Let's investigate the consequence,
of a bitter sweet loss of sense,
a weapon in a war against ourselves
The setting sun is loading guns,
don't be afraid of mistakes,
emotions misplaced, to love or to hate
I don't now what to do,
we’re all lost and confused,
just trying to get through in this world
Always trying to prove that were worth what it takes,
but it takes a long time in the dirt to see grace,
when I'm trying to be real they tend to be fake,
when I'm risking it all with no time to waste
Fuck this rat race, I'm leaving this place,
it's time to blast off, destination space.
Chorus
With the sunset hung behind us and
the universe to blind us, from the moon we'll
watch the whole world explode
Moving free unguided, through the beautiful the silent,
with a light show from a passing UFO
Lost in glow of the unknown, please don't go
And I don't know how I got here, or how I'm getting home,
but right from day one I’ve been in this alone
With odds staked against, I’ve been drowning in stress,
they said "can you take more?",
I said, “give me what’s left”
An old man once told me, “Alley don't ever look back”,
keep your eyes on the prize, and give em hell till your death
This is a test just a frequency check for intelligent life,
now it’s time time to connect , it's an S.O.S, the data's been sent,
so now we just wait and hope for the best
Chorus
With the sunset hung behind us and the universe to blind us,
from the moon we'll watch the whole world explode

So far beyond my reach, it's cold,
but I know there’s one way to make it home
So far beyond what we think we know,
there’s a cold dark storm taking hold
So know, like I know, I'm awake, and know,
like you know, I'll keep you safe
And I know that you know what’s at stake
So know like ya know it's time to wake
Chorus
As I summon up my courage and I step out in the rain,
I see it clear,I hear my screaming soul, and everything is fucked up,
I can feel it in my veins, and I'm not sure how far its gonna go
So I'll summon up my courage and I'll step out in the rain,
embrace my crashing thunder, all its fury and its rage
Then I'll know just where I stand!
Then I'll know just where I stand!
Then I'll know just where I stand!
So far beyond, my reach I’ve crawled,
but I know there’s one way to make it home
And with nothing left to say, we'll have a big parade,
as we wave and watch our freedoms march away
As we wave and watch our freedoms march away!
As we waved and watched our freedoms march away
Chorus
So I summon up my courage and I step out in the rain, I see it clear,
I hear my screaming soul, and everything is fucked up,
I can feel it in my veins, and I'm not sure how far its gonna go
So I'll summon up my courage and I'll step out in the rain,
embrace my crashing thunder, all its fury and its rage
Then I'll know just where I stand!
Then I'll know just where I stand!
Then I'll know just where I stand!

Grace for the dead while we sing siren songs,
a truth has been told, to all that belong as you lied through
your eyes, till your eyes looked cold,
take this time to prepare as the system unfolds,
an infrared centerfold controls what you know,
receive what you want and let the rest go,
I'm forming through the circles, I'm spinning through the shape,
the rape of a mind as it tried to escape…
Chorus
So, drop me off in space,
and forget me, I'll scream to the skies
Just drop me off in space, and forget me,
and I don't know why
So, drop me off in space, and forget me,
I'll scream to the skies
Just drop me off in space, and forget me,
and I don't know why
And I don't know why I even cared at all
Oh I don't know why I even cared…
An image flashed before me, it was a picture of a girl,
and in her hands were flowers and in her eyes I see the world.
Those eyes they started flowing, rushing like a stream,
both of us were drowning so I hugged herjust to see if loneliness was
causing this, I might help make it stop, and if I tore apart my heart and gave
it all I’ve got, hoods up in the rain,as they ran we stopped to walk,
lost in every raindrop we were dancing with dangerous thoughts
Chorus
So, drop me off in space, and forget me, I'll scream to the skies
Just drop me off in space, and forget me, and I don't know why
So, drop me off in space, and forget me, I'll scream to the skies
Just drop me off in space, and forget me, and I don't know why
My music's not perfection, just a lesson in expression to your ears,
it never sounded so clear, and to fuck with all your politics,
top selling lists, Top 40 hits, here comes some real shit!
Chorus
So, drop me off in space, and forget me,
I'll scream to the skies
Just drop me off in space, and forget me,
and I don't know why
So, drop me off in space, and forget me,
I'll scream to the skies
Just drop me off in space, and forget me,
and I don't know why

Wasn’t much for school, wasn’t much for work,
wasn’t much for digging other people’s dirt,
worn-out jeans and a torn up shirt, LSD and a cocaine smirk, DMT,
shrooms and weed, lucid dreams of a war machine
on the rise and gaining speed is it the End of Days or World War Three?
We beg and plead upon our knees to stop this war and set em free,
soldiers dying oversees, you can feel the karma in the breeze
Chorus
I see devils and I see demons,
I’ve seen angels and they were screaming
I’ve seen God sleepin’ on the job
I’ve seen Satan trying to right his wrongs
I’ve seen devils and I’ve seen demons,
I’ve seen snakes trying to take your freedom
I’ve seen God sleepin’ on the job
I’ve seen Satan trying to right his wrongs
I’ve seen sinners, I’ve seen saints, I’ve seen the dawn and the death of faith,
I’ve seen legends fall from grace, replaced by a fake with a pretty face,
punk is dead and emo sucks,hip-hop’s gone and lost its touch,
selling your soul just isn’t enough this industry is so corrupt
It’s best to know the law before you go break it, you gotta know the system before
you can shake it, you gotta have a dream before you can chase it,
gotta tie up your laces before ya head to the races
Chorus
I see devils and I see demons,
I’ve seen angels and they were screaming
I’ve seen God sleepin’ on the job
I’ve seen Satan trying to right his wrongs
I’ve seen devils and I’ve seen demons,
I’ve seen snakes trying to take your freedom
I’ve seen God sleepin’ on the job
I’ve seen Satan trying to right his wrongs
And all we want is to make some noise
And all we want is to make some noise!
I say what I feel, hoping you feel what I say,
I say what I feel, nothing gets in my way
I’ve done all I can to cleanse my soul of all my sins,
all my faults and all my wars that raged
under my skin, I’ve come to terms with who I am and what I’m all about,
so if you’re trying to be the judge of me, you can shut our fuckin mouth!
Chorus
I see devils and I see demons,
I’ve seen angels and they were screaming
I’ve seen God sleepin’ on the job
I’ve seen Satan trying to right his wrongs
I’ve seen devils and I’ve seen demons,
I’ve seen snakes trying to take your freedom
I’ve seen God sleepin’ on the job
I’ve seen Satan trying to right his wrongs

was cool at one time now I’m cruel without cause,
but that goes without saying we rebel against law,
We rebel against all that we feel has gone wrong,
stand up for yourself and think thoughts from beyond.
Against, politicians and their superstitions,
their baking up lies in the gonorments kitchen,
their baking up pies full of lies for their victims,
who die in these wars for no reason it’s sickening.
You’ve got all these politicians putting signs on my lawn
but who wants the rights when the rights are all wrong
and who wants a soul when your soul is long gone,
and who’s their to fight when the weak are all sombre.
You’ve got mothers and daughters and brothers and sons
who’ve lost cousins and uncles and daddy’s and moms,
a world filled up on these bullets and these bombs,
just stop your fighting and just sing along.

I’m not asking for much I’m just asking for a little,
I’m not asking the universe to to bow at my command
I’m not begging anyone to go out on a limb,
I’m just saying it’d be nice to see some helping hands,
but will they understand?.
Don’t want to Lamborghini car don’t want a cashmere sweater,
don’t wann eat a hundred pills a day to keep myself together,
don’t wanna win a million dollars and move my ass up to the suburbs,
don’t wanna work dead end jobs and go in circles forever, but will they understand?.
That I’m not asking for much just a cabin near a river
where my windmill spins as my girlfriend paints the pictures,
and I’ll play guitar on the porch in the summer,
and we’ll hide away from the storms of the winters,
but will they understand?, this is my master plan.
And I don’t need a garage that holds five cars,
don’t need a private jet, don’t need a preacher telling me what god above expects,
don’t need a hundred credit cards to bury myself in debt,
just enough to fill our guts and cover most the rent, but will they understand?
That we don’t need a jerk in power who drips oil when he sweats,
don’t need to break top 40 or a list of platinum hits,
don’t need much more then what I’ve got to feel like a success
my girl my dog my drugs my cause and a pack of cigarettes.,
but will they understand, this is my master plan.

I'm too old of a kat to be fucked by these kittens,
all my ducks in a row but something is missing.
and we all will try, but only some will survive,
yes some will die , for lack of open eyes
I'm too old of a kat to be fucked by these kittens,
I see through your lies all the spin in your system.
and we all will try, but only some will survive,
yes some will die , for lack of open eyes
and when ya save your self and
know one else it shows, ya know
and when ya save your self and
know one else it shows, ya know

We eat sleep fuck and protect our necks from the stress of a world in a mess,
from the war in Iraq to the crack in the streets to the aids epidemic and corrupted police.
To the homeless the hopeless the sick and the poor the rich keep getting richer
while the poor just fight the wars, now somebody must see this to
Somebody must feel the way I do.
Just like a race car driver I'm going off the tracks, or a cool breeze blowing at your back,
I'm a two way ticket on a one way route I'm the rain and thunder that knocks the power out,
I'm a loaded gun I'm a hole in one, I'm a bursting star I'm a burning sun, I'm a saint to some but a devil to the rest,
so just show me the stage and cut me my check, cut me my check..
Hear the thunder in the distance and the trumpets of the gods,
the fires of revolutions got the rebels singing songs screaming
bring our soldiers home this is not where they belong.
We don’t wanna work your shitty jobs or fight elitist wars,
or eat the happy pills you sell that make us dumb and bored,
we’ve had it up to here and where not taken anymore,
the time will come soon when they’ll settle the score.
now somebody must see this toSomebody must feel the way I do.
Chorus
Guns and bombs, terrorists, corrupted governments killing
the innocent fuck the poor feed the rich, are you all in?
Our rock stars are pussy’s and hollywood’s lame,
top 40's bullshit and TV’s the same, are you all in?
are you all, are you all
are you all, just following!
are the all, are they all
are they all just following!
are we all, are we all
are we all just following!
Where all just Sunday drivers in a race to save our souls
barrelling down the freeway on the wrong side of the road.

Let’s take a trip, its and oddity, all the comedies of this world,
I’m seeing shades of you there coming through,
cosmic afternoons under a burning moon,
and I’m dumb for what I have become for every war I've won, so dumb,
yes I’m dumb for what I have become, for every song I've sung, so dumb.
Lets take a trip through outer space, just brace yourself for the wake ,
what I thought I knew has been ripped from view,now I’ve fallen
through I’ve been shown the truth, that were dumb for everything we’ve done,
for every war we’ve won, so dumb, yes I’m dumb for what I have become,
for every song I’ve sung, so dumb and all we need is to be set free,
now we’re spiralling the phoenix has risen, and all these clues have been
left in view now it’s up to you the choice has been given.
