so, you say life is tough
and everything is fucked
and hobo wisdom just ain't what it used to be
so, there have been bad times
and there have been worse too
so, this is what it all comes too
shalom daddy-o!
so, when you break your own heart
you don't know where to start
and nothing ever turned out like you planned
you didn't do your best
cuz you know life ain't fair
and disappointment is in the air
shalom daddy-o!

there's no stopping us now
in the water of our dreams
our lives are now flowing together in the same stream
but then comes the minor chord
we switch it up with the minor chord
we don't know what we'll find
then we look
and we see
and we find, there is me
and everyone else is there too
there's no stopping us now
in the water of our dreams
our lives are now flowing together in the same stream

black hole country

cuz we're livin' in black hole country
it's like that everyday, there ain't no reason to change
cuz we're livin' in black hole country
tonite we're learnin' to live in a vacuum of pain
days go by in minutes
and years go by in days
in the center of your universe
expanding and eating your time
there are no rules here
in the place where the
laws of your people or science don't exist
there ain't no gravity
there ain't no reality
cuz we're livin' in black hole country
it's like that everyday, there ain't no reason to change
cuz we're livin' in black hole country
together we can learn to live in a vacuum of pain
it's like thinking about your own brain
or listening to your ears
or tasting the roof of your own mouth
or crying about your tears
if you look into your eyes
don't you be surprised
but in a black hole everyone dies
i'm sorry to say
but it has to end that way
cuz we're livin' in black hole country
it's like that everyday, there ain't no reason to change
cuz we're livin' in black hole country
tonite we're learnin' to live in a vacuum of pain
it's like that everyday, there ain't no reason to change
together we can learn to live in a vacuum of pain

memory lane
03:37
|
|||
|
you know that you gotta smash that coal
if you wanna find the diamond in your soul
don't be afraid to not look back
whenever nostalgic demons attack
don't let those feelings leave you trashed
and don't expect too much from the past
there's nothing wrong with respecting all that
but don't let your memories leave you flat
cuz it'll never be the same
while we're living in the game
and we're stuck in memory lane, again
it'll never be the same
it gets harder to explain
when we're stuck in memory lane, again
transition, ascension and all things must pass
don't think too much about the empty glass
cuz your life is moving way too fast
and the darkness was never meant to last
you don't have to die today
just because you didn't get your way
it's time to reevaluate, as long as you're alive it's never too late
cuz it'll never be the same
while we're living in the game
and we're stuck in memory lane, again
it'll never be the same
it gets harder to explain
when we're stuck in memory lane, again

your details
03:15
|

|
your hair might be clear
or your hair might be blue
but no one cares about your details but you
you might be five foot four
or you might be one foot two
but no one cares about your details but you
your eyes might be round
or your eyes might be square
but that's another detail and no one cares
you're a piece to the puzzle
you're a piece to the game
if all the pieces to the puzzle were the same
you might come from money
or you might come from Mars
but no one cares about how interesting you think you are
you might save the children
or you might donate change
but your obsession with all of your details is making you insane
your details
your details

new days eve
04:52
|

|
like an old shoe
or an ill fitting glove
like a black and white movie
or some used up love
we stop when we know that everything is wrong
speed up
sit down
it never takes long
the end of the cycle, the end of the road
there's more than one way to free your soul
there's more than one way to free your soul
everyday is like a holiday for us
everyday is just another brain cell funeral
everyday is like a holiday for us
cuz every nite is new days eve
everyday is like a holiday for us
everyday is just another brain cell funeral
everyday is like a holiday for us
cuz every nite is new days eve
you can see, see what you wanna see
and you can be, be what you wanna be
living in a world full of illusions, delusions are free
there's more than one way to live your life
you know that true magic never dies
there's more than one way to dig for gold
and there's more than one way to free your soul
everyday is like a holiday for us
everyday is just another brain cell funeral
everyday is like a holiday for us
cuz every nite is new days eve

with so many choices in the sky
and so many grains upon the beach
with so many pebbles in your life
which moon are you trying to reach?
ethereal dreams and skeptical scenes
clouds stain the sea
and the thoughts fall out of your head
your plans are transparent to no one now
deception is usually what you seek
the moment we learned how to talk, was the moment we learned how to lie
abstract patterns
circles into squares
3 into 2 and into 3 again
on and off and off and on
and off and on again
there's more than one moon
in this dirty pink moon
you seem to forget,
the distance and the time

my future selfie
my future me
don't let the sun go down on me
don't turn the light out for
my future selfie
my future me
don't let the sun go down on me
don't turn the light out...
if you wanna know who the little bitch is
just wait and see
cuz now it seems the BBC is workin' for me
i'll just sit here in my head
floating out to sea
cuz nothing good has every come from reality
my future selfie
my future me
don't let the sun go down on me
don't turn the light out for
my future selfie
my future me
don't let the sun go down on me
don't turn the light out...
if you wanna know if you have a future
you'll have to let it be
cuz that would be a question for two thousand twenty-three
"RING!"
oh look, you've got a call from 2023
"nothing good has ever come from reality"
my future selfie

static is a colour
03:40
|

the world began without us
and that is how it will end
without the sky there is nothing
no, nothing to hold us in
there's more than one way believe me
cuz the moon ain't made of cheese
it's the lunar complications
and the static that you see
static is a colour
static is my favourite colour
static is the only colour in my head
just because it could be worse
doesn't mean that it shouldn't be better
there's no reason, no reason why
that doesn't mean there's no reason to try
it's the difference between what i see
and what the world means to me
the wolf is at the door
and the birds are acting strange
the patterns of insanity
the rules have all been changed
don't let it get you down
no, don't let it get to you
static can be your favourite,
your favourite colour too
static is a colour
static is my favourite colour
static is the only colour in my head
just because it could be worse
doesn't mean that it shouldn't be better
there's no reason, no reason why
that doesn't mean there's no reason to try
it's the difference between what i see
and what the world means to me
life isn't long
and life isn't fair
and it's always better on the other side
until you get there

cuz the lord loves a happy ghost
a crappy ghost
a slappy ghost
yeah the lord loves a happy ghost
a crappy ghost
a slappy ghost
keepin' busy, full heart
always on the go
idle dreams fade away
you never know what you don't know
cuz the lord loves a happy ghost
a crappy ghost
a slappy ghost
yeah the lord loves a happy ghost
a crappy ghost
a slappy ghost
keepin busy, full heart
always on the go
idle dreams fade away
you never know what you don't know
the devil's in hell, and the bat's in the bell,
and the cemetary's full you can tell by the smell
cuz we're all livin' in a ghost town now,
yeah we're all livin' in a ghost town now

choices
03:36

|
drunk and sober, at the same time
high and low, it ain't no crime
nothing is right, and nothing is left
love and hate, it's all the same to me
choices, voices
there is no life
choices, voices
there is no life you see
choices, voices
there is no life
in the dead, dead city of chicago
impossible problems, impossible dreams
my destiny remains a mystery to me
it's not the end, whichever way you see
just remember that happiness is free
choices, voices
there is no life
choices, voices
there is no life you see
choices, voices
there is no life
in the dead, dead city of chicago
