This Is Madness

I got the time
Got the plan
And I have to make a stand
Cos you know life's what you make it
I have to fall
Have to sink
Think I need another a drink
Cos you know life's what you make it
I need a sign
Need a view
That’s the only thing to do
Cos you know life's what you make it
It’s all right
Its all wrong
Soon you know we'll all be gone
Cos you know life's what you make it
And you could say, there's something in a smile
No, no, let it go, I don't want to ever know, anything, anymore, just show me the door
I'm out of time
Out of luck
And I start to come unstuck
Cos I know it’s what I made it
Another fall
Another drink
There's no further left to sink
Cos I know it’s what I made it
Check the sign
Check the view
That’s the only thing to do
Cos I know it’s what I made it
It’s all right
It’s all wrong
Now it’s already gone
Cos I know it’s what I made it
And you could say, there's something in a smile
No, no, let it go, I don't want to ever know, anything, anymore, just show me the door
This is madness, yes I must confess
This is madness, oh and nothing less

Who Are You
02:48
|

I don't know where we are going to
But I will let you know when I do
I can’t see if we will make it through
But you can tag along till we do
They tell you what they think you should be
They tell you what to do but
Who are you are you are who are you are
You are who are you are you are who are you?
Something’s coming; yeah something’s coming through the darkness
Something tells me it’s you
Time for telling, fortune or failure
But it will be you I'm sure
They tell you what they think you should be
They tell you what to do but
Who are you are you are who are you are
You are who are you are you are who are you?
Be yourself and no one else
Be yourself and no one else
Who are you are you are who are you are
You are who are you are you are who are you?

Last Ninja
03:03
|

He's the man, he's the man, he's the man on the floor
He's got the moves and you know he's a warrior
Through the smoke, there’s a light like nothing you know
There’s a glint in his eye, cos he's ready to go
He spins around and around like a shirken star
Jumps up and down, it’s time to get to the bar
There's a band on the stage, but they're not the show
He's a bomb and you know he's going to blow
See him turn and spin
Yeah, the dancing assassin
Last Ninja
So he's moving and a grooving to the beats that play
He's staying right here; no he's not going away
Then out of nowhere the music that’s playing just stops
He turns around and looks at the DJ box
He bows his head, lifts his specs, wipes the sweat from his eyes
Takes a breath, lets it out, yes he’s gonna survive
The music’s back, so again, it’s go, go, go!
He's the bomb of the dance and he's going to blow
See him turn and spin
Yeah, the dancing assassin
Last ninja of the dance floor
Last Ninja on the dance floor

Them & Us
03:17
|
|||
From the bones and the contention
Reasons we forget, don't mention
It is our road to redemption
Just a path to rising tension
You will be my adversary
I must be your burden to carry
Until the fight is done
Until we've destroyed everyone, 'cos its
Only them and us
Only them and us
Only them and us
Only them and us
Not like you and me
Not like you and me
No, not like you and me
Yeah they're the enemy
And we say god made them that way
Cause is second to ambition
Grounds lost to the long attrition
We will wear down your defences
Time to face the consequences
You will be my great opponent
Up until the final moment
I see all that is so true
That I don't really even know you
Only them and us
Only them and us
Only them and us
Only them and us
Not like you and me
Not like you and me
No, not like you and me
Yeah they're the enemy
And we say god made them that way
You can't fight them all
‘Only them and us’ will just make puppets of us all
‘Only them and us’ won't help to catch you when you fall
‘Only them and us’ will make a of war something small
‘Only them and us’ will be the ending of us all
Only them and us
Only them and us
Only them and us
Only them and us
Not like you and me
Not like you and me
No, not like you and me
Yeah they're the enemy

Do Not Pass Go
03:32
|

You've got the itch, you've got the cause
You've got a badge and a banner too
Time for a change, time for recourse
How could they disagree with you?
Calling fate and calling destiny
You want desperately to be somebody
Facing insults and the injuries
You want to challenge the monopoly
But I don't think you want to win
They have to pay, they have to answer too
They will be made to change their tune
And who can tell if you are right that
Something must be done and done soon
Calling fate and calling destiny
You want desperately to be somebody
Facing insults and the injuries
You want to challenge the monopoly
But I don't think you want to win
Where will this story end?
Feeding on unfounded fears
This can only end in tears
Calling fate and calling destiny
You want desperately to be somebody
Facing insults and the injuries
You want to challenge the monopoly
But I don't think you want to win
No, I don’t think you want to win

Epic Fail
04:56
|
|||
I know that you've been listening, to them
And building your picture
I see that now you are compelled, to believe
As if its scripture
My credibility erodes,
In your eyes, no possibility to ever undo
So sure of all the seeds they sewed
But everything you've ever been told is (probably) untrue
The second showing of the bill, but still
You're carving your sculpture
The rumour mill can't be dispelled, just received
Such sweet enrapture
Before my confidence departs
And my luck convinces me not to display my hand
Now it is time to play my part
But clearly the supply available exceeds demand
You win, end of story
One blow ends it for me
I know when I should stay down
Epic Fail
So what if I'm a failure
At least I'm not like you
So what if I'm a loser
At least I'm something true
So what if I'm a failure
At least I'm not like you
So what if I'm a loser
At least I'm something I consider true
Epic Fail

Together = Alone
04:13
|

I made the call and spoke to you just in time
Later you said it stopped you taking your own life
You said it’s all just been so low
Now there is nothing left you said but I know that
You’d cut your wrist for anything
You’d cut your wrist for anyone
You’d cut your wrist for anything
You’d cut your wrist for
Anyone that could give you what you can't find on your own
Anything that could show you all the love you've never known
But even when we're together, we are alone
You've been around, think you've found that someone new
Then you've been used and abused and embarrassed too
You think they understand you so well
They're still the only one for me you say, but I know that
You’d give yourself for anything
You’d give yourself to anyone
You’d give yourself for anything
You’d give yourself to
Anyone who could give you what you can't find on your own
Anything that could show you all the love you've never known
But even though we're together we are alone
Together Alone
You’d give yourself for anything
You’d give yourself to anyone
You’d give yourself for anything
You’d give yourself to
Anyone who could give you what you can't find on your own
Anything that could show you all the love you've never known
So even though we're together we are alone

Try On My Eyes
02:59
|
|||
Look at the page and I see
Words telling me to believe
Subtle subjective attacks
Put across as just the facts
Everything's simple you see
Black on white paper must be
Something to trust in today
"We are right" they say
Try on my eyes, but not to see
You will be blind yet speak for me
Try on my eyes, focus gone
No fight but I've already won
Switch on the TV to find
Pictures to persuade the mind
That thinking is long in the tooth
Never mind about the truth
Don't look beyond or beneath
That's not the way to relief
We will show you the right way
"Follow us" they say
Try on my eyes, but not to see
You will be blind yet speak for me
Try on my eyes, focus gone
No fight but I've already won
de omnibus dubitandum
Try on my eyes, watch your freedom go
Try on my eyes, you will never know
Try on my lies, they're a perfect fit
No sense in making sense of it
Everything is to be questioned
Between lies are the agendas
Think before you preach another's words

Worth It
03:31
|
|||
Me,
It’s all I see
My only need
Is just my profound egocentricity
From birth,
I've known my worth
Yes it’s my right to expect all of the earth
So you take one
And I'll take three
In fact just give that one right back here to me
It’s all mine
By my design
Now get to the back of the line
You won't catch me
No you won't catch me
No you can’t catch me no
Because I can, because I do
Because I deserve more then you
Because I never need admit
Because I am worth it
Second verse,
Same as the first
Same curse
Thought I'd get better but I only get worse
It’s true
I punish you
When you’re forced to live the way I want to
Much more
I'll take for sure
There are no battles because I own the war
And you will find
You are maligned
You see you don't matter and I don't mind
You won't catch me
No you won't catch me
No you can’t catch me no
Because I can, because I do
Because I deserve more then you
Because I never need admit
Because I am worth it

No Joke
03:31
|
|||
So I know it’s time to go
What you said is so wrong
But you must be joking, must be joking
You think you know,
You think you know someone
But you know nothing
Give me a reason to believe
And so you see
And so you see something
Something you can't deny
Give me a reason to believe
We are not so far apart
Though I think we are
You have dropped the bomb
This has gone too far
You want to run
You want to run faster
From impending disaster
Give me a reason to believe
But it makes sense
Yeah it makes sense to you
Everything fits so well
Give me a reason to believe
We are not so far apart
Though I think we are
You have dropped the bomb
This has gone too far
So I know it’s time to go
What you said is so wrong
You must be joking
You have to be joking
You’ve got to be joking
Must be joking yeah
Feeding time again
Feeding time
Feeding time again
And you're not joking
Feeding time again
No you’re not joking
It’s no joke
No, it’s no joke
No, it’s no joke
No, it’s no joke
No

Thank You Mister Atkins
03:14
|

You make us ride, fill us with pride, decide our lives and then
You tell us go, don't want to know if we'll survive
So we march and we die,
Families cry, do you care
We are the one, we are the one,
Who serve despite oblivion
You are the ones, you are the ones
Who put the men behind the guns
You hide at the back, calling attack, we fade to black and then
You deny we exist, no not on your list, now you are dismissed
So we fall and we crawl,
Just so you can forget us all
We are the one, we are the one,
Who serve despite oblivion
You are the ones, you are the ones
Who put the men under the gun
So we march on
Oblivion
We are the one, we are the one,
Who serve despite oblivion
You are the ones, you are the ones
Who put the men under the gun
We are the one, we are the one,
Who serve despite oblivion
You are the ones, you are the ones
Who put the men under the gun

Concrete Shoes
03:32
|
|||
So this, is what it’s about
You know there may be some flaws
But nothing you can't iron out
Give and then give some more
You know you can forgive anything
As long as you just ignore it
Welcome to the family
Cutting cruelty
You're just a casualty
You will be my ever after
I will be your great disaster
Baby I'm your concrete shoes
And they will cling to you
You try and then try again
To explain away marks
That reveal a deeper stain
Pain is the name of this game
You know that there is no love
Without some sacrifice
Welcome to the family
Cutting cruelty
You're just a casualty
You will be my ever after
I will be your great disaster
Baby I'm your concrete shoes
And they will cling to you
Should you stay or go you don't know
I'll convince you I will change though
You can't be sure, you must endure
Take the strain behind that closed door
Sinking further under straying further from parole
Concrete shoes still clinging to you weighing down your soul
Welcome to the family
Cutting cruelty
You're just a casualty
You will be my ever after
I will be your great disaster
Baby I'm your concrete shoes
And they will cling to you

Ouroboros
04:18
|
|||
This is the final warning
This is the ending of it all
This is the scratching record
This is the reason and the fall
You are an instrument though
Out of the instruments of time
You are a staccato note
Trapped between too many lines
Replicate, duplicate, imitate, desecrate,
Procreate, conjugate, stand in line and await
Just to try to feel something
Yeah, I think you understand.
It’s all been done before, yet you want to turn your hand and
Yeah, I think you wanted to,
It’s nice to be the wise one but it's better to be you
This is the turning wheel
This is the end and yet the start
This is the ouroborus
Watch us join as we depart
We are the orchestra now
Playing the fanfare and last post
We are a symphony chime
Heralding children and the ghosts
Replicate, duplicate, imitate, desecrate,
Procreate, conjugate, stand in line and await
Just to try to feel something
Yeah, I think you understand.
It’s all been done before, yet you want to turn your hand and
Yeah, I think you wanted to,
It’s nice to be the wise one but it's better to be you
Yeah, I think you understand.
It’s all been done before and yet you have to turn your hand
Yeah, I think you wanted to,
It’s nice to be wise, but it's best to be you
And when you get to the end
It’s time to begin again
Yes when you start at the end
No choice, just begin again
