I hear an SOS
\nLast chance to open up your eye
\nA loud and clear distress
\nThe masses laughing ask me why<\/p>\n
It’s time to make it right
\nIt’s time to stand up and come clean
\nA chance to take the fight
\nOr are you happy with this scene?
\n(Come on)<\/p>\n
The lights go out on tainted sky
\nAn SOS is passing by
\nThe echos are what used to be
\nThe sound and shape, it’s all they see
\nIt’s all they see<\/p>\n
There is an endless strife
\nThey don’t believe it when they’re wrong
\nA sharp and pointing knife
\nBut there’s no stopping when we’re strong<\/p>\n
The lights go out on tainted sky
\nAn SOS is passing by
\nThe echos are what used to be
\nThe sound and shape is all they see<\/p>\n
The lights go out on tainted sky
\nAn SOS is passing by
\nThe echos are what used to be
\nThe sound and shape, it’s all they see<\/p>\n
I don’t know what I want
\nI don’t know what I see
\nThe society is slowly eating me
\nI don’t know what to do
\nI don’t wanna agree, damn you
\nYou’re really killing me<\/p>\n
I don’t know what I want
\nI don’t know what I see
\nThe society is slowly eating me
\nI don’t know what to do
\nI don’t wanna agree, damn you
\nYou’re really killing me<\/p>\n
The lights go out on tainted sky
\nAn SOS is passing by
\nThe echos are what used to be
\nThe sound and shape, it’s all they see
\nIt’s all they see
\n(Let’s go)<\/p>\n
It stood and got flyin’ in the air
\nWell, most of us with our dreams that strayed
\nMe, I was just heading anywhere
\nOh, I’d escape on a perilous game
\nLeave it all behind
\nFor yesterday<\/p>\n
Some of us didn’t make it through
\nSome were beat by a mental stress
\nI had my brothers to look up to
\nI was the fortunate one, I guess
\nAnd it’s all gone now
\nFor yesterday
\nYes, it’s all gone now
\nFor yesterday<\/p>\n
To all of you who aren’t past your prime
\nTo all of you in the dirt and grime
\nTo all of you who got lost and tired
\nFor yesterday<\/p>\n
Life’s journey’s long like a marathon
\nIf it’s gonna stay you and me
\nTwenty-four years of naggin’ on
\nDon’t want our love to be a fading memory
\nLost and gone
\nFor yesterday<\/p>\n
To all of you who aren’t past your prime
\nTo all of you in the dirt and grime
\nTo all of you who got lost and tired
\nFor yesterday
\nFor yesterday<\/p>\n
To all of you who aren’t past your prime
\nTo all of you in the dirt and grime
\nTo all of you who never had a time
\nTo all of you who got stuck and cried
\nTo all of you who got lost and tired
\nFor yesterday
\nFor yesterday<\/p>\n
There’s a king upon the throne
\nHe’s the king there all alone
\nHe seems troubled and real sad
\nJust when thought that he was glad
\nTo be the ruler of the earth
\nCould it be, it wasn’t worth
\nMore than nothing?<\/p>\n
From the day that he was born
\nIn his side there was a thorn
\nHe just couldn’t find the key
\nTo be happy and be free
\nHe felt forced to wear the crown
\nSlowly it will drag him down
\nInto nothing<\/p>\n
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
\nEverything just perfect once you reach the sky
\nPop another pill, don’t wanna leave your dream
\nForget about the days of when you swam upstream
\nAnd don’t you care too much ’bout you feel inside
\nIt is probably nothing<\/p>\n
I never told you ’bout my dream
\nHow I saw us as a team
\nWe would free the universe
\nWith a chorus and a verse
\nWe were gonna make a change
\nBut like how every dream is strange
\nIt’s also nothing<\/p>\n
What was goin’ through your mind
\nWhat kind of truth did you find
\nWhat did you see from the top
\nThat would finally make you stop
\nDid it give peace to your soul
\nLike you reached your final goal
\nOr just nothing?<\/p>\n
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
\nEverything just perfect once you reach the sky
\nPop another pill, don’t wanna leave your dream
\nForget about the days of when you swam upstream
\nAnd don’t you care too much ’bout what you feel inside
\nIt is probably nothing<\/p>\n
On and on, on the road, never-ending
\nKeep a smile up, make sure you’re pretending
\nIt’s been a long while since you ate the pain<\/p>\n
On and on, you’re no fish in the water
\nBut you’re slowly on your way to the slaughter
\nBefore you know, everything’s too late<\/p>\n
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
\nEverything just perfect once you reach the sky
\nPop another pill, don’t wanna leave your dream
\nForget about the days of when you swam upstream
\nAnd as I hear your song play on the radio
\nA certain sadness in me always starts to grow
\nWill I ever understand the reason why
\nThe melodies make me both wanna smile and cry
\nAnd all the things you make me feel inside
\nAre anything but nothing<\/p>\n
We wake up lonely
\nAnd feeling small
\nWe’re not the only
\nTo see the writing on the wall
\nWe have our coffees
\nAnd dump our trash
\nLike kamikazes
\nWe’re heading for a crash<\/p>\n
There’s no going back
\nWe’re on a one way track
\nDon’t you know that sour days are here to stay?<\/p>\n
Some like it salty
\nSome like it sweeter
\nSome like it malty
\nWith some oats and a twist of wheat
\nSome say go plenty
\nSome want it dry
\nWe sure feel empty
\nWhen we fail after every try<\/p>\n
There’s no going back
\nWe’re on a one way track
\nDon’t you know that sour days are here to stay?
\nSo just give in
\nIf your patience’s wearing thin
\nAnd just accept that sour days are here to stay<\/p>\n
First time will almost taste like shampoo
\nSecond time will still be a bit weird
\nThird time it starting to grow on you
\nSoon you’ll check in as a volunteer
\nTo rep the sour days, yeah!<\/p>\n
No going back
\nWe’re on a one way track
\nDon’t you know that sour days are here to stay?
\nSo just give in
\nFor this is not the end
\nAnd just accept that sour days are here to stay<\/p>\n
There is no going back
\nDon’t you know that sour days are here to stay?
\nYeah<\/p>\n
They prophesied the end is near
\nStill we’re grateful summer’s here
\nEighteen percent are idiots
\nIs that positive or hideous?<\/p>\n
Got friends on every continent
\nThe future’s bright, I’m confident, yeah
\nYou see the world is questioning
\nAnd might ever canceled[?] everything<\/p>\n
Watch the mad man in the car
\nSee the drunk guy at the bar
\nBlame him for the planet’s decline
\nBut hey, that could be me or you
\nSomething that we both would do
\nAnd die when I was fast on a ride[?]<\/p>\n
She saw some gypsies on the tram
\nHow they will ride it up and down
\nAlthough it was subliminal
\nShe saw their life as criminal<\/p>\n
Well, it was me and some Belfast kids
\nFor what’s not doing God forbids, yeah
\nWe were heading to grandpa’s grave
\nAs I recall, I think we did it<\/p>\n
What a surprise, I’ve done a crime
\nMost this has been a waste of time
\nNever would have sent us to [?]
\nAnd there are two sides of the coin
\nTwo sides that will never join
\nEven though they both are same<\/p>\n
Like Yanny and Laurel
\nLike Yanny and Laurel
\nLike Yanny and Laurel
\nLike Yanny and Laurel<\/p>\n
What a surprise, I’ve done a crime
\nMost this has been a waste of time
\nNever would have sent us to [?]
\nAnd there are two sides of the coin
\nTwo sides that will never join
\nEven though they both are same<\/p>\n
Like Yanny and Laurel
\nWe see life differently
\nLike Yanny and Laurel
\nThe world’s got its symmetry
\nLike Yanny and Laurel
\nNo hard opinion on the world
\nLike Yanny and Laurel
\nBut the planet’s crushing now
\nLike Yanny and Laurel
\nLike Yanny and Laurel
\nLike Yanny and Laurel
\nLike Yanny and Laurel<\/p>\n
Well, I saw you in a bar
\nI was not on your radar
\nWell, I tried to catch your eyes
\nBut I was just some random guy<\/p>\n
Well, I asked you for a dance
\nYou said, “No, there is not a chance”
\nI didn’t know if my heart would mend
\nI saw you leaving with a friend<\/p>\n
All I want is to reach you
\nAnd show what I’m about
\nYou’re not someone to preach to
\nYou got most things figured out
\nAll I want is to reach you
\nBut still I’m left in doubt
\nIf you will accept me reaching out<\/p>\n
I almost lost my head
\nWas the second time we met
\nDo you remember me from that bar?
\nWhat do you think the chances are?<\/p>\n
You said, “I don’t mean to be cruel
\nOr to make you look like a fool
\nBut if it’s me you want to stalk
\nJust give it up and take a walk”<\/p>\n
All I want is to reach you
\nAnd show what I’m about
\nYou’re not someone to preach to
\nYou got most things figured out
\nAll I want is to reach you
\nBut still I’m left in doubt
\nIf you will accept me reaching out<\/p>\n
I’ve been turned down and left the bar
\nThe darkest moment from manic [?]
\nI try to make it day-by-day again
\nAs soon as I get back up, I’m gonna [?]
\nI’ll be reaching out<\/p>\n
‘Cause all I want is to reach you
\nAnd show what I’m about
\nYou’re not someone to preach to
\nYou got most things figured out
\nAll I want is to reach you
\nBut still I’m left in doubt
\nIf you will accept me reaching out
\nOr if you will leave me here in doubt
\nIf you will accept me reaching out<\/p>\n
“Do You Want War”<\/p>\n
Do you want, do you want, do you want war now
\nDo you want, do you want, do you want war
\nMake sure you know how to handle your own gun
\nDo you want, do you want, do you want war<\/p>\n
When you wake up, look at your iPhone
\nInstead of first sayin’ good morning to her
\nOnce again forgot about hormones
\nAs you turn up chest heart problems start to occur
\nYeah<\/p>\n
Do you want, do you want, do you want war now
\nDo you want, do you want, do you want war
\nThey say it’s a catalyst for change and progression
\nDo you want, do you want, do you want war<\/p>\n
You go to work to do what you’re best at
\n[?] by what you achieve
\nYour sugary talk and smiles always part of the combat
\nI’m sure you won’t be smiling when your customers leave<\/p>\n
Do you want, do you want, do you want war now
\nDo you want, do you want, do you want war
\nMake sure you know how to handle your own gun
\nSo do you want, do you want, do you want war<\/p>\n
Play with fire and you’re gonna get burned
\nWhat you throw in might just be returned
\n[?] I hit you like a boomerang in the head, yeah
\n[?] but still you talk too much
\nNo one will listen to your Double Dutch
\nOnce the battle’s over and you’re really dead<\/p>\n
And in the bar you tell the owner
\nThis beer could be good with a different yeast
\nSo drink it up, look over your shoulder
\n[?] it’s the end of the [?]<\/p>\n
Do you want, do you want, do you want war now
\nDo you want, do you want, do you want war
\nThey say it’s a catalyst for change and progression
\nSo do you want, do you want, do you want war<\/p>\n
We go to practice almost every day
\nAnd our conductor tells us how to play
\nYou blow the trumpet and I slap the bass
\nWe are a big ensemble called the human race<\/p>\n
Who would you find to blame if you would
\nLose your voice
\nWho will you point your finger at when
\nIt all sounds like noise<\/p>\n
Don’t say you’re innocent
\nJust because you know your harmony
\nYou’re not just an instrument
\nTo a conductor who has lost
\nEvery sense of melody<\/p>\n
At every show we always try our best
\nSo will the [?] follow the rest
\nPlease [?] if you have poutine
\nYour fingers will get greasy if you know what I mean<\/p>\n
Who will you find to blame if you would
\nLose your crowd
\nWho will you point your finger at if
\nIt all sounds too loud, yeah-yeah!<\/p>\n
Don’t say you’re innocent
\nJust because you’re not out of key
\nYou’re not just an instrument
\nTo a conductor who has lost
\nEvery sense of melody<\/p>\n
Whoooooooooa
\nWhoooooooooa
\nWhoooooooooa
\nWhoooooooooa<\/p>\n
Don’t say you’re innocent
\nJust because you know your harmony
\nYou’re not just an instrument
\nTo a conductor who has lost
\nEvery single melody<\/p>\n
Whoooooooooa
\nWhoooooooooa
\nI don’t think you’re innocent
\nWhoooooooooa
\nWhoooooooooa
\nDon’t say you’re innocent<\/p>\n
Don’t wanna ride on the carousel
\nDon’t wanna be part of your cartel
\nSo whatever you’ve got to sell
\nBe sure I won’t be payin’
\nAnd I don’t care about the president
\nIt doesn’t mean that I’m ignorant
\nI just think that it’s dissonant
\nEverything they’re sayin’<\/p>\n
It goes round and round, but it’s not for me
\nIf it brings me down, I let it be<\/p>\n
Life is strange, got the time to lose
\nAin’t got the time for the tragic news
\n‘Cause all it does is givin’ me the bruise
\nDon’t want it in my system
\n‘Cause I’m lookin’ for a brighter day
\nAnd I’m strong, gotta find a way
\nI don’t care what the people say
\nI’m much too old to listen<\/p>\n
Goes round and round, but it’s not for me
\nIf it brings me down, I let it be<\/p>\n
I let it be
\nI let it be
\nI let it be<\/p>\n
Yeah, I gotta do what I gotta do
\nAnd I presume you gotta do so too
\nI’m really sorry, I can’t wait for you
\nDidn’t mean to burst your bubble
\nI stay away from negativity
\nYou know I push for positivity
\nYou know it’s good for creativity
\nTo stay from trouble<\/p>\n
It goes round and round, but it’s not for me
\nIf it brings me down and it’s killin’ me
\nIt’s the same old song and it’s lame to see
\nCan’t stick around, so let it be<\/p>\n
I let it be
\nI let it be
\nI let it be
\nGo!<\/p>\n
Everyone cannot be your hero here
\n[?] starting the same old play
\nBut as times, they are changin’
\n[?] seems to the same<\/p>\n
I’ve never been shot, only plot and smear
\nIt’s obviously part of the game
\nYeah we’re all in a need of a
\n[?] away<\/p>\n
A planet of drama
\nFrom Nick Cage to Shakespeare
\nWe’re all pulling drama
\nFor as long as we’re here<\/p>\n
Could we ever handle these racist thoughts
\nHatred and shady regimes
\nI don’t think those are random ideas
\nThat came out of the blue<\/p>\n
If we know who’s calling all the shots
\nThe mastermind behind the schemes
\nThink we all should be takin’ a lesson
\nIn science or two<\/p>\n
A planet of drama
\nFrom Nick Cage to Shakespeare
\nWe’re all pulling drama
\nFor as long as we’re here<\/p>\n
No matter that we all want a…
\nA life without fear
\nA planet of drama
\nThat won’t disappear, yeah<\/p>\n
Like electrons I orbit all
\nAround the nucleus of this world
\nWell<\/p>\n
I’m just an atom looking for
\nHow to create a molecule<\/p>\n
It’s a planet of drama
\nFrom Nick Cage to Shakespeare
\nWe’re all pulling drama
\nFor as long as we’re here<\/p>\n
In the early days, when you lived in caves
\nYou hardly ever met a stranger, but if you did it could mean danger
\nYou chewed on your bones and you were throwin’ stones
\nAnd you used your club for hunting, you were a troglodyte<\/p>\n
You said this land was your land
\nAnd never will be their land
\nHow long will your aggression stand
\nIn a caveman’s land?<\/p>\n
Now that was long ago, but evolution’s slow
\nThough you got globalization and access to information
\nEven with an internet, you find a logic hard to get
\nWhen your mind’s set all Jurassic, you’re still a troglodyte<\/p>\n
And you say this land is your land
\nAnd never will be their land
\nHow long will your aggression stand
\nIn a caveman’s land?
\nYou say this land is your land
\nAnd never will be their land
\nWhat’s so hard to understand?
\nIt’s still a caveman’s land<\/p>\n
Wonder how it’s down there, in your hole
\nWhere it’s darkness all the time
\nBuilding up these images of ghosts outside
\nMust be scary to play that role
\nA tricky hill to climb
\nThat is gonna make you lose control
\nYeah, the demons of your soul
\nWill make you fall back into your hole
\nYeah<\/p>\n
Is it too complex, or can you tell what’s next?
\nAfter years and years of sinkin’, can you switch your way of thinking?
\nWill your kids be lame, or will they change the game?
\nWill they act a little wiser, and not be troglodytes<\/p>\n
And say this land is your land
\nAnd never just be my land
\nYeah, will they take a stand
\nAgainst the caveman’s land
\nAnd say this land is your land
\nAnd never just be my land
\nWho’ll get the upper hand
\nIn this caveman’s land<\/p>\n
Say this land is your land
\nNever will be their land
\nHow long will your aggression stand
\nIn a caveman’s land?
\nSay this land is your land
\nNever will be their land
\nWhat’s so hard to understand?
\nIt’s still a caveman’s land<\/p>\n
In the early days
\nIt was long ago, but evolution slowed
\nIs it too complex, or can you tell what’s next?
\nWill our kids be lame, or change the game?<\/p>\n
If it’s broken, I don’t fix it
\nI’ll buy a brand new one instead
\nWith wine and beer all mixed
\nTo keep the noise outside my head<\/p>\n
So carry on this wasteful mission
\nCarry on, keep havin’ fun
\nUntil the only solution saves us
\nI’ll close my eyes and carry on<\/p>\n
I’m not a chemist, doctor or technician
\nThough I wish I had those skills
\nBut I don’t have too much ambition
\nAs long as I can pay my bills<\/p>\n
So carry on this wasteful mission
\nCarry on, keep havin’ fun
\nCarry on with no traditions
\nUntil the mental solution saves us
\nI’ll close my eyes and carry on<\/p>\n
Carry on, carry on
\nCarry on, carry on<\/p>\n
Whoa, I hear the clock is tickin’
\nCould this be the last call?
\nMy cylinders are only clickin’
\nUnder the influence of alcohol<\/p>\n
Carry on, this wasteful mission
\nCarry on, keep havin’ fun
\nCarry on with no traditions
\nUntil the mental solution saves us
\nI’ll close my eyes and carry on<\/p>\n
Carry on, carry on
\nCarry on, carry on<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
