New Season

it's the new season! time for me to stumble into line
is this spring, summer, fall? i just can not tell anymore
when the billboard is blinding me with a new face every week,
attention span slims down every day
when the water hits, we crumble
looking so thin in our new paper clothes
if I can only see the world from my eyes,
then why am i trying so hard to see it from yours?
it's the new season! where will the spotlight hit next?
no one's noticing the green flesh falling from their bones
anticipation swells, drool drips down our chins
there's moans and groans and i'm starving
when the water hits, we crumble
looking so thin in our new paper clothes
if I can only see the world from my eyes,
then why am i trying so hard to see it from yours?
i'm the next trend
NO HE IS/no i am/I'M IN?/no you're in!
i'm the next trend
NO SHE IS/no i am/I'M IN?/no you're in!
i'm the next trend
NO HE IS/no i am/I'M IN?/no you're in!
i'm the next trend
your hair is so last season and so is that ugly shirt
it's safe to swallow, it's made edible,
you won't feel a thing anymore
you're so spring, you're so fall
you're so late you're nothing at all
you're so spring, you're so fall
you're nothing at all!
when the water hits, we crumble
looking so thin in our new paper clothes
if I can only see the world from my eyes,
then why am i trying so hard to see it from yours?
it's the new season!

Collateral Damage
03:48
|
|||
we were born and raised your collateral children,
and you said, "it's time to grow and mend this
sinking world. time's are hard we take what we are given,"
and we say, "all that's given is this water to drown in"
life goes on, life goes on
we are bound and chained by your decisions that narrow
every possibility you could ever dream
now you must be the one who reckons your mistakes
hear our cry and know this fight only begins
life goes on
life, it just goes on and on
oh, little children don't you know? life goes on
life goes on
life, it just goes on and on
oh, little children don't you know? life goes on
well, you tell us what to do and where to go
but every path has the same set of thorns
in our own way, we learn to grow
and we calm, calm down and carry on
we carry on!

The End is Nigh
04:00
|
|||
every time i fall asleep and close my eyes
i dream that the whole world will die
when happiness becomes a crime,
this is the start of the greatest decline
turn up the sound to max volume
and dance around to our impending doom
so, kiss your loved ones good night and bye
run through the streets, and scream "the end"
tear up the scripts you wrote to guide your life
tear down the walls you built that lie
when all final moments last lifetimes
no confined feelings are left behind
turn up the sound to max volume
and dance around to our impending doom
so, kiss your loved ones good night and bye
run through the streets, scream "the end is nigh"
it doesn't matter what we do or what we say
we are meant to die anyway
it doesn't matter where we go or where we stay
as long as it is far away
so level the throttle down as hard as you can
we do not need a map or a plan
these streets are your territory, so vandalize them as your own
howl to the night sky "we are not alone"
it doesn't matter what we do or what we say
we are meant to die anyway
so level the throttle down as hard as you can
as long as we're far away

Late Night Show

i wanna go to the late night show
where torn stickers cover the bathroom walls
and what you say doesn't matter at all
I wanna go to the late night show
where i can dance to the trance and bang my head
'till all my brain cells are dead
DEAD!
plain shirt, blue jeans, and tennis shoes don't mean a thing to me
oh please, not another slow song to make me fall asleep
oh yeah, come one! take me to the late night show
i wanna go to the late night show
where i can meet all the freaks just like me
and get a little naughty
come a little closer, say "hello"
we can dance under the dayglo
we're just gonna get a little psycho
wa-wa-wa-wah!
plain shirt, blue jeans, and tennis shoes don't mean a thing to me
oh please, not another slow song to make me fall asleep
oh yeah, come one! take me to the late night show
come a little closer, say "hello"
we can dance under the dayglo
we're just gonna get a little psycho
o-o-o-oh <3
come a little closer, say "hello"
we can dance under the dayglo
we're just gonna get a little psycho
wa-wa-wa-wah!
Late
Night
Late
Night
$#%&!
SHOW!
3-2-1!
plain shirt, blue jeans, and tennis shoes don't mean a thing to me
oh please, not another slow song to make me fall asleep
oh yeah, come one! take me to the late night show
take me to the late night show
come a little closer, say "hello"
Come a little closer, say "Hello"
come a little closer, say "Hello!"
*meow*

High Noon
04:53
|

i don't know how i'll look at you tomorrow
you're so sublime
my words are meant to tie you up
they do their best, but they're never enough
your voice sends me into a panic
like the town bell, that signals high noon
my fingers are numb, they're slipping off the trigger
but i can hold my bat out and pray for a sting
oh, how will i look at you tomorrow?
you're so divine
i'm so sick of these bullshit butterflies
they've been flying all my life, do they ever get tired?
i know that i do
i know it's not worth getting upset
it's so easy to stack up regret
it's always been hard to find words automatic
but these lips shoot one by one
i don't know how i'll look at you tomorrow
you're so sublime
my words are meant to tie you up
they do their best
