Everybody hears but no one’s listening They say it’s all in my mind Relax, It’ll be alright Appearance doesn't seem to be It’s buried deeper under my skin I’m here bone and flesh Took the shot but I’m not dead Toxic Burning faster Toxic Bitter blood Toxic Silent dancer Slipping into the dark Doctor, I don’t need that pill It’s taking me past sleep frontier Poison, system overflow Infect my mind but release my soul I’m here bone and flesh Took the shot but I’m not dead Toxic Burning faster Toxic Bitter blood Toxic Silent dancer Slipping into the dark Dark Ahh ahh I’m here, bone and flesh Took the shot but I’m not dead I’m here bone and flesh, Took the shot but I’m not dead Toxic Burning faster Toxic Bitter blood Toxic Silent dancer Slipping into the Toxic Burning faster Toxic Bitter blood Toxic Silent dancer Slipping into the dark
2.	Get Away 03:35	lyrics	buy track
Another warning, Another picture on the news Another calling No helping hand to take the bruise Another stranger Another empty serenade Another captain Sets the rules we must obey And it’s not like I mean it It’s not like I care It’s not like I’m anybody else And it’s not like I mean it But I want it all How does it feel When you’re not ok? When you’ve just got nothing left to say? How does it feel When you're not in control? When it’s out of your hands When you’re not in the zone? How does it feel When you’re not ok? Well you’ve just gotta Gotta get away Another setback Another take it on the chin Ungrateful glory Haunted down by thought police Another drifter Just searching for a place to be Come in, you’re welcome But don’t you dare sit next to me How does it feel When you’re not ok? When you’ve just got nothing left to say? How does it feel When you're not in control? When it’s out of your hands When you’re not in the zone? How does it feel When you’re not ok? Well you’ve just gotta Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away How does it feel When you’re not ok? When you’ve just got nothing left to say? How does it feel When you're not in control? When it’s out of your hands When you’re not in the zone? How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel When you’re not ok? Well you’ve just gotta Gotta get away
3.	Are You On? 03:10	lyrics	buy track
Is this the life? Is this the life? We’re living for the city now Is this the life? Is this the life? You’re stuck in your 9-5 Come here and tell me What are we doing wrong? Are you on? (What are you waiting for?) Are you on? (Something worth fighting for) Are you on? (Is it really worth living for?) Are you alive or are you just hanging on? Is this the dream? Hear my scream My feet are tired and my soul is sinking in Why don’t you tell me When are we moving on? Won’t you come here and tell me This game is just a bore But you’re not here alone What are we doing wrong? Are you on? (What are you waiting for?) Are you on? (Something worth fighting for) Are you on? (Is it really worth living for?) Are you alive or are you just hanging on? Are you on? Are you on? Are you on? Are you alive or are you just hanging On Are you on? Are you on? Are you on? Are you on? Are you on? Are you on? Are you alive or are you just hanging on?
4.	Break Free 04:23	lyrics	buy track
I’ve become the mannequin of my illusion I’ve become what I always feared Sentiment got lost in mass confusion Soulless, loveless, incomplete I’ve lost my head, now I can't find it I’ve misplaced my reverie I keep on running through this concrete jungle Frozen, broken, bittersweet And it’s time now to close our eyes And it’s time to break free And it’s time now to close our eyes We’ll break free, we’ll break free, we’ll break free I’m always far ahead of my position And no, I’m no time traveller I see the world escape through my fingers Nothing I can do to retain Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh And it’s time now to close my eyes And it’s time to break free And it’s time now to close my eyes We’ll break free, break free, break free And it’s time now to close my eyes And it’s time now to break free And it’s time now to close my eyes We’ll break free, break free, break free
5.	The Wire (Live @ Rockaway Studios) 03:37	lyrics	buy track
I pack my bags, Wish me well, It’s scary, yeah, I know it But there’s something in my heart that keeps me going Keeps me floating Above the open sea Above this crude reality Hold my hand, Guide me right, The road is long and winding But I’m following the steps as they rise Find me where the sun don’t shine Where nobody keeps a promise And it’s all about who’s first in line Find me where the braver stay And friends are only people You find along the way Take it or leave it No looking back, Jump into the water, The best is yet to come Just believe in what you can’t see Treading on the edge of the highest cliff And you dive Feels like you’re on the verge of losing your mind Find me where the sun don’t shine Where nobody keeps a promise And it’s all about who’s first in line Find me where the braver stay And friends are only people You find along the way I can’t escape from this place I’m chained to the wire It keeps me alive It keeps me alive I get down on my knees And I burn in the fire I need to survive I need to survive And we dive Feels like we’re on the verge of losing our minds Find me where the sun don’t shine Where nobody keeps a promise And it’s all about who’s first in line Find me where the braver stay And friends are only people You find along the way
