You can run and you can hide but you won't get ahead Cuz if you're a coward, you're already dead So take a chance, stand up, treat life like a dare if you're following the crowd they won't take you anywhere - stand out! Somebody lied to me Somebody died for me Someone to try me Some of the time Somebody lied to me Somebody died for me Someone to try me Some other time You will have a hell of a time trying to get out alive You will spill the demon seed inside a blushing bride You will eat the apple, you will realize the lies And the mind games they play With the people and their lives You will seek the opposite perspective every time You will speak, speak your peace Speak your heart and mind You won't believe everything the papers say Or some ancient scriptures that belong to yesterday Somebody lied to me Somebody died for me Someone to try me Some of the time Somebody lied to me Somebody died for me Someone to try me Some other time Expansion is a state of mind You can close yourself up, you can make yourself blind Or you can throw all that shit away And start living your life like it's a new day Expand your heart and expand your mind Expand your vision beyond confines Don't let anybody close you up inside Your mind is is bigger than the sky! Somebody lied to me Somebody died for me Someone to try me Some of the time Somebody lied to me Somebody died for me Someone to try me Some other time

Away In A Cave 03:05
lyrics

hanging around like a vampire bat, upside down I twist in the wind, my feelings turned inside out away in a cave, nobody comes around lost in the dark, the emptiness surrounds deep in the underground feels like home to me every time I make a sound it echoes all around don't get lost if you come to visit me cuz down in the ground, it's very hard to see away in a cave, beneath everything miles away, no one can hear you sing deep in the underground feels like home to me every time I make a sound it echoes all around hanging around like a stalagmite, upside down the reject creatures keep me company under ground the spiders might crawl all across my wall the blind white fish, the albino mice and all deep in the underground feels like home to me every time I make a sound it echoes all around

Extra Baggage, it does nothing but weigh you down Extra baggage, wrap your head around that Tie your thoughts in a sack And leave 'em there on the ground There's a suitcase of memories I've kept around for years Feel the joy of letting go that bag of useless fears and... Extra Baggage, it does nothing but weigh you down Extra baggage, wrap your head around that Tie your thoughts in a sack And leave 'em there on the ground There's a secret footlocker where I keep my regrets I'll dig a hole and dig it deep and lay that shit to rest and all my... Extra Baggage, it does nothing but weigh you down Extra Baggage, it does nothing but weigh you down Extra baggage, wrap your head around that Tie your thoughts in a sack And leave 'em there on the ground There's an old sack in the back of my mind Where you'll find all kinds of doubt It's about time I leave it behind And make room for something else no more... Extra Baggage, it does nothing but weigh you down Extra baggage, wrap your head around that Tie your thoughts in a sack And leave 'em there on the ground ooh ahh...

Acrobats 03:00
lyrics

ACROBATS Acrobats reverse the order Acrobats turn it inside out Acrobats are hanging upside down Switch positions with magicians Politicians lose their clout Change will never come If you do what you’ve always done Turn it around, flip it upside down Acrobats, twisting, falling New ideas start to grow Acrobats contort the status quo Other aspects manifested Unexpected reversal Things will never change If you do everything the same Turn it around, flip it upside down Acrobats, entertainers Change the destiny you seek Acrobats will turn the strong to meek Switch positions of tradition We won’t turn the other cheek Watch out all you clowns When the circus comes to town Turn it around, flip it upside down

Put down that phone and talk to me Can't you see that I'm more fun to speak to? Don't You wanna make a connection? Put down your phone and talk to me ROCK! Put down that phone and look at me Can't you see my face is more important? Look me in the eyes, make a connection Put down that phone and look at me ROCK! Put down that phone and watch the road Don't you wanna know where you're going? So grab the wheel and pay attention Put down that phone and watch the road WATCH OUT!

All Coming Down 03:47
lyrics

How many times do you tell yourself somethings gonna come Does it mater anymore? Where will you find yourself in final times, When the war has come? Do you know where the line is drawn? Super Sunday never ever comes around Everybody wishes that they’d shaken off the shroud I’m sorry Lucifer if I’m too loud but it’s all coming down to the end Stand in the line of fire and feel yourself disintigrate It doesn’t matter anymore Your skinsuit will decay, and that’s our fate, that death awaits It stands before us like a door Superman is just too old to save the day He wouldn’t help you cuz you’re evil anyway I’m sorry Jesus, there’s no time to pray Cuz it’s all coming down to the end Walk through the valley, the shadows creep But they don’t make a sound But your thoughts are pounding loud Darkness surrounds you, but there’s a light aglow afar You set out to find the star Superhumans can have primates as their pets Offspring from the aliens take humans to the vet That hound dog hasn’t caught that rabbit yet And it’s all coming down to the end Super Sunday never ever comes around Everybody wishes that they’d shaken off the shroud I’m sorry Lucifer if I’m too loud but it’s all coming down to the end It’s all coming down to the end…
