dense moisture envelops the summer air
once a time of drunken stumbles across campus courtyards and down dormitory stairs
careless memories, carefree attractions
yes, we all seek to find some kind of traction
we don't dance without consequence
we don't allow spontaneous exuberance
to become one with the artery or is this just a concrete vein?
a road that glows in the rearview
a visible, yet intangible energy seeps through this perforated scene
we don't dance without consequence
we don't allow for spontaneous exuberance
this duality suspends reality
the nocturnal and diurnal minds
yes they try to coincide
but they are wont to collide
the nocturnal and diurnal minds
tumulutous inside
seeking resolve for luminance
resolve for luminance

Enraged
04:12

teens in limousines
big wig's child's just wild enough to be queen of the scene
news and magazines
tell me when it's bad enough, is it good enough for me?
now that i'm enraged, never to return it's all illusion anyway
adult drama queens
constantly complain all day and rain on my parade
hip stars and their cars
fascinated and agitated with paparazzi scars
now that i'm enraged, never to return it's all illusion anyway
plastic junkie dreams
the weakness is a sickness trying to get yourself clean
makes you want to scream or pop a pill, relax and chill
your mind and soul are weak
now that i'm enraged, never to return it's all illusion anyway

Sleepwalking
05:12
|

|
weary citizens hustle the pavement
and i cannot spare a solitary dime
shooting songbirds with barreled shotguns
unleash the murder to summon some truth
demarcations of death and achievement
in prominent places up on high
hey thanks for asking i'm doing just "fine."
another smile and nod to perpetuate that lie
where's the sound of protest drums?
voices inside have gone numb
on pins and needles, the mental status quo
we drop the social hammer upon the ones that stand up
we drop the social hammer upon the ones that stand up
we need and succeed with unbridled uniformity
where's the sound of protest drums?
voices inside have gone numb
sleepwalking. it's exhausting me

so what if you're loaded?
the search lights' on the crowd
criminal minded
exodus out of town
look at your people stare at the wall
sit there and wonder which ones gonna fall?
it'll be you babe
it will always be you baby
look at your best friends
are you glad they're around?
will you sit by their bedsides?
turn those smiles to frowns?
by playing the blame game
it most certain is me
uncompromising
fulfilling your fantasies
mine will be you babe
they will always be you baby
all around you claim your down with this
but i tend to think your guessing is wrong baby
listen up as i present you your choices
clear your head or you will be fed
twisted dolly voices
medicated for leisure
people screaming in rhyme
trying to sell the concepts
about the denial of time
they ask the same questions
those have asked before you
it's a conflict of interest
believing your lies are true
they're true babe
they will always be true baby
all around you claim you're down with this
but i tend to think your guessing is wrong, baby
listen up as i present you your choices
clear your head or you will be fed
twisted dolly voices

this is a shock to the system
what you are hearing
what do i sound like?
what am i singing?
who do i look like?
can i break you down to the very elementary?
what are the chords?
can you bring it?
are you just another flake?
cause there was someone else before you
that did it better than you
an easy sing-a-long:
we all are fakes!
could you be more original?
is that asking so much?
cause i believe in throwing stones as long as they dont hit me
there was someone else before you
that did it better than you
an easy sing-a-long:
we all are fakes!
this is a shock to your system
what you are hearing
what do i sound like?
what am i singing?
who do i look like?
