1. LIGHTS OUT

Lights out Back to the disaster (x3)
(This is a wake-up)
Lights out


2. DEAD LIVING

I can't take it
It's just a paycheck
Making arrangements to burn it to the ground
I can't take it
When nothing's sacred
Making arrangements
To burn it to the ground
Beauty lies in the ignorant
With the sound of selling out to the innocent
I can't save us from the outside
I can't take in what I'm told
You can't stop it
It just started
Dead living on the radio
I can't save us from the outside
I can't take it
I won't cooperate
Making arrangements to bury it in the ground
I can't fake it, this station
Is going under and we'll bury it in the ground
I can't save us from the outside
I can't take in what I'm told
You can't stop it
It just started
Dead living on the radio
I can't save us from the outside
I can't take it it's just a paycheck
Making arrangements
I can't take it it's just a paycheck making arrangements
I can't take one more day off or I am done
I can't bend -this must end
Counting back from 3,2,1
I can't save us from the outside
I can't take in what I'm told
You can't stop it
It just started
Dead living on the radio
I can't save us from the outside
I can't save us
You can't take us,
No one gets out alive...
I can't save us
You can't take us,
No one gets out...


3. LOS ANGELES

I want a girl girl that won't talk back,
And a job job, that gives me slack
And a car car, that won't break down,
In the heat of Los Angeles
Wanna go go without a map
Far away away
I won't get trapped by the sound,
A town the sun beats down in the heat of Los Angeles
One more holiday
I will not celebrate
I'm almost desperate
Cause I'm down I'm down I'm so beat down
This city's killing me
I want I want I want everything
This City's killing me
The Heat of Los Angeles
I want love love
That wont hit back
Want sex sex, without a catch
Wanna face to trust to feel to lust
In the heat of Los Angeles
Wanna fuck fuck fuck this up
Gonna feel feel feel you up
Had enough, enough, enough's enough
In the heat of Los Angeles
This city's killing me
I want I want I want everything
This City's killing me
The Heat of Los Angeles
What has become of me
(I want I want I want I want everything)
This city's killing me
Come on, come on it's alive and breathing
Come on, come on come alive today
Come on, come on it's a heartless beating
The sun is burning down Los Angeles
I want a girl girl that won't talk back,
And a job job that gives me slack
And a car car that won't break down,
In the heat of Los Angeles
Come on, come on it's a alive and breathing
Come on, come on come alive today
Come on, come on it's a heartless beating
The Sun is burning down Los Angeles


4. DO IT ALONE

Hello, can I say
That there's something wrong
With this place
I've got time, just to waste
If you would be
My new escape
So then I say
Can't find a lover
Well there's no other way
Of pulling me under
Cause it's gotta be fate
If we're under the covers
It's all gonna be A-OK, A-OK
I don't want to do it alone
I'm beggin you
I don't wanna do it, do it,
Do this all...
Alone, we can dance
In your bedroom
With no romance
I got time, just to waste
If you would be
My new escape
So then you say
Won't be another
But you give it away
Cause you wanna discover
That it's gotta be fate
If we're under the covers
It's all gonna be A-OK, A-OK
I don't want to do it alone
I'm beggin you
I don't wanna do it alone
I'll tell you what
I don't wanna do it alone
I'm beggin you
I don't wanna do it, do it
Do this all...
1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 2, 1
I don't wanna do it alone
I'm beggin you
I'm beggin you
I'm beggin you
I don't want to do it alone
I'm beggin you
I don't wanna do it alone
I'll tell you what
I don't wanna do it alone
I'm beggin you
I don't wanna do it, do it
Do this all...
Alone, can I say
That there's something wrong
With this place
I've got time, just to waste
If you would be
My new escape
So then I say
Can't find a lover
Well there's no other way
Of pulling me under
Cause it's gotta be fate
If we're under the covers
It's all gonna be A-OK, A-OK
Don't wanna do it alone


5. EXPLODE

Somebody save me
I need a Jesus
Somebody save me
I know I know I know I know I know I know I know
It's gonna explode
It's gonna explode
It's gonna explode
Every time I turn it up I think I'm gonna pop
Sombody save me I'm
I lying in pieces
Somebody save me
Hello hello Hello hello Hello
The Radio is here to stay turn it up
And walk away the radio is hear to stay
Turn it off


6. OUT OF PHASE

I'm out of range and you're all radio
I want my entertainment
I'm out of phase and you're all stereo
I want my entertainment loud right now
You should've known the difference
I'm out of range and you're all digital
I want communication.
Break
There's so much useless noise than I can take
There's so much useless noise I can't break through
I'm out of range
But not invisible
Don't want my entertainment
Vacant like an empty statement
I wanna burn this station down right now
You should've kept your distance
I'm out of phase and you're all stereo
I've lost communication
Break
There's so much useless noise than I can take
The sounds are getting louder every day,
That I can't take
I'm out phase
We walk alone like broken lovers
Behind the bars and discotheques
Love is a product and sex is the currency
We all cheat if we can't win
Blood liquor and the holy bible paint a picture of a
Kinder gentler war
An art that seems to have no ending
One that leaves us standing at the gates with broken wings
While the heart scan reports access denied, access denied…
We have arrived.
Break
There's so much useless noise that I can take
The sounds are getting louder everyday
There's so much useless noise that I can't take.
Tortured by the airwaves. I feel
Vacant like an empty statement
You and I cannot escape this


7. MADE A MISTAKE

I, I can't get enough
This means way too much
I will never, I can never, I won't ever stop
Pushing me around
Open up the ground
Will you ever, can you ever, see
You made a mistake
Made a mistake
Did and should have left me dead
You should have left me dead
Crushed
Painful as it sounds
Motives tightly wound
Pull the covers, pull my covers, to uncover lust
Deadly when she frowns
Silent in the crowd
Will she ever can she ever see
I can hardly stand that you were mine
I can hardly stand that you were mine
I can hardly stand this
Try to understand it
Gave you all I had when you were mine
You made a mistake
Made a mistake
Did and should have left me dead
You should have left me dead
(Under your breath)
You made a mistake
Made a mistake
Did and should have left me dead
You should have left me dead
I could never trust another
I could never trust another


8. RIOT

What you wanted
Couldn't hold us down
What we needed
Turned it's back so out loud
We're telling your secrets
Out loud to the lovers and thieves
Out loud cause you'll never experience
This is the side of us nobody sees
Were making something beautiful
Starting a riot
We've got this under our control
Starting a fight
What you wanted
Couldn't hold us now
What we needed
All came crashing down down
With the lies and cover up's
Down down to the lovers and thieves
Down now Cause' you've never experienced
This is a side that I'll never believe in
Were making something beautiful
Starting a riot
We've got this under our control
Starting a fight
We're making something
They're taking nothing
We starting something beautiful
Start a riot


9. MAJORING IN MINORS

Watching your lips move together
Nothings making sense
Talk to me, Talk to me
I don't want to break this silence
with the taste of something violent
Come to me, come to me
I don't believe the lies,
Reading between the lines
I don't belong here any longer holding on this tight
Watching every move you make
I hope you slip
I hope this fades away
Fades away
I get closer with the silent treatment,
When it hurts to need it
When it's hard to leave it
Come to me, Come to me
I don't believe the lies,
Reading between the lines
I don't belong here any longer holding on this tight
I don't believe the lies,
This the last Goodbye-
I don't belong here any longer holding on this tight
I'm letting go…..
I'm letting go
I'm letting go
God only know it's getting harder everyday
I don't believe the lies,
Reading between the lines
I don't belong here any longer holding on this tight


10. SHAKING

I'm searching for a change of pace
Trying to put away all these names
Tell you how it all works out
I'm terrible on the phone
Better when it's us all alone
Tell you how it all works out
You're not the only one
I'm not your only fun
I like the sounds you make when were shaking
you like to lose control and I take it
I turn the music up so it drowns us out
I scatter when the morning comes
Shattered over what I've just done
Tell me if it all works out
You're not the only one
I'm not your only fun
I like the sounds you make when we're shaking
you like to lose control and I take it
I turn the music up so it drowns us out
I like the way you breathe when we're moving
Forward and back and forth without feeling
I turn the music up so it drowns us out
I like the sounds you make when we're shaking
you like to lose control and I take it
I turn the music up so it drowns us out
I like the way you breathe when we're moving
Forward and back and forth without feeling
I turn the music up so it drowns us out
I like the sounds you make-
You like to give and take-
I like the sounds you make you like to give
You got to give push it away-


11. PERFECT

Watching it burn to your finger tips,
everything stings a bit
Dangerous silence surrounds you
All of the ashtrays and magazines,
recurrent love themes
I'm captured by time zones that hurt you.
This could be perfect
This could be worth it
This could be perfect
If I wasn't worthless
Breathing in slowly
Hearts beating lonely
I'm damaged by habits that haunt you
All of the goodbyes,
all of the goodnights,
all of the nice tries
Left you in the cold
This could be perfect,
This could be worth it
This could be perfect
If I wasn't worthless
If I could be a part of your world
Leave this all behind
I would investigate a perfect life with you
If I could say it in another way
If words could make it right
I would investigate a perfect love with you
This could be perfect


12. HIATUS

The distance between the sheets
When chemicals compete
The friction of skin is deathly unbearable here
The basics of want and need
The coward's in you and me
There's no turning back
We walked into this
Don't confuse it
Love…Wasted on the young
Detonate and run
Never wanna own a heart that breaks alone
Bodies with no remorse
Clothing lines the floors
The rhythm of sin.is
Dancing slowly
Beating lonely
Love ….Wasted on the young
Detonate and run
Never wanna own a heart that breaks alone
Taken by it fast, sacred in the moment
I can feel your breath you couldn't save me
Taken by it fast, sacred in the moment
I predict the worst, you're gonna hate me
I could leave all of this behind.
I could leave all of it behind.
Love… Wasted on the young
Detonate and run
Never wanna own a heart that breaks alone
Taken by it fast, sacred in the moment
I can feel your breath you couldn't save me
Taken by it fast, sacred in the moment
I predict the worst, you're gonna hate me
You couldn't save me.
I can't live this way forever I cannot live this way forever.
