Birds of Paradise

Back off, Back off
I'm drowning
In all your
Boring dreams
Working for the machine
I'm tearing at the seams
Fuck this place
I'm tired anyway
This is the home of the desperation
Where we waste our lives
No one knows who to blame for
For all their dirty lies
I will never end up like you
We're birds of may
Meant to display
We dance in rain
Until the world comes crashing down
We sing again
We're latching on to this cold world
As long we can
Fuck this place
I'm a bird of paradise
Wake up from the rumors
Swallow your medicine
This is your last chance
To fix this state were in
We're gonna dance again
We're birds of may
Meant to display
We dance in rain
Until the world comes crashing down
We sing again
We're latching on to this cold world
As long we can
Fuck this place
I'm a bird of paradise

Class of '94

Me and Marko went down to the river when he told me
Time to get mental, smash some trash cans, rampage down the school halls
Cut the breaks, don't think twice. I was so young, I said I'm down
Down a bottle of tequila, we're going down this road again
We got our shirts on backwards, fuck the disguise
We lean into the incline, no-one said stop
We got our shirts on backwards, roll the dice
In the end you, yousaid we were friends
You said we were friends
I don't remember that you ever called
Since when
You said we were friends
15 years laters those days feel long ago
And I'm no Cinderella I just kinda wish we didn't lose it
At the arcade, late at night, capture the flag 'til someone died
Memories all lost in time but, I don't know if you know
That I think about you
And the times we had
You said we were friends
I don't remember that you ever called
Since when
You said we were friends
Oh I don't remember that you ever called
Since when
You said we were friends
Oh, you said we were friends

Never Never

I never never
Never thought I'd leave you
I could always hear your mind
Lying there upon the ground
Calling me down every time
I tried so hard
I tried so hard
Stuck on a rollercoaster
Tryin to find out what side's up
To drunk, to know
Numbing all my life away
I tried so hard
I tried so hard
I tried so hard
I tried so hard
Always forever was you and I
Now you are just
A fading memory
We walked on rose petals
Torn to shreds
This is my last goodbye
To the monument of you
No more
We spin
A game no one could win
Where did it all go wrong
Don't know where I belong
We tried so hard
We tried so hard
We tried so hard
We fucking tried, right
Always forever was you and I
Now you are just
A fading memory
We walked on rose petals
Torn to shreds
This is my last goodbye
To the monument of you
Always forever was you and I
Now you are just
A fading memory
We walked on rose petals
Torn to shreds
This is my last goodbye
To the monument of you

Like Kings

We're trapped
In this comic tragedy
Faded background on tapestry
Burnt ashes gray lay all around
From the wreck we rise
And take back the throne
Lets pretend we live like kings
Magnificent solitaire I sit upon a throne
Like a roman emperor
Eat the weak, and watch the world burn
Forget the past and live like kings
We are not free, I kill my fears and walk away
Like a roman emperor
Eat the weak, and watch the world burn
Did you think I'd be a better man
When I'm in charge and I have full command
This system, I will disband
Just watch me now
Burn it all down
Lets pretend we live like kings
Magnificent solitaire I sit upon a throne
Like a roman emperor
Eat the weak, and watch the world burn
Forget the past and live like kings
We are not free, I kill my fears and walk away
Like a roman emperor
Eat the weak, and watch the world burn
Lets pretend we live like kings
Magnificent solitaire I sit upon a throne
Like a roman emperor
Eat the weak, and watch the world burn
Forget the past and live like kings
We are not free, I kill my fears and walk away
Like a roman emperor
Eat the weak, and watch the world burn

Speeding Through Lights

I'll shut the intercom off
I'll sail on my own
Lightyears away
From people at home
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
Lost in translation
Between shores
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
I can't see where
We're going wrong
All transmissions are lost
Floating in the dark
Lightyears away
From people at home
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
Lost in translation
Between shores
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
I can't see where
We're going wrong
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
Lost in translation
Between shores
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
I can't see where
We're going wrong
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
Lost in translation
Between shores
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
I can't see where
We're going wrong
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
Lost in translation
Between shores
We're all isolated
Fighting a war
I can't see where
We're going wrong
