LYRICS
Get in the car to drive
I’ve got a long way to go
I need good tunes to occupy
So I try the radio
The voices come from fools
With nothing better to say
It’s the same Super Pop hits
Always overplayed
What are you listening for, what are you listening for
What are you listening for, what are you listening for
So I head down to the record store
To find something real
But they don’t sell real records anymore
Unless it’s got mass appeal
So they say it’s music
Dressed with sex to sell
It’s just radio porn
Just radio hell
What are you listening for, what are you listening for
What are you listening for, what are you listening for
Listen to what the DJ says, it’s bad radio
Listen to what the DJ plays, it’s bad radio
So you take what they give
Cause you don’t know what’s shit
Force fed into your ears
And you just swallow it
What are you listening for, what are you listening for
What are you listening for, what are you listening for
Why, why are you here?
All the reasons so unclear
I’d like to say that I hold you dear
It’s hard to express so I hide behind the fear
And I know it’s wrong to keep holding on
To just one wish for a simple fix
Why, why do you stay?
You’re my excuse to misbehave
I’ll offer up this selfish trade
I’ll let you go if you swear you’ll stay away
And I know it’s wrong to keep holding on
To just one wish for a simple fix
And I know one day you’ll say
I told you, I told you so
So ream me out for this
Make it fast, make it stick
I won’t except it, not one bit
I’ll find compassion but I won’t quit
And I know it’s wrong to keep holding on
To just one wish for a simple fix
And I know one day you’ll say
I told you, I told you so
How does it feel?
You know I play the fool
The fool that lets you get the best of me
I lost my self respect
with things I know shouldn't expect
Oh how what I want clouds what I should see
So I should bottle it up
And throw it deep into the ocean
Bury it beneath the jagged coral reefs
I should hurry it up
Before it gets to my emotions
Take it down drown far under the sea
It's with best intentions
That I hatched this failed idea
And I swear that selfishness is not in sight
But I say to you
And what you say to me
Is never truly all that is on our minds
So I should bottle it up
And throw it deep into the ocean
Bury it beneath the jagged coral reefs
I should hurry it up
Before it gets to my emotions
Take it down and drown far under the sea
Alone, All alone
In a time so unknown
Led by the sound What have I found?
Only a fire I can't put out
I have no doubt. I have no doubt what it's all about
This road we walk so hard
But the end is still so far
Well you've got a right and a cause
But the end is still so far
Cold. Cold as a stone
But alive in others glow
Living upside down
What have I found?
An end to this maze
the only way out
I have my doubts. I have my doubts what its all about
This road we walk so hard
But the end is still so far
Well you've got a right and a cause
But the end is still so far
Where does this leave you now?
At our best, still so perverse
Twisted and cursed - by the very verse
We had our chance but we made it worse
Living in reverse - have we ever heard
Just one word
Of the lessons ignored
In all this time have I not learned
You never get what you deserve
In all this time have I not worked
Yet receive not one reward
In all this time…the lessons ignored
Silence now. Afraid to speak
Afraid to teach. Will we ever reach?
All this stings like another scheme
Caught in between a bitter dream
What have we done?
Will the lessons we’ve heard
In all this time have I not learned
You never get what you deserve
In all this time have I not worked
Yet receive not one reward
In all this time that I’ve endured
A world that’s so unsure
In all this time have I not earned
A respect for this words
In all this time…the lessons ignored
How does it feel coming down on your own
You swore to me you’d be better off all alone
What’s done is done can’t get back what is done
How does it feel knowing now you were wrong
How does it feel when you know you’re gonna hit the ground
Somewhere, somehow that you won’t be found
Now you’re wondering why there’s no one left around
They all walked away
How does it feel coming down on your own
You swore to me you’d be better off all alone
What’s done is done can’t get back what is done
How does it feel knowing now you were wrong
How does it feel when you know you’re dressed like a clown
Playing the same old songs with the same old sound
Now you live by rules that have you bound
You can’t get away
All you’ve shown is arrogance in tone
With every word that you have spoke
To change is bold and this is getting old
If you won’t change then you won’t grow
How would you know
Cause you’re not bold
You won’t show
Cause you sold your soul
You sold your soul
Now we’ve got to get this going
Wake now don’t sleep Get up on your feet
Now we’ve got to take this moment
Don’t be afraid to institute change
Now you’ve got to get it flowing
Time now to think The world’s on the brink
Now you’ve got to start to show it
Time now to act We’re under attack
Cause words are not enough
Talk is so cheap
Irrelevance is shown
By the company that you keep…that you keep
Something’s got to keep it going
Don’t let it stop Straight to the top
Something’s got to keep it moving
Beware of the fall Remember it all
Something’s got to make it worth it
So much at stake What will it take
Something’s got to make you prove it Show them your strength Go to all lengths
I’ve done this all before
I’m done and you still want more of me
No mistaking what I heard
Still saying the same old words to me
You’re always on your quest
You think you know what’s best
You never let it rest
You say you need it
It’s not what you said
I think I’ve been misled Turn this thing around
Cause I don’t need it
I don’t need it
This price I can’t afford
This path is not the course for me
Even if I could endure
There’d still be no reward for me
You’re always seem distressed
Borderline depressed
Every other day
And I don’t need it
What would you expect
For me to just digress
Well I’ve come to far
And I don’t need it
You’re always on your quest
You think you know what’s best
You never let it rest
You say you need it
It’s not what you said
I think I’ve been misled
Turn this thing around
Cause I don’t need it
I don’t need it
You’re always on your quest
You think you know what’s best
You never let it rest
You say you need it
It’s not what you said
I think I’ve been misled
Turn this thing around
Cause I don’t need it
Holding it in. On the tip of your tongue.
You’re silent to live. And uncomfortably numb.
Try to balance it out. It’s so hard to restrain.
You silently shout again and again everyday you awake.
Now you’re left with words that can’t be said
From the depths you struggle for your breath
Now you’re left with words that can’t be said
A fight to the death, it’s your heart against your head
You need the touch. You’re dying to give.
You want it so much. Every chance that you get.
In the context of time it’s best not to wait
Life passes you by, it’s your’s to take
These things that you feel, you hide it so well
You keep it so close, so deep inside, so no one can tell
You can't break me
You can't take away what's true
You don't make me - I do
All this time I spend alone
Playing records writing songs
So who the fuck are you?
To be the way you are
Throwing words like arrows
But only from afar
You can't change me
You can't make me think like you
You don't make me - I DO
Who's to say that I am wrong
To write these words to get along
So who the fuck are you?
To be the way you are
Throwing words like arrows
But only from afar
I just want to play
I just need to celebrate
Stay out of my way
I don't hear what you say
How long does this carry on
No clue to what she is taught
Everyday
Led Astray
How long does he let this go on?
Did what was right be he feels he is wrong
It's a shame
How she's raised
It's a shame How she's raised
It's a shame How she's raised
How she's raised
How much she wished he would call
Deep down she longs to belong
Just the same
Just the same
Just the same
Just the same
Just the same
All that we've done reflects in our young
All that we've done carries on
All that we've done to our daughters and sons
Can't be undone It carries on
It carries on
Holds on tries to be strong
She's left to be all alone
In this state So afraid
Last chance before she is gone
Soon she'll be just like the mom
Led Astray
Led Astray
All that we've done reflects in our young
All that we've done carries on
All that we've done to our daughters and sons
Can't be undone It carries on
It carries on
