Such a useless cry / When the times define your life / You owe body and soul / What a life we have / In a useless mess a song protests / As they take it all away they say / You’re not alive until your belly’s full / So you stole everything that we needed / This is the first act / We want it all back / The curtain calls / let the puppets say
They think they own the world / The world isn’t big enough / We need to have a little more
You get what you ask for/ it’s not enough there’s always a little more
Remember what we had / They could’ve stopped / They saved an apology / They made up a story / Silently had it all / We just make the best of it / What a life to have / When it’s taken away / Without an exchange / You want more and more / We wont stop until we get it all back / This is the final act / Patience is what we lack / So we play our games / We steal the world
We think we have it all / The world is bigger than we see / So have a little more / As the useless cry / We think we own it all / The world is bigger than they need / So have a little more
You get what you ask for/ it’s not enough there’s always a little more
These seasons change / We’re still playing the same games / We will never change / The world won’t always be this way / I’m not sure of the purpose / These guesses are all questions / That lead to my distractions / So we wait for it all / We know there’s a fall ahead / We’re just guests in the world / We stole the life from it
You’ll get what you ask for

Without Warning
03:05
|
|||
It was that perfect daze in that perfect gaze / It was trouble from the start / It nearly broke my heart / I hadn’t spoke two words / Then we sang/We only spoke few words / The words were enough to make my heart skip a beat as I fell apart / Then we only seemed to get out a crooked smile / It’s not good enough / It’s never good enough
Then they all said that these words should come so easy / that little number she did that trick to me / They sang words that can’t compare / To the feeling of her heartbeat and that perfect stare
I guess this is a feeling of a fall / I guess this is the feeling of it all
When we spoke the poet died but the words still showed / that we only need to get out of this town alive / It’s not good enough for the both of us / We’re cursed with a four letter word / We never seem ready / For that perfect storm
that comes without warning / Then the tides pass by with another way to try / That perfect song tonight
Then they all said that these words should come so easy / that little number she did that trick to me / They sang words that can’t compare / To the feeling of her heartbeat and that perfect stare
I guess this is a feeling of a fall / I guess this is the feeling of it all
The more and more I try to get you out of my mind /I know you’ll always stay / And even though I try to make you all mine / I know you’ll always walk away / Even though we try / That perfect storm will kill a thousand in its wake

Same Old State
03:48
|
|||
This is the same avenue we’ve always drove through / By the end of the night / We’ll get ready / For the steadiness of another sharp and shifty night / There was something I’ve been meaning to ask you / If it’s alright / When we get back could we just pack and go / This is an uncommon show / I’ll be gone before you know / In this same ole state / Where nothing changes / We remain stuck in a photograph stain
We waste our life searching for those big city nights / The avenue’s on fire / We chase the night searching for the big city lights / The avenue’s on fire
I need to get out of this town before I drown / I walk away / I heard that home is were the heart is / I’ll miss this place \ I’m packed up / I’m ready/ For the good times / They’re ahead of me right now / I feel like a castaway / A castaway in a public place / Where the guests have no name / This same old state is a missing fear / And as memory remains / The drive will stop at the local common theme / I missed this place / I walked away / But that’s where I’ll always stay
We waste our life searching for those big city nights / The avenue’s on fire / We chase the night searching for the big city lights / The avenue’s on fire

Dying Days
03:09
|
|||
This is our life / We’ve wasted time / We’ve done this right / These weekends with my best friends / Sure enough we’re bound to cross that fine line / At least we’ll try / It’s the last call everyone straight for the line / It’s going to be the best night of our dying life / Let’s act up Ruby / Last shot for the night / This is a bad sign
The weak days at a weekend’s end / It pays to act up so let’s do it all again / We know this could be the best night of a dying life / We lose all control before we go back home
We’re scared but we’ll be ok / We’ll get through these dying days / And we’ll stay for one more day / Thinking about the good time and those bad times / The best friends and those goodbyes / On our private stage we celebrate / We raise our glasses to the past that’s gone / Raise them higher for the ones moved on / This perfect way to end our day
We show up / We act up / We paint all our eyes shut
The weak days at a weekend’s end / It pays to act up so let’s do it all again / We know this could be the best night of a dying life / We lose all control before we go back home

Strange Parody
04:17
|
|||
The strategy never works out / Sometimes we think to far ahead / Everything will work out / Something’s wrong this time / So we sit back we’ll relapse / We’ll do it again / I know that we can’t forgive and forget / I know you do what you can / But it makes no difference
You’re headfirst at the starting line, you choke and see it isn’t close
We remember the day you came / The guest of honor in a social man’s parade / We remember the day you changed / The stranger showed his face / Six feet down in a makeshift grave
A scientific paralysis in a game show that we missed / A forty hour week deserves a drink / A hangover seeks apologies / We will never see / Our histories a strange parody
We remember the day you came / The guest of honor in a social man’s parade / We remember the day you changed / The stranger showed his face / Six feet down in a makeshift grave
Remember why you changed / You threw your life away /And as you sit in your plague / Just know that we can’t stay
We seem to remember the past was best until we can’t carry on
The mannequins have spoken / Their silhouettes have stayed quiet tonight / We’ll survive this

Wasted World
04:47
|
|||
It was a quiet night when the world passed us by / As we kept shouting loud / We woke the neighbors in a crowd / As the radios lights the room / It gets quiet / As they all stayed stuck in a radio song / The misguided voices have it wrong / As we kept walking / They kept talking / Then they all said / That we’ve lost all control / There’s nothing left / In this situation / That never seems to end / Stuck in a hole we lost all control / We’re left for dead
We are the wasted but we’re not wasting our time
When we woke up it was all over town / Your silent face disturbs the crowd and makes them wonder / What went quite wrong / This was such a tragedy from the beginning / We wonder what we lost
When we woke up / We wondered what went wrong / The world stopped and we kept moving on / In this situation that never seems to end / Stuck as a whole we lost all control and there’s nothing left / When catastrophe is just waiting / Guess who’s laughing now / Guess who’s laughing now / In this wasted world / With its tasteless morals / We won’t give in / We are playing dead
When we woke up it was all over town / Your silent face disturbs the crowd and makes them wonder / What went quite wrong / This was such a tragedy from the beginning / We wonder what we lost
When we woke up / The world was blurred / We had enough
We are the Wasted / We wont give into your Wasted World
