Faithful
Plaque on the wall says that no one's slept here
It's rare to come upon a bridge that has not been around
Or been stepped on
Whatever the notion we
Let's not praise the man upstairs is used to all of this noise
I'm through with screaming

And echoes, that nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes
Like echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes, like this
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it
We're faithful, oh we all believe, we all believe it
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it

Yea, Ooh, Huh, Huh,…
Ooh, Ooh,..

And echoes, that nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes
Like echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it
So faithful, oh we all believe, we all believe it

M.Y.T.H.
Belief in a game controls that keeps us in a box of fear
We never listen
Voice inside so drowned out
Drowned you are, you are, you are a furry thing
And everything is you
Me you, you me, it's all related
What's a boy to do?
Just be darling and I will be too
Faithful to you

No Way
There's a token of my openness
Of my need to not disappear
How I'm feeling, so revealing to me
I found my mind too clear
I just need someone to be there for,... Ah, me
I just want someone to be there for,... me

All the static in my attic-a
Shoots down my side nerve
To the ocean of my platitudes
Longitudes, latitudes, it's so absurd
I just need someone to be there for,... ???
I just want someone to be there for
Someone to be there for me

'Cause I'll stop trying to make a difference
I'm not trying to make a difference
I'll stop trying to make a difference
No way
'Cause I'll stop trying to make a difference
I'm not trying to make a difference
I'll stop trying to make a difference
No way

Ooh, let's call it an angel
Ooh, let's call it an angel
Ooh, let's call it an angel

Given To Fly
He could have tuned in, tuned in, but he tuned out
A bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
He got up outta there ran for hundreds of miles,...
He made it to the ocean
Had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knee

A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
Delivered him wings "hey look @ me now"
Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oohhh,…
He's Flying! Whole, High! Wide! Whoa...

He floated back down cause he wanted to share
His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he was stripped, then he was stabbed
By faceless men, well fuckers... he still stands.

And he still gives his love, he just gives it away...
The love he receives is the love that is saved
And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly
He's Flying! Whoa,… High! Flying, Whoa,…
He's Flying! Whoa,.. High,..Whoa, Oooh,..

Wish List
I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence
I wish I was the grounds for fifteen million hands up raised and opened toward the sky

I wish I was a sioullette someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger, and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood

I wish I was an alien, at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal break that you depended on
I wish I was the verb to trust, and never let you down

I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I guess it never stops

Pilate
Talk of circles, punching out
Looking in, drawing circles down
Falling off the south marking ground
Talking out of turn, drawing circles down

Like Pilate, I have a dog
Like Pilate, I have a dog

Walks me out of town, still one's a crowd
Making angels in the dirt, looking up, looking all around

Like Pilate, I have a dog
Obeys, listens, kisses, loves,…
Like Pilate, I have a dog
Obeys, listens, kisses, loves,…

Stunned by my own reflection
It's looking back, sees me too clearly
And I swore I'd never go there again
Not unlike a friend that
Politely drags you down, you down, you down, you down

Like Pilate, I have a dog
Obeys, listens, kisses, loves,…
Like Pilate, I have a dog
Obeys, listens, kisses, loves,…
Like Pilate, I have a dog
Obeys, listens, kisses, loves,…
Like Pilate, I have a dog

Do The Evolution
I'm ahead, I'm a man
I'm the first mammal to wear pants, yeah
I'm at peace, with my lust
I can kill 'cause in God I trust, yeah
It's evolution, baby

I'm at peace, I'm the man
I was stocks on the day of the crash, yeah
On the loose, I'm a truck
All the rolling hills I'll flatten them out, yeah
It's herd behavior, uh huh
It's evolution, baby, yeah,..

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my song, here's my clone
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This land is mine, this land is free
I'll do what I want but irresponsibly
It's evolution, baby

I'm a thief, I'm a liar
There's my church, I sing in the choir
(Hallelujah, hallelujah)

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my song, admire my clones
Cuz ???
Appetite for nightly feast
Those ignorant Indians got nothin' on me
Nothin', why?
Because, it's evolution, baby!

Yeah! Whoo

I am ahead, I am advanced
I am the first mammal to make plans, yeah
I crawled the earth, but now I'm higher
Twenty-Ten watch it go to fire
It's evolution, baby, Whoa,..
It's evolution, baby, Whoa,…
Do the evolution
Come on, come on, come on, wha, oh,..

War, I'm Crazy,.. War I'm crazy, and war (6X)

MFC (Mini Fast Cars)
Sliding out of reverse into drive, this
Wheel will be turning right, then straight
Off in the sunset she'll ride
She can remember a time denied, stood by
The side of the road, spilled like wine, now
She's out on her own and line high

There's no leaving here
Ask, I'm an ear
She's disappeared, yeah,…

They said that timing was everything
Made him want to be everywhere
There's a lot to be said for nowhere

There's no leaving here
Ask, I'm an ear
He's disappeared
There's no leaving here
Ask, I'm an ear
Fuck it, we've disappeared, yeah,…

Lowlight
Clouds roll by
Reeling is what they say
Or is it just my way
Wind blows by, lowlight
Sidetracked, lowlight
Can't see my tracks, your scent - way back

Can I be here all alone?
Clear a path to my home
Blood runs dry
Books and jealousy tell me wrong
All I feel calm
Wind rolls by, lowlight
Car crash, lowlight
Can't wear my mask, your first, my last

Voice tells why
Two birds is what they'll see
Getting lost upon their way
Clouds rolls by, lowlight
Eyesight, lowlight
I don't need the light
I'll find my way from wrong, what's real
Our dream I see

In Hiding
I shut and locked the front door
No way in or out
I turned and walked the hallway
And pulled the curtains down
I knelt and emptied the mouth of every club around
But nothing's sound, nothing's sound

I'd stayed but my last breath left me
Ignored all my rounds
Soon I was seeing visions and cracks along the walls
They were upside down

I've swallow my words to keep from lying
I've swallow my face just to keep from biting, I, I..
I've swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, diving
I've surfaced and all of my pain was enlightened

I'm, I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding

It's been about three days now
Since I've been aground
No longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now
It's funny when things change so much
It's all a state of mind

I've swallowed my words to keep from lying
I've swallowed my face just to keep from biting, I, I..
I've swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, diving
I've surfaced and all around me was enlightened

Now I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding, yeah
Now I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding, yeah
I'm in hiding...

Push Me, Pull Me
I had a false belief
I thought I came here to stay
We're all just visiting
All just breaking like waves
The oceans made me, but who came up with love?
Push me, pull me, push me, or pull me out

Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)

So if there were no angels, would there be no sin, nah
You better stop me before I begin
But let me say: if I behave, can you arrange a spacious hole in the ground
Somewhere nice, make it nice
Where the land meets high tide

Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)

Like a cloud dropping rain
I'm discarding all thought
I'm like an opening band for the sun

Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)
Push me, pull me (push me, put me out)

I've had enough, said enough, felt enough, I'm fine

All Those Yesterdays
Don't you think you oughta rest?
Don't you think you oughta lay you head down?
Don't you think you want to sleep?
Don't you think you oughta lay your head down tonight?

Don't you think you've done enough?
Oh, don't you think you've got enough, well maybe..
You don't think there's time to stop?
There's time enough for you to lay your head down, tonight, tonight

Let it wash away
All those yesterdays

What are you running from?
Taking pills to get along
Creating walls to call your own
So no one catches you drifting off and
Doing all the things that we all do

Let them wash away
All those yesterdays
All those yesterdays
All those yesterdays

You've got time, you've got time to escape
There's still time, it's no crime to escape
It's no crime to escape, it's no crime to escape
There's still time, so escape
It's no crime, crime..

All those yesterdays {9X}
