after the long day
and the courageous display you came
sand beneath my feet
my family proceeds no blame
cameras appear
the media is here
it's okay dad you can't a photograph
son you've always been my best invention
the man with the contract
his prominence intact has come
look in the boy's bag
the marbles that he had are gone
there will be no signing today
there will be no signing tomorrow
there will be no signing forever

This Paradise (live)

One million miles, walls of dials
And gauges red, all others dead
The stars outside, are bright and clear
I calculate, their light years
The radio just beeps and sparks
The lights above have all gone dark
A tractor beam is now engauged
This rescue mission is too late
This could be the best day of my life x2
One million smiles, metallic eyes
Populate, this paradise
They're all like me, in this galaxy
I feel at home, in this world of machines
The radio here never stops
Playing new wave robot rock
The sky outside stays bright all night
With the help of the constant flight
One million smiles, metallic eyes
Populate, this paradise
They're all like me, in this galaxy
I feel at home, in this world of machines

Falling Floor (live)

Leave the fear behind
There won't be a place to climb
Slip and slide on solid ground
Trying not to drown
We all make mistakes
(open the falling door)
Or we'll all be flat
(beware of the falling floor)
Play the bones
Strike the right note on this old piano
Don't look back, we're far too close
Hang onto hope
We all make mistakes
(open the falling door)
Or we'll all be flat
(beware of the falling floor)
Beware the falling floor

Save Your Exit (live)

I can't wait until that time
We won't be late and what we'll find
Will save our simple lives
1, 2, 3, rocks I see
In a stone far from home
As a group we're not alone
Count our steps, watch our breath
Check the map, how many left
How many left
There's no one around, There's no one but us here
Don't wanna be found, Leave us alone
Let us disappear
It's our time down here
Don't say die, forget our fears
We'll survive, so shed your tears
This is our time
This is our time down here
This is our time
This is our time down here
Save your exit for someone who cares
Save your exit for someone who cares

Separate (live)
04:53
|

|
I exist only in cybernetic portals
Organs replaced by capacitors, neural paths by CAT5
Binary commands me, sending orders
Reprogram the ????????
So I can separate what I am before it's too late
So I can separate what I am before it's too late
Take my ??? and my skin, burn it in the fire
Upgrade my heart and my mind, to the version higher
Binary commands me, sending orders
Reprogram the ?????????
So I can separate what I am before it's too late
So I can separate what I am before it's too late
If I can

The Struggle (live)
08:15
|
|||
|
I'm tired, I'm tired of working long hours
I'm left without the power to face another day
I pray for the strength and the patience to wait
For the daylight to break
And then ??? look to the sky
???? go by
It's there I find a new peace
Out upon the open sea
The graveside, the casket's lowered into the ground
The people ??? without a sound ????
It's harder to pay the bills on this wage
Since my father passed away
