Track Name: Society
There's a new dance in town they're calling retribution
And there's a new song they're singing they call it revolution

Doesn't it seem like anger's all of the rage
Doesn't it seem like acting doesn't need a stage
Doesn't it seem like whining's why I get paid
Dying's a cliché

There's a new house for hopefuls
Some sort of institution
Still beat's the cell I'm in
They booked me for noise pollution

NOISE POLLUTION!

We're too blinded by our pride
To look for a solution
Trapped inside our minds
It's a slow but steady mass-execution

Doesn't it seem like anger's all of the rage
Doesn't it seem like acting doesn't need a stage
Doesn't it seem like whining's why I get paid
Dying's a cliché
Track Name: Level
You said come with me
It ain't so far
Just let go and fall

Why can't you see
That where we are isn't free

If you are free, why can't you leave?
15 steps to either side
Closer to the edge than to real life
And it feels like I'm falling
To get on to your level, to get on to your level

I want to go
But why should I have to fall to make you come too

If you are free, why can't you leave?
15 steps to either side
Closer to the edge than to real life
And it feels like I'm falling
To get on to your level, to get on to your level
Please give this a chance
Please just try this once
To get on to my level, to get on to my level
Track Name: The Last One
He's cocky with reason
And he's better than good
He walks around town and heads turn around
And he knows more than he should

His looks are stunning but his brain works the best
His mind is cunning when put to the test
And he breaks people's hearts like he breaks people's necks
Sudden and thorough and without disrespect

He's a lady-killer
He's a blood-spiller
He's a blockbuster thriller
And he's gotta go

Everyone tries to off him
But they always call of the hits
And everyone's his love indiscriminately
And I hate him to bits

He runs from his enemies in a sick sorta dance
Try to put him in prison nah you ain't got a chance
And all the girls want his romance
And all the boys want in his pants

chrous

Shoot down his plane as he flies overhead
Not satisfied until I'm seeing red
His head on a platter or him tied to my bed
Not gonna stop till he's finally dead

*repeated x3 with various changes in lyrics*
Track Name: Sun Song
I am the sun and I shine on the world
Don't try to reach me I'll only ever bring you pain
Don't try to teach me I'll always be the same
I'm not a child, I'm something wild, and I can never learn
I am the sun and I burn

Don't touch me baby, I'm burning up
I thought that maybe by now you'd understand
That I am not available, and I am not attainable
And I can never satisfy anyone's command

I am a star that you can never touch
Don't try to cage me, I only ever brought you warmth
Don't try to change me, I'll never take another form
I'm a constant thing, no human being, a structure that won't turn
I am the sun and I burn

*Chorus*

I am the sun and one day I'll burn out
Don't try to console me, I've known that the day would come
Don't try to control me, you can never harness the sun
And I'm the sun, a time bomb, darling I'm hoping you'll learn
That I am the sun and I burn
Track Name: Ketchup
Oh I thought you said you were done
I thought you said that last time it would be your last one
Oh I thought you said you were safe
But there's a man right behind you and he's pointing a gun

Now you don't want to fight
You want to go home and start playing it right
Girl, you're in over your head
If they see you they're instructed to shoot you on sight

Oh It's catching up to you
It's not all pulling punches like we used to do
Girl it's catching up to you it's not all pulling punches like we used to do

You were mind the last time do you remember
In december when our lives were awhirl
And then that day I had to say let's retire
But you conspired to con the whole world
And now surrounded and dumbfounded you come to me
But can['t you see you're doomed to go out with a bang
Look behind and you'll find a noose and it's use is to leave you there to hang

*chorus*

It's not all stacked decks that we used to use
It's not all faulty checks that somehow went through
It's not all small time crooks that we used to fool (maybe it's this line?? I'm not sure I change it sometimes)
It's not all bathroom fucks like we used to do

Girl it's not over yet but it's getting real close
They're breathing down your neck girl
*Chorus*
Track Name: Knock knock, Who's there?, Doctor, Doctor Who (Demo)
Always have a planet, but I never have a home
Never by myself, but I always work alone
I look in your dimension and I see you with myself
I look at my reflection and I've become someone else
I've never had a lover and I've never had a friend
Since I've seen the beginning and I've seen how it all ends

The life of a wanderer
The love of the betrayed
The compassion of a murderer
The silence that won't fade
And I tried to say goodbye
And I tried to get you back
But I left us both alone
To save the world under attack

Take her from my world and then you go and execute her
I can change the past but I'll never change the future
