This is a commercial for my army and my navy
This is a rehearsal for all the empty promises I will be And I won't let you down I won't let you down And I won't let you down Done letting you down This is a commercial for freedom while freedom is in Hades This is a rehearsal of incoherent double talk and maybes And it won't let you down It won't let you down It won't let you down Done letting you down It's okay to be their disappointment baby It's okay to fly the flag It's okay to be my disappointment baby It's okay to fly the flag This is a commercial for my army and my navy This is a rehearsal for all the empty promises I will be And I won't let you down I won't let you down I won't let you down Done letting you down |

I've a favor to ask, maybe this is a bad time
You know whenever you ask there's never a good time How do you take your heart out of it? How can you take your heart out of this? And how do you stop once you've started? Somebody gave you a choice And all you do is abuse it If God He gave you a voice Then use it Here's something to ask if these are the bad times Because whenever you ask why it's never the good times How will we get ourselves out of it? How can you take your heart out of this? And how do you stop once you've started? Somebody gave you a choice And all you do is abuse it If God He gave you a voice Then use it Just a lullaby for the new world order |

Here by my side an angel
Here by my side the devil Never turn your back on me Never turn your back on me again Here by my side it's heaven Here by my side you are destruction Here by my side a new color to paint the world Never turn your back on it Never turn your back on it again Here by my side it's heaven Careful, you be careful This is where the world drops off Careful, you be careful And you breathe in and you breath out for it Ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon And you give in and you give out for it Ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon Never turn your back on it Never turn your back on it again Careful, you be careful |

Here it comes and there it goes
Another day of decomposing light In a world called catastrophe my native tongue is blasphemy So that's the one I'll write And baby can you feel it? And don't it make you want to lay down and close your eyes? Remember how we started because since then I'm a waste Since then I'm a fool Since then I'm a dog In a world called catastrophe Since then I'm a waste Here it comes and there it goes Another day of getting up to fight In a world called catastrophe my native tongue is blasphemy So that's the one I'll write And baby can you hear it? And don't it make you want to wake up and open your eyes? Remember how we started because since then I'm a waste Since then I'm a fool Since then I'm a dog In a world called catastrophe Since then I'm a waste |

One foot in front of the other
One foot back to counter it Days like these you've got to find it in some other way It's all or nothing baby Avalanche, start inside of me Avalanche, down through the trees Avalanche, start inside of me Avalanche, hell down through the trees If everyone's a casualty Then take your time there ain't no trouble If the weather's fine and we're feeling crazy There's always drinks and dancing in the rubble I'm spinning and you're spinning The world's spinning and we're laughing And I'm charming, the devil's charming And we're ruined but we're still building And I'm selling and you're counting The world's stopping but we keep going And we're ruthless and we're cunning And I'm heir to it all Days like these you've got to find it in some other way It's all or nothing baby Avalanche, start inside of me Avalanche, down through the trees Avalanche, start inside of me Avalanche, hell down through the trees The key is to your kingdom The key is to your heart Neither one a doorway But both of them a part So one foot in front of the other |

Buy in it'll shut you up
Try it, it should shut you up We've brought you someone in to shut you up It's a life's work While we were hunting rabbits I came upon a clear The sky its stars like fortune drilled me Until now I was a soldier Until now I dealt in fear These years of cloak and dagger Have left us disappeared And I dance, and I sing And I'm a monkey in a long line Buy in it should shut you up Try it, it should shut you up They've brought someone in to shut you up And it's getting to be light work While we were hunting rabbits I came upon a clear And the sky the stars like fortune filled me Until now I was a soldier Until now I dealt in fear These years of cloak and dagger Have left us disappeared And I dance and I sing And I'm a monkey in a long line of kings And we dance and we sing And we're all monkeys in a long line I'm just a boat on the ocean And I'm just a ship lost at sea |

Here's the bright end of nowhere
Here's the results of all our days Used to lay on the roof and drink beer And try and count up all the ways That you could waste away Looking back it seemed so simple But having done it I couldn't say The lights are out baby And I'm a mouse The lights are out Baby so hear me out The lights are out baby And I'm a mouse So here's the bright end of nowhere Here's the commercial of all our days Go on vacations and drink beer And try and forget all the ways We let ourselves get away Looking back it seemed so simple But having done it It's not the same The lights are out baby And I'm a mouse The lights are out Baby so hear me out The lights are out baby And I'm a mouse |

The pink pills are for our sanity
We are buried in the Earth because we can't beat gravity You are still here and so made to figure You are an important part o the computer Born of the sea, blink The sea is dead Falls out of me these sockets in my head Everyone's a captain baby, ship of fools Drowning while they're telling you it's been alright Dream the dream of your attrition The nameless name of your condition It will be needing you a little while longer You are an important part of the computer After this mission it will let you go Help you to forget everything and everyone you know In a world of captains baby, ship of fools Don't you know they're lying when they're telling you it's been all right? |

This lightning's fine
She picks up these tired parts of mine Who's carrying you tonight? She carries me all of mine Up again, down again, out of your head When she's beside you you're nearly not so dead Up again, down again, out of your head When she's beside you you're always at your best This lightning's fine She picks up these tired parts of mine Who's carrying you tonight? Every now and then baby Ain't it good to be alive? Up again, down again, out of your head When she's beside you you're nearly not so dead Up again, down again, out of your head When she's beside you you're always at your best So a song for the girl |

How now are you gone awry?
How now are we back here tonight? That's all there is Roll the dice This is all there is Roll the dice How now baby is a little bit enough of it When you live a double life? How now are you going to bite both hands? That's all there is Roll the dice This is all there is Roll the dice How now baby is a little bit enough of it When you live a double life? Well I knew but I've forgotten Because everyone keeps asking How come they feel so terrible If terrible is in fashion |

Today I'm leaving
This bullshit one horse town Full of cowboys and Indians Who only have balls when there's a camera around Where the girls they move to you When money gets thrown around Even happiness is using you Maybe you'll figure that out It's a long way down You know it's a damn shame the sun don't shine underground Maybe that's where it's been Maybe that's where I've been Maybe that's where it's been A long way down So today I'm leaving This bullshit circus town Do you ever get the feeling There ain't no hole when you're not around? Where the world it moves to you When the money gets spread around Even happiness is using you Maybe you'll figure that out It's a long way down You know it's a damn shame the sun don't shine underground Maybe that's where it's been Maybe that's where I've been Maybe that's where it's been A long way down ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By GOOD, MATTHEW <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

There's the house
There's the doorway Been locked out The lights are out anyway And loosely reconditioned To be just so refined A last grasp at the life worth living In these standard shoes and what's left of my lines You can see right through me Hey I've been thinking Why don't we get out of here tonight? Get in the car and just start driving Fuck them if they can't take a joke Right? I've fallen asleep again And when I wake up you won't be here Don't you think I don't know why? I've been asleep for years You can see right through me |
