Oh No

Oh no
Here we go again
FOMO
lost another friend
below
ice it dissipates
solo
navigate the end
Here's a chance to elevate
A way of dealing with the strain
Water on a window pane
Draw yourself another fate
Oh no... here we go again
Push it to another day
The moon will have a different phase
Slide it under hidden door
And wonder who you hid it for
Oh no... here we go again

Yay For Effort
04:02
|
|||
Hope, hope is just another word
regardless of what you heard
Another ring to be sold
for your fingers
And gold, just like the days of old
shiny to behold
Hypnotized into thinking
you have something good
Stained, another holiday
everyone loves parades
The ignorance
shared and nurtured
Safe, safe as a hand grenade
praying to their charade
hypnotized
(it's for your own good)
And we say yay for effort
Fade, and forced to stay away
No matter what the fate proclaims
Head down like they told you
Prey, a Target on a sunny day
Believing what they have to say
Even as it breaks you
And we say yay for effort

Listen Up
03:40
|
|||
Staring at machinery
instead of at the greenery
And then one day it all just went away
Root, root, root, for the home team
The bottom of the ninth it seems
The winning run is just too far away
Blame it on the circuitry - standard grade hypocrisy!
An ignorance that's far outworn its stay
So listen up... listen up
So long working to success
all it did was make this mess
as fingers point in every way but up
Lost the plot along the way
living now just for the day
Tomorrow has to make its own 'good luck'
Leaders preserve anything
making sure they stay the king
Tossing scraps as long as they're amused
So listen up... listen up,,,

Send love, send money
Send anything you can find
No time, just feel it
Figure out what to leave behind
There's so much coordination
Lift your eyes up to the sky
Settle in the situation
Today is not the day to die
It's so nice to see you
Afraid I must be moving on!
Disguise that feeling
a trip to Budokan
It's so nice to see you
Afraid I must be moving on!

Let It All Go Down
04:00
|
|||
Talk is cheap and still you paid for
Anyone to make the grade
Leading in a different way
Underrated, underrated
Critics with their cheap charade
Lemon to make lemonade
The battle won the war was lost
Left wreckage as your final cost
Let it all go down, let it all go down
To fall asleep listening to
Words you couldn't ever sing
Complexity but mastery
A different type of history
The shot's your own a secret throne
Repeat the story make it your own
Went your own way, hey, that's ok
A legacy to celebrate
Let it all go down, let it all go down
I can hear you whispering
I can hear you listening

Fire Drill
03:09
|
|||
There's a fire drill in your head
And you're wishing you were dead
Try to rearrange the pieces all instead
There's a fire drill in your head
Was it something I said?
Got you taking different people to your bed
And no one ever drove
No one ever drove
No one ever
Took the wheel and said
'It's time to go'.
Took the wheel and said
'It's time to go'.
Took the wheel and said
'It's time to go'.

Comfort Vendetta
03:56
|

You've got comfort vendetta
I know you hold against me
It's time to keep it under lock and key
Just walking all around it
Keep steady the target moves
Delight in some great fantasy
for you and me
Cause you know
I'll settle down and take it slow
fall down on the ground
as the garden grows
feeling all the things
for me
They say time heals our sorrow
but time is all made up
Take in the last great mystery
You've got comfort vendetta
I know you'll hold against me
It's time to keep it under lock and key
for you and me
Cause you know
I'll settle down and take it slow
fall down on the ground
as the garden grows
out do it all night
and never tell
feeling all the things
for you and me
for you and me
yeah

Lonely Satellite
03:53
|
|||
Up on the highest ladder
is a man we all know
Shaking his fist at a neighbor
or a car moving too slow
Secretly, he’s just befuddled
so confused by this life
taking out all that frustration
on his kids and his wife
Cause this isn’t what he was promised
screaming up into the night
hoping to see all the comets
another lonely satellite
So lead us not into temptation
just deliver us all a win!
Cracking the culture’s foundation
a real pickle we’re all in
And who’s left to trust in the ether?
Poison the airways and skies
And even the best and the brightest
need chemical compromise
Cause this isn’t what he was promised
screaming up into the night
hoping to see all the comets
another lonely satellite
Way up high

Silly Me
03:38
|
|||
Silly me!
I thought there was something to be
Hide and seek
It makes no difference in your family tree
Courageous! Inviting!
And the day’s so exciting
It’s all just minutia
Don’t let anybody fool ya
The morning, the evening
the coming and the leaving
The bed made, the washed face
and back in the same place
Silly me!
I really thought there was something to be

Dim Sun (for Everyone)
02:05
|
|||
There's a dim sun for everyone
Try to hide this suicide
Dim sun everybody's got one
Cry, lie down, and die
There's your dim sun
