- A World Without MelodyVer letra 2:32
[X]I don't want to liveletra de A World Without Melody
In a world without melody
Sometimes the rhythmic din
Of society is too much for me
But purpose is prioritized these days,
The goal is win the prize
There's a sleeping resonance we hold,
Through which we're unified
So let it out! Don't just get lost in the crowd
No one can deter you from your own path
There's no trip too remote
From which you can't come back
And I've got this hunch about you and me
None of us are ready
For a world without melody
Melody is the key,
It's the surest way
To unlock your individuality
Melody is the key,
It will set you free!
Don't disrelish harmony,
Community will make you whole
Work and understanding are the chords
Way deep within your soul
They only need to be struck once,
And the vibrations swell and spread
But if we mute them they decay,
Our sensibilities are dead
So let it out! Don't just be one of the crowd
Hesitance and diffidence will do you in
And your soul doesn't care
For social medicine
And I've got this hunch
About you and me
None of us are ready
For a world without melody
Melody is the key,
It's the surest way
To unlock your individuality
Melody is the key,
It will set you free!
And I know,
Together we could change the world
Just you and me
But I won't live without melody - New AmericaVer letra 3:24
[X]Do you know the cost of future misery?letra de New America
Have you lost your sense of sustainability?
We are just a step away
From realizing what we strive to be
But we've got to break out
From this insulated blind and lame senility
Wake up the new america
Wo-oh!
Transcend the mass hysteria
Wo-oh!
Change is the thing you're wary of
Wo-oh!
We need a new america
Wo-oh!
Laurels, human triumph,
Bestowments from the past
Victories don't mean a thing
If they don't last
We are just marching toward extinction
With blinders on our eyes
Jeopardizing everything
We've learned and come to realize
You call that wise?
Open your eyes america
Wo-oh!
See through the lies they tell to us
Wo-oh!
Confront the fears that worry us
Wo-oh!
We need a new america
Wo-oh!
We don't have to be afraid to re-invent
We've got to start to build,
Progress, and implement
For when we take our fill,
And never pay the price
We only build ourselves a fleeting,
False paradise
You can live in staunch denial
And mark me as your enemy
But I'm just a voice among the throng
Who want a brighter destiny
They say with me
We are the new america
Wo-oh!
This is the new america?
Wo-oh - 1000 MemoriesVer letra 3:00
[X]You were the one,letra de 1000 Memories
You were my everything
Never apart,
No one in-between
Then one day,
When you went your own way
You felt justified,
And I was mortified
But today...
You are just a picture
And a thousand memories
Is all I take with me
Cuz your smile
Is just too much to see
You're just a thousand memories
Fantasies, broken dreams
Reveries, sordid histories
Following my heart,
Laden with reaction,
Without calibration or design
Committed to a trial,
A life of understanding
Can't somebody show a sign to you?
For me, to see if you only knew
That you were the one...
Cuz a picture is worth
One thousand memories - A Streetkid Named DesireVer letra 3:17
[X]Well, it was punk-fifteen in the morningletra de A Streetkid Named Desire
And it was time
To stand my ground
And as the gawks and stares bombarded me
You know, I didn't even
Hear a sound
No one gave a damn
If I was there or away
If I died and went to hell,
They'd throw a party on my grave
And they'd all say,
"this kid is just a fool, he'll never be cool,
They might as well just ship him off
To some other school"
Plain destitute
Just a little too guilty, just a little too soon
That day was just like any other day
No work, and no pay
I knew that paradise was some other place
And I'd get there another day
I will find it before I expire
Cuz I've got the desire
Well, it was punk-fifteen in the evening
And it was time to set the town on fire
I saw my boots and my hair,
As reflected in the mirror,
Reveal a streetkid named desire
I didn't give a damn
Because I was just dying to be
And as the hollywood street scene
Left it's mark on me
I changed from a boy into a man
I said "never again!"
I stuck out my chin when I should have ran
Shit in the fan
I was driven so hard
By the sound of my heart
When the walls surround
In deeper shades of blue
And there's no voice of reason inside you
And you search for meaning
On an empty shelf
Then you're always dreaming
Of somewhere else
Today is just like any other day
No fear, no restraint
I know that paradise is some other place
And I will get there another day
You can come with me,
No conditions or fares
Somehow, somewhere,
I will find it before I expire,
Cuz I've got the desire - Whisper In TimeVer letra 2:32
[X]All those stories that my dad told me,letra de Whisper In Time
They are just a whisper in time
All those things that never came to be,
They are just a whisper in time
A whisper in time, a whisper in time
Things that I can't shake from my mind
A whisper in time, a whisper in time
Moments that just flicker and die
All those places I wanted to go,
They are just a whisper in time
All those friends who now I do not know,
They are just a whisper in time
A whisper in time, a whisper in time
Moments I can't shake from my mind
A whisper in time, a whisper in time
Memories that flicker and die
Maps and roads that brought me here today,
They are just a whisper in time
Circumstances that were explained away,
They are just a whisper in time
A whisper in time, a whisper in time
Things that I can't shake from my mind
A whisper in time, a whisper in time
Moments that just flicker and die
Because we are messengers of memory,
Just whispers in time. - Believe ItVer letra 3:41
[X]It could happen to you,letra de Believe It
A defect from the
Wasted outskirts of los angeles
With a crumpled-up pass for the RTD
And no authority or trajectory
On the brink of insanity
You'd better believe it
Because it's written all over your face
Just a neighborhood reject,
Out of step and out of place
You'd better believe it
Would you ever have thought
Persistence could prevail
Against the almost
Unbearable weight of the system?
With nothing better to do,
And no one else who you can look up to
You'd better believe it
Because it's written all over your face
A political defect,
Out of step and out of place
You'd better believe it
And the future is bright
When ideas run astray
So turn out the light,
A punk can't have a say
Sometimes desire is all that's there
Who said life was fair? - I Love My ComputerVer letra 3:05
[X]I love my computerletra de I Love My Computer
You make me feel alright
Every waking hour
And every lonely night
I love my computer
For all you give to me
Predictable errors and no identity
And it's never been quite so easy
I've never been quite so happy
All I need to do is click on you
And we'll be joined
In the most soul-less way
And we'll never
Ever ruin each other's day
Cuz when I'm through I just click
And you just go away
I love my computer
You're always in the mood
I get turned on
When I turn on you
I love my computer
You never ask for more
You can be a princess
Or you can be my whore
And it's never been quite so easy
I've never been quite so happy
The world outside is so big
But it's safe in my domain
Because to you
I'm just a number
And a clever screen name
All I need to do is click on you
And we'll be together for eternity
And no one is ever gonna take my love
From me because I've got security,
Her password and a key - The Hopeless HousewifeVer letra 2:59
[X]Oh me oh myletra de The Hopeless Housewife
Get out of your 1950's fantasy,
Your face shines with misery
Transparently
Spew out that sobering
Half-assed victim rhetoric
Make 'em all squirm
While they chew on it
It's a secret handshake
And a passing wink of the eye
As the witches bridge club weekly
Meets to pen the tail on the sly
But they never ask
"why oh why don't we raise our voices to the sky?"
Instead you're mute
And fawn just waiting to die
Like some kind of hopeless housewife
But you can change while you're alive
And let 'em all know
At least you tried to kill the demons inside
Oh me oh my
Damn your transcendental paralysis,
We can work together
And make sense of this
Don't be so sure
You can chuck it all away
You've got to proceed
No matter how bad you want to stay
It's a natural cause
And a comfort zone
There in your head
And the world turns away
As you tap the snooze button in bed
But nobody can hear a word you said
Your history was never read
Instead you're mute
And fawn just waiting to die
Like some kind of hopeless housewife
But you can change while you're alive
And let 'em all know
At least you tried to kill the demons inside - There Will Be A WayVer letra 2:52
[X]Shut your eyes,letra de There Will Be A Way
See the future's distant shore
March ahead
More enlightened than before
And there's sure to be bumps
And distractions
But I know we'll get through
There will be me, there will be you
There will be a way
Unresolved repercussions from your life
Fortified with the vitriol of strife
And you can be gridlocked by predictions,
But you're wise grab the prize
Then revise, realize
There will be a way
Hey... Ho
And I don't know where we are going
But we're here on this ride
And we'll stand side by side
All along the way
Follow me to the future's distant shore
Vagary needn't haunt us anymore
And now it's time to set the agenda,
Learn the past, make it last
Share the wealth, hold your fire,
Conserve life, make it right
Kill the hate, negotiate
There will be a way
There will be a way
There will be a way - Let It BurnVer letra 2:44
[X]Let your mind wander,letra de Let It Burn
Look beyond the shadows
Focus on the skyline,
Read the silhouettes
Your deepest desires
Are a picture of tomorrow
All your darkest fears
Are just a vestige of regret
And it's wo-oh oh oh
It seems like such a long way to go
As obstacles get bigger,
Prevailing winds blow stronger
And the fire continues to grow
Don't let shallow water limit your perception
Heed the new horizon,
Muster to it fast
The moments of your yesterdays
Are in the wake behind you
You can't assess the future
If you're living in the past
Keep it stoked!
If you are committed
To a life of understanding
Then there's no agenda
For vengeance in your life
Sharpen all your senses,
Face the opposition
You can overcome
With fortitude and mental might
The fire continues to grow,
In your soul
So be bold, let it grow
Don't let it die
Let it burn! - Don't Sell Me Short 3:57
- The Fast LifeVer letra
[X]The silent stray inertialetra de The Fast Life
No burden on my back
No determinance, no ballast
No chance of looking back
It doesnt matter whats ahead
Its time Ill hit it hard
No fixing my position
No sign of retard
Its the fast life
Theres nothing I can do
The fast life
Suck it in and follow through
The fast life
Just learning as I go
You might call it careless
But this fast life
Is all Ive ever known
Like a wispy feather
Defying gravity
Or a rolling cobble
In the middle of the stream
Propelled by a ghost force
That never shows his face
Increase the ante
Of this perpetual pace
Its the fast life
Theres nothing I can do
The fast life
Suck it in and follow through
The fast life
Just learning as I go
You might call it careless
But this fast life
Is all Ive ever known
Ever since the day
I came out of the womb
My head was always bouncing
Off the walls in the room
Always scratching gravel
Covering new ground
No matter how hard they tried
They couldnt pin me down
Its just the fast life
Theres nothing I can do
The fast life
Suck it in and follow through
The fast life
Just learning as I go
You might call it careless
But this fast life
Is all Ive ever known
Yeah its all Ive ever known - Queen of the 21st CenturyVer letra
[X]From the time she could crawlletra de Queen of the 21st Century
She was all draped in macrame'
She was preen and redeemed
In a church that tried to show the way
She was taught to never ask for more
They had no idea of what she had in store
She's the queen of the 21st century
Just a ghost of what her parents thought a little girl should be
Analog heart, analog nerves, analog brain
But a fixture of the digital domain
Woh...
From the time she could read
She could see that there was urgency
No debate, just a spate of ignorance in a splintering community
She could never meet their expectations
Then she came to symbolize the nation
She's the queen of the 21st century
Just a shell of what her parents thought a little girl should be
Steeped in spite, coddled in fear, drenched in novelty
Oh but masterful of sensual technology
Oh...
She's the queen
She's the queen
No rules in her empire
She's the queen
Just libido and desire
She's a lean, mean fighting machine
The stuff for modern media lore
And she always knows the score
She's the queen of the 21st century
Just a ghost of what her parents thought a little girl should be
Fallen star, black and blue, broken hearts, wasted youth
Rusted cars, twisted roots, mental scars, the ugly truth
Oh...
She's the queen of the 21st century
And she's a modern day romantic, a walking controversy
She's the queen of the 21st century
She's the queen
