while morale is down, i'm up at 4 am discerning miracles from sins but from your inner space to the highest plane the dance won't stop if the songs the same you think you're really gonna change the world? so what you crying for?
2.
hey world, take a look at me a student of magazines, the internet and tv won't read a book, or watch movies you've got a beatles shirt, you really give a shit the working class needs a saint, do you know what he meant? he said love would save us in the end well i think that that's now, maybe it's just a hope but while we're walking around, it's all just fear or it's dope but somehow love will overcome no ones rocking the boat, no ones raising the flag while the parents stay home, the kids they want it so bad please let something just happen like the end of the world, or the end of our pain while the centuries turn, the stories always the same humans went and made it lame but i still believe we could change the world just refuse to step in line you never think about the ones you subjugate you know that meat is murder and i guess that dairy is rape but that's our culture, so it's okay and the ones who suffer for dress don't have clothes on their back hope you like your new pair of shoes cos they were made in iraq you're working minimum wage so you don't feel bad but i'm still convinced we could save the world see benevolence in the angry boys and girls who won't rest until everyone has what they need transmute fear to love and equality from greed that's the way that it goes
3.
can't write a song without looking into the mirror it's enough to make me sick, no key, no plan, you've just got yourself to kick bad neighbors keep making noise, just a violent tone of voice, but we're no strangers to that kind of fight i struggle everyday just to get back to the place where i came from, not of this world, but unlike a christian i don't believe in hell, or sin, or jesus, i just believe in me and i came here to set me free i'm not alone, we're all over the planet, heavenly orphans, stuffed into sacks of bones and blood and organs but when the good times come, you'll feel so young again when it cools down, you'll miss the sun again you've got a lot to learn, you've got a soul to earn - the last one and when i die, they can't make me get back on that ride my twisting mind keeps shutting down my instincts, my guts always churning can't see it but i'm sure our future's burning been scraping vocals cords across the galaxy, no messages returned no revelations learned but when we cross that line, we'll remember everything missions, contracts signed like you were meant to finish this so calm the fuck down now, be gracious in your bow - the last one and when i die, they can't make me get back on that ride
4.
days, seconds, hours, it doesn't matter when you're drinking a beer, watching mainly commercials take all your problems, stack 'em up how high they go, you'll never know here, where no one knows what the fuck to do after all this time, rushing around the mindless hordes so what's the answer? i'll tell you later simple, true, right, misconstrued got torn apart, forgotten virtue still all there, just gotta want it made so easy to turn it off, your mind is this don't, don't settle down if it's a war, we don't have to be losing push, push it all till there's nothing left, till we know what's later
5.
i thought you would've won by now i thought you would've thrown around your weight you said you had it figured out but still you're always running late and when a touch of something real comes, you'll have a reaction and eventually devolve into a fatal attraction it's a big-small town so everybody has got their faction but the kids keep asking when is something new gonna happen? got a ghost in the front yard, it hangs around my family tree and it fills the empty space where a stump shows where it used to be but my depression's just a symptom of my misplaced affection and the years i spent wandering without any direction since my accidents i haven't lapsed in paying attention finally realized that you'll get by simply riding the tension
6.
when i crossed the hill, the town rose up before me i thought of you, your blood smeared on the wall i swear i heard your voice inside my head, it echoed "kid, you've gotta quit before you lose it all" but i've been falling down like clockwork, see the stations 2000 years ain't taught us nothing new so when the saddest phrase remains "i still remember" i'll dream a telephone that could somehow talk to you but when i finally wake up, i won't remember just feel a little emptier inside that day and when the night starts coming down, i'll fucking panic and wish my demons get the hint they've overstayed

Marines 02:57
so you've been on the road for three years or so you feel so far away, but they say you're close, i know and i keep having dreams, but i don't know what they mean maybe just you're way of saying, "hey, i still exist, unseen" in the liminal space, or a new baby with eyes so wide but they won't hide all the scars deep underneath you taught me regret and ways to forget you never seemed much like a solider, but a brilliant poet we'd climb on the roof with blunts and 40s too but now you're just a ghost inside my head, don't even got the proof that you still exist, or you weren't killed your parents fight the government, but the battles been uphill marines killed my friend, at camp pendleton the code of honors long-forgotten, the one of silence never ends
8.
i built a gravity bridge over patterns of light i didn't know what to think by the end of the night i built a rocket and flew a light year away and when i came back to earth, all the people were gray threw my hands into the air, the point of everything was there collect your quarters if you care, make the world ugly if you dare i dug a time travel hole to the end of the year it gave me perspective as to why i am here i'm here strictly cause of love, all the rest can go die so go on, leave us alone, and let us survive all the rest can go die
9.
Emo AF 02:27
i'm leaning on an old, fallen down fence between past and future but somehow not present tense well, i'm glad that you're gone and i wish you the best but when i see you around, rips my heart out my chest and all my old songs sound like a stranger singing and he's scraping his voice till it's broken and thin when ya' left, i was lost, the cops showed up that night and i tried to forget, now i'm trying to get right but it's not fair i see you at all of our shows but in this modern world, think everybody knows that life isn't fair and the planet's not nice our tragedy moves as a godly device and miracles are always too good to be real and we come in and out through the spokes of a wheel and when i crashed my car, you saw and crashed yours too, what a laugh and your dad's funeral seemed so choreographed and you hated my mom like i hated your past some things we can't change, some things aren't built to last
10.
well i packed up my car, and i said my goodbyes to you and your friends and our three little lions and i put on the tape i turned into the theme of the end of our time, then the stoplight turned green some dumb math will tell how long to heal the wounds, but when i see you around, it's always too soon these sad movies help, and so do the songs, when i'm acting 'em out or singing along like, i loved you more, than i ever loved anyone before, but not anyone to come still, someone said your name, i thought of you alone, i was just the same, twenty blocks away everyone looks like someone you know in the lonely dive bars with the lights red and low and when i was a kid, i dreamt i could fly, but now i dream of red stars falling down from the sky i pushed while you pulled, till we tore out the seams, and we called it life, but didn't know what that means and now that it's dead, it's so clear to me, we were just insane, wasn't any other way
11.
Speak Now 01:49
well it happened just like pen pals, i got lost in all your letters and i'd never wanna cage you, we could shine from the same vantage and i know you've been mistreated, i've had my heart all but shattered but i've pieced it back together, know you deserve so much please always love yourself, it's your birthday, you could put your makeup back up on the shelf you're changing the world please always love yourself, it's your birthday, you could tell your painful past to go to hell and i wish we'd met before you had a ring slipped on your finger, but the orchestra plays when it will, so i'll still fight for you favor and i hope you see us playing, and i hope you pay attention, and i'm sorry if things get weird, but it seemed worthy to mention please always love yourself, it's your birthday, you could put your makeup back up on the shelf you're saving the world please always love yourself, it's your birthday, you could be happy with somebody else
12.
Royal Plain 03:35
royal plain, just feign you're sane 7 days, still feel the same i'm pretty sure i wasn't made for this world buy the ticket, take the ride, wait for the train for your whole life and when it comes, you'll be outside smoking don't wanna talk about the past, knew as a kid, the good won't last but just like my dad, i still took the fool's gold some karmic debt, long overdue sometimes the hardest thing to do is your only option you think you're really gonna change the world? so what you crying for? it's so crowded inside your head, sounds like a civil war ration like soldiers during war, a little bit will get you far there's signs everywhere, and i keep on crying it's hot again, who really cares? with revolution in the air, i couldn't be more grateful you think you're really gonna set 'em free? that's what they're buying for we're so tired of this slavery something worth dying for
