I woke, cold and alone Adrift in an open sea Caught up in regrets And tangled in nets Instead of your arms wrapped around me And I wept, but my tears are anathema here Just more water to fill my lungs I hear someone scream "Oh God what is it that I've done?"
I am drowning in a digital sea I am slipping beneath the sound Here my voice goes to ones and zeros I'm slipping beneath the sound
A song from somewhere below Deadly and slow begins Both sickly and sweet Now picking up speed Ushering in the world's end And the ghost of Descartes screams again in the dark "Oh how could I have been so wrong?" But above the screams still the sirens sing their song
I am drowning in a digital sea I am slipping beneath the sound Here my voices goes to ones and zeros I'm slipping beneath the sound
the Blood Brothers - Love Rhymes With Hideous Car Wreck
Those tire tracks Zigzag your torso like a Devil's self portrait The car accident, the skin graft treatment, the flower baskets The wincing relatives...
You bid her farewell then got in your car And that's the last thing that you can recall And when they pulled you out You didn't know your name Exploding semi truck blurred your face with flame...
You met Jane four years ago today Dancing at some vomit-stained frat party Her newspaper gown, flashing headline brown, her violent gypsy dance Her tired underpants...
Love, love, love, love, love, love Love, love, love, love, love, love Rhymes with pity now Love, love, love, love, love, love Love, love, love, love, love, love Rhymes with sympathy now
Jane let you touch and feel her She was so free like a pineapple in a tree, but You said it's dangerous To be so intimate You know it's dangerous, dangerous, dangerous
And Jane said when she laid on her back The sun hit her body like an ugly landscape
But some things never get better Like used cars and bad livers So you traded her in for a better looking brand One with fake porno tits A pad lock on her lips Disposable tan Biodegradable hands
Back at the hospital You got no visitors at all She visits you in your sleep But that newspaper gown is always on fire
Back at the hospital You got no visitors at all She visits you in your sleep But that newspaper gown is always on fire
She met him a week after you left her When you tossed out her touch to the garbage collector He talked her out of her skirt in his beer-soaked apartment And then they did all the things You never said that you wanted And the sirens are laughing underneath your skull And your thoughts are turning dull, callous and cold Yesterday you gave your burden a name Yesterday you gave your burden a face
But your burden looks an awful lot like her
Love, love, love, love, love, love Love, love, love, love, love, love Rhymes with pity now Love, love, love, love, love, love Love, love, love, love, love, love Rhymes with sympathy now Love, love, love, love, love, love Love, love, love, love, love, love
Oh, Team Machine! I'm a pound of flesh in a drum machine's dream. We watched crabs and lobsters eat a dead cop's throat and stuff our mouths with gutted stereos. Oh, Team Machine! Every single piano i've ever met in my life never sounded as good as melted Casio keys burning in a sea that sings out in 3-D. Oh, that Laser Rain kept me up all night again scratching at the window like a bright colored beast howling at the dawn like an adulterous priest. shake your hands like they're full of feathers. shake your wings like they're laced with sound. shake your skin like a scrambled tv. gnash your teeth like a flamingo swarm.
and if your night unplugs its life. Digital sunrise. Digital sunset. Digital sunrise.
Oh, Team Machine! The world's got no end and got no beginning. Now I'm coughing up maracas and tambourines, looking over cliffs of eternity. shake your hands like they're full of disaster. shake your wings like they're painted with tar. shake your skin like it's sewn with insects. gnash your teeth like an exploding car.
and if your night unplugs its life blame it on the laser rain.
and if your life unplugs its eyes blame it on the laser rain.
because you can't blame the sun, it's been bought and sold to a day that's never dawning. and you can't blame the sky, it collapsed twleve times; now it's buried in a digital coffin. So you climb out to your windowsill as the drum machines laugh to themselves.
This home, this place it turns back on time and space we hope, you pray But today is still today Oh we ran ourselves ragged All these broken backs, tragic we try, you fail
Another Mark you left in Hell this cut, will run But the guilt has just begun Oh we ran ourselves ragged All these broken backs, tragic
all these words conciet (Oh!) all these wasted seeds (Oh!) dont let it go we're taking back control (Oh!) The future needs (Oh!) all these wasted seeds (Oh!) dont let it go We're taking back control
This hole you tore Left blood on every door We hope, you find Tragedy will change your mind Oh we ran ourselves ragged All these broken backs, tragic
The future bleeds (Oh!) all these wasted seeds (Oh!) dont let it go we're taking back control The future needs (Oh!) all these wasted seeds (Oh!) dont let it go We're taking back control
Taking back control!
(Oh!)The future bleeds! (Oh!)all these wasted seeds! (Oh!)don't let it go! We're taking back control!
The future needs!(Oh!) all these wasted seeds!(Oh!) don't let it go! We're taking back control.

Its gone away, Its gone away Its gone for good And the spirits shouting Camellia A primitive child of brilliant light Her magnet of wisdom is pulling Pulling Faster, the fabric of time

No escape, binding spirits No escape, trapped in time and space
into the valley of death Death By Stereo - Wasted Words
Follow sheep and move along Come on kids lets sing along Do you realize what I’m saying? Do you believe a word I sing? Here’s the proof just look around The reality surrounds me And I can see it in your eyes I can see you’re full of, full of lies
All these wasted words I spill my guts for you We lay it all on the line We do it night after night Ideas go unheard With every breath I spew We lay it all on the line We do it night after night
We lay it all We lay it all
With every word it makes me sick I hope they hit you like a ton of bricks And the reality surrounds you Open up your eyes Can’t you see the lies? Religion, the hatred, the money they’re making Take your life back Then you’ll fight back When you see the wrong Then you’ll be the song.
We lay it all on the line We do it night after night
they're only chasing safety Underoath - It's Dangerous Business Walking Out Your Front Door
I've been up at this all night long I've been drowning in my sleep I've prayed for your safe place And its time for us to leave
Time is running, its running on empty and the gas is running out I've decided that tonight is the night That I let love aside Full speed ahead this seems to be the place I've seen this once before Planned perfection sought in my dreams Hoping this would take you home
My knuckles have turned to white There's no turning back tonight Kiss me one last time
Around this turn where the cross will cast your shadow The people will all gather To remember such a day Where the flames grew as high as trees And the world stopped It stopped for you and me
My knuckles have turned to white There's no turning back tonight Kiss me one last time (Shut your eyes) My knuckles have turned to white There's no turning back tonight (So hold on tight) Kiss me one last time (Shut your...)
I will now bring new meaning to the word alone Endless nights of dreaming of life And the days we should have spent here
Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep
Glass shatters and comes to a halt I thought we'd be there by now I thought it would be so much quicker than this
Pain has never been so brilliant I made sure you were buckled in Now you can walk hand in hand Hand in hand with Him
My knuckles have turned to white There's no turning back tonight Kiss me one last time (Shut your eyes) My knuckles have turned to white There's no turning back tonight (So hold on tight) Kiss me one last time (Shut your...)
