Lyrics – All

  • Evolution

Whoa oh there’s a steel plate on my madness
And the rivets are breaking free

Whoa oh these modern times breed sadness
Or I’m just so happy, I can hardly breathe

Why would you lie to me, why would you deny to me
Unrequited, while you lay down beside of me
Photograph my body, so you remember me
Cause I can’t see, where the emptiness gets me
So I type righteousness, dial enlightenment,
I get my response, evolution entitlement
This city’s so big, but not a soul in it
They’re long gone

You know that you lie
You’ll deny
Life in 16×9
You lay down

Whoa oh this YouTube generation
And their attention span starvation

Whoa oh seek love in moderation
Or suffer public emasculation
Castration

Whoa oh vast wisdom surrounds me
And watch it fail without USB

Edison
Ford
Jefferson
Bell
Wright
Franklin
Rockefeller
Zuckerberg

Whoa oh evolve or die in tatters
The hell with you, I’ll choose the latter
I said the hell with you, I’ll choose the latter

Death is certain
Death is certain
Death is certain
Life is not

  • Dinero

I just came into some money
Now I have got the law upon me

But I, I am very cunning
My friend, my friend

Kick it

But I
I’m something you don’t want to see
I’m beggin’ you to save me

Save me
Save me

I just came into some money
Now I have got the law upon me

As I ride into uncertainty
I’ll think of you eternally

My love, my love

  • World Comes Down

Lead me to your garden now
I can’t see too clear
Standing in your shadow now
We’re the last two here

Before the world came down
Before the world came down

In your thoughts I can survive
Your instincts lead my life
Your feelings I can hide
Your eyes will be my guide

Lead me to your garden now
I can’t see too clear
Tryin’ to find the reasons how
We’re the last two here

Tell me of the story now
How the east was won
Tell me how the sun fell down
What once was there is none

When the world came down
When the world came down

Help me
No please
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me here alone
I can’t go on without you

In your eyes I feel no light
Your strength is in decline
Your breathing’s become slight
You’re leaving me behind

Lead me to your garden now
It’s time I return home
Nothing to be done right now
Never thought I die alone

World comes down
World comes down

  • Running Man

Everywhere I run I feel your eyes on me
I bleed too
Just like you

Everywhere I run I am in constant pain
Why can’t I live
Why can’t I sleep

Walk away from me
Soon you’ll see
Your love for me
Meant nothing

My life, my love, my heart, my plan
I’m the running man
Electric charge for full control
Your chemicals

Live my life amongst machine
What it’s done to me
Fall upon where life began
Running man

Laugh, you laugh with me
But when I grieve
I grieve alone
And disowned

Walk away from me
Soon you’ll see
Your love for me
Meant nothing

My life, my love, my heart, my plan
I’m the running man
Electric charge for decontrol
To pay my toll

Live my live amongst machine
What it’s done to me
I’ve lost my sight
Running man

How’d I lose my way
You use you demand and-you-take
Pushed me into this state
I’ll never be the same

I’ve lost my sight

  • Morning Star

A scarf to cover her neck
And dye to cover her eye
He entertains their friends
She sits alone and outside

Sings her song into the sky

I’ll follow you to heaven
He speaks with his eyes
“Not enough for me”

I’ve read of a place
where love is there for everyone
He speaks what he believes
“Not enough for me”

Morning star I ask you
Morning star I pray
Am I so repugnant?
Have I lost my grace?

All I’ve ever wanted
Was to be embraced
To hear a kind word
To have a lovely face

Love an appendage of pride
Love is a thorn in my side
Levity only brings pain
Echoing her words again

I’ll follow you to heaven and
He speaks with his eyes
“Not enough for me”

The sun shines on a place
and love is there for everyone
Her pleas like burning leaves
“Not enough for me”

Morning star I ask you
I call upon you
Am I so repugnant?
Have I lost my grace?

All I’ve ever wanted
Was to be embraced
To hear a kind word
To have a unbruised face

The sun shines on a place
And love is there for everyone
Stretched out on their bed
He says nothing

For long is our way and hard
That out of hell leads up to light

  • Save Yourself

Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself one time

Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself one time

Fall into my bed
and break his heart
I’ll roll your eyes back
Make you see the stars

Who are you
To tell me what to do
Through and through
I won’t stop chasing you

Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself one time

Played yourself
Your frenetic self
Those complacent eyes

save yourself
save yourself
Believe I’m in my prime

Brace yourself
Put him on the shelf
Make yourself all mine

Red hair
Green eyes
Reticent
Your time has come
I’m on the edge of oblivion
Take my hand and jump

Outdone
Your man
Jettisoned
Slay the third
From his last living breath
I give you these two words

Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself one time

Brace yourself
Your frenetic self
I’m the fire in your thighs

Save yourself
Save yourself
Believe I’m in my prime

Show yourself
To the hand you’ve dealt
Make yourself all mine

  • The Lottery

(MC)
Congratulations everyone, you’ve won the lottery
Today you will be judge
The doors behind you are closed
They’re locked
There’s no leaving here
But that’s ok you’re supposed to be here
You’ve all won the lottery
Step right up and hand me your ticket
(End MC)

Single file lines
On our knees
We poor souls
Won the lottery

Guess we didn’t think
It’d come to this
A single judge and jury
To the narcissists

No more screens
No more likes
No more tweets
No more time

(MC)
You fools cut your own throats!
(End MC)

Now they line us up to die.

(MC)
You’ve cut your own throats.
(End MC)

I can’t find
Find the time
Tiny screens have made me blind

No one’s come
To rescue me
We’ve been called to the lottery

Can this be
A killing spree
We poor souls won the lottery

I dream of the days of old
Cobalt sky, fields of gold
I can’t find you there
I can’t find you there

I dream of the days of old
We sell our souls to pay our toll
I can’t find you there
I can’t find you there

(MC)
I am here to lead you up to light.
(End MC)

Remember a time
When we were young?
We’d think of one another
We’d bite our tongues

Now we sit and wait
For someone to slip
Drag them through the mud yeah
Just for a kick

Remember a time
When we weren’t betrayed
In each other’s arms
We weren’t afraid

These doors are locked
there’s no leaving here
zero signal
No social stratosphere

(MC)
3, 2, 1 FIRE
(End MC)

I dream of the days of old
Cobalt sky, fields of gold
I can’t find you there
I can’t find you there

I dream of the days of old
We sell our souls to pay our toll
I can’t find you there
While I die you simply stare

The lottery – a killing spree
The lottery
The lottery
The lottery – a killing spree
The lottery
The lottery

  • Mister Laudanum

She can’t tell them she’s alright
She can’t tell them anything
She cries to her lover every night
Away from the family, away from her life
She gets all her answers straight from him
Mister Luadanum

She can tell him she’s alright
She can tell him anything
She comes home and kissed upon the face
Of the husband who she’d replaced
Puts little Tommy off to bed

Turns to her husband she says

I can tell you
I’ve got love for our children
And I can tell you
Mister Luadanum’s just a friend

And I can tell you that we all will be alright
I just need the time to
Organize my mind

And he said

Wife
Love of my life
You’re all I’ve ever lived for
I’d lay down my life for
You, there’s only you
I can’t go on without you
We can’t do this without you

Don’t leave
Don’t you leave
Don’t leave me

And she tells him
She’s got love for their children
And she tells them
Mister Luadanum’s just a friend

And she tells them she’ll be back
Before the night’s end

She can’t tell them she’s alright
But she told them late last night
I’m leaving you and Tommy too
I need my high, I don’t need you

Lie with me
Lie to me
Mister Laudanum, take my pain from me

Lie with me
Lie to me
Mister Laudanum, ease my trembling

Lie with me
Die with me
Mister Laudanum, bring heaven to me

  • Chrome

They tell me I’ve a heart of stone
I tell you I’ve a heart of chrome
Your love is flowing inside me
Through my veins of circuitry

I can understand now
I was made for you now
There’s no turning back
No way

There’s no turning back
No way

The multitude created me
The architect developed me
Revenger, her defender
Revenger

“People look away”
She told me on production day
“The selfish pigs imbue malaise”
“I weep alone, they’ll pay in spades”

My life, my love you instruct me
Immolate thine enemies
Through the fold I hear the screams
Tread beneath this war machine

They tell me I’ve a heart of stone
I tell you I’ve a heart of chrome
Your love is flowing inside me
Through my veins of circuitry

Revenger, her defender
Her defender
Revenger

They tell me I’ve a heart of stone
I tell you I’ve a heart of chrome
Your love is flowing inside me
Through my veins of circuitry

Death created time to grow the things that it would kill
Gives imipramine lamotrigine to remedy ill

And we’ll live happily ever after

  • Skag City

See the rage behind these eyes
As we get fat Chicago dies
What was intended they are not
Born in a town that God forgot

Burn my homeland to the ground
Now’s the time, now’s the time

Release the hounds

On your knees

Hear the screams

On your knees

From the skies
Bring fire and cries
The battle for

  • Anhedonia

Anhedonia
Anhedonia

I can’t feel a thing
You’re miles away, no you’re sitting right here
Sitting right here next to me

These chemicals
Have robbed me, robbed me
Of my passion, my abilities

Anhedonia
Anhedonia

I don’t wanna feel you
And I don’t wanna see you
But I don’t wanna leave you
Incapable of keeping you

Anhedonia
Anhedonia
The high life is calling

Since you’ve been missing
The world has stopped spinning

Anhedonia
Anhedonia

I don’t wanna feel you
And I don’t wanna see you
But I don’t wanna leave you
Incapable of keeping you

Take a walk

Look to the cold moon & know
My sun it rises and sets for you

Anhedonia
Anhedonia
The high life’s upon us
The high life’s upon us

  • Comanche

Coming home
Coming home

I hunt him through his killing spree
Turns out he’s been chasing mee

I told him not,
I told him not,
I told him not to do that

I fear the sins of my past have returned to haunt me
And the cost I cannot afford

Whoa
Whoa
Comanche
Comanche
Comanche

I can’t see anything
Comanche
I would give anything
Comanche

I told him not,
I told him not,
I told him not to do that

I told him not,
I told him not,
I told him not to do that

Home again
Home again

Home again
Home again
One more time around

People incapable of guilt usually have a great fucking time

Whoa
Whoa
I can’t see anything
Your way
I would give anything
Any day

I can’t see anything
Comanche
I would give anything
Comanche

Long have I feared the sins of my past
Would return to haunt me
And the cost they ask I cannot afford

I command you stop your search he said
Then he shaved my head
Lord of the plains I am
The devil’s will I tend

I cannot count my dead he said
My reasons for bloodshed
Every dream I have
There is a monster at the end

Why’d you take my eyes from me?
I ask the comanche
Welcome to my private hell
You won’t need them to see

I cannot count my dead he said
My reasons for bloodshed
Every dream you have
I’ll put a monster at the end

At the end
The end
At the end

  • Radiant Sea (Instrumental)
  • Death of a Salesman

You didn’t have to do that
You didn’t have to do that

God had a plan
For me, the broken sales man
Tale of love and pain
My way
You didn’t have to do that

Step into light
Into night
I’ll laugh your tears away
But my pain
My pain stays

So why can’t I cry?
You took my legs, my pride
Now I can’t provide
You didn’t have to do that
You didn’t have to do that

Didn’t have to do that

I’ll see your face
Once more

You’ll hear my laugh

You say when
And I’ll open my eyes
Once more
And I’ll open my eyes

  • Stand Beside Me

8 weeks have passed
Since the time that we spoke last
I really need your help right now
Call me back is all I ask

You could send me
Glad tidings from NYC
Until then I’ll feast with friends
When blood does stain, let water cleanse

My friends
My friends
I thank God
For you

Stand with me
Don’t you ever leave
Stand beside me
I need your thoughts to guide me
Stand beside me
I need your arms around me
Stand beside me

8 years have passed
Since the time that we spoke last
I heard you met with our family
And talked shit about my release

Brothers
Brothers
We were
Before

To all my friends I call upon thee
Actions supersede apologies

I need your arms around me
Stand beside me
I need your drugs to calm me
Stand beside me
8 week have passed
Stand beside me
Since the time that we spoke last
Stand beside me
I really need your help right now
Stand beside me
Call me back is all I ask
Stand beside me

Since the time that we spoke last
Stand beside me
Since the time that we spoke last
Stand beside-

8 days have passed
Since the time that we spoke last
I’m fine, just fine
Is what I’d tell you had you asked

  • The Curse

To all I’d see in town
To all I’ve pushed around
A better man I’d be
With greater currency

Once upon a time I’d see beauty
Now all colors have a black lining

Made love to my cajun queen
Her voodoo has me doing her bidding

A curse on me these acts did bring
My days have become thunder and lightning

So much pain so little time
How can I fit this in my busy life

To all I’d see in town
To all I’ve pushed around
A better man I’d be
With greater currency

Cat’s in the cradle
Blood on the table
My sin shines like the sun
Do not as I have done

She wrote my name
Under her shoe
(She’s got) the evil eye
Baby’s playing peekaboo

She tied me up
(Drew an) X on my head
(She took) a locke of hair
Now I am the walking dead

Only then
(i thought) “Something is wrong”
The booze wore off
All of my attraction gone

She spat at me
(I asked) “What did I do?”
she replied
“Evil now returns to you”

Cat’s in the cradle
Blood on the table
My sin shines like the sun
Do not as I have done

To all I’d see in town
To all I’ve pushed around
Incapable of guilt
This life of greed & filth

She took my soul on burbon street
Said “with it my collection is complete”

Now I can’t receive love, give love
Feel love, a black spirit shares my seat

Tonight I beg forgiveness for the hearts I’ve broken
Loves I’ve left on a dime

Or perhaps I’ll do so tomorrow.
Whenever there’s time

Returns to you
Returns to you
Returns to you
Evil now returns to you

  • Lord of War

Leap from faith
Create, lay waste
Kneel before
The lord of war

The lord of war

Deny your God
Deny your wealth
Kill the source
Deny thy self

Live my lies
To die’s denied
Burn you down
Beneath steel skies

Beneath steel skies

Deny your God
Deny your wealth
Kill the source
Deny thyself

Deny thy God
Deny thy self

Bang your head
Against my door
And I’ll descend upon you
Your lord of war

  • The Woods

Awake to the sound
Away from the house
They chase me around
Try as I could
I guess I’m no good
No good

The guilded pavilion
Your landfill for children
Lies come with smiles
These woods go for miles

I can see through you
You’re lazy and you’re cruel
You packed up and
Threw us away

Awake to the sound
Away from the house
They chase me around
I cry as I stood
Lost in the woods

Collecting your diamonds
On our remote islands
With banging and screaming
These rubber walls are bleeding

I died on that night
You promised and you lied
Forgiveness will dawn on your grave

Now we’re in the place where we belong
And who’s gonna miss us when we’re gone

Awake to the sound
Away from the house
They chase me around
I cry as I stood
Lost in the woods

  • Take Me to Your Room

I’ll be there for you
When you need me to
Rescue you

And you
Passing secret notes
Deceiving the white coats
Clever girl

Tomorrow bodes good weather
We’ll escape together
Tear these straps of leather
Be with me forever

Whoa
Whoa

Donna
Donna
Take me to your room

Donna
Donna
Don’t say it’s too soon

But I
I’ll be there for you
When you need me to
I live and die for you

The world’s asleep
Now’s our chance to meet
Today I got my shock
Like a lightning rod

I won’t let them do
The same to you
I won’t let them do
The same

Donna
Donna
Take me to your room

Donna
Donna
Don’t say it’s too soon

But I
I would die for you
If you want me to
And I love you

Who knew
The cuckoo’s nest we flew
and the earth’s bipolar too

And the skies
are blue
There’s only two
Me and you

Me and you
Me and me and me and me and you

  • Live & Die on this Day

I can’t find my way back home
can’t find my way back home
Send me a signal flame
And not die of shame

I woke feeling so alone
can’t do this on my own
Live and die, live and die
On this my final day

I stopped the fight
with a comrade’s knife
Put it to his neck
Took him to an inch of his life

We stick together or we’re dead
Gave him back his knife
and he, he hung his head

I can’t find my way back home
can’t find my way back home
Send me a signal flame
And not die of shame

I woke feeling so alone
can’t do this on my own
Live and die, live and die
On this my final day

Can’t you see
Can’t you see
I’m tryin’ to be your friend

I never asked to lead
I never asked to lead
But now it’s up to me

I woke one last time today
Can’t see beyond the grey
Live and die
Live and die on this my final day

  • My World

Far from everyone
My place under the sun
I’ve got all I need
And all I’d ever want

Had my share of madness
But comforted your sadness
My world
That’s my world
That’s my world

I was young and I tried so hard not to be
The multitude, the monotony

I was stifled by the strangers, pretenders
Their phony epiphanies

I’d lost all my sympathy

To all I’ve ever lied
To all that I’ve made cry
Consider these apologies
I’ll dry your eyes

To all I’ve ever lied
To all that I’ve made cry
Your new life will pick you up
And you’ll get by

The day that I met you
I wasn’t lookin’ for something new
But your eyes spoke
You loved me too

We’d talk with an ambition
About what the world was missing
You’d forgiven me
And I’d forgiven you

To you I give my life
To you my beloved bride
You and me will always be
Through the low and highs

To you I give my life
To you my love divine
You and me will always be
We’ll never die

Far from everyone
My place under the sun
I’ve got all I need
And all I’d ever want
