Intro

2. |
Reactive
01:01
|
|
||
Stretched at the seams
pulled away from the center
No communication
eyes glaze over
every action has spin
every though didactic
Hide every nuance
always be reactive
This is how we live
this is where we live
this is our fucking world
Claw your way up
Lie, attack an smear
We're walking through
that looking glass
and who knows
what we'll find
when we're here
|
||||
3. |
With this ring
00:57
|
|
||
I take you hand
and put a ring on your finger
Everything's the same
yet everything's changed
That love is universal
is the most obvious concept
So a light bulb appears
over the head of the world
Taken along for a ride
We are a politcal football
our lives up for a voice
'cos they know that they're losing
Life is about respect and love
Life is about respect and love
Life is about respect and love
I take you hand
and put a ring on your finger
|

Left
01:09
|
|
||
What's today again?
I had to leave it behind
You tell me the year
you tell me the time
but you just don't understand
I had to leave it
I have to leave behind
couldn't shed no tears
somehow it just wasn't rights
and you just don't understand
I had to leave you
I had to leave you behind
|
||||
5. |
Too much noise
00:24
|
|
||
Too much noise
can't even think
these distractions
all of life's little details
pull me one way
Then the other
need a break
Need to turn it all off
Step away
pull my mind back together
pull me one way
then the other
|
||||
6. |
Good
00:47
|
|
||
Life is freedom
live is to sing
There's so much in life
that I can truly believe in
Life makes me smile
each day means so musch
This planet is beautiful
Filled with wonder and enchantment
Life is for living
to see, to hear, to touch, to say
Bonds between people
between neighbors and friends
Lifre is good
life brings meaning
to many ways to find love
so much to appreciate
if we just open our eyes
LIfe is freedom
free to find our own way
it makes me smile
to look up at the sun

Bumper sticker
00:58
|
|
||
You side wins
my side wins
Your side wins
my side wins
I put a sticker - my side wins
You cut a sticker - your side wins
I put a sticker - my side wins
Do any of us ever win?
These battles are sticky
'cos our worl's fucking stuck
These battles they never end
'cos our world fucking stuck
|
||||
9. |
Terror
00:25
|
|
||
Explosion
now we're already dead
A split second
and we're a number on the news
Our lives erased
for being in the wrong place
Our location
is the newest shrine
Little pieces
to be swept away
We're already dead
and we don't even know it
|
||||
10. |
Wake up
01:18
|
|
||
You think you need a tiger penis
You think you need a bear gall bladder
You think you need a shark fin
Well, wake up, you're full of shit
This world doesn't need
your supertstitions
your violence or your greed
Wake up!
You think you need a whales
for a "scientific purposes"
You think you need a elephant tusk
You think you need for to wearWell. wake up, ywe're full of shit
This world doesn't need our obliviousness
our violence or our greed
Wake up!
This world's not here just for you!
This world's not here just for me!
This world's not here just for you!
This world's not here just for me!

Taken
01:32
|
|
||
So many more years with you
they were taken away
So many moments I would redo
If I had the chance
but you were taken
you were taken away
and what I wouldn't give
for one more hour, one more day
and so I live somehow
although it seems so hollow
part of me will never believe
You won't be there
'cos you were taken
you were takjen away
you were taken
you were taken away
|
||||
12. |
Behind the scene
00:53
|
|
||
Behind the scenes
the laws are rewritten
the deeals are made
Sealed with a handshake and a wink
Another clause
another sentence
outside of public strutiny
bet we won't even notice
far away from any sense of deceny
of what's right and not wrong
Behind the scenes
bet we won't even notice
|
||||
13. |
What we are
00:35
|
|
||
Do we know what we are?çwhat we are?
Are we how we dress
or what's we buy?
Our virtudes and sins?
Are we this and not that
or that and not this?
Our belief systems, our "-ism's"?
everything we've ever seen?
Do we know what we are
what we are
are we what's after our birth
but before our death?
Are we completely responsible
or just actors on a set?
Do we build our houses of cards
and pray they don't fall in?
Do we know what we are
what we are
Are we our parents, friends, cliques?
Are we just flesh and blood, through?
Are we our thoughts, feelings, actions?
Are we what we do?
Are we the questions we ask
or the process we take?
Do we know what we are
what we are
we are orusleves
|
||||
14. |
Can I say it
00:16
|
|
||
Can I say "I love you" in
a song this short and fast?
|
||||
15. |
Welcome
00:23
|
|
||
16. |
|
|||
It's not everithing or nothing
It's about what we build together
Not me vs. you
but all of us sharing this world
I'm not your enemy
You're not my enemy
There's room enough on this world
for the both of us
It's not everything or nothing
It's not me vs. you
but all of us working together
I'm not your enemy
You're not my enemy
There's roo enough on this world
room enough for you and me
There's only us
that's what we have
just you and me
|
||||
17. |
Rule
00:41
|
|
||
Your decision
Your rules
It's your game
It's your game
No rhyme
No rerason
It's your game
It's your game
Off the top of your head
We all fall into line
|
||||
18. |
Too religious
01:25
|
|
||
You've found your place
in the world
Well that's great
now you sit on high
and pass judgement from above
Looking down with contempt
on us poor stupid masses
If we were only you
how could we not believe?
Well we can get by
without your holy wisdom
and we don't need
self-righteous bullshit
to get through the day
if you're so fucking pure
with such heavenly high standards
How can you explain
your callousness and
misplaced priorities?
No one needs youquite as much as you think
You act like you know
but you don't and never will
You're not chosen
it's all in your mind
You use your religion like a club
there's no god on your side
there's only you
there's only fucking you
|
||||
19. |
Diagnosed
00:32
|
|
||
Diagnose me
cos I'm disordered
Medicate me
create a cure
say I'm sick
I'm just so fucking sicj
Medicate me, please
make it go away
another pill
just another pill
make it up as you go along
|
||||
20. |
Polar bears are drowning
01:12
|
|
||
Polar bears are drowning
cos the sea ice is melting
If this doesn't make you cry
then you have no heart
The footprint we make on the earth
is like a boot
The impact affects everything around us
Don't mean to overstate but here it is
Nah, I don't mean to overstate
but it looks like it's going downhill fast
Wondering where we'll be in 10 years
What will be left?
Guess it all depends on us
and what we do next
can we change
what we think we need?
can we change
how we live our lives?
