Get it out of your head
Get it out of your mind
A path designed to keep us close
But shield us from the outside
Well there’s something that you say
There’s something that you do
That falls short of comfort or aid
You said you heard me
Another thing you say
At the back of everything
And it’s such a right shame
The wrong kind of time
Turn aside to get away (from)
The right kind of time
Get it out of your head
Get it out of your heart
Get it out of your mind
Put it out of time

It came once as a warning
It corroded your time
It came once as a warning
It corroded your time
Life still as the morning
It corroded your time
And who caused this wonderful war?
Who did you leave in the grime?
And it once...
Came as warning
It corroded your time
Deaf and blind to the scorning
It corroded your time
And who caused this wonderful war?
Who did you leave in the grime?
Who caused this wonderful war?
Who caused, who caused, who caused this waste of time?
It came once as a war
Who called it functionally benign?
It came once as a war
Who called, who called, who called it a waste of time?
None to thrive, belief before design
It corroded your time...
Pressure, to take you off-line

Lullaby // Lexicon
Little to offer as clarion
Contaminate // Germinate
Where all transactions refuse the state
Never rise // Never worn
Confuse the optics with the city-born
They’ll crawl to Regent’s
Feet, one more time
Sycophant towing the line
You said they’d haunt me
One of many signs
Clearly now at the of their line
So contaminate…
Never rise // Never worn

Sycophant towing the line
You said they’d haunt me
It’s all by design
Clearly now at the of their line
So contaminate // germinate
Little to offer

Please repeat what you have vowed
You’re going to say it anyway, the quiet out loud
Please remove if not approved
You’re going to do it anyway, and feign confused
Well there's tension - it's from all sides - in the eye of eyes
It’s From all sides, in the eye of eyes
Please remove if not approved
You’re going to do it anyway, and feigned amused
Well there's pressure - it's from all sides - in the eye of eyes
As words collide, in the eye of eyes
What you deride, in the eye of eyes
And it’s from all sides...
And it's now you say it’s time to change
Choked yourself on what remained
Please repeat what you have vowed
Please repeat the quiet out loud
Please repeat what you have howled
And please repeat what you have vowed

Was their final
Order full of strife
They got your number
Next they’ll take your life
They’ll choose the bottom line
Every single time
They’ll choose the bottom line
Every single time
A tragedy
It’s what’s at stake
Your defined worth
Measure what you make
They’ll choose the bottom line
Every single time
They’ll choose the bottom line
Every single goddamned time
And there’s pressure – it’s from all sides
Pressure – it’s from all sides
There’s pressure – it’s from all sides
Pressure – it’s from all sides
And was their final
Order full of strife
They got your number
Next they’ll take your life every goddamned time

There’s a feeling in my brain that I just can’t turn off
Try to control myself but I just cannot stop
Attempt an explanation but can’t find words to say
I go for moderation but then push it all the way

This world’s on fire
Still we never change
Heading for destruction
Searching for someone to blame
Waiting
Waiting for the end
Waiting
Waiting for the end
Temperature is rising
Facing the coming end
We’ll just keep on taking
Until there’s nothing left
Waiting
Waiting for the end
Waiting
Waiting for the end
This world is on fire
Still we never change
Heading for destruction
Is it too fucking late?

Humanity seems lost
We confuse cruelty for strength
We live without compassion
And we celebrate deceit
Is that Human Nature?
Human Nature
When we show each other kindness
Or when we try to help
Is that going against our nature?
Are we just betraying ourselves?
Is that Human Nature?
Human Nature
Humanity is lost
And we might be the last
Can we go against our nature
And forge a different path?

Demoralized every day
it’s hard to find something real
Unable to find connection
Yearning for something to feel
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen
Our thoughts and actions
Manipulated by corporations
We do whatever they want
Addicted to their validation
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen
Fed images of distorted reality
Every single day
Don’t know when I’ll have the strength
To finally look away
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen
Life viewed through a screen

It keeps building and building
I can’t find a release
Try to find a new way
My own body’s killing me
Tension
Tension
Tension
Building
Walls keep closing around me
There’s no way to break free
Try to find a new way
Daily life is killing me
Tension
Tension
Tension
Building
Tension building
Need a release
