You open with the end is near No time to spare no fiscal year I've only ever seen you praying For something worth saving Just so you can make it kneel Here goes nothing Na na na na na na na na na na na Here goes nothing Na na na na na na na na na Showed up with a halo you borrowed The prince in you're pocket At least the cliff notes A thing for firm handshakes and Heads on stakes and Misattributed quotes Here goes nothing Na na na na na na na na na na na Here goes nothing Na na na na na na na na na Time out Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo No doubt There's a reason for this treason A plot that we're past believing Empty the house where hate resides The walls crumble with nothing inside The king was pardoned in the garden The blade was sharpened And handed to the scribe Here goes nothing Na na na na na na na na na na na Here goes nothing Na na na na na na na na na

You've got to pull yourself together That's not what I'm here for You've got to pull yourself together Can't use my love anymore Can't use my love anymore The game is rigged Please tell me that you've noticed The truth is The game was rigged From the start It's not that hard to see You've got to pull yourself together That's not what I'm here for You've got to pull yourself together Can't use my love anymore Can't use my love anymore And it makes no difference No difference to me The game is rigged Please tell me that you've noticed The truth is The game was rigged From the start It's not that hard to see

Waltz 04:00
She opens her mouth But the fear rushes in This isn't a movie No big speech to begin Sad little queen Of a sad little hill Assailed on all sides By her own free will Oh if we lose or if we win We will never be whole again They said just hold on now His years weren't enough So she holds on to everything Builds a wall of junk Up in her tower The battle rages below Trying out actors For the reality show Mirror as clear as memory With nothing on the other side What do we do now Lonely road needs no signs Oh if we lose or if we win We will never be whole again

Not There 02:51
Wake up climb into your skin And pretend to be human For their amusement Fake it till you break it Shape it till you hate it Take this mask See how long you can last More and more You get that feeling you're not there And less and less That this road once led anywhere You said god was dead So they brought you in as the chief suspect At least they were direct When they forced into your shoes Told you how you should really feel Till nothing felt real More and more You get that feeling you're not there And less and less That this road once led anywhere Don't you see it goes both ways now Don't you see it goes It goes it goes it goes it goes More and more You get that feeling you're not there And less and less That this road once led anywhere

I don't recall What sort of precocious shit I was drawing A mountain stream More likely something obscene When Casey stole My masterpience, starting making demands I lost control It's been twenty years now And I can't erase that picture Of my pencil Sticking through the palm of his hand What was it like Planet earth 1999 I don't have much insight Despite how I try I'm just a passerby What can I say I sold half of the souls our classroom saved I don't know why Guess I liked that look in your eyes I didn't know Till one or two thousand miles down the road I never know Till it's all been put away And called by a different name And the rows all Long ago have turned to go What was it like Planet earth 2009 I don't have much insight Despite how I try I'm just a passerby Roll out of bed Feeling like there's something you're about to forget No not a dream Just that feeling of doing nothing No nothing at all No second guess No holy quest No bills to pay No boss to hate The universe doesn't give a shit if you're late What was it to you Planet earth 2022 You thought maybe you knew Now you don't have a clue Just passing through

Who do you think you are Breaking bread with blood on your hands Half truths slipping through the bars Shaking hands with the shake-up man A flash in the pan Who do you think you are Playing dumb here they come no way out See to it that it seems too far Away to give a shit about A flash in the pan Who knew you could talk talk talk Your way out of your own twisted mind

Tell Me Why 03:19
Tell me why The town crier still tries Proclaims the place and time A call to action Just trying to get by Our main infraction Tell me who Is acting more obtuse The accuser the accused The congregation Acting too aloof The allegation You say I Didn't try Spent years just trying to keep up You say more Is what you're looking for But how much is enough Tell me when Does all the fighting end Nothing left to defend That still wants saving This wastleland we attend Yours for the taking Tell me how Is what you said profound You change the words around Call it a breakthrough Don't stay on my account I'm empty but I'll make do Tell me why Tell me who You say I Didn't try Spent years just trying to keep up You say more Is what you're looking for But how much is enough How much is enough

Get your futures now At a lower price Going once, going twice That's the dream The pyramid scheme You won't but you might The only gift I want to get is your mind The only place I want to be has no signs The only thing I want to buy is time Take your business where someone cares Come on down Get your discount crown That's the catch The holy quest You can't but you can try The only gift I want to get is your mind The only place I want to be has no signs The only thing I want to buy is time If I believe in anything It's made of wood or earth or bone So if the old man asks for me Tell him I'm already home The only gift I want to get is your mind The only place I want to be has no signs The only thing I want to buy is time

On the trail of the ancients now In search of better days And so the hate follows the plow There's something in the water Malice in the martyr A road that just gets in the way I know what they were hiding from I know what they were hiding from Almost there Denial it piles The trial goes on Almost there The miles beguile The child is gone With the edge of the dullest blade Hollowed out my mind And so the people went away The baskets still hold water The doctor deals in proverbs One way signs from another time Almost there The choir retires The tired go on Almost there The miles beguile The child is gone I know what they were hiding from The same thing we're hiding from

How Many 04:01
How many words before you're heard How much sun could a short ton breathe How many burns before you learn How many discounts before you're free Where did we get stuck In the weeds there's a seed That don't need to know What to do who is who And how to breakthrough How many burns before you learn How many goodbyes before you leave And how many tons before you're done How deep a hole before you're told there's no need How many crumbs before you've won How many speeches before you can do as you please Where did we get stuck In the weeds there's a seed That don't need to know What to do who is who And how to start new How many crumbs before you've won How many ghosts, how many machines How many days before you cave How much gold before a soul turns strange How many shakes before you wake How many dreams before you're deemed insane Yes and how many words before you're heard How much sun could a short ton breathe How many burns before you learn How many discounts before you're free Where did we get stuck In the weeds there's a seed That don't need to know What to do who is who And how to breakthrough How many burns before you learn How many goodbyes before you leave

From Here 03:42
Don't search out the sunshine anymore There ain't no days left to grind Don't ask for the time anymore Cause we've reached Cause we've reached the end of the line Can't find my way back Auld lang syne Can't find my way back From here I can see for miles But I just can't see why Don't try to change your mind anymore Just keep on killing mine Don't look for a sign anymore I don't think I don't think we'll ever arrive Can't find my way back Auld lang syne Can't find my way back From here I can see for miles But I just can't see why

This is the final boarding call These are the stories we tell Please proceed to suspend belief This is the last wishing well A great longing is upon us Come on now the way is clear Every winter is a promise Come on now the way is clear But night is falling Take a moment for atonement Those are the lands unceded Like a maple seed she descends These are the stories we need A great longing is upon us Come on now the way is clear Every winter is a promise Come on now the way is clear But night is falling Look there From the mud here growing The start of something Look see From the mud beginning Sure enough In the dusk The start of something
