Ripples
04:54

One thing leads to another
There's a spanner in the works
Something somewhere made things worse
Are we floating or are we in freefall?
The waves hit the edge and bounce back
One thing leads to another
Skin grows calloused and nerve endings numb
Forget the old life and accept the new
As the dream of conclusion drifts
Further and further towards the horizon
It's going, it's going, and it's gone
Riding the waves of the ripples forevermore
One thing leads to another
They hit the wall and then they bounce back
We can stop it if we want it
But we've got to want it
We've got to want it
We've got to want it
I don't know
which way the river flows
And I don't know
which way the story goes
But I'm trying
to hit it on the nose
But I'm trying
to hit it on the nose
But I'm trying
to hit it on the nose
But I'm trying
I am trying
I am trying
I am trying

Living by the ocean
Drown yourself in lotions
How much can you feel it?
A successful campaign
Celebrate with champagne
Wow you really earned it
They all look as you roll up
Sexy in your make-up
How hot do you want it?
Always first up in the line
Always making the time
How much do you need it?
One day we will get out
Buy ourselves your own house
How much do we need it?
Work ourselves to death
Collapsing under our debt
How bad can you feel it?
Sitting on the pavement
Hoping for some payment
How much do we need it?
The building is on fire
No escape, we're high up
How hot do you want it?
If you just
Get your wallet out
Get your wallet out
You can do anything
If we need it
We need it
We need it
We need it
And we mean it
We mean it
We mean it
We mean it
If you just
Get your wallet out
Get your wallet out
You can do anything

Towering Above

Do you value
your own body
or your soul?
Disaffected
and infected
In a hole
It's okay now
I am used to it
Are you not?
It's a cycle
See it spinning
'til you rot
And they know my name
I am geared for fame
Fits like a glove
Towering above
On this ladder
Can't see the bottom
or the top
It's a cage now
There's no way for
me to stop
We are earning
We are learning
This is life
Keep your eyes closed
You'll be home soon
Say goodnight
Quit your job, get another job
Quit your job, get another job
Quit your job, get another job
Quit your job, get another job
Quit your job, get another job
Quit your job, get another job
Quit your job, get another job
Quit your job, get another job
Quit that job, get another job
Quit that job, get another job
Quit that job, get another job
Quit that job, get another job
Quit that job, get another job
Quit that job, get another job
Quit that job, get another job
Quit that job, get another job
And they know my name
I am geared for fame
Fits like a glove
Towering above

Protector
04:02

It's all put on
Beg your pardon
Come on dance for me
We're so tired
Of all the liars
Come on dance for me
You'll protect me when I sleep
You'll behead my enemies
All the blood upon my sheets
You are strong and I am weak
Not afraid to show your teeth
Protector you take all of me
Smells like summer
When there's someone
Here to dance with me
Crashing cymbals
A flash of signals
Someone's here to dance with me
You'll protect me when I sleep
You'll behead my enemies
All the blood upon my sheets
You are strong and I am weak
Not afraid to show your teeth
Protector you take all of me

I sold my heart
to Goldman Sachs
It'll cost me twice as much
to ever get it back
A dime for a dozen
my brain cooks in the oven
My hands fall to the floor
All I want is more
I want
just a little more
and all I want
is a little more
Things used to cost a penny
as good as almost any
And back in my day
it was all work and no play
So I sold my heart
it never did me good
I sold my heart
to Goldman Sachs
A little more
all I want
is a little more
I sold my heart
to Goldman Sachs
I sold my heart
to Goldman Sachs
I sold my heart
to Goldman Sachs
I sold my heart
to Goldman Sachs

Feed My Disease
06:30
|

Starting over again
I just have to laugh
I guess it's not too bad
Time keeps moving on
I'm tired of this chair
Tired of being here
Doing the same things
Saying the same things
Open up new doors
The new room's painted beige
The accepted way
It's another day
Value all my time
Embrace it when it's mine
The tap always runs dry
Feed my disease
From afar
Why should we
even start
Feeling strong
In our hearts?
Is it enough
to go on?
It's a chance
to belong
Soldier on
to the start
So what do we say?
It's time that we stop playing
This dumb fucking game
Blow it all away
Build a whole new town
Burn the old one down
I hope it's better now
Trying not to drown
And what if it goes bad?
Well, bad is where we're at
So I guess that
Except with one less plan
Do it on our terms
Everything we've learned
The planet will still spin
Feed my disease
From afar
Why should we
even start
Feeling strong
In our hearts?
Is it enough
to go on?
It's a chance
to belong
Soldier on
to the start

C'est la vie
Doesn't matter to me
Thinkin' about you
The only thing that I do
Say you love me
'Cause you matter to me
I think I do too
When I'm with you
When you are here
Feeling no fear anymore
I don't want you to go
I don't want you to go to your home
Feel your heartbeat
Listen on repeat
Shoes by the door
Clothes on the floor
Stay here all night
Angel Delight
I don't want you to go
I don't want you to go to your home
C'est la vie
Say you love me
C'est la vie
Say you love me
C'est la vie
Say you love me
C'est la vie
Say you love me
C'est la vie
Say you love me

Prime Time
03:27

Ate pretty healthy tonight
I'm tryin'a do things right
Can't spend my time laid on the floor
At least not anymore
Don't knock my self esteem
'cause it's feeling pretty elephantine
Even if I'm fatigued
This is prime time
This is prime time
This is my time
This is prime time
Settling into the night
Got nothing left to fight
Plastic buttons melt in my hands
I sit and I obey their demands
It never lasts too long
Eventually you get back on
Even if you're fatigued
This is prime time
This is prime time
This is my time
This is prime time

Finally Fall Asleep

Sometimes
You're real
Sure that you
Can't feel
Well you
Are like me
You will heal
Like me
Finally
Fall asleep
Again
