PUBLIC RELATIONS Take a lie and make it true Constantly deceiving you Your perception's being managed While you sit there and let it happen The heart of humanity The public be damned Democracy is just a slogan Is there such a thing as freedom? Bad is good and good is evil The yoyo fear-of-terror level ZOMBIE HOLOCAUST Keep looking forward, looking high Find a new way of getting high Rise above the chaos for a while Get back in the chase Into oblivion we will drive Wasted on the dash, truth on our minds Tick, tick, tock we will not stop Get back in the race The truth is dead Just us alive Welcome to the rest of your life THE ENDGAME The last word is setting sail Let the endgame prevail When few remain There’s one line to cross We can all imagine, paradise Look into the fire What image is burned? Death or glory Cross the line Death or glory The maximum progression, there's one last move The ultimate agenda, a planned consequence We can all imagine paradise Look into the fire, what image remains? WAVES My voice cries out, will someone hear me? In the dark I'm disappearing Time will heal or so they say But it don't always work that way A black hole Inside my soul What's the matter with me? Waves and waves And waves and waves And they are drowning me Drowning me And I can't hold them back Grim reminders every day From the things I see to the words you say It's time to go, so I say goodbye I don't want to live but I don't want to A black hole Inside my soul What's the matter with me? Waves and waves And waves and waves And they are drowning me Drowning me And I can't hold them back I don't want to die but I don't want to live I don't want to live but I don't want to die I don't want to, I don't want to I don't want to, I don't want to If I lived my life again I'd only fuck it up the same A black hole Inside my soul What's the matter with me? What is the matter with me? Waves and waves (I don't want to, I don't want to) And waves and waves (I don't want to, I don't want to) And they are drowning me Drowning me Waves and waves (I don't want to, I don't want to) And waves and waves (I don't want to, I don't want to) And they are drowning me Drowning me And I can't hold them back

GAMES Oh yes I know I’m an idiot, I know you hate my guts Opinions don’t mean much You fix the dice, I despise The outcome is always the same I will not play your games Each day's the same, I take the blame I won't play Games Games Everyone’s a winner, look at the prize Don’t look at your life You fix the dice, I despise I follow the rules I do not know I will not play your games Some people never change I will not play your games Each day's the same, I take the blame I won't play Games Games Games Won't play your games You’re so clever I’m so dumb, I always play your game I will not play your games Some people never change I will not play your games Each day's the same, I take the blame I won't play Games Games Games Won't play your games Won't play your fucking games BEFORE I DIE Here and now How and why Yes or no Do or die I think I've found something I want to do I can't be scared of something new I'll give it a go, it's not too late I don't want to waste my life away Moving on Moving on Day by day Laugh or cry One by one Do or die I can see who I can be It's only me that's stopping me I'll give it a go, it's not too late I don't want to waste my life away Moving on Moving on Moving on Moving on Woah - Just one more time Woah - Before I die Before I die Before I die (Just one more time) BLINKO AND I Strung up on a web, a web of strangled thoughts Wrapped in a shroud of intricate details Pressed up against a great big wall of lies We're doomed to self destruct our tiny minds With all our self doubt and inner torment Help us someone, lend a hand To fathom the things we don't understand Empty, hollow, this life's a broken shell Lifeless sentence we serve it here in hell Burdens, heavy, they're carried on our backs Spiralling down 'til our sanity cracks With all our self doubt and inner torment Help us someone, lend a hand To fathom the things we don't understand Help us someone make us well Imprisoned in a fire burnt hell Ripped apart by this mortal coil Then we decompose beneath the soil Strung up on a web, a web of strangled thoughts Wrapped in a shroud of intricate details Pressed up against a great big wall of lies We're doomed to self destruct our tiny minds With all our self doubt and inner torment Help us someone, lend a hand To fathom the things we don't understand Help us someone make us well Imprisoned in a fire burnt hell Mental torment this is our lives lament NAIL IN THE SKY A nail in the sky Boxes floating by The choir joins in They all begin to sing A nail in the head Boxes lying dead No-one joins in They all begin to die Death, Decay Coffin full of peace Choir begins to smile Smiling as they go A nicer way to die Coffin full of life Never saw the strife Playing with the knife The stab you in the back Coffin full of peace Choir begins to smile No-one joins in No-one gets to sing

SWAMP TOO Black hand holds the ace Burned but survives, play one more deal Buried the body, it’s gone from our mind Friends fade into the haze, gunfire’s gone, it’s history The hand still holds the final ace, waiting to show the losing hand Can’t outrun the heat, pursue, take flight, disappear Drink up you’ll be fine, smash the bottle one more time Drink up you’ll be fine, never catch us for the crime Silver wing tips, with a cloak, descending, vacant and dead You will be hunted down, leave the kill to someone else Stare all you like, eyes always tell Into the abyss, this will be your last move Once was lost, now is found Scatter like leaves, let’s go to ground Not long til it all goes down In the desert you can't drown The lady appears to save the day? This will not be pleasant, there’s one last play THE MASK We don’t think when we speak We say things we don’t mean We don’t think when we speak We react BLURRR 3 Blurrr! MISERY Numb my brain Shut away the pain The fire comes The sky will fall The mirror cracks The faces fall My misery It's always there for me My misery Live with my misery LEAVING Miles and miles and miles of highs and lows Where we gonna crash? Nobody knows Tour bus legends 2009 Time to say goodbye for one last time Play and drink, move on and do it again Play and drink, move on and do it again It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home We got our shirts ripped off in the Czech Gamberro’s homebrew, getting wrecked The bombed-out buildings in Bosnia (Hey Ed!) It’s a long way home from Alsager Woah oh Woah oh Woah oh Play and drink, move on and do it again It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home 500 miles, 8 minutes to play Climb up the mountain in the rain Speakers in tents and a homemade stage Let's stay in this squat for another day Play and drink, move on and do it again Play and drink, move on and do it again It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home It's time to go, let's hit the road We're on our way back home

about

I thought I'd put up the vinyl masters as well as I not only like how it sounds but I love the flow from song to song rather than being interrupted by a gap that shouldn't be there.
