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

Bully Pulpit 01:57
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 03:09
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
