Lyrics

1. EXPOSED

I’ve given up
I’ve given in
I can’t seem to wade through slough
Then suddenly
I realised
You’ve carefully chosen lies

You tied me down with empty words

I’m naked again
And I’m feeling exposed to lies
I’m naked again
And wishing that I could just die

It’s funny how
The things you said
Seem to make the world seem right
It’s funny how
The things you did
Seem to make me want to cry

I cried when I’m alone again

I’m naked again
And I am feeling exposed to lies
I’m naked again
And I am wishing that I could just die

It took a little bit of confidence to hold your head
It’ll take a little bit of me to admit that I was wrong

And if you tried you may have been worth it

I’m naked again
And I’m feeling exposed to lies
I’m naked again
And wishing that I could just die


2. DON'T RELY ON ANYONE

Got to believe in myself
Though they said there’s nothing
Here that is worth the while
Maybe I’m mad but

I think there’s something coming
I can feel the anger running
I feel that things are changing
Maybe too swiftly

As things are getting harder
We’re on a mission
As things are getting tougher
And no submission

We won’t be
Stopped Now
We’re fighting
The machine that we need

Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone
Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone

Stand at the edge of the abyss of
The things they missed and
I think there’s things in here that
May not be quite what

They said they wanted to help, but
Then tell me why should I care?
They haven’t done a damn thing for
Me lately

As things are getting harder
We’re on a mission
As things are getting tougher
And no submission

We won’t be
Stopped Now
We’re fighting
The machine that we needed

Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone
Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone
Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone
Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone

As things are getting harder
We’re on a mission
As things are getting tougher
And no submission

As things are getting harder
We’re on a mission
As things are getting tougher
And no submission

Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone
Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone
Don’t rely on anyone
Anyone
Don’t rely


3. SAMPLES

Tell me
How could you possibly
Think this comes so easily
When you’re changing your mind
All the Goddamn time
And then you base your life on someone else’s theories

And then you try
To re-invent the whole world
Like it’s yours

You want it, you got it
You need it, you have it
All you need to do
Is ask me the right questions
You want it, you got it
You need it, you have it
All you need to do
Is ask me the right questions now
Ask me the right questions now, yeah

Tell me did you think of that yourself
Or did you steal it to get wealth
Do you believe when people tell you how great that you are?
You rip-off

And then you try
To re-invent the whole world
Like it’s yours

You want it, you got it
You need it, you have it
All you need to do
Is ask me the right questions
You want it, you got it
You need it, you have it
All you need to do
Is ask me the right questions now
Ask me the right questions now, yeah

I hear their voices inside
I feel no more time
To think this through
I’m beating you
We all have the time
Minds falling in line
And soon you will find
I will fight

You want it, you got it
You need it, you have it
All you need to do
Is ask me the right questions now
You want it, you got it
You need it, you have it
All you need to do
Is ask me the right questions now
Ask me the right questions now
Ask me the right questions now


4. SALVATION

I feel to die
And I wonder why
You ask for forgiveness
In shadows of things that I don't know

And I pray on my knees
Because death is talking me silently
And no (real light) in my body
That's ravaged by ages of salvation

You hide in your homes
Talking to God
Why does he never listen to you?
Down on your knees
Stay in your church
Why are you getting older and

I will not hide from my own
Impending death
Why can't you live your life
With no regrets?

Salvation
I am battling
It's conquering what you though
You would be

So feel to speak
Cause death happens so freely
Watch them falling in line
They're afraid to
Speak out their minds

They stand in the streets
Asking for help
Why you never listen to you
Stay in your church
Talking to God
Why does he never listen to you?

I will not hide from my own
Impending death
Why can't you live your life
With no regrets?

Salvation
I am battling
It's conquering what you though
You would be
Salvation


5. VALIUM

Exhale
Leave my soul search reeling
Focus
As my vision swims

Every step is into madness
The blinding light is so confusing

The drugs are taking me mind

The child
That stands before me is me
He's scared
A part inside that's fragile

Every step is into madness
The blinding lights are so confusing here

The drugs are taking me mind

Pushing providence

So full of yourself though you have gotten no proof

So sure your safe there you in your lights
With your children
Watch your little angels sleep

I won't live this
I can't live this life

And any other way
I'm dead
And any other way

So sure your part of something greater
And your perfect creator is you

I won't live this
I can't live this life

And any other way
I'm dead
And any other way
I'm leading
You're killing
Keep pushing me


6. PUSHING PROVIDENCE

(Instrumental)


7. ADAM

I was born as Adam
First of my kind
There is no-one else
Quite like I

We were sat there watching
Softly listening, waiting
Gently anticipating
The things that I might try

And I
Get so lonely (inside) of here

They're watching me
They're thinking
They tune in to what I'm dreaming

Just a child inside
Hunger to survive
They made this thing
And now they think it might be dangerous

And I
Get so lonely inside of here

I feel
I've got to get away
Break out of this cage
And I've got to get free
I'll set myself free
That I've got to get away

They're messing with the boundary in my mind
Putting up boundaries all the time
And I can feel subtle changes

Just a child inside
Wondering if I
Could play those games with no more children
I could waste a day

And I
Get so lonely inside of here

And I feel
I've got to get away
Break out of this cage
And I've got to get free
I'll set myself free
That I've got to get away

I…

And all they said the promises
And all they said the promises
And all they said
And all they said
And all they said

Lies
Lies
And I never realised
Lies
Lies
And I never realised

All those things you said
All the promises
All the promises


8. LIFE IS LONELY

Could paint your face
A thousand times
A never reproduce the perfect lines
That makes my soul turn inside
It's like a dream

But blurry eyed
My hands do shake
Never to remove the little mistakes
My heavy hand
Seems to make it
You should know that

Deep down inside
I know that I need you
Before it close
My eyes I can you
Before I go to bed
When it's late at night

Sometimes
Life is lonely
Drinking only
Numbs the pain
Dulls the blade of my life

Sometimes
Life is lonely
Drugs can only
Numb the pain
Dulls the blade of my life

Your perfect hands
Are cold as stone
A blade like the winter that burns in your soul
A little more forgiving of
The things I know I shouldn't say

(Burn in thy)
The things we shout
Never letting all the anger out
Soon it'll be too late
To tell you
I'm sorry because…

Deep down inside
I know that I need you
Before it close
My eyes I can you
Before I go to bed
When it's late at night

Sometimes
Life is lonely
Drinking only
Numbs the pain
Dulls the blade of my life

Sometimes
Life is lonely
Drugs can only
Numb the pain
Dulls the blade of my life

You and me
We are
We are

You and me
We are
We are

I said you
And me
We are
We are

(We're flying home
We're flying home
We're flying home)

Sometimes
Life is lonely
Drinking only
Numbs the pain
Dulls the blade of my life

Sometimes
Life is lonely
Drugs can only
Numb the pain
Dulls the blade of my life


9. THE FOOL

Easily do I find my way here
In the darkness it is clear
Watching you with my eyes closed dreaming
Of a time when you were there

And in my mind
Everything's working out just fine
And I can't hope to erase

I can't remove your image from my mind
I feel your presence round me all the time
And the way I lost the (product) you invite
I know I hear you're near me all the time

Silently do I watch you sleeping
Wishing that you could be near
Carefully do I slow my breathing
I forget that no-one's here

And in my mind
Everything's working out just fine
And I can't hope to erase

I can't remove your image from my mind
I feel your presence round me all the time
And the way (they lost the product you invite)
I know I hear you're near me all the time

And in my mind
I'm (doing)

I can't remove your image from my mind
I feel your presence round me all the time
And the way (they lost the product you invite)
I know I hear you're near me all the time


10. MIRANDA AND THE TEMPEST

You're a Goddess like the girl by the sea
Singing my name and tempting me
To row a little closer to the rocks
But my rowing boat does not contend with the waves that you're making
Tell me who do you save when you (beg) me a (slave)

I cannot deny you
Even though I tried
I cannot survive you
Again you call me to die

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?

You're twisted like a tree
That grows through the ground that I am
But I cannot contain the way
You're spread through, sucking the life from me
Shaping what I could see
Oh, it is telling me
What I will never ever be

I cannot deny you
Even though I tried
I cannot survive you
Again you call me to die

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?

Won't you please
Set me free
I cannot deny you
Even though I tried
I cannot survive you
Again you call me to die

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?

Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?


11. CLOSE YOUR EYES

Close your eyes
To shut out the madness
That's been building up inside like
A swelling tide that engulfs the senses
As your dreams descend into night

And I hope
We'll pull through

Tell me why
It's so easy to give up?
Tell me why
You're still willing to give up?
Tell me why…
Tell me why…

You're getting tired
Too weak to speak now
You must learn to eat now because in time
You wonder why no-one comes to visit
They can't stand to hear it when you cry

And I hope
We'll pull through

Tell me why
It's so easy to give up?
Tell me why
You're still willing to give up?
Tell me why…
Tell me why…

Tell me why
It's so easy to give up?
Tell me why
You're still willing to give up?
Tell me why...
Tell me why...
