Thrust of Truth
04:19
|

When the tidal wave of doubt and anger starts to drag you down
That's where the lies are found
And the TV and the radio are drowning out the sound
Of revolution swelling underground
The narrative they want us to believe
Their brands and logos designed to deceive
We know the truth is there for us to see
It's there for us to see
It's there for us
It's overrated to feel like you belong
We're suffocating; wake up, wake up
A cabal of corporations is colluding for control
So don't you sell your soul
Instant pleasure, pure and potent, is the prophet they extol
And affluence their only goal
The narrative they want us to believe
Their brands and logos designed to deceive
We know the truth is there for us to see
It's there for us to see
It's there for us
It's overrated to feel like you belong
We're suffocating; wake up, wake up
It's overrated, and we finally figured out
It's syndicated; wake up, wake up

It's Sylvestr

When you think about it... does it seem real?
Or does it feel slowed down?
When you touch it do you feel the things I feel?
Can you feel somehow?
Been looking for signs and they keep pointing back to you
Now I'm so lit up that I know what I need to do
I'm in love with you
And all the cosmic, far-out things you do
I'm as honest as the sky is high and blue
I'm in love, I'm in love with you
What's the number? What's the last time that you checked?
Has it gone down?
Need to learn the word for "New Years Eve" in Czech
And of course the countdown
Been looking for signs and they keep pointing back to you
Now I'm so lit up that I know what I need to do
I'm in love with you
And all the cosmic, far-out things you do
I'm as honest as the sky is high and blue
I'm in love, I'm in love with you

Spinning
03:22

Where is your god in the machine
To save us all from our demise?
Or is he simply there to watch us burn?
Alcohol and nicotine
It's Mother Nature in disguise
We bide our time, survive, and wait our turn
Spinning
We are spinning
Every day
Where is your brain inside your head
To guide you on your noble path?
Or has it packed its things and gone away?
Common sense is not widespread
It isn't hard to do the math
And walk the path that wiser men purvey
Spinning
We are spinning
Every day
Round and round and round and round and round
Careening through the emptiness of space
Round and round and round and round and round
At breakneck speed yet we stay fixed in place

Steel Turns to Rust
04:31
|
|||
We are stuck in the rock and so we fossilze
You want yours, they want theirs, and so we compromise
We do not have a plan and so we improvise
Stayed up late, couldn't sleep, I have these tired eyes
Here we go again
Every now and then
Here we go again
Every now and then
So we dance, and we sing, and we f*** everything
Even steel turns to rust, we let it oxidize
Out of sorts, misaligned, we have to organize
Like a cell, we divide, and then we colonize
Stayed up late, couldn't sleep, I have these tired eyes
Here we go again
Every now and then
Here we go again
Every now and then
So we dance, and we sing, and we f*** everything up

Somebody Else
03:27

Sometimes it feels like you're not there at all
Sometimes it's like you're dead
Sometimes I cannot see the stars at night
They're trapped inside my eyes
Sometimes I lose myself
Sometimes I think I've lost myself
Sometimes I'm someone else
Sometimes I feel like I'm somebody else
Somebody else
Sometimes the dawn is darker than the night
Sometimes the times they change
Sometimes my words they don't come out quite right
And I don't think that's strange
Sometimes I lose myself
Sometimes I think she's lost himself
Sometimes I'm someone else
Sometimes I feel like I'm somebody else
Somebody else

Try for a While
03:41
|

They offered me a train, they offered me a limousine
I said "I'll use my feet" if you know what I mean
I'd rather move myself than have somebody else move me
But I'd rather disappear into the sea
They told me I could have anything I want
Play Major League ball or own a restaurant
But the only thing I want is to want nothing at all
Love's the only name I ever call
She's the only girl for me
Sometimes you ought to get high
And try some things for a while
Because when you try for a while
Your perspective seems strange
Strange is different and different is good
When nothing is the way that you though it would be
Is it any wonder that you seem so strange to me?
On the open road is where you're going to find me

Dig Up, Stupid
03:58
|

When you feel left out
And you're unsure why
Will you fall in line
Or will you defy
All the expectations
Got 'em on your head
Will you be a shepherd?
Or will you be a sheep instead?
With his crown of thorns and his pearly whites
Splayed and displayed and for sale
Will we willingly refuse to see
That to live's not complicated
And to love's not complicated
Are we his mistake?
Or could he be ours?
Greed and fear and fraud
Are just like superpowers
They keep the masses quiet
Indolent and slow
Think we know the answers?
We don't know what we don't know

What We Don't Know
03:06

Black Knight Satellite
Circling and in flight
Unknown, untold
Progress on hold
Show me the way from here
Where will we go?
The future isn't clear
The truth couldn't be less true
What you don't know won't hurt you
Movement, instincts
Magnets, in sync
Are they listening?
Or just transmitting?
