What the hell are you talking for? Running your mouth about what you don't know. You're stupid and you talk too much. Sorry you had to find out this way. It's a brave new world that waits for you It's a strange and lonely world It's a brave new world that they built for you If you want to leave, you hold the key. What the hell are you waiting for? Get up! Get up! get out on the floor Ain't got a thing to prove to me. Prove it to yourself. It's a brave new world that waits for you It's a strange and lonely world It's a brave new world that they built for you If you want to leave... you should know, you should know, you should know, YOU It's a brave new world that they built for you It's a strange and lonely world It's a brave new world that they built for you If you want to leave, you hold the key

Are we a hateful species? Undoubtedly so Where do we fall as people? In the line of fire, rise up from the flames And the chains in our minds we must break that we've created I ain't no pin-up boy They'll lock me up for talking 'crazy' to you I'm not telling you the truth If you're not sharing truth with me Cast Pearls Before Swine Will we die from our own arrogance? I can't really say Is Love the light that shines on us as people striving for longevity? If we can be as one big family Call me delusional Call me a 'dreamer-boy' You don't seem to care now And I know No you didn't care before Are we a hateful species? Undoubtedly so Where do we fall as artists? In the line of fire, rise up from the flames And the chains in our minds we must break that we've created Call me arrogant Call me self-absorbed Disrespect from someone who can't respect themselves won't break skin

She said "where are my keys" I said "they're where you left them" I said "please don't worry you make me dizzy the way you spin around the room" And she kept me waiting (up all night) And she kept me waiting (with all the love left to make) She said "Where were you last night? I couldn't reach you." (you were hanging with your 'friends') "You in a bottle! Is that how it's gonna end?" She kept me waiting (up all night) She kept me waiting (with all the love left to make)

I would like to know right now What is going on upstairs? Down here we have the right to know what are we dying for? I am not inclined to waste all of my precious time you know what I mean, when I say Don't wanna turn into some Goddamn Machine I would like to know right now What he's building in there? Down here we have the right to know Exactly what we're fighting for? I am not inclined Tow waste all of my precious time you know what I mean, when i say Don't wanna turn in to some Goddamn Machine...

When we say that "we're human" It's usually in reference to how we're weak How we fail one another, or how history repeats What about our strength? What about courage under fire? What about burning all your lies and all the liars What about a a funeral pyre? It's me getting over on you It's you getting over on me Some would call that 'winning' I'd say that's where we're weak... The pretty white lights are shining Designed to hide what's hiding You know it's always been that way You close your eyes and see it The answer's inside. believe it The past is the past and it's ancient now You are forgiven Go forth and be I feel the tables turning Same time both sides is where I'll be Been bought and sold before I was old Enough to know it's despicable Just because they Lord over you Don't make them the Lord and that's the Truth Take it back You are forgiven Go forth and Be I feel the tables turning Same time both sides is where I'll be
