Barely Breathing
04:50
|
|||
I'm alive but I'm barely breathing
Close my eyes for a week or two
Stay inside til this all blows over
I'm not violent but I scream sometimes
Bring the motha fuckin' bass in
Pay no mind
To the drilling in the ceiling
To the sentimental feeling
To science and the data, goodbyes and see you laters, the violence and the haters
(Pay no mind)
To the rules and regulations
The trials and tribulations
We thank you for your patience, the fabric of our nation depends on your participation
Pay no mind
To the days all moving faster
No mind
To the questions and the answers
No mind
To happily ever afters, devices are our masters, and we're just sittin pretty
Pay no mind
To the man behind the curtain
No mind
To the sufferin and the hurtin
No mind
Cuz' nothing is for certain, the memories you're skirtin are coming back to bite ya
I'm alive but I'm barely breathing
Close my eyes for a week or two
Then I get the feeling I should
Stay inside til this all blows over
I'm not violent but I scream sometimes
I'm alive but I'm barely breathing
Close my eyes for a week or two
Stay inside til this all blows over
I'm not violent but I scream sometimes
I'm alive but I'm barely breathing
Close my eyes for a week or two
Then I get the feeling I should
Stay inside til this all blows over
I'm not violent but I scream sometimes
I'm alive
I'm alive
Pay no mind
I'm alive but I'm barely breathing
Pay no mind
Close my eyes
Pay no mind
No mind mind no
No mind
No mind mind no
No mind

B4 U CAME AROUND
03:35
|

When I climb those hills from yesterday
Buying time how much more do I need to fake
No I don't mind it's the pill I gotta take
'Cuz I'll fall apart
That's before you came around
That's before you came around
That's before you came around
Savin' all my grace for the divine
Layin' all my ladies on the line
Packin' up a suitcase I can't find
It'll only take a second if you let me take a chance on you
Finding out where to step to cross the line
Another doubt to kill the will to fight
Say it loud 'til your lungs hang out to dry
'Cuz I fall apart
That's before you came around
That's before you came around
That's before you came around
Savin' all my grace for the divine
Layin' all my ladies on the line
Packin' up a suitcase I can't find
It'll only take a second if you let me take a chance on you
It'll only take a second if you let me take a chance on you
It'll only take a second if you let me take a chance on you
It'll only take a second if you let me take a chance on you
It'll only take a second if you let me take a chance

Get By (With Changes)
03:31
|
|||
(Don't change that dial)
By just like before
The flood came and we stayed
We almost drowned in a wake of crashing waves
The earth quakes and parades
Won't be long 'til we find our path to a secret place
We can get by like before
We can slip right past the door
It's only here that I can see
You and me and that's for sure
Nothing matters anymore
We can go against the norm
To find a different point of view
That you're aching to ignore
If I told you all I had
Lost it all but now nothing seems that bad
Here hold my hands through sinking sands
I'm here to swim for the both of us
We can slip right past the door
It's only here that I can see
You and me and that's for sure
Nothing matters anymore
We can go against the norm
To find a different point of view
That you're aching to ignore
(Don't change that dial)
They'll start to act like they're one of us
(It's true)
It's what they lack and that's a plus
(That's you)
When they come back we'll be dangerous
(Round two)
Let's go someplace that's anonymous
We can slip right past the door
Let's go someplace that's anonymous
We can slip
They'll start to act like they're one of us
(Just like before)
It's what they lack and that's a plus
(Just like before)
When they come back we'll be dangerous
(Round two)
Let's go someplace that's anonymous
We can go against the norm
(We can go against the norm)
If you love your life
Don't you waste it
Don't believe the hype
(We can go against the norm)
If you love your life
Don't you waste it
Don't believe the hype
(We can go against the norm)
We can get by like before
Right past the door
It's only here that I can see
You and me and that's for sure
Nothing matters anymore child
Get by like before
Get by like before
Get by like before
We can get by like before

Seeds

I've got these seeds
In my pocket
Keep me grounded in the truth
That my mother taught me
When I was young
I have these feet
Firmly planted
One in front of the other
So I'm never not
Ready to move on
Can't hide from myself
Right in front of me
Don't know if you can tell
What I'm supposed to be
Up down all around
Lookin' side to side
Where do we go from here
Contagion
Release
Where do we go from here
Oh wow big house
What a luxury
Hey kid keep your eye
On the discovery
Uptown walking down
By the riverside
Where do we go from here
I've got these seeds
In my pocket
Keep me grounded in the truth
That my mother taught me
When I was young
I have these feet
Firmly planted
One in front of the other
So I'm never not
Ready to move on
I have these seeds
In my pocket
Keep me grounded in the truth
That my mother taught me
When I was young
I have these feet
Firmly planted
One in front of the other
So I'm never not
Ready to move on
I'm from a planet
It's a hell of a time
(It's just like yours)
Come on over
Come on over
I'm from a planet
It's a hell of a time
(It's just like yours)
Come on over
Come on over
Come on over
You know it's nice to take
A little time away (nice)
Come on over oh
Come on over
Ooooooooo
Oooooooooahhhhhhh
Ooooooooo
Oooohhhhhhhhhhh
Can't hide from myself
Right in front of me
Don't know if you can tell
What I'm supposed to be
Up down all around
Lookin' side to side
Where do we go from here
Contagion
Contagion
Release
I have got these seeds
I have got these seeds
(What Cha got)
I have these seeds
In my pocket
Keep me grounded in the truth
That my mother taught me
When I was young
I have these feet
Firmly planted
One in front of the other
So I'm never not
Ready to move on

Insanitoi
05:13
|
|||
We're warn and faded
But it all can't end right here
We're dehydrated
When the water's crystal clear
(Cross the path of the jaded stones walking back to your place)
We try each day
Through insanity and pain
We fry our brains
Angry deity explain
You were on your call
I know you could think of something better
To be doing with your time
I see through it all
You're at the mall
You know they get all the greatest prices
Guaranteed to blow your mind
I see though it all
We try each day
Through insanity and pain
We fry our brains
Angry deity explain
We try each day
Through insanity and pain
We fry our brains
Angry deity explain
Every time we sing this part
We feel it out we make it up
We never write it down
Every time we sing this part
We make it up
Very gently move your hips
Move your body
Finding yourself in your body
Through every breath
Feel that energy vibrating
Feel that energy
Feel that energy vibrating
Every time we sing this part
We feel it out we make it up
We never write it down
Never write it down
Never write it down
We try each day
Through insanity and pain
We fry our brains
Angry deity explain
We try each day
Through insanity and pain
We fry our brains
Angry deity explain
We try each day
Through insanity and pain
We fry our brains
Angry deity explain
We try each day
Through insanity and pain
We fry our brains
Angry deity explain
We try
We fry
Our try
Our brains
