Nobody Think 03:47
There is a self destruct button inside every one of us Everybody has a blind spot, a secret, a soft underbelly I take no pleasure in this I take no pleasure in this I take no pleasure in this I take No sudden movements Hands where I can see them Tell me what is on your mind? Memories you don't recognize See memories you don't Memories you don't recognize See memories you don't The monster is at the gate Hoping we take the bait We're at the brink Nobody think There is a self respect button inside every one of us Everybody has a value, a trade price, a moral override We take great pleasure in this We take great pleasure in this We take great pleasure in this We take great Care of our users Protect those human futures Act like we're not really here Close your eyes and think out loud Please close your eyes and think out loud Please close your eyes and think out loud The monster is at the gate Hoping we take the bait We're at the brink Nobody think

Paranoia 04:35
Once you get with my friends They’ll show you all you can be Close ups and cameras No time for memories give me your moments your poster up on my door I want you tumbling Infinite scroll Paranoia How can I make you stay Paranoia Which face to wear today Paranoia How can I make you stay I’m paranoid without you I’d fade away Now that you’re in my head I’m sure you’ll see things my way Be happy swimming in A sea of perfect days You got your limelight I got my shining star Dance for me every night More gimme more gimme more Paranoia How can I make you stay Paranoia Which face to wear today Paranoia How can I make you stay I’m paranoid without you I’d fade away

They’re selling their house for a cage Rumours of cash flow and glory days Left all their worries behind Pushed in a pile for some one else to find Clambering steps of the herd Finding a mirror in every word “I’ll be the hero” they say When they pick the judge for judgement day And our side Bends a knee To anyone who can disagree Where there’s smoke There is surely fire Get to the heart of it Or it’ll be our funeral pyre Where there’s hope There is surely fire Wiping the ash from our eyes Liberty bells ring defeat Knowing we pushed them away We were the jurors who never took a seat The bruises are red and they’re blue The gavel creeps up its sleeve Why do we take this abuse Fuck this trickle down democracy As flames rise We burst seams Make dust of those who put us on teams Where there’s smoke There is surely fire Get to the heart of it Or it’ll be our funeral pyre Where there’s hope There is surely fire
