Running on the wheel
Like every other day
Want to get out now?
You gotta learn your way
Nonsense on my feed
Frustration on the news
Not a lot to gain
Or lose
Stop running on the wheel
Stop running on the wheel
Know I can't hide from what is true
Every now and then I get lost in the groove
I wanna stay there
Stay there!
What is left of me
If there isn't a you?
Have to make another plan
Or two
Thought I'd see a change
But not for very long
So I'll be staying here
With my favorite song
Stop running on the wheel
Stop running on the wheel
Stop running
Stop running
Yeah!
I know I can't hide from what is true
But every know and then I get lost in a groove
I wanna stay there
Stay there!

Stop the World

Would it be a frightful sight
If I could turn black to white?
If I could turn white to black
Tell me would you take it back?
Do you know what's going on?
Do you sing another song?
You can run and you can hide
But surely you burn inside
Walls will crumble, statues fall
But in the night you crave it all
You're living with a Holy Ghost
Can you hear them call? Can you hear them call?
They call!
I can't stop the world from
I can't stop the world from
I can't stop the world from
Falling and falling
This is such a crazy game
We're playing who's to blame
While everything just falls apart
A silver bullet to the heart
Is what the people need
It's how the greedy feed
It's every church's creed
I sit and watch pretty babies bleed
But I can't stop the world from
I can't stop the world from
I can't stop the world from
Falling and falling
I can't stop the world from
I can't stop the world from
I can't stop the world from
Falling and falling
falling and falling......

Where do you go in the Empire state
With a vampire state of mind
Where the buildings rise so high
The people sink so low
A beautiful day is coming around
A sheer white scarf is floating down
Traffic stops all over town
Everybody turns at the sound
Once you leap you can't go back
You could land on a UN Cadillac
The note said please don't let them see me
Won't you please destroy my body
Tell my daddy I cannot marry
'Cause I've got my mommy in me
Once you leap you can't go back
You could land on a UN Cadillac
Broken glass crumpled metal
Serene as a flower petal
Beautiful in life, so beautiful in death
Everybody left haunted and bereft
Once you leap you can't go back
You could land on a UN Cadillac
Look out below
Look out below
Look out below
Look out below...

I saw you coming from a thousand miles away
I saw you coming from a thousand miles away
You don't care what you do or what you say
I see the streets you walk are paved with gold
I see the streets you walk are paved with gold
You've got a gilded heart
And you're blood runs cold
If you're one thing I'm the other
You're a no good creep, you're a soulsucker
I saw you walking under loveless skies
I saw you walking under loveless skies
You wear a black, a black disguise!
If you're one thing I'm the other
You're a no good creep, you're a soulsucker
Soulsucker
Soulsucker
Soulsucker
A motherfuckin' soulsucker!
I saw you coming from a thousand miles away
I saw you coming from a thousand miles away
I don't care what you do or what you say
I don't care what you do or what you say
I don't care what you do or what you say
I don't care what you do or what you say

Neighbor

Did you see or care, another bad day
He sees the passersby, and won't say a word
The cardboard sign denies what he wants to say
It's just enough not to offend
I guess he fell through the cracks
My neighbor sees me, I look away
He stares forward, I could spare the change
Avert your eyes, go on your way
Or maybe take a stand, and summon the brave
The crush of time says save it for another day
Look just enough not to offend
I guess he fell through the cracks
My neighbor sees me, I look away
He stares forward, I said not today
I see a man
I see a man
And look away
The crush of time time says save it for another day
Look just enough not to offend
I guess he fell through the cracks
My neighbor sees me, I look away
He stares forward, I could spare the change
It's getting colder
It's getting colder

Things I Need
03:56

Time to think, room to breathe
A place to rest my head
Are some of the things I need
Not to follow, and count the cost
Step step step now we're lost
Oh I need peace of mind
Help me with the things I need
Today
Help me with the things I need
Stay
Promises, claims, I count to ten
And listen for more lies
Some people are easily fooled
Say it, post it, shout it again
It takes on it's own life
Ratings come at price
Help me with the things I need
Today
Help me with the things I need
Stay
Who's our example, who's to lead
Who'd listen anyway
Does power corrupt or is corruption
The ladder to power
Through it all
I have something to hope for
I need the truth
I need it now

I can't find the time
To even drink up all my wine
But I'm thinking and I'm drinking
For the love of it all
Then you come along
With your poison for a song
Yeah it's stinking shit your slinging
And they're loving it all
You who live in fear
All you say is all you hear
And I do love her so
And when we start to go
There's no stopping and all the talking
Seems to disappear
But night will turn to day
And I'll hear someone say
Something he said, something she said
And it's starting again
You who live in fear
All you say is all you hear
In your echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Yeah all the usual crooks
Will spend time burning books
For the reaching and the teaching
And the freeing of minds
Leaders fail to lead
Yeah, it's wisdom they don't heed
And all your thoughts and prayers
Have no bearing at all
You who live in fear
All you say is all you hear
Yeah you who live in fear
All you say is all you hear
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo, in your echo
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha cha cha cha cha cha
Chamber!
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Echo chamber (echo chamber)
Oh yeah!

Here in the city
It's such a pity
Here in our city
It's all the rage
Trapped in a cage
It's all the rage
Here in the city
It isn't pretty
You can get shitty
At your neighborhood bar
Pretend you're a star
At your neighborhood bar
You'll be a star
Here in the city
Ah the girls are so pretty
Just another kitty
She's gonna be a star
If she'll just get in the car
She's gonna be a star
Year she's a star
Yeah gonna be a star
Gonna be a star
She's gonna be a star
She gonna be a star
She gonna be a star
Gonna be a star
She's gonna be a star
Gonna be a star
She gonna be a star

I met a stranger in the park one day
Probably never meet again
Said something about the troubles she's been through
Time goes by
She said she'd like to prove something to somebody
But she don't know what
She'd stand in line and pass the time and not intrude
On anybody's busy day
(When I'm old)
Nothing is of consequence
Swore she'd never end up cynical or hopeless
But here we are
Said she went a bit too far, a bit too far, and pushed too hard
And she's alone
Working out the kinks and learning to live
Took much too long, much too long
So she'll stand in line and pass the time and not intrude
On anybody's busy day
Lacking in ambition
Nothing is of consequence
When I'm old
Met a stranger in the park one day
Never meet again
Said something about the troubles she's been through
Time goes by
She said she'd like to mean something to somebody
But she don't know what
She'll stand in line and pass the time and not intrude
On anybody's busy day
And now I'm old
When I'm old
When I'm old
When I'm old
When I'm old

I want to catch every tear that falls from your eye
It's holy water like no other please don't cry
I will always be right there by your side
Don't ever cut your hair, don't ever say goodbye
They'll try to take away your every single right
The only thing that's left to do is stand and fight
When you see rockets flying in the sky
I leave nothing left to burn no one left to crucify
I used to live in the USA
I used to live in the USA
I used to live in America, but baby it's all gone
I used to live in America, an expatriate at home
You can turn it up or you can turn it down
Just don't ever let them turn you around
My heart is breaking to think you'd walk alone
Just take my hand and I will walk you down that road
I used to live in the USA
I used to live in the USA
I used to live in America, but baby it's all gone
I used to live in America, an expatriate at home
I used to live in the USA
I used to live in the USA
I used to live in America, but baby it's all gone
I used to live in America, an expatriate at home
Yeah, I used to live in America but baby it's all gone
I used to live in America, an expatriate at home
We fight on!
