Angle Of Attack

Both barrels blazing, can't see targets for reprieve
Not getting anywhere, when nothing's lost
Then nothing's gained with time
Sliver of substance, hearts get thrown into the pyre
Used to be so nimble, now it's just all atrophy and angst
Entertaining lies and boring dead fish tanks
Please try to stay on message
In these extraordinary times, use the ordinary minds
To pave the road of good intentions
Please suspend those hearts and minds, with extraordinary crimes
Until there's nothing that remains
Circle, circle, circle down that drain
Partisan pollster, where's your appetite for truth
Numeric apostasy, skewing trends of lost and shattered youth
Humanity screaming at the sky
In these extraordinary times, use the ordinary minds
To pave the road of good intentions
Please suspend those hearts and minds, with extraordinary crimes
Until there's nothing that remains
Circle, circle, circle down that drain

Wishing to claim absolution, from the burden of humanity
The light at the end of the tunnel's gone dark and there's nothing much left to believe
So crack open all of those textbooks, commit to the figures and fact
Pride over progress, a fault not a forte, can never get what's lost back
So don't you let yourself be fooled
Let yourself be fooled
Break down the key demographics, obfuscate merits of truth
Play down the true motivation at work here and ignore the immobile youth
Soon they'll be sounding alarm bells, they'll say it's us against them
A circular, pointless endeavor with nothing to lose or to gain in the end
So don't you let yourself be fooled

Oh, She Said

Lay right there beside me, until we turn to dust
Time keeps us hanging on
Oh, she said
Don't try to hold me down, might just fall apart
Just barely hanging on
Oh, she said
Oh, she said
Lay right there beside me, until we turn to rust
Time keeps us hanging on
Oh, she said
Don't try and hold me down, might just break your heart
Just barely hanging on
Oh, she said
Got what I need
Hold me close
We can make it through the night
Take my hand
Won't leave you hanging on
Oh, she said
Gimme hope, gimme something to believe
It feels so right
Won't leave you hanging on
Oh, she said
Oh, she said
Oh, she said
Got what I need
Hold me close
We can make it through the night
Take my hand
Won't leave you hanging on
Oh, she said
Gimme hope, gimme something to believe
It feels so right
Won't leave you hanging on
Oh, she said
Oh, she said
Oh, she said
Gimme hope, gimme something to believe
It feels so right
Don't leave me hanging on
Oh, she said

Wanna be starting something
Ya think you're better than me?
Say ya got a handle on the new reality
Wanna be starting something
Don't think you're better than me
Flying off the handle is your modus operandi
Why not think?
With potential like a molecule
The world was not prepared for this unscheduled arrival
Sitting there alone lost in the dark
Without a light
Without a spark
Without a doubt
Wanna be starting something
Ya think you're better than me?
Say ya got a handle on the new reality
Wanna be starting something
Don't think you're better than me
Flying off the handle is your modus operandi
Why not think?
Hear the droning of electric bells
Pay no heed to defense against relentless optimism
The tides beating sense against the shore
Washing in
Washing out
Wasting time
Wanna be starting something
Ya think you're better than me?
Say ya got a handle on the new reality
Wanna be starting something
Don't think you're better than me
Flying off the handle
Off the handle
Off the handle
Wanna be starting something
Ya think you're better than me?
Ya say ya got a handle on the new reality
Wanna be starting something
Don't think you're better than me
You're flying off the handle
Off the handle
Off the handle
Wanna be starting something
Wanna be starting something
Off the handle
It's your opportunity

I
I'm falling down
And I don't know
What to do
I
I'm falling down
So I'm gonna
Take it out on you
I'm on fire
You're the one who's gonna burn
Seems no one's gonna learn
Light the match and watch it explode
I
I'm calling out
But it's ringing
Ringing in the dark
I
I'm fading out
But there's always
One last little spark
I'm on fire
You're the one who's gonna burn
Seems no one's gonna learn
Light the match and watch it explode
I'm on fire
You're the one who's gonna burn
Seems no one's gonna learn
Light the match and watch it explode
