lies the kind I recognize no different from the truth with nothing left to prove 'cause I've been searching around for something that just can't be found was it me all along? was that where I went wrong? just needed something to live for someone to love someone to tell me there's something above im sick of having the answers tired of thinking I'm right I just want something to rely on and a reason to fight just a reason to believe that I don't have a reason to leave

. .. ... where are the words i want to say? just like you and i they're changing everyday its hard to capture in a phrase every time i try it seems to slip away a pieced-together sentiment so unrefined effortless distraction from what's left behind through requiems and lullabies first hello's and hard goodbyes can I say "i love you" any more than it implies? if not then let the silence summarize ... .. .

She sings We feel all sorts of things Don't feel Just to hear it's so surreal And I know it's not the rhythm Just to hear it's so sublime And I know it's not the rhythm No, not this time. Say what you mean Don't become the in-between With or without You know it's nothing to think about And I know it's not the rhythm Just to hear it's so sublime And I know it's not the rhythm No, not this time. Stop to breathe Don't wake up from chasing dreams Seek the truth In what will always be there in you You know it's not the rhythm Just to hear it's so sublime But you know it's not the rhythm No, not this time And I know it's not the rhythm But, to hear it's so sublime Even though it's not the rhythm One last time.

Not the Rhythm

She sings We feel all sorts of things Don't feel Just to hear it's so surreal And I know it's not the rhythm Just to hear it's so sublime And I know it's not the rhythm No, not this time. Say what you mean Don't become the in-between With or without You know it's nothing to think about And I know it's not the rhythm Just to hear it's so sublime And I know it's not the rhythm No, not this time. Stop to breathe Don't wake up from chasing dreams Seek the truth In what will always be there in you You know it's not the rhythm Just to hear it's so sublime But you know it's not the rhythm No, not this time And I know it's not the rhythm But, to hear it's so sublime Even though it's not the rhythm One last time.

Revolution institution Gather up the calvary Empty glasses for the masses Raised in unity From the fires, cue the choirs Sing a hymn of suffering Generation desperation As the angels sing Don't you know? You can't let go Cause it's so hard to say goodbye To what we dim the lights for Killing truth with lies we die for Programming emotion Manufacturing our lives We are the products of An over-processed love That is chemically defined Cheaper, faster Blood and plaster Heart-pumping machinery Gears and veins Rewired brains with Television dreams Burning engines Fueled by tensions Apprehension industry Mutilation of salvation As the angels scream Don't you know? You can't let go Cause it's so hard to say goodbye To what we dim the lights for Killing truth with lies we die for Programming emotion Manufacturing our lives We are the products of An over-processed love That is chemically defined

The city sleeps in the dead of night. The stars reveal a falling light. The angels are sleeping at the top of the hill. If the flash doesn't wake them then the sound Surely will. We rose from our beds with sleep in our eyes And clouds overhead now blanket the skies. The buildings and monuments are crashing to the ground Ashes to ashes We all fall down. There's a nuclear reaction to the judgement day display. And the screaming sound ascending to the tune of "Bomb's Away!" Hand in hand, we'll burn alive Like the way we feel inside. You hold me close and close your eyes 'Til particles of you and I collide. We collide singing, "Bomb's Away." Souls set free as fates are bound. Lives once lost, in love, now found. The city turns to ashes with these passions now full blown. Come together, for the first time It's the last time That we'll ever be alone. There's a nuclear reaction to the judgement day display. And the screaming sound ascending to the tune of "Bomb's Away!" Hand in hand, we'll burn alive Like the way we feel inside. You hold me close and close your eyes 'Til particles of you and I collide. We collide, singing: "Bomb's Away."
