24 Panels Of Light
For the heavy hearted, there's no new signs
For the undecided, the 'borderlines'
The biggest bummer, the twisted plot
Would someone tell me, how long i've got
Don't say that nothing to lose is the same as nothing to live for
There's nothing more we can do, am i so greedy to want more?
If you can do everything right, you can make it to the land of the living
And the 24 panels of light
The road is rocky, the toll's unkind
It's crazy-paving, for the colourblind
I never dreamed this, would be so hard
I've played my latest, denial card
Don't say that nothing to lose is the same as nothing to live for
There's nothing more we can do, am i so greedy to want more?
If you can do everything right, you can make it to the land of the living
And the 24 panels of light
And when you can't get more of the same. It's like a lightning bolt to the brain
Have you already had your happiest day?
If you blink you've missed it, you've had your time
It's never easy to cross that line
So count your blessings, subtract your sins
No harps, no bugle, no violins
Seasons greetings, we wish you well
We know you're having the night from hell
It'll soon be over, relief will come
So tell me gently, i'll play it numb
You'll do well to ignore, the question mark on the clipboard
Born with nothing to lose, die with nothing to live for
For one or two hours a night, you can make it to the land of the living
And the 24 panels of light
Don't say that nothing to lose is the same as nothing to live for
There's nothing more we can do, am i so greedy to want more?
If you can do everything right, you can make it to the land of the living
And the 24 panels of light
And when you can't get more of the same. It's like a lightning bolt to the brain
Have you already had your happiest day?

Silence Is

Silence Is
Silence is the room next door to sorrow
Don't save your words of comfort for tomorrow
At least go talk it over with your shadow
Weary of the city life
But the penny never drops
Everybody has their say
But the anger never stops
My old friend. We can't pretend...
That silence is the healing of the sorrow
I can't save my words of comfort for tomorrow
At least go talk it over with your shadow
Haven't got the juice today
To go the extra mile
Though through it all you find a way
To make the bus queue smile
My old friend. I can't pretend
Cos I hurt bad when you hurt bad
Silence is the room next door to sorrow
Don't save your words of comfort for tomorrow
At least go talk it over with your shadow
Silence is the room next door to sorrow
Silence is the room next door to sorrow
Silence is the room next door to sorrow

An Easier Life

An Easier Life
Unwrap the memories, face up to the chill
Daily reminders that torture you still
Maybe a move away would do you some good
If you can change it up then maybe you should
Widening your smile. With every passing mile
You'll be breathing in the brand new air
Of an easier life
Feeling so dizzy at the pace of it all
Sleep is a stranger and you're hitting the wall
Forever waiting, forever's too long
Your ears are bleeding so you're changing the song
Blocking out the bile. With every passing mile
You'll be breathing in the brand new air
Of an easier life
Out and about, thinking aloud, talking it out
Here in the now, worried about, living without,
Calling them out, riddled with doubt, figure it out.
Over and out..
There's still some happiness out there to be found
Hope someone finds it and they share it around
I'm only looking for an easier life
What's wrong with looking for an easier life?

Dig
Blink and you'll miss us as
We sink into the great unknown
Scratching out a living from a job that follows us home
We gotta dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig deeper today
Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, keep the hunger at bay
He's always in touching distance of the money tree
I can tell that he climbs on a different ladder from me
They're gonna spin, spin, spin, spin, spin it the usual way
Spin, spin, spin, spin, spin, keep the anger at bay
They're gonna win, win, win, win, win in the usual way
Always accidental, nothing planned
All that's real is coming in to land
It'll soon be over..
The word is out and they'll soon be turning up the heat
(they're turnin' it up now, they're turnin' it up now)
But when it all dies down he'll still be living on easy street
(he's livin' it up now, he's livin' it up)
They're gonna dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig him out of a hole
When he spins, spins, spins, spins, spins, spins out of control
No one ever gets to see what's blackened his soul
No one ever gets to see what's blackened his soul
