Nobody Think

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

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

Where There's Smoke
03:52

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
