I keep no money in holes in the country
You were no brother of mine.
And I've heard for ages, that you're in the good books
You are no brother of mine.
I don't remember the last time I saw you, you were to off(up) for the time
And I'll keep on coming and you keep on running
The future is nothing it's mine
Keep it together for now and forever, i know your university
And you and whose army, I can't see it workin'
Your future is nothing it's mine
I wish i could drive, settle to rewrite
You've found a place in heaven, you're a liar so go

. . .


Oh my life it's started again
You can't know we're ever the same
I feel it, i just can't get the scene to fit
Save me, i wanna stick with the sights
Shoot it up and go for a ride
I fly, she drives over the wall

Kick out all those humans and all
I want it, i just can't seem to get to it
Tv culture it's only a style,
An overdose, it's a part of every time

. . .


Don't let it stand out in the cold
Don't let it fall into a hole
With someone you know
Don't let it out in the cold
Don't let it fall into a hole
With someone you know
Can't get out of bed
You're keeping it straight
This city's a mess
Can't get out of bed
You're keeping it, keep on, get it together
Is this everything you wanted to be, wanted to be, wanted to be
Don't let it stand out in the cold
Don't let it fall into a hole
With someone you know
Don't let it out in the cold
Don't let it fall into a hole
With someone you know
Won't get off the phone
You're holding the rocks
And feeling it all
Won't get off the floor
You know that we're all going off to nowhere
You're nothing that you wanted to be, wanted to be, wanted to be
Can't come in the role
You're filling the holes
And ruining your clothes
Can't get out of bed
It's nothing and no one's coming over to me there
It's nothing that you wanted to be, wanted to be
wanted to be
wanted to be
wanted to be

Movin' in with the scum
And shine a light on the sweet one
Makes the one with the soul,classic girl
Can I have your autograph it's not for what you are
It's for only what you're not
This is not a place, it's a feeling now
Burning up in the sun in the fields
Next to this on a wall, it means everything
Change the world at seventeen what a way to get it right and now she's gotta go
Call it everything you hate and call me something more, call me what you want
Can't stop this feeling now
Get it over the floor didn't feel it
Get it out of the hole, didn't fill me in?

. . .


Leave us, I'm in heaven and I can't believe I'm watching you
When everything you float upon comes down to soon
Jesus hairdo
I mean we all live in America
And if everything you say is true, it's bad tv
And you shine like a star
And you shine like a genius
Fix our hands together
When i surf another wave comes right
Don't wanna cry, know what I need
Oh choose your words
Jesus Hairdo
I mean we all live in America
And it's hard to know reality when you don't have a life
Sing your song whenever
Can't you see you're catchin' something I need

. . .


Feel it closin' in
Sweet European you know
Been waiting for this day to come
It's getting out of hand now and you know
Hey hey you're moving something now
From here in isolation
I don't want you
He's up to your hips again
I don't want your
Sweet hesitaion and you know
You lost all your friends
And now you want to invent some
And you used to feel so proud
Now it's going under ground
Although it makes you very angry
You don't want it watered down
You'll do it again sometime
You're up to your hips again
I can't stand no goodbye forevers now
What if I don't get it right
Couldn't stand to feel so used
I feel you're movin' something now
From here in isolation
We'll do it again sometime
You're up to your hips again

. . .


I wanna patrol all the innocent minds
It's only a dream, it'd be just like the old days.
I know and I feel in the value of sound,
How can we still tear each other's hearts out?

Mess up her mind, mess up my mind,
Mess up her mind, you mess up my mind.

Sun come up,
Sun goes down,
Find a way to get back home and see you today.

I wanna get over this anonymous phase,
Or is it because i feel like being hounded?
Sell me a reason, i'll sell you a sound
I guess in a way i've ended what you started.

Mess up her mind, mess up my mind,
Mess up her mind, you mess up my mind.

Sun comes up,
Sun goes down.
On our way to get back home to see you today.

Kick your kill, save us by
Someone's gonna take you down the line.
And now that i feel in the language of sound
How do we still tear each other's hearts out?

Mess up her mind, mess up my mind,
Mess up her mind, you mess up my mind.

You mess up her mind, you mess up her mind.
You mess up her mind, you mess up my mind.

. . .


What a mess in the space
You set your hair on fire again
In the rustiness of your age
Another rider up in flames
Move in on you in a most sick century
and now you know you've got to know
and now you know you just can't run
and now you know it's all to nothing and it's over
and now you know you've got to know
and now you know you just can't run
and now you know it's all to nothing and it's over
You're the girl who nicked my cage
Hangin' on with the fingernails
and I see the blind come quick then fade
Another rider up in flames
Move in on you in a most sick century
and now you know you've got to know
and now you know you just can't run
and now you know it's all to nothing and it's over
and now you know you've got to know
and now you know you just can't run
and now you know it's all to nothing and it's over
Move in on you
Move in on you
Move in on you

. . .


Coming up and you black out on me
Coming up and you black out on me
Moving into the light now you don't exist
Coming outta the bad times, baby
Coming outta the bad times, baby
Moving into the light you gotta see me land on the sun
Coming outta the rain, baby
Coming outta the rain, baby
Guess you was on the street and you blew my day
Coming up and you black out on me
Coming up and you black out on me
Seen it coming for years and you're this a way
A [?] out over that [?]
And there's enough in the blues
Through the last town
Through the week
I kissed you once on a sunny street
I wanna get to know you inside-out now
I wanna get to know you inside-out now
A [?] out over that [?]
And there's enough in the blues
This is a new day
This is the faith
I'll be the founder and you'll be the way
I'll be the founder and you'll be the way
I'll be the founder and you'll be the way
I'll be the founder and you'll be the way
Ooh...
