You’re paranoid that there’s truth in the form of art
You’re paranoid, its gonna give you a heart attack
You’re paranoid that there’s truth in the form of art
I’ll be the first
I’ll be the first person to lie
And I’m the first person to lie
Its what art is
Its what art is
Its what art is
It’s for art
We can’t go out tonight
Protesting for the last time
That’s where our heart is
We’re for the artist!
We can’t go out tonight
Protesting for the last time
That’s where our heart is
We’re for the artist!
Oh…

These things take time
I know it’s long
I called below
Did you hear me?
I was waving my hands at you
Above the sea
And look I’m drowning
I’m trying to stay afloat
For you
I don’t ever want this to end
I don’t ever want this to end
I don’t ever want this to end
I don’t ever want this to end
I want to make history
I went through hell and back
To hold your hand
And look, I was hiding
I avoided disaster to be here
I came, I saw
Now you feel me?
And I will stay awake
To be with you
I don’t ever want this to end
I don’t ever want this to end
I don’t ever want this to end
I don’t ever want this to end
I want to make history
I don’t ever want this to end
It’s just begun
Oh no
It’s just begun
Oh no
It’s just begun
It’s just begun
It’s just begun
It’s just begun
It’s just begun
It’s just begun

Look Back

You’ll look back and laugh
How did you want me?
You’ll look back and laugh
How did you need me?
Time is of essence
Went down the way
Promised Love and said that I would stay
But it’s my life
You can close the light now
I’m prepared
Am I alright?
I think I got it together
When I was a young boy
Desire was still
I dreamt of rejection
And I always will
You’ll look back and laugh
How did you want me?
How did you need me?
You’ll look back and laugh
How did you want me?
How did you need me?
No, no
A lonesome life
I think I got it together
No, no
A lonesome night
I think I got it together
Am I alright?
I’m gonna get it together
Time is of essence
Went down the way
A promise from Love, she said that she would stay
But it’s too late
You can close the light
I’m prepared
Won’t put up a fight
Because I’ve got it together
When I was a young boy
Desire was still
I dreamt of rejection
And I always will
You’ll look back and laugh
How did you want me?
How did you need me?
You’ll look back and laugh
How did you want me?
How did you need me?
No, no
A lonesome night
I think I’ve got it together
Am I alright?
Am I gonna get it together?

I wanna head to the promised land
This is getting old
It’s a funny feeling
Took a trip to a place beyond
And I was thinking about how
I’m just running low
The bags are packed
And the door is closed
Wanted to sell my soul
For nothing at all
I’m still stuck in the market place
I was thinking about how
I’m just running low
Follow
Follow
Follow
Follow, standing in
Follow
Follow
Follow
Follow, standing in line
From the sunlight
To the moonlight
I was dancing one step to get ahead
From the sunlight
To the moonlight
In the marketplace until we are dead
From the sunlight
To the moonlight
I’m still standing in line
Straight, forwards, and backwards
(how long, how long?)
I’m still standing in line
I’m still standing in line
I’m just running low
I’m just running low
Buy their products and feed your soul
Artificial joy gonna give you the feeling
Bankrupt in the market place
It happened again
‘cause I’m always running low
I’m always running low
Again, and again
From the sunlight
To the moonlight
I was dancing one step to get ahead
From the sunlight
To the moonlight
In the marketplace until we are dead
From the sunlight
To the moonlight
I’m still standing in line
Straight, forwards, and backwards
(how long, how long?)
I’m still standing in line
I’m still standing in line
I think I’m running
I keep on running
I think I’m running
I keep on running
Low
And I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
I keep on running away
I keep on running away
Let’s run away
Let’s run away
And I don’t want anymore
And I can’t take anymore
And I don’t want anymore
And I can’t take anymore
‘Cause I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
Let’s run away
Run far away
Let’s run away
Run far away
‘Cause I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
And I don’t want anymore
Let’s run away
Run far away
Let’s run away
Run far away
Let’s run
Away

I don’t mind, I don’t mind
I don’t mind, I don’t mind
I put our stories behind us
I put our stories behind us
I don’t mind if you go, I don’t mind if you go
I don’t mind if you go outside

I don’t mind you go outside
It’s cold and bright so deliver your last line
I don’t mind I don’t mind
I don’t mind I don’t mind
Oh lord
It’s death or glory
And I don’t mind
Oh lord
Let’s pick up the best line

And I don’t mind, I don’t mind
‘Cause I don’t mind if you go
If you go out smiling, greeting the silence
Go out smiling, greeting the silence
Go out smiling, greeting the silence
You can go out smiling greeting the silence
Oh
Go out smiling, greeting the silence
You can go out smiling, greeting the silence

And you can go out smiling, greeting the silence
You can go out smiling, greeting the silence
Oh

Bad Man

I am the bad bad man
I have no excuse
No guilt, no truth
My own postmodern blues
Terror in your bones, yeah
Terror in your bones, yeah
Terror in your bones, yeah
Terror in your bones, yeah
And I’m a bad fucking man
Losing all the faith
I want to see your wife
These selfish ways
Are hitting the streets, yeah
Are hitting the streets, yeah
Are hitting the streets, yeah
Are hitting the streets, yeah
There is no love
There’s only mistakes
I want to be empty
And I want to see defeat
I’m down in your bones, yeah
I’m down in your bones, yeah
I’m down in your bones, yeah
I’m down in your bones, yeah
I am the bad man
Forced to steal your land
I am the bad man
I am God’s man
I am the bad man
Forced to steal your fucking land
I am the bad man
I am God’s man, yeah
I’m going way down
You’ll feel it in your gut
This temptation
Glamorous glut
I’m down in your bones, yeah
I’m down in your bones, yeah
I’m down in your bones, yeah
I’m down in your bones, yeah
And I’m a bad bad man
You, take my hand
Give me all the money
and I’ll show you around
These grimy streets, yeah
These grimy streets, yeah
These grimy streets, yeah
These grimy streets
I am the nothing man
And I went down, down the street
And I was walking at night
And I saw this homeless man
He looking like he needs something to eat
And I, and I reach back in my wallet
And I pulled out a hundred-dollar bill
And I said hey man,
Is this what you need for your life?
You need this money?
I said, ah well do you believe in God?
He looked up into the sky and he said yeah
And I said, I said wrong fucking answer
We don’t worship no God no more
This is post Truth
Post God
Post moral
We don’t worship God
We just worship the George Washington’s
Yeah (mumbles)
It’s only money in these fucking streets
(mumbles)
Yeah
And I kept on walking
And I kept on walking
I flicked that cigarette
You can pick it up if you want it

Slipping Away
04:16

I’m slipping into, the afterlife
Was passing by
If you need me now
I’ll be by your side
One last time
Gentlest sigh
Plodding over the deepest moments
Like coming home as the birds sing to us
Watching as they fly
Watching as they fly
The strangest thing that I ever knew was…
You
The strangest thing that I ever knew was…
You
I wanted to
I wanted to
I wanted to know
What’s on the other side
Is it green and cool?
If I go someday
Will I see you?
The hour of our darkest moments
The afterlife and what’s beyond us
Withering away
Withering away
And I thank you for always being there for me
These bones are weak and I laugh it away
I always fall apart
I always fall apart
The strangest thing that I ever knew was…
You
The strangest thing that I ever knew was…
You
I wanted to
I wanted to
I wanted to know
What’s on the other side
Is it green and cool?
If I go someday
Will I see you?
Is there a heaven below?
Is there a heaven below?
Is there a heaven below?
I’m slipping away
I’m slipping away
I’m slipping away

Burning
03:53

I had a dream
That the State was burning
Into the ground
Our paths are crossing after midnight
A blackened state another surveillance sight
Watching over me
Oh no
False needs, greed, our system
Little cameras hanging on the street sign
Controlling me
Oh no
So, burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
No end
No end
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
No end
No end
Not much longer
We’re coming
Not much longer
We’re coming
Not much longer
We’re coming
Not much longer
We’re coming out
You’ve got nothing to lose
Our very own dystopian dream death
They don’t sleep, there’s no time for rest
More security
Oh no
Data, profit, flowing capital
Round and round, were taught that it’s natural
But the power is
You and me
But the power is
You and me
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
Burn it down you’ve got nothing to lose
No end
No end
Burn
Down
Burn

Body/Rain

I give my body to the rain
I give my body to the rain
Sweat and toil are the same
I give my body and all my soul
Long way home, and almost gone
I give my body to the rain
Leave behind the whips and chains
I’m headed to Freedom Plains
I give my body and all my soul
Traveling through this unfriendly world
I’m serving my master
I want to be free
Searching for answers
Deliver me
Searching for answers
Deliver me
Mother Nature
Deliver me
Deliver me
Oh
Serving my master
I want to be free
Deliver me
Deliver me
Oh
I’m serving my master
I’m serving my master
I’m serving my master
I’m serving my master
I want to be free!
I want to be free!
I want to be free!
I want to be free!
I want to be free!
Free
Want

Heartbeat

The voices, the voices, the voices, they’re coming my way
The voices, the voices, the voices, they’re coming my way
When you fall in love, do you think it’s the last time?
That you open your arms and try to embrace one
Life goes on!
The voices, the voices, the voices, they’re coming my way
The voices, the voices, the voices, they’re coming my way
I gave my love away; I swear I hope it’s the last time
I gave my love away; I swear I hope it’s the last time
I still feel the heartbeat
I still feel the heartbeat
When you start again, you’ll have thoughts of the last time
Of all mistakes, try not to repeat them
Let’s make amends
We can still be friends much longer
Stand up
Move on
Reminisce
Let’s go
The voices, the voices, the voices, they’re coming my way
The voices, the voices, the voices, they’re coming my way
I gave my love away; I swear I hope it’s the last time
I gave my love away; I swear I hope it’s the last time
I still feel the heartbeat
I still feel the heartbeat
