Hive Mind 03:19
Wake up it's a beautiful day, got a lot of things you need to say Plugged in and going live, check in with the rest of the hive, Get on board with the current thing, controlled consensus is a way of living, Add your voice to the majority, whilst maintaining anonymity Wake up it's a terrible day, some of the things you hear them say, Fallen foul to the verbal knife, but when you signed up it was for life, Stress levels at an all time high, Pushed to the edge, you want to die. No escape, what can you do, When the Hive Mind it turns on you

Arranged to meet down by the lake, Never thought of things to take Cos we were young and didn't care The sun beating down on me, I've never felt so free Breeze blowing through my hair Those days were full of wonder, and they just took me underneath their spell, so we might as well, Live Fast The whole world at our feet, excitement tastes so sweet Those days changed me for sure, they opened up a door Dumped our stuff under the bridge, there's nothing that I wouldn't give To have those days again Building dens and shooting cans, but the boy became a man When she introduced herself Those days were full of wonder, and she just took me underneath her spell, so I might as well, Give In The whole world at our feet, first love it tastes so sweet She changed my life for sure, and opened up a door Arranged to meet her the next day, Heads gone, I'm blown away The innocence of youth We just lay and talk for hours, through the sun, the wind and showers Cos we were young and didn't care I miss those Long Lost Summers

Ulysses 05:08
Open you eyes, and face the day, breathe it in Destiny's calling, focus your mind, and let fear out I'm calling on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm calling on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm calling on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm calling on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down The fears of all our lives, can bring you down, and broken into pieces Just keep the faith, and believe, The war is never over I'm counting on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm counting on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm counting on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm counting on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm calling on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm counting on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm calling on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm counting on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm calling on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm counting on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm calling on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down I'm counting on you Ulysses, I hope you never let us down

Blessed 05:29
BLESSED Gather and comfort me, fresh from the tragedy Raise me back up on my feet Banish the darkest hours, heal me with your powers Help me to this nightmare beat When I think about Love, And how I've perceived It seems it's all or nothing with little in between And when I think about faith, and how that plays out Blessed are the ones who remain devout Tell me I'm wrong, that I am deranged That I have simply become estranged When I think about Love, And how I've perceived It seems it's all or nothing with little in between And when I think about faith, and how that plays out Blessed are the ones who remain devout When I think about Love, And how I've perceived It seems it's all or nothing with little in between And when I think about faith, and how that plays out Blessed are the ones who remain devout

Change 03:19
Love show me the way, to embrace this life with glee I always hate this time of night, It's when my demons talk to me I hear them calling, Calling out my name Are they heralding a change, or will things always stay the same? Fill me with your love, I'll take as much as you can give I want to find myself again, and remember how to live I hear them calling, calling out my name Are they bringing a new dawn, or will things stay the same? Please don't change, the little beauty that's inside you I'll always be around to guide you Through this world of bitterness Let's find a better day Love show me the way, to embrace this life with glee I always hate this time of night, It's when my demons talk to me I hear them calling, Calling out my name Are they heralding a change, or will things always stay the same? I hear them calling, calling out my name Are they bringing a new dawn, or will things stay the same?

Where do I go from here, my mind is frozen, paralyzed with fear Got to make it through the dark, but it's so much harder when you have lost your heart What you going to do is all I here them say, walking on eggshells every day, around you How you going to try and make this right, no idea of what's going on, In my mind Is love ever going to shine on me, Is love ever going to shine on me again Is love ever going to shine on me baby, Is love ever going to shine on me again Where do I go from here, I need to find the strength to make it through that's clear And I have paid a price, though I am grateful to have made it out alive Is love ever going to shine on me, Is love ever going to shine on me again Is love ever going to shine on me baby, Is love ever going to shine on me again Is love ever going to shine on me, Is love ever going to shine on me again Is love ever going to shine on me baby, Is love ever going to shine on me again Is love ever going to shine on me, Is love ever going to shine on me again Is love ever going to shine on me baby, Is love ever going to shine on me again Is love ever going to shine on me darling, Is love ever going to shine on me again Is love ever going to shine on me baby, Is love ever going to shine on me again

Girls 03:36
GIRLS I'm confused, no word of a lie, many things can puzzle me On display right before my eyes, some questionable femininity Now I've seen things in my life, how certain men would choose to be But they were just still Bob or Steve, and not Felicity Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, To Mess with my Mind On the TV the other day, a Doctor said a man could give birth I was disturbed by what I heard him say, Now what's that Doctors title worth? I've always been pro a person's choice, but now things have got way too blurred Genders run into the dozens, not sure that I believe a word Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, To Mess with my Mind Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, To Mess with my Mind Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, To Mess with my Mind Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, Here Come The Girls, To Mess with my Mind

Hurt So Much 03:28
HURT SO MUCH We all have to face the pain, everyone of us will confront it some day And though I'm versed in how it goes, you're never prepared for the blows We all pay a heavy price, putting back the pieces of a broken life And no matter what the cost, you're just meant to carry on Why does this hurt, why does this hurt so much? How can this hurt, how can this hurt me so much? Things break from time to time, some are justified, others just a crime No matter what the cause, you're going to feel the pain for sure Why does this hurt, why does this hurt so much? How can this hurt, how can this hurt me so much? Why does this hurt, why does this hurt so much? How can this hurt, how can this hurt me so much? Why does this hurt, why does this hurt so much? How can this hurt, how can this hurt me so much?

Stupid 03:56
We live our lives like stupid cunts, putting up with shit we know we shouldn't And it's taking all my strength to stay calm, but part of me would like to cause harm And that's not me, I'm gentle and kind, but they keep fucking with my mind And it's so hard not to cave in, can we tear it down and start again? We live our lives like obedient slaves, on a conveyor belt to an early grave And I'm sure it's not the only way, watching everything just rot and decay And that's not me, I love to see life, but they keep fucking with my mind It's so damn hard not to cave in. can we tear it down and start again? And I pray, for the souls of all the weak and innocent And I pray, for everyone who's damned Mu heart bleeds for the passive and the kind who walk this earth Cos in the end no one gets what they deserve We live our lives like stupid cunts, putting up with shit we know we shouldn't And it's taking all my strength to stay calm, but part of me would like to cause harm And that's not me, I'm gentle and kind, but they keep fucking with my mind And it's so hard not to cave in, can we tear it down and start again? And that's not me, I love to see life, but they keep fucking with my mind It's so damn hard not to cave in. can we tear it down and start again? And that's not me, I'm gentle and kind, but they keep fucking with my mind And it's so hard not to cave in, can we tear it down and start again? And that's not me, I love to see life, but they keep fucking with my mind It's so damn hard not to cave in. can we tear it down and start again?

I'm Alive 03:10
Here I am, trying to exist, Trying to find the part of me that hasn't given in But wait, right there There's trouble almost, everywhere And you don't want trouble now I'm Alive, I'm Alive I'm Barely Alive Here I go, with the courage of a Lion A hero for our times Here to save the day And wait, right there There's danger almost, everywhere And you don't need danger now I'm Alive, I'm Alive I'm Barely Alive I'm Barely Alive Barely Alive Barely Alive I'm Barely Alive
