Lay of the Land
04:05
|
|||
Dark ritual and immolation
Won't offer you illumination
Faux fathers in the congregation
Won't show the way to true salvation
You wanna be a beacon of heavenly light
You can
Let love in you'll see an eternally bright lay of the land
If life is a hallucination
It ought to be a celebration
You wanna be a beacon of heavenly light
You can
Let love in you'll see an eternally bright lay of the land

Big Time Player
03:43
|
|||
Life is easy for all the millionaires and socialites
I'm sick and tired of being bored
I can't go anywhere in this town tonight
They said I could do anything when I was a younger man
Fresh out of school
You bet I would do anything to become a celebrity
I'm mister cool
Call me mister cool
I need glamorizing
I need merchandising
I'll do what you want me to
I wanna be a big time player x2
I wanna make you well aware
(you gotta) make me x4
A STAR!
I will go far
I have a recurring dream
I'm wearing Givenchy at the Grammy awards
Everyone is so pretty
Undeniable dandies loved and adored
I hear a voice call out my name
I've hit the big time
I'm a nominee
But just before I win I wake
Up in my tiny apartment in SGV
I need advertising
I need televising
I'll do what you want me to
I wanna be a big time player x2
I wanna make you well aware
I wanna be a big time player x3
I wanna make you well aware
(you gotta) make me x4
A star

Half the Time

(Can't win for losing time x2)
My girl is in a sour mood today
She says I'm behind on every kind of bill that I have to pay
So I turn up the guitar playing on my car radio
And I revel in the sound drowning out my old lady-o
If you don't believe in anything you'll never be wrong
Not at all
Believe in everything you'll only be right half the time
Believe in anything you'll never be wrong
Not at all
Believe in everything you'll only be right half the time
The DOW is down a thousand points again
A V kookoo virus deep down inside us wants us to have no friends
So I turn off my phone
Get into my zone and meditate
And I jettison the fear
Wipe away my tears and levitate
If you don't believe in anything you'll never be wrong
Not at all
Believe in everything you'll only be right half the time
Believe in anything you'll never be wrong
Not at all
Believe in everything you'll only be right half the time
A Muslim told a Buddhist just how to do this prayer thing the right way
An old practicing Jew just told a Hindu sabbaths on Saturday
if you follow a religion that's your decision hombre
Don't force it on another
Be a good brother OK?
If you don't believe in anything you'll never be wrong
Not at all
Believe in everything you'll only be right half the time
Believe in anything you'll never be wrong
Not at all
Believe in everything you'll only be right half the time
Half the time

Halloween Night
03:26
|
|||
You terrify me like a banshee
You got a menacing look in your eye
You're sugary sweet
You trick and I treat
You're the medicine that's keeping me high
Halloween night
Rendezvous
It's so amazing what candy can do
Go ahead and bite off more than you can chew
It's so amazing what candy can do
I terrify you when I say boo
Your adrenaline is kicking in now
Will you be my new spooky tattoo
that I regret to find but cherish anyhow
Halloween night
Rendezvous
It's so amazing what candy can do
Go ahead and bite off more than you can chew
It's so amazing what candy can do
Ooh yeah!
I love you candy!
I love you candy!

Race War
03:00
|

I want no more x3
of your race war
I want no more x3
of your race war
Any given day we're made this way
Family before got more sun rays
Take a look around unbound by hate
Decimate the noise
White noise in your brain
I want no more x3
of your race war
I want no more x3
of your race war
Wish I was a bird undeterred on a breeze
Meet me in the clouds undoubtedly
(free we will be)
Higher than a kite
Tonight we'll see
(just how much we)
People of the Earth are worth
Give mirth to me
I want no more
of your race war...

Spirit Animal
04:19
|
|||
Jungle hive
So contrived
All you hear is make money
Makes you want to run out of your front door
Jump inside your car and drive
Keep on moving until your out of the city
Easier to breathe
Better than before
Out of bounds
Freedom found
We've got nowhere to be
Shadows at our feet
Raven overhead
Spirit animal
Color of the night
Spirit animal
A most legendary sight to behold
Spirit animal
Do you come in peace?
Spirit animal
I need release

Humor Me
04:09
|
|||
I waited two years from the day your blue tears
Flowed like a river and we drifted apart
I pray that you review me my pagan beauty
Give me another chance to win your heart
Your hair is in curls upon your weary shoulder
Humor me girl
While the fire for you still smolders
Humor me girl
No don't push me away
Humor me girl
I'll make you laugh for the rest of your days
Not long ago we were kindred souls engaged to be married
For better or worse
But I chose to sow the seeds of a love laid low by
Boarding a fairy to the land of the cursed
Now I'm waring the world upon my weary shoulders
Humor me girl
Before we get much older
Humor me girl
No don't push me away
Humor me girl
I'll make you laugh for the rest of your days

Nowhere Left to Hide
05:11
|
|||
You and I are fading in the afterglow
Never to return
A guardian angel told me of the danger here
Still we will sojourn
Still we will soldier
Nowhere left to hide
Nowhere left to hide
Row on back to shore when all the nets are full
And the sun has shown
Can you hear the ocean moaning as we disappear
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
Nowhere left to hide
Nowhere left to hide
Ohhh
Only one place remains to be seen again
Ooh Ohh
Only one
Only one place remains to be seen again

Things Fall Apart
03:49
|
|||
Another time
Another age is spinning around the halls of eternity
Another rhyme
Another page
We're jotting it down
Turning the century
At night when you're dreaming
You feel it
The dragon of our day is having his way
In the moment you can beat it
Just delete it
Cause mother nature knows what the demons don't
Thing fall apart
The center cannot hold
Things fall apart
The center cannot hold
Unless the light chases the dark
Far far away
Tired of being told what to do like you're a slave
Forced to comply with the wishes of history
You'll never be bold
You'll never be brave
Drinking the wine of a terrible mystery
At night when you're dreaming
You feel it
The dragon of our day is having his way
In the moment you can beat it
Just delete it
In an ever changing world
You know that it's true
Thing fall apart
The center cannot hold
Things fall apart
The center cannot hold
Unless the light chases the dark
Far far away
Away
Away
Chase it all away

The Lie/The Truth
02:22
|
|||
And just when I thought I was beginning to believe it
The illusion of your love led me to defeat it
When the veil fell away
I woke up from a nightmare
Shivering cold
Sad to behold
Murmuring madly
Friends are fighting
Lovers lying
Some of us are dying for the truth
Some of us are dying for the truth
