Heh man
What you doing; what you doing to me
In your head there lies a puzzle
Please don’t expect to find the key
(chorus)
Find life; find life
Find a life you need; find a life to lead
Find love; find the love you are
Everyone’s dust
Everyone’s surely dust you see
Its a hell of a way to be
Its a hell of a way to be
Heh man
What are you thinking; what are you thinking i don’t know..no,no
What you are is in your hands
And we’re burning up now understand
(chorus)
Its a hell of a place to be
Its a hell of a way to be
Its a hell of a place to be
Its a hell of a way to be

Did you watch them fall
What the hell were they doing
Hit the hyperdive; take us somewhere nice
They were doing fine
And then they were screwed
Yeah that was their style
And they knew
This was planet earth
What the hell; what the hell were they thinking
This was planet earth
They had it; they had it coming
On planet earth
Planet earth
Planet earth
On planet earth
Planet earth

Ivory Towers
04:02
|
|||
It aint right, it aint wrong
It is what it is
It aint here, it aint there
It is what it is
Every twist and turn; it was controlling you
How your life burned
You were out of touch
And out to lunch; out to lunch
You aint got time to care; you aint got time to spare; no
They know how it is
In their ivory towers
They watch you, they watch you from up high
They know that they’re weak
In their ivory towers
As they choke; choke in the sky
They know how it is
In their ivory towers
As you wish, yeah wish; wish your days away
Wish the days away.

You don’t care and i don’t mind
I guess i’ll run into you maybe sometime
Sail away to some place new
I don’t know where i’m headed to
(chorus)
The people here are looking old
In their faces lies the world
The people here have paid their way
They’re getting tired and i cannot stay
The people here have things to do
They make look, but they can’t choose
The setting sun lights my way
I don’t know how, but i’m here to play
Our time is short and the night is long
We’ve gotta find someway to belong
(chorus)
Getting knocked down, getting up
Take your pill and just shut up

Politicians
03:58
|
|||
When the politician speaks
You know that he has spoken
When the politician lies
You know she speaks the truth
When the politician vows
You know that it will be broken
But still they look for you
Still they look for you
It's all for you
When the politician falls
You know that he's a winner
For the boardroom calls
and the money flows
Yeah, it's who you know
Yeh.. it's who you know
The politician's for you
the politician's for you

Where’s the monster
Where’s the monster you need
There’s no heroes
There’s no heroes left to see
The corporations; they don’t need a thing
They’re wasted. It begins
Broken people. Broken people bend
We will find the way
Broken people, Broken people mend
We will see the day
Sleepwalkers; wake up
Sleepwalkers; wake up
Broken people. Broken people bend
Broken people, Broken people mend

Help me free it
I’ve been chained up so long
Sunlight screaming
All those pretty words; all those pretty words they sing
Oh we let them in
I’ve got a secret; i have a secret
You should know
I have the answer; i’ve got the answer
You can know ….yeah
In your head; you’re life is easy
In your dreams you’re as light as air
As light as air
Take your poison
Wash the problems down the drain
Do not waste it
You’re gonna throw your life away
I have a secret ; i know a secret
You can go
We’re sick and tired
We’re sick and tired of it all
I have the answer, i know the answer
Listen in
We’re going nowhere; we’re going nowhere
Lets begin

The Beautiful
04:40
|
|||
They pull you in to fake you out
You close your eyes and say its now
And everytime you take the bait
And even here you cannot wait
And can’t you see you belong to them
And can’t you see this will be your end
Its so easy to shutdown
Heh, welcome to the beautiful
welcome to the beautiful
welcome to the beautiful
welcome to the beautiful
The screen ignites you hit the key
You see it all, it sets you free
Their sunshine world is all you want
Their sunshine world is all you need
Switch them on, invite them in
They talk to you, they know your name
Watch all night; they’ve come to stay
They’re reaching out, they see your face
They’re the people that you love
So be with them, they’re nice enough
And everytime you lose the plot
Forget it all, forget yourself
You belong here; it’s easy to
Sail away to someplace new
You belong here; it’s easy to
Just pay their bills and watch them play
Welcome to the beautiful
Play, Welcome to the beautiful
Play, Welcome to the beautiful
Heh, Welcome to the beautiful

You’re out of time
You’re out of luck again
We’ve arrived. We’ve arrived
Check the news; we’re on your mind today
Its all a lie; its all a lie they say
And we’re here for you
Look at us; we’ve made the bigtime
We’re spreading fast; we’re spreading fast
Stay inside; we’ll find you
There’s no escape, there’s no escape
Stay inside; we’re gonna get you
There’s no escape; there’s no escape
In the end
There’s no escape

Between Worlds
03:19
|

Meet me with my head exploded
Go to the other place
What we are, you’ll just have to see it
I can’t remember if i had a face
Flesh and bones are so overlooked
I lived to die; it was no disgrace
Fall; fall asleep; sleep
What you fear is all illusion
Ghosts from the other age
What you are; you’ll just have to free it
The letting go is just a stage
Flesh and bones are a deadly package
We live to die; it’s a losing game
Fall, fall asleep, sleep
Fall, fall asleep, sleep
We are here, but we’re surely gone
We are here but it can’t be long

The Power and Glory
04:12
|

Please, i need a little help today
I’m inside out and upside down
Fear, fear is what i’m tasting
Gotta turn my life back around
(chorus)
How do you survive it, do you survive it
How do you forget it, do you forget it
Ghosts, ghosts are everywhere i turn
My world is dust and disrepair
Eyes, eyes are what i’m stealing
Gotta find my way back to the day
(chorus)
I don’t know why, i don’t know why, i don’t know why it is
I don’t know where, i don’t know where it ends
I don’t know what, i don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to think
I don’t know where it starts and where it ends
I don’t know

Safe Hands

|

No need to panic; the cops are coming
The cops are coming; we'll be ok
It's not a disaster; we'll see the morning
For what they did they'll pay
Don't be afraid
The cops are coming
Don't be afraid; the cops are here
here, today
Don't be alarmed; the cops are here now
They won't shy away; they know what to do
They love the action; it's what they live for
It's what they live for today
Don't be alarmed
The cops are here now
Don't be afraid; the cops are here
Don't say a thing
The cops will save us
It will be ok
It will be ok

I am invisible, invisible today
You will see right through me, through me today
Just let go
Just let go
Just let go
Just let go
I am invisible
Just let go
Just let go
I am invisible
Just let go
Just let go
I am invisible
