,
You who I let bathe in the spotlight's glare,
You who wiped me from your memory like a greasepaint mask,
Just like a greasepaint mask.
But now I'm the snake in the grass.
The ghost of film reels past.
And the producer of your nightmare,
And the performance has just begun, Its just begun.
(It's just begun)
Your perimeter of courtiers jerk like celluloid puppets,
As you stutter, paralyzed, with rabbit's eyes.
Searing the shadows, flooding the wings,
to pluck elusive salvation from the understudy's lips.
Retrieve the soliloquy, maintain the obituary.
My cue line in the last act, and you'll wait in silent solitude,
Waiting for the prompt, waiting for the prompt,
waiting for the prompt.
Waiting for the prompt, waiting for the prompt,
waiting for the prompt.
When footlights dim in reverence to prescient passion

Waiting for the prompt, waiting for the prompt, waiting for the prompt.
I feel your drawing near
And I will show no fear
No pleasure be denied me
A hunger grows inside me
I need your fiery kisses
Thrill me with your icy touch
What mortal lover could
Ever hope to give a woman so much
Dream lover, dream lover
Deceiver, Reliever
Dream lover, dark brother
I'll open my soul to give you my whole
Man's greed has known no boundaries
His cruelty has no end
I feel desire as you do
So why need it so offend you?
Speak not your words of anger
Carnal acts by the Devil's will
I don't hear your accusations
Someone slipped me a happiness pill!
[Priest at Exorcism Procedure:]
They shall lay their hands upon the sick and all will
be well with them.
Lord show us your favor and mercy. AMEN!
[Incubus:]
Your outside, her core is mine
There's no way you can draw me out
I was there before your Christ could cross,
to see in mankind's eyes
Not my fault, I'm here to be
Mankind will die on earth, you'll see
Hell awaits the chosen one
Her soul is mine I'll take her down
There is nothing in this world
Which could stop me now, no
Hellfire awaits
Burn your regrets
Power in my veins
Incubus- Awake
Incubus- Awake
[Devil to Church:]
Sacred flames
On the sixth day
Of the sixth month
In the sixth hour
All witches, you might burn
The history you'll turn
You sell your truth, that ain't not mine
Keep telling on your lies
Feed my force, tell them more
You don't know what you are giving for
You deliver victims here
The Evil is in YOU, my dear
[Incubus:]
In the deepest night I'll come
To crawl into you
You cant hide from me
I'm in your dreams
My semen makes you mine
Incubus- Awake
Incubus- Awake
(Priest) From all sins
(Devil) From your wrath
(Priest) By your birth
Voices of the ages
Tempting minions of the night
The dark fortress rises above
Casting shadows to overcome
Haunted by the shadows
Of the lost souls who cry tonight
Begging for forgiveness
To be set free from these chains that bind them now
Deadly rapture condescending
In the veins of the chosen ones
Taking over good to evil
Fading faster dusk to dawn
Voices of the ages
Tempting minions of the night
The dark fortress rises above
Casting shadows to overcome
I see a dark fortress rising
Black plague for all to see
Hate more than the other
That that's your destiny
I can see a dark fortress rising
Black death for all to see
Kill more than the other
Then that's just blasphemy
Ride of your life
Taking you higher
As far as you want to go
Higher, higher
As far as you want to go
Higher and higher
As far as you want to go
Higher, higher
As far as you want to go
I see a dark fortress rising
Black plague for all to see
Hate more than the other
That that's your destiny
I can see a dark fortress rising
Black death for all to see
Kill more than just the other
Then that's just blasphemy
Take the ride of your life
Taking you higher
Where you want to go
Higher and higher
As far as you want to go
Higher and higher
Father, forgive me for I've sinned
Evil called my name
An ancient demon invoked in me
The one to shoulder the blame
Cast from heaven the angel if light
A legend yet alive
Scorn and malice was born in me
How pale was not life
I fall from grace
War in my mind
No love, no light
Just pain and hate
Incubus, incubus
[Lead : Mike]
Demonic possession drained of life
Empty staring eyes
A promise of fortune, eternal youth
A spiders web of lies
Deadly bargain what did I get
The cold caress of death
I cry for mercy, who owns my soul
But silent is my call
[Lead : Marco]
I fall from grace
War in my mind
No love, no light
Just pain and hate
Incubus, incubus
Incubus, incubus
"It's not a dream and it's not your imagination."
I'm lying in my bedroom restless at nights
And feeling someone's lying next to my side
I hear a heavy breathing - someone's next to me
And watching me
Sweet dreams now come to me
Your flesh is weak
Chorus:
I sense and know it's presence yet I'm asleep
Someone is preying upon my sleeping mind
Whispering
Calling, desiring
And squeezing with all its might
It's trying to take over and choke me
A nightmare seizes in a freezing grip
I feel cold fingers running taking a grip
This spirit lurking in my sleep
And giving in I'll sleep forever more
Sweet dreams now come to me
Your flesh is weak
Chorus
"The flesh is weak
Walk in the spirit
And ye shall not fulfill
The lust of the flesh"
solo: Kasperi
Chorus
The cold increased with darkness moving forward
the grey ground disappeared in the shadows
of the night that began to thicken
the light of the fire was swallowed by darkness
the spectre, the nightmare
a black hole in the dark shadow
keeper of the great secrets buried beneath the mountains
the days become long and gloomy
terror becomes anguish
prayers and kind words are of no use
the steps become heavy during the rest of the harsh night
head bent, in silence
nothing to see
nothing but the hissing wind to hear
until the dawn of another of nothingness and terror...
the air is thick
Even a raven cannot fly
a faint spiral smoke rises
as if the fire brooded from within the earth
distant and threatening sounds
echo from below
from the subterranean prisons...
everything around is dark
earth and sky... the eclipse reigns
the spectres king spurse his horse
he moves forward followed by the dark horde
the rock trembled
then a great red flash
the light ripped the sky
a blast of livid chain-lightnings
the nightmare is real
there is light at the end
here, now, only darkness
a voice: "Wake up.."
no one dies
When our powerful structure creates sound
The walls of the hall start coming down
You're thrashing and slamming like there's no end
The mob starts to get out of hand
Distorted sound goes through your ears
The pounding of the bass creates fear
You stop and breathe when we slow down
You have no chance 'cos our drummer's not fucking around
Now you're gonna have this torment
For the rest of your life
No peace, No chance, No sleep day or night
We're coming through your nughtmare you will see
So be ready to meet the power of...
[CHORUS]
Incubus, Incubus
[LEAD]
[CHORUS]
Incubus
You are the victim, because you betray us
You've got no place to hide
You can't destroy us we'll crank the decibel high
Our sound can never die! Die! Die!
The mission's not over
Preparing for your destruction
We'll thrash you with all emotion
You're running out of time
There's nothing you can do
We're taking your breath from you
Nothing you can do, Take your breath from you
We'll smash your skull
Came from the word
Only one word
Came from the sound of Incubus.
Want to see a thousand wings?
Open, you'll see behind you
Open them all at once for me
Be prepared for what you see.
I wil die before.
I will live untouched
(2x)
Listen to my thousand tongues,
Amplified by a thousand screams
Speak them all at once for me
Be prepared for what you hear.
Incubus, succumb to me.
Succubus incube with me >
Incubus, Succubus
There is another
That will be a meaning
When you'll discover
Your time will be lost, but we'll see.
There is another
That will be a meaning
Incubus spreads with your disease
Succubus under a mass reveal
There is much more than I really mean
There is so little to be [a few]
(fast part)
Succubus incube with me I want to be your symmetry
Succubus arise in me I want to be the harmony
Succubus arise in me I want to touch in harmony
Succubus you've got to me I've got to feel the anarchy
(2x)
(Whispered) Incubus succumb to me
Want to see a thousand wings?
Open, closing behind you
Open them all at once for me
Be prepared for what you see.
Listen to my thousand tongues
Amplified by a thousand screams
Speak them all at once for me
Be prepared for what you hear.
Damn, this situation's new to me, why?
I see a head afraid to be himself,
I bet he'd to have a little
encouragement from the opposite,
come that side of the floor...Yes!
Egg him along, make him feel at ease with himself,
steal his clothes, leave him his shoes,
let's get this marmaduke naked!
Makehim feel at ease,
let's get this maraduke naked
so lose your head and go to pieces.....
Don't you make fun of me...
don't you make fun of me!
I'm gonna be, gonna be,
I'm gonna be a hot dancer!
Oohh... now that the basics are down,
converse amongst yourselves.
But, keep an eye out for the next complication.
In other words,
grab the next motherfucker marmaduke,
who refuses to submit to these pelvic ostentations.
I can't wait until the syllables bend.
Let's get this marmaduke naked,
let's get this marmaduke naked...
so lose your head and go to pieces!
Don't you make fun of me...
don't you make fun of me!
I'm gonna be,
gonna be,
I'm gonna be a hot dancer!
