MICROCOSM SHIT Each morning I wake up And I make myself some coffee Drink down the blackness to shake off my bad dreams I won’t let the mood set in, won't let it steep I'm lucky to feel anything In the age of the screens Turn on the tele for my dose of brain candy Flip on the news for my dose of brain brandy The news today doesn't seem all that new anyway In the blink of an eye, we'll all die - at least that's what they always say So lace up your shoes And turn your brain on Show the world your love Before what we got is all gone I may be crying But laughing sounds the same The world may be dying But I’m sure, yes I'm sure, that we’ll all be okay And I hope that my spirit doesn't drown in the drama Like that microcosm shit, like you forgot a fucking comma I've found the only way to survive this raging fire Is to make your whole life one big fucking satire I know it's a privilege to breathe this clean air But if that's a fucking privilege then our rights don't means shit in deciding what's even fair So bridge gaps with your enemies And dance without fame Give meaning to your life Before we all go insane I may be crying But laughing sounds the same The world may be dying But I’m sure, yes I’m sure, that we'll all be okay Aaaayyyyy aaaayyyyy ayyyyyyy

Earthlings 03:54
EARTHLINGS I don't know if you can tell, There's a fire in my heart and it's coming for you Even if you don't want it to I don't know if you can tell But this heart is gonna shake So I'd watch my step if I were you I don't know if you'll be there But this comet in my head It's gonna orbit round and round and round Orbit right into you! I am the Earth You are the Earthling If I provide I expect the same thing I am the Earth You are the Earthling And if I die You can expect the same thing Now there you've gone and done it Got me all choked up inside And I feel a storm Oh, it's coming on I don't know if you can tell You're gonna suffocate If you don't change your ways Change your ways, change your ways! Oh, if you don't change...! I don't know if you can tell There's a mass extinction coming on And I'll survive But you? You won't! I am the Earth You are the Earthling If I provide I expect the same thing I am the Earth You are the Earthling And if I die You can expect the same thing I don't know if you can tell… I don't know if you can tell… I don't know if you can tell

Cut the Cord 03:34
CUT THE CORD My mind is blurring reality's fabrications Time is bending with the mists and the wind Breathing stale air the black box speaks again The conquest for space is either ether or earth You can claim it in the name of some great link And you will blame it on a leader that lands while you sink Are you forgetting? Are you forgetting? Are you forgetting a life that you've never known? Cut the cord of attachment Cut the cord of attachment Open the toolshed You bring the power to what you do What you got is numbered Only by you Cut the cord of attachment Where do you fall? Where do you stand? If you know your limitations, you will learn to walk hand in hand Cut the cord of attachment Cut the cord of attachment Cut the cord of attachment Cut the cord of attachment

MORNING IS BOUND THE COME Morning is bound to come But I don't wanna wake up Oooh, I'll sleep in late and I'll take up some space If I wake and yesterday's turned fake Then I guess you'll break my heart Oooh, I knew my roots dug deep from the start Well you know what they say When you got a heartbreak It's like your dying day so go out and find a new name Oooo,oooo,oooo,oooo Oooo,oooo,ooo,oooo I gotta find a new name So look at me I'm Sandra Dee Why am I still in pain? Oooh, I keep making the same damn mistakes When emotions take over me feels like I'm under the sea And I got to dive deep to find out from where they came Oooo,oooo,oooo,oooo,oooo,ooooo,oooo Ooooooh, where they came I gotta find a new name Ooooo Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey!

QUARANTINE SONG Come with me Maybe you'll see that there's another world inside my heart Got to be quarantined It's nothing new to feel so torn apart Mass hysteria! A broken system must respond while people buy away their problems Don't want to be insensitive but all the toilet paper in the world couldn't solve them And yet... One by one we line up For toilet paper One by one we line up For hand sanitizer One by one we line up For paper towels One by one we line up For their last hours One by one we line up One by one we line up I've been So reliant on scientist's face that I've never seen Not even their voices Can overcome all the media's fear mongering The people, black mirrors, attach While the mirrors, idly, watch back Will you beg or will you rise in flames? Agitated, organizing, educate The people, black mirrors, attach While the mirrors, idly, watch back Will you beg or will you rise in flames? Agitated, organizing, educate A mental war full-time Without intention, prepare to lose your mind And yet... One by one we rise up To help each other One by one we rise up To not pay the rent One by one we rise up To share resources One by one we rise up To commune and mend One by one we rise up To share resources One by one we rise up To not pay the rent One by one we rise up To help each other One by one we rise up To commune and mend One by one we rise up One by one we rise up One by one we rise up One by one we rise up Come with me Maybe you'll see that there's another world inside my heart

RED EYED ROBOT Clock in, clock out Time makes less doubt But oh my god – I almost feel human Lights on, lights off I’m a red eyed robot And oh my god – I almost feel human I am always tired 'Cause I can never go to sleep My veins are nothing but wires And my heart beats on a screen I never belonged here But you just had to make me You have always lived in fear that you are incompl--ete--ete--ete! Briefcase, check please! Caramel latte, and your car keys Oh my creator – that is so human…? Target, trouble shoot! It’s war! Reboot boot boot! Oh my god – I feel JUST LIKE a human! I am always tired 'cause I can never go to sleep I may be a red-eyed robot but there’s not much difference between you and me I never belonged here but you made me what I am When we look in the mirror, we both look like a program! But oh my god – I almost feel human!

RESPECT THE RAGE You, you make my eyes bleed As I dig my dagger through Earth and Sky I'm not always a peaceful being With so much rage inside I've got anger issues, tell me twice I've got anger issues, tell me why You can't believe All that hate that's built in me I keep it in my throat And hold it there, hold it there, hold it there And don't let go. Respect, respect the Rage! Respect, respect the Rage! People dying, people killing People talking about it We all know it's never enough Just to talk about it Ya gotta act up, ya gotta Grow some shit sometimes Ya gotta act up, ya gotta get Offline! Okay! Okay, okay, okay Okay, okay, okay, Okay, okay okay, Are ya, are ya? Are ya, are ya? Are you really, are ya…okay? Respect, respect the Rage! Respect, respect the Rage! You can feel it building Deep on down inside You can feel it building Deep down inside You can feel it building Deep down inside You can feel it building Deep down inside You can feel it building, you can feel it building You can feel it building deep down inside! You can feel it building, you can feel it building, you can feel it building DEEP DOWN INSIDE. Respect, Respect the Rage! Respect, respect the Rage!

Like A Wolf 03:00
LIKE A WOLF Hands keep crunching down While wheels keep rolling round I'm just a workin workin for my satin pillows underground Cogged up in the machine Bossman's harassing me They call this "relax industry" That capitalistic irony Working to pay to the rent For money, my life's been spent Thank god for sweet music Give me that sweet music This life is worth so much more Then working for needs I can barely afford So give me that music, don't you charge a fee 'Cause baby you know true beauty unfolds and it don't cost a thing Wwooooooah Cogged up in the machine Fogged up mentality Like a little red-eyed robot This is where young dreams rot Working to pay for school For money, I am a fool Give me that sweet music I live for that sweet music This life is worth so much more Then working for needs I can barely afford So give me that music, that sweet ol' tune I'll make like a wolf, I'll be singing to the moon Ow ow ow ow ow ow woooooo
