Overture
[Instrumental]
Smooth Modulator
One day we'll crash this van
wind up in your attic
and with what we learned last night
we can never take ourselves away
No self control
we are blown to the wind and we'll float
From state to wretched state
crematories for past relationships,
we separate ourselves
can we push this any further, (Stand back)
and watch your family fall apart, (Much more)
Much more, then playing off of words but losing a piece of myself
I'm sure were all the same and we've found a way to
associate ourselves for love of money and were glorified,
we separate ourselves
can we push this any further, (stand back)
and watch your family fall apart, (Much more)
Much more, then playing off of words but losing a piece of myself
Our lovers drink alone tonight
Stand Up
This town of sober actors
Feel free to watch your city
become more than a sitcom dependency
As they walk, her streets are bleeding
from the talent that they're bringing
The stars will pave your journey
To another, to another x-rated love story
The hills have become your idols
The hills have become your idols
Stand up
We're falling back again
We'll find something better, we'll do anything
(This town has killed us both)
Stand up
We're falling back again
We'll find something better, we'll do anything
(This town has killed us both)
Stand up cause this town is failing us
This town of shifting power
Covered under Neilson ratings
Let's decide how to feed your children
Rise and fall to the sound they're scripting
Sit and smile at the pain you're buying
Will it hurt when we live in paradise?
We're washing up on sunset
Sit and smile at the pain you're buying
Sit and smile at the pain you'll buy
Stand up
We're falling back again
We'll find something better, we'll do anything
(This town has killed us both)
Stand up
We're falling back again
We'll find something better, we'll do anything
(This town has killed us both)
Stand up cause this town is failing us
This might be your chance
And when you find them running with
Your gun in hand
Stand up
We're falling back again
We'll find something better, we'll do anything
(This town has killed us both)
Stand up
We're falling back again
We'll find something better, we'll do anything
(This town has killed us both)
Stand up
Radio Flyer's Last Journey
It's cold, it's raining
And everybody's hating me
The snowflakes on gallows,
that creates the fall sincerity
(If I break you now I'll break the fall
We had the world and lost it all
You lay me down
You lay me down)
Lay me down on thorns and nails
Splintering the bones
You lay me down on thorns and nails
Of the last to pass in his bed
(Why's it feel so right to cry
Help me, I died last night
Help me, I died last night
End this now)
Lay me down
On poison nails
Lay me down
In this bed
It's warm, he's floating (floating)
And the angels wings now carry him
The radio flyer sends him
But the mother now buries him
Lay me down on thorns and nails
Splintering the bones
You lay me down on thorns and nails
Of the last to pass in his bed
This spectacle of values results in her son crying
I'll open this bottle of wine [x4]
I'll open this bottle of wine [x4]
Cash Cowbell
the cash cow is feeding us
someone we dont know is buying us
and we are temporary
do you, want to feel
like the knife is in you?
(like the knife is in you)
cant complain, cant complain, cant complain
we have nothing left to lose
before we sleep together
(before we sleep together)
maybe, a bullet or saint
and i guess were sent for motion
with conductivity whole
do you, want to feel
like the knife is in you?
(like the knife is in you)
do you, want to feel
a sleep soundly propostion?
(a sleep soundly propostion)
cant complain, cant complain, cant complain
im debonair, im debonair, so debonair
cant complain, cant complain, cant complain
im debonair, im debonair, so debonair
we are temporary
(we're temporary)
temporary
do you, want to feel
(do you want to)
like the knife is in you?
(like the knife is in you)
do you, want to feel
(do you, want to)
a sleep soundly propostion?
(a sleep soundly propostion)
Half Man, Half Shark; Equals O
we'll light up the segway
we'll load them up and ship them out
out! out!
tonight this poet dies
it isnt closed spoken
its his last word
his thoughts were left in fiction
and his hope for substance
had faded long ago
you and i both need to know
when we fall, you die, we die
stand there, to get us get us now
if we fall, you die, we die
there out to get us now
tonight the candle was left burning
and a shred of dignity is lost within the flame
and his fears were left unmentioned
his cry for silence had faded long ago
you and i both need to know
when we fall, you die, we die
stand there, to get us get us now
if we fall, you die, we die
there out to get us now
tonight this poet dies
tonight this poet dies
tonight, tonight, tonight
you and i both need to know
if we fall, you die, we die
stand there out, to get us get us now
if we fall you die, we die
we'll light up the segway
we'll load them up and ship them out
out! out!
Shotgun!
<We've done our time (we've done what you said)
Twitch through the night (I wish I was you violation)
So hold on tight
I watch her spin out of control (she spins)
I watch her spin out of control (she spins)
I watch her spin out of control (she spins)
I watch her spin!
And we are the ones who held you tightly
(the trigger is cold as blood
and your pain is now my depression)
And this feels like heaven
The sin has become a massive piece of mind,
I guess I ran it over a thousand times in my head,
I can say I never felt this way
because your violation was only skin deep
I've ended your pain and written my own ending
I'm guilty but flawless
If this is justice, I'm your jury
The chamber is loaded
And now I have the shotgun riding shotgun
Your open door (this pain will pull me through this)
That leaves you helpless (this sorry plea that leaves you helpless)
But life wont wait
Why can't I just gain control (she spins)
Why can't I just gain control (and she spins)
Why can't I just gain control (she spins)
While I watch her spin!
And we are the ones who held you tightly
(the trigger is cold as blood
and your pain is now my depression)
This feels like heaven! Heaven!
A feeling of grief
But life wont wait
She spins She spins She spins!
And we are the ones who held you tightly
(the trigger is cold as blood
and your pain is now my depression)
And this feels like heaven
And we are the ones who held you tightly
(the trigger is cold as blood
and your pain is now my depression)
And this feels like heaven
and this feels like heaven
and this feels like heaven
And this feels....>
Calmer Than You Are
tickle me pink with laughter
backwards we wind up spinning
another shot of whiskey (another shot of whiskey)
to train our feet to move
we can't feel loved
we can't feel free
we can't feel at all
[x3]
(we're taking some time) we can't wait for..
(we're packing our bags) our bags, too full
unloved, we'll lose ourselves
(we're taking some time) we can't wait for..
(we're packing our bags) our bags, too full
unloved, we'll lose ourselves (once more we'll lose ourselves)
we think and drink our cocktails
sit and watch the burning bridges
throw me another one (roll me another one)
to train our minds to move
we can't feel loved
we can't feel free
we can't feel at all
[x3]
(we're taking some time) we can't wait for..
(we're packing our bags) our bags, too full
unloved, we'll lose ourselves
(we're taking some time) we can't wait for..
(we're packing our bags) our bags, too full
unloved, we'll lose ourselves
we're taking some time
why can't you set the trucks to sunset and we forget
ride the sun to make us whole
(we're taking some time) we can't wait for..
(we're packing our bags) our bags, too full
we'll lose ourselves
(we're taking some time) we can't wait for..
(we're packing our bags) our bags, too full
we'll lose ourselves
Faso Latido
Rain down the pavement
To line up in our metal coffins
Main line our stations
to ship out the mass destructions
Green eyes in fountains
from the toxins that pollute our insides
We're drowning (we're drowning)
We're watching sunlight burn
as it's slipping through the starlit canopy
(we're watching the world light up lifeless)
the daylight insults the beauty of her majesty
(the night is taking control) [x3]
"And this is life twenty years later after the dust and smoke have cleared, after you lost your wife and children, when the earth has a chance for revenge. The chance to recreate a species of solid existence. Perfection at its best. The only chance for pure anarchy"
Stained glass windows
The gluten that feeds to pass time
Impair this vision
That recreates perfection
slow down transition
From the moon that's taking over
We're choking (we're choking)
We're watching sunlight burn
as it's slipping through the starlit canopy
(we're watching the world light up lifeless)
the daylight insults the beauty of her majesty
(the night is taking control) [x3]
And the moon is taking over
moon is taking over
the moon is taking over (the night is taking control, the night is taking control)
the moon is... (the night is taking control, the night...)
We're watching sunlight burn
as it's slipping through the starlit canopy
(we're watching the world light up lifeless)
the daylight insults the beauty of her majesty
(the night is taking control)
hold your breath and don't let go [x4]
Godbless You (God Damnit)
is this the end of all discretion
has turning in left us tuning out
and so this special song
goes to my first all
the ocean avenue, yeah
and this winter will set aside our feelings
cool it down, we'll set the standards
for the emotionless we'll raise the stakes
cool it down, we're cooling down
is this the end of our obsession
saying you love them just a little to much
and so i guess thats how we got in this game
i can play this game, yeah
and this winter will set aside our feelings
cool it down, we'll set the standards
for the emotionless we'll raise the stakes
cool it down, we're cooling down
mutilation (mutilation)
mutilation (mutilation)
mutilation (mutilation)
mutilation (mutilation)
and this winter will set aside our feelings
cool it down, we'll set the standards
for the emotionless we'll raise the stakes
cool it down, we're cooling down
to help the storm in us
we have no spine or scent
we treat to the openless
were all spent
so deep in setting up
with our hands held so high
the snow begins to bleed
and whos to blame?

Our Little keepsake patterns the ones that leave us shaking.
Take rest in sound pollution. Take rest in the vibration.
A moment with our bodies exposed and decomposing.
I'll stay awake to fight this fear were lost and losing
Hang onto whatever you believe in
This might mean the world to you
But as for me I've given up on our religion
A safe way - of letting go of nothing
And they'll ask - why must I do this to myself.
What can you say - when you've asked yourself 1000 times before.
At daylight I'll break commitments of the night before.
I'll stay awake to fight this fear were lost and losing
Hang onto whatever you believe in
This might mean the world to you
But as for me I've given up on our religion
Nightfall and my liver floats into the stars
Baby, don't ask how it'll be when I'm 40
This song is a contradiction, I'm doing just fine.
Someone save us from ourselves.
Something to cut the ties.
A promise we made to...
Ashtrays and empty bottles [x2]
I'll stay awake to fight this fear were lost and losing
Hang onto whatever you believe in
This might mean the world to you
But as for me I've given up on our religion
Modern Day Fire
dont you cry, your about to lose your grip
take your eye, take the stone off the pedal
theres no time to be facetious
we meant every word we said
last night i woke up cold of sweat
the bitter taste in my mouth
that has labeled me a weakness
tonight we'll entertain our guests
with a glass of water
yet a taste i wont miss
and you better get better
(you better get better)
so you can save our day
(we are are better)
and you better get better
so you can save our day
dont you cry, your about to lose your grip
take your eye, take the stone off the pedal
if time invites a light ahead
and its followed by your body
that is stapeled to the mattress
tempt me with this broken purity
and you better get better
(you better get better)
so you can save our day
(we are are better)
and you better get better
we wont be the same
and you better get better
(you better get better)
so you can save our day
(we are are better)
and you better get better
so you can save our day
thats been sitting in my pocket
i havent lost my interest

It's time we took this holiday,
we thank you and send you our regards.
The beach is great this time of year, 4th of June.
We've seen our first sight of snow.
And it was beautiful.
And you might feel that this is better way of saying
we trusted you.
Praise F**k Destroy [x4]
And maybe we're saying you lost your tongue behind your plate of lie.
We know you're starving for the chance to make this right.
But the honest have let you go for breath of contract.
And you might feel that this is better way of saying
we trusted you.
Praise F**k Destroy
