Tell Me Why 04:11
Tell me why the whole world's gone crazy They've lost their minds, grown slow and lazy Their empty eyes have nothing to say Cartoon lives spent wasting away People, they're just no good None of this feels like it should Tell me why everyone's a stranger Not afraid to die, it's now or later They're closing in, closing our eyes It's as bad as it's ever been, we're moving blind People, they're just no good None of this feels like it should Tell me why we should bother at all Why trouble ourselves when the weak and the small Bad men win, the good ones lose They're laughing at us, there's nothing to do People, they're just no good None of this feels like it should

Devil may run with a cold hand Raised up in surrender All we have is orphaned Still, we have known harsher winters Ain't no wall gonna rise up High enough to divide us Ain't no future waiting While sorrow walks beside us Here's a song for the sirens Explosions on all horizons We came through the fire A light and distant choir Fall back on the water All you have you offer We are sons we are daughters Lifted from the darkness Got no time for the scheming Heresy and schism I'm not the one bleeding Somehow we all must face our demons You came to me, you were wounded Color and shape of bruises All the world's polluted Seeing only what we're losing Brandish your heart like a weapon But I will not be threatened All the fools and felons All the souls in heaven Fall back on the water All you have you offer We are sons we are daughters Lifted from the darkness

Tell it to the morning I'll be moving on Tell it to the morning The new aching dawn For all the gold in this town Couldn't keep me around Tell it to the morning I gave my last song Tell it to the strangers Who populate your acquaintance Tell it to the danger Watch your step in the black If you live your life in the greyscale You never see the colors of dawn Tell it to your lover In The morning you'll be gone You bend, you break, your bones, your body aged We've seen better days, my how they get away Tell it to the night song That you sing for no one else Tell it to the unread books Still way up on the shelf Tell it to the evening, tell it to yourself Tell it to the whatever moments that we might have left

Gospel Truth 03:22
I killed the man you thought you knew Took down the photos of me and you I was born to fight not to fade away The sky is dark the hour late You're sentimental you're heart is weak You can barely stand on your own feet This is no world for fragility But even vultures have got to eat Don't carry a gun when a smile will do People are so eager just to bend to you That's not a knife it's my canine tooth Speak the word of God the gospel truth I will be changed I will be free If I have to murder every part of me Not every river makes it to the sea On this alone we can agree Some men got just one thing in their sights You can read the future in their eyes This place is cursed the well ran dry Everything you love one day will die

So you made a lot of money in the '80s Now it's steak and ketchup every day Someone get this man a diet cola He was on the cover of people and playboy He was born to be the bottom of the world (U-S-Asshole) His mother used to say he looked like Elvis He's more of a contemporary Nixon

I'm not sorry I burnt your house down I saw a vision in flames In the fire, I saw you standing Smoke obscuring your face Mother always spoke of angels Never knew their names Every house here is haunted Every heartbeat waits Don't weep Your dreams Can't hurt you Sleep Don't weep Your dreams Can't hurt you In the morning the sun is breaking Burning off the fog Don't wake sleeping children We are forever lost Standing on the edge of reason Coming in from the dark Consciousness is a river Flowing back to the start Don't weep Your dreams Can't hurt you Sleep Don't weep Your dreams Can't hurt you In a world war In a firefight In that look you had Before you died In the next life In our best dreams Nothing here is quite As it seems As a parting gift As a long goodbye You looked back To watch the sunrise As the colors broke And our bodies rose The sky opens up To the universe below All the answers Are in the questions What comes after Comes with the present All solutions Are no solutions For what you're after You will first have to lose it I'm not sorry I burnt your house down I saw a vision in flames
7.
Take my vow my word is solemn Take my busy day Take my time my worthless dollar Take the dead away All the burdensome bones we carry All the useless weight All the melancholy memories buried In the far-off straights All our passing days Time will take away In the moonlight, madness, mayhem In the murderers' row In the dark shadows surround us Still, see your ghost On the day the two were married On their bed a rose Why do we go about our lives so hurried Why can't we let go? All our passing days Time will take away Take my weary tale, my sorrow Take my world of woe Lay my cumbersome body lowly When my time is close All the world for a moment you save for All that's laid to waste All the hopes and prayers held sacred All that's sure to fade

Light on your feet, made for the air Unfurl your wings, get out of there Head in the clouds where it oughta be No looking back, there's nothing there to see We're moving forward, we don't even feel the weight Time marches onward, nothing stands in our way You were born a dreamer, you were born a believer You were born a seeker now turn on the receiver Let the music play, let the light in your soul Lift up to the heavens as the drums begin to roll We're moving forward, we don't even feel the weight Time marches onward, nothing stands in our way We're not made for this world, we're not made to keep We're not made for the wolves, we swim out into the deep If you never move you'll never see your chains If you never break free, nothing will ever change We're moving forward, we don't even feel the weight Time marches onward, nothing stands in our way We're not falling backward, we'll never return The future is out there waiting to turn We're moving forward, we don't even feel the weight Time marches onward, nothing stands in our way

Belly of the whale, the tale you tell Bonnie and Clyde in a Kansas jail Fare thee well, anywhere but here Bullet in a book and a busted lip A pin-up girl on a battleship What freshest hell does this entail? Our days are long and our nights are brief Our lives are hard and not ours to keep Footprints on the moon and a bag of chips Chipping away at the edifice Silver-linings and grey areas too Tommy worked outside and his hands were rough Carol had a thing for that kinda stuff Timid steps in supportive shoes Our days are long and our nights are brief Our lives are hard and not ours to keep The first to shout and the first to cry The first to pull a gun and the first to die Desert words in a garden state Pirouettes in a pink tank-top Lemonade, Ricola cough-drops The calendar slips from the wall Our days are long and our nights are brief Our lives are hard and not ours to keep
