they say that you have done a good job
but you don't believe a single word they're saying
it's time to climb inside of your head
and raise the blinds and clean out all the cob webs
stop pushing all the negative thoughts
to the top of all the things that you are thinking
you need to just believe that you're right
when you think the things you want can come into your life
calm down, reflect and collect your
thoughts now, what was that you thought that
brought down, everything that you had built up now
look out, you will find that it's still there!
don't let your - self be come
the demon - in your head
you can do - better than this!

Activatry

you see them line up on the streets
with your skeptical disbelief
you don't even try to understand what they have to say
roll down your window flip the bird
scream obscenities throw a turd
insensitively throwing derision in their face
you never listen to their calls
you're right they're wrong and that is all
your mind is closed and you will never learn to open it
you say your side will fight for peace
so come forth and state your case
just how is killing people going to solve this bullshit
what you're calling activism
is just our patriotism
we the people are promoting peace
we're tired of seeing this disease
the powerhungry people putting poor into harms way
we understand that there are threats
but history has so many dead
all the fights humanity has had should show us a new way
so tell us how tell us some more
how you propose to win your war
how will your guns and bombs help make us learn to get along
i don't believe you understand
just what it is to lend a hand
perhaps when everything is burning then you'll hear this song
why can't we get along why can't we get along
learn to talk not to kill learn to talk not to kill

Never Enough

your god versus their god
that's exactly what this is
why don't you just admit it
shed that evil layer of skin
come clean with the goals you have
only cowards skew their words
this war that you force us into
is only you flipping us the bird
if we were somewhere near civilized
we would trade our guns for words
but the slaughter will continue
as long as truth will go unheard
society will only run in circles
unless we begin to help each other
as the leaders push selfish agendas
the common folk will always suffer!
as we squander our resources
on killing off our fellow man
we're breeding our new soldiers
and destroying all the land
if we spent the war funds elsewhere
such as education or health
perhaps we could find more solutions
instead of handing out free death
politicians are lying to you
telling you how to think and what to do
their heavy fists are pushing you down
with propaganda in print, video, and sound
their true agenda is hiding behind a cavalcade of meaningless bullshit lies
misdirecting your attention away from the pertinant things!
you pay your taxes for services provided such as blowing up another human being
as we go into debt to pay for mass destruction our citizens don't seem to see anything is going wrong
if our resources were to go to advancement and educate, feed, clothe, and bathe the masses
perhaps there would be a chance for the future!
stand up, fight back
don't let them take your liberties
speak up, talk back
don't let them tell you what to think
never enough power never enough health
never enough to satisfy never enough wealth
never enough killing never enough greed
at the end of the day there's never enough relief

if you got it
gotta gimme the cure
it's about time to fix the problem
if we don't we're gonna be the dead ones
tell me your story
let me know how you've been
what is the issue
pressing you to the edge
how many times will it take to
let it all sink in
what will it take to make you
learn to love and forgive
what makes you want to live in
this life now
how much can you give to win
this life now
it's life now
your life now
grab it by the horns
lift yourself up
take it make it yours
o pen your mind
strive to be
the best you can be

White Coats

don't trust the white coats
they cram it down your throat
they say it's good for you
big pharma pays off the truth
struck by another illness
your body fights for life
disease spreads quick, such sickness
white blood cells quick to strike
you don't think you will make it
hot sweat drips down your face
won't something make it better
your mind drifts out to space
consumed by feverish dreams
you can't tell what is real
body aching, feeling breathless
you don't trust yourself to heal
what can you do to stop it
where is the remedy
you begin feeling desperate
best freinds with the enemy
it might be terminal
this just might be the end
what can you do to stop it
when everything's poisoned
the food that we consume
the water that we drink
the air inside our lungs
it's bad for you and me
another new diagnosis
another new fancy pill
the doctor in cahoots with
all of the pill makers
they pay him off to give you
some new untested drug
let's hope it doesn't kill you
let's hope it kills this bug
grow-ing clo-ser, to the death bed
my last will and test-a ment says
give my body up to sci-ence
chop me up and stu-dy my head
feed me, my pills - they cure, all ills
i'll pay, anything - i'll pay, everything

The All Time Cure
It's hot, so hot, i think i've lost my mind
the steam, blowing, big blank across my eyes
sweat drips, so thick, you're underwater now
i swear, i do declare, that sun is sure beating down
the heat of the day
the blaze of the ray
that wonderful sunshine
it soaks in your skin
wells up from within
makes you feel so fine!
when you're feelin' blue
don't know what to do
if you're stuck in a tight bind
just listen to music
it really soothes it
if you're losing your mind
spin the vinyl, cue the cassete, put on the 8 track
Right now
lis ten to m p 3's on your BLUE TOOTH!
music is the all time cure...

Trust Your Pilot

as we fly, high into the sky
turbulence sets in, feel the shaking fins
will we die, or will we survive
lightning strikes, electrified
way up in the air
feelings of dispair
I must believe...
this tube will persevere
... i trust in our pilot
[solo]
the wind will take us where we need to go [x4]
airstreams pushing us along! [x4]
[solo]
let it take you there [x4]
while you're unaware!
I must believe...
this tube will persevere
all is allright, all is allright, all is allright
everything will be allright
when you fly high in the sky
you can face the end of your life
the end of your life
never be afraid of
never be afraid of life!
