I wanna live but I can't find my way And I wanna love but I can't find a way Sleepless nights turn into hollow days Do you feel the same? Do you feel the same? Because I feel it everyday, I feel it everyday No but you don't have to be alone No, you don't have to alone I feel dead inside I need electric life I need electric life I need electric life Before I fade away All the nice things that you say, They don't matter anyway That's a pretty good disguise But you're eyes they tell me lies You know what really brings me down? Selling me dreams and you're not around I feel dead inside I need electric life I need electric life I need electric life Before I fade away

I'm buried in this town I'm losing all my youth I've traded all my time For shelter from the truth Now there's a lot Of little things To not make sense To leave you low I could stay and bide my time and realize I'll never know How to pull a little life right out of thin air The town is calming down The light is growing dim And if I can't take my life I'll live it out for him Now there's a lot Of little things To not make sense To leave you low I could stay and bide my time and realize I'll never know How to pull a little life right out of thin air I'm buried in this town I'm buried in this town I'm buried in this town I'm buried in this town

Confused 04:14
I'm feeling so let down today There's people treating you that way Don't listen to what they say Or what they think about you now, my love They think you've already showed them Just what you love to do I think they got you so confused I think you got me so confused With somebody that's so confused I think you got me so confused With Somebody that's so confused They're only happy when it rains They're only happy when the world's in pain People who can't believe in what they say I don't wanna meet 'em anyway Everyone's a lie in their own way Hey, and it's up for you to choose If you wanna waste some time Or if you wanna lose your goddamn mind Or if you wanna just be so confused I think you got me so confused With somebody that's so confused I think you got me so confused With Somebody that's so confused They're only happy when it rains They're only happy when the world's in pain I should have seen this from the start Collector of lonely hearts And you do a pretty good Goddamn job and who's paying you anyway? I guess I got what I deserve Hey I'm one of them too Remember when you said 'Hey baby, I deserve you' I think you got me so confused With somebody that's so confused I think you got me so confused With Somebody that's so confused They're only happy when it rains They're only happy when the world's in pain World's in pain World's in pain World's in pain

You see this waste? Throw it away You see this face? Call the police I'm feeling tethered to a lot of awful things I'm not happy in the least For every pair of lonely eyes Looking to find what they need There's a wave of shallow vice Obscuring what they see You let these kids behave like animals And then you close down the zoo This restless spirit has been so worn down We wanted more from you I'm not part of this I don't know what this means I'm in my head again I'm here among the weeds One thing at a time, one thing at a time Or everything at once You've got no nails to bite, they're all ground down You've been in your head for months It's hard to play when you're out of time It's harder still when you're out of tune Play together, play together, fall apart There's nothing else to do I'm not part of this I don't know what this means I'm in my head again I'm here among the weeds

Are you gonna do something today? Or waste your time in pain? Are you gonna deal with something real? Or create it in your brain? That time you spent in the mirror Was time you spent in vain When all your friends disappear You'll drive yourself insane Pay into this idiot life and go broke Hold on to what little you have to cope Wake up and get rid of your life, there's no hope There's no hope Hang out in crowds I don't mind Just to piss away the night They're always inundating your ears If they're my peers, then what am I? I'd disappear if I knew how I'd be gone without a sound I wouldn't exist in any amount Disappear without a sound Play into this hideous lie and go broke Hold on to what little you have to cope Wake up and get rid of your life, there's no hope There's no hope

Is this really all there is? This is not enough to live on Is this better? Is this worse? It's getting harder to hold on Every night is Saturday Every morning it's a graveyard Smoking cigarettes in church Telling everyone it's so hard There's a lot to say for breaking free Well what are you waiting for? An hour? A day? A month? A year? You feel like ripping from your skin Well what are you waiting for? A wink? A nod? Or sign from god? There are pictures in my head Drifting in and out of focus Feeling weightlessness inside While letting gravity control us There's an armchair in the sun And it's big enough to hold us If we burn out when we're young You think that anyone will notice? There's a lot to say for breaking free Well what are you waiting for? An hour? A day? A month? A year? You feel like ripping from your skin Well what are you waiting for? A wink? A nod? Or sign from god? To live To die To lose You're mind Is this really all there is? This is not enough to live on Is this better? Is this worse? It's getting harder to hold on Every night is Saturday Every morning it's a graveyard Smoking cigarettes in church Telling everyone it's so hard There's a lot to say for breaking free Well what are you waiting for? An hour? A day? A month? A year? You feel like ripping from your skin Well what are you waiting for? A wink? A nod? Or sign from god? To live To die To lose You're mind To live To die To lose You're mind

Creating many kinds of hell A way of limiting my love There's no end to all the booze There's no end to all the drugs Now there's nothing getting through No love for me, no love for you And the busy little corner of my mind Still it rattles on There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine Just as I'm living in my dreams I throw myself awake Too many hours in the day And it's more than I can take Now there's nothing getting through No love for me, no love for you And the busy little corner of my mind Still it rattles on There's a wall There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine There's a wall and it's mine

Static Eyes 03:37
Why am I still here? Is this some kind of dream? Are we living in a TV screen Where nothing's really what it seems No, everything's a lie here to me Empty eyes are all I see Empty eyes are all I see here anymore Wake up from this dream Static eyes will never see The prison built for you and me Locked behind the silver screen There's a better place for you and me Now why am I still here And is this some kind of joke We all play our parts here in this show With shallow thoughts and silver souls I wanna blow it all away here today Before I become a slave A slave to everything I hate here and more Wake up from this dream Static eyes will never see The prison built for you and me Locked behind the silver screen There's a better place for you and me Wake up from this dream Static eyes will never see The prison built for you and me Locked behind the silver screen There's a better place for you and me

I can see a thousand stars in the sky But none of them shine as bright As the one that brings you life So before it collapses and burns the sky Please give me a reason why Just give me a reason why We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad I can see a dark hand in the sky And he's coming to control your mind And if you give him a reason why He'll rip apart your life And if you ask him why He'll just stand stand there as you die Just give me a reason why Please give me a reason why We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad And if you stray from their beliefs They'll bring you to your knees And if you try and run There's a man with a loaded gun And he'll shoot you down He'll shoot you down He's protect by some law Bestowed on him by God We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad We're living in a world gone mad

We're alive and alone We're alone and afraid We're afraid of the end It'll never happen again At a loss with the world Is this living at all? We're alive and alone Let it go Let it go Get a grip Let it go We're alive and alone We're alive and alone We're alive and alone Let it go Let it go Get a grip Let it go Not a care in your heart Not a thought in your head You may never get out Living safely within At a loss with the world Is this living at all? We're alive and alone Let it go Let it go Get a grip Let it go We're alive and alone We're alive and alone We're alive and alone Let it go Let it go Get a grip Let it go
