Clock how long it takes. Block out words they make
Lock what's left of you. What are you gonna do?
Turn from all the glares. Burn all that you care
Find what's wrong with you. What is there left to do?
No reason to feel betrayed. Reality is forced to be this way
Throw it down the drain. Flow with all the pain.
But show no signs of haze to the ones who mock your ways
Viewing the world through the wicked eye
Viewing the world through the wicked eye
You were overthrown. Do it all alone.
Who follows along with such a freakish song
Stripped of memories, they ripped your fantasies
None of it belongs. Where did it all go wrong
Living in a world that doesn't exist, a zone of fiction you continue to persist
Throw it down the drain. Flow with all the pain.
But show no signs of haze to the ones who mock your ways
Viewing the world through the wicked eye
Viewing the world through the wicked eye
Find the feelings you've been sealing
Go and turn the page, this time things are gonna change
Viewing the world through the wicked eye
Viewing the world through the wicked eye
Stare into the light. Swear it feels right
Let it all unload. Honesty must explode
You keep it all in tight. Tears fall in the night
Feet firm in the sand, remember your guardian's hand

Where I Belong

Years trapped inside with this feeling I just can't hide
as time slips away i wonder if there's a better way
a better way, cause time slips away everyday
I need a change of place where i can show my face
walk me out the door cause i want something more
something more, something more, I want something more
It's time to turn this around. Start living the life that I've found
I was lost for so long but now I know where I belong
I take off and fly soaring through the sky
I've been set free and the world is calling me
calling me, i am free the world is calling me
It's time to turn this around. Start living the life that I've found
I was lost for so long but now I know where I belong
It's time to turn this around. Start living the life that I've found
I was lost for so long but now I know where I belong

Here in this moment, I feel my heart sinking now. Is it time to go?
Waking up to find it's not what we had in mind, so here we go.
Cause we were living in a city under siege on the brink of catastrophe,
but we'll make it out you'll see
Into the unknown, that's where we'll go
Down this lonely road, we'll fight through the storms
And we'll find home
There's something that's missing
but we're not gonna wait here wishing
for better things to come
Cause we were living in a city under siege on the brink of catastrophe,
but we'll make it out you'll see
Into the unknown, that's where we'll go
Down this lonely road, we'll fight through the storms
And we'll find home

Breaking news from an anonymous source
Hell on earth is taking its course
on you and I, the end is nigh,
we're not gonna live to see this pass by
All the cities in panic and fear
cries for help is all that I hear
It's hard to bare, I'm pulling my hair
entering a state that's all too rare
I don't wanna be a bastard but this just feels like a bio hazard
separation's approaching faster, head into a natural disaster
I don't wanna be a bastard but this just feels like a bio hazard
separation's approaching faster, head into a natural disaster
Just this in, there's some new information
let's turn to Liam at his current location..thank you, Liam
We're not done yet, there's so much more
this force of nature has only reached its core
fighting blockades with no intent to fade
now's the time to be afraid
I don't wanna be a bastard but this just feels like a bio hazard
separation's approaching faster, head into a natural disaster
I don't wanna be a bastard but this just feels like a bio hazard
separation's approaching faster, head into a natural disaster
We'll return after these messages...and we're back!
Matt: "Hey Bailey, how many more people dead?"
Bailey: "..uh...six"
Matt: "alright I'm gonna increase that a little"
Bailey: "yeah go for it!"
Six hundred thousand more people are dead
a gruesome sight, the whole world's gone red.
out of the light, and into the night
too bad there's no time to make it alright
I don't wanna be a bastard but this just feels like a bio hazard
separation's approaching faster, head into a natural disaster
I don't wanna be a bastard but this just feels like a bio hazard
separation's approaching faster, head into a natural disaster

Mechanical Actions

A mechanical brain makes it hard to find
the one to call remarkable, the one of a kind
An encyclopedia of knowledge build into the mind
but there's something much greater missing inside
Can't you see the void in your programming?
Yes a lack of spark in a digital heart
can disorganize the program and break one apart
a lack of fire coursing through your wires
wait too long your chance will expire
Can't you see the hole within your coding?
Another day to note, Another note to file
Programmed to block out the world
can this be considered lifestyle?
'Cause can a robot feel love? Can a robot feel passion?
how can one find love in life with such mechanical actions
Yeah! woo! Mechanical Actions
A cold metal body held together by organics
an inside like a human but a shell of mechanics
a never ending search for a compatible mate
a mate to stand beside you til expiry date.
Another day to note, Another note to file
Programmed to block out the world
can this be considered lifestyle?
'Cause can a robot feel love? Can a robot feel passion?
how can one find love in life with such mechanical actions
Yeah! woo! Mechanical Actions
Mechanical
Mechanical
Mechanical
Mechanical Actions!
