CHORUS
Alone on a moving floor on a moving floor
Alone on a moving floor and we can't stand up anymore
I believe it's worse now than in the 60's
There's no dissent, while the government's
Taking our liberties
And up in Congress there's shaking knees- as they fall into
line
And our unelected president thinks- everything is just fine
And the world machine is almost complete- for their perpetual
war
Like a modern Nazi Germany-
CHORUS
I believe its worse now than its ever been
I believe its worse now than we can even conceive
Now it no longer pays to be- so quiet and aloof
And all your efforts to remain free- and your hopes to find
the truth
Are going to crumble underneath- and the world that you once
knew
Will be just distant history- that no one will teach

Like
A Wave (MP3 @ 4,180KB) |
What if
Hitler had the bomb?
And lasers up in space
That's the kind of road we're on
Denying it won't make it go away
CHORUS
Like a wave heading for the mainland
Like a wave heading straight at you
A tidal wave picking up momentum
And like a wave it's going to break soon
When all are rights are long gone
And television tells us what to say
We'll never see it coming on
Its never news when you're in a police state
CHORUS

3. God
Damn Mistake |
God
Damn Mistake (MP3 @ 4,056KB) |
What reason
do we need to go to war?
Seems like we don't need reasons anymore.
Bend down kiss their feet on Big Oil's floor.
And blow your troubles away
CHORUS
It's a god damn mistake
One we're dying to make
God damn mistake but we're making it
Anyway
Drive your tanks across the sand
And bring those fighters in, it's a perfect plan
Cause you only have to kill one man
Doesn't matter who else get blown away
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Look through the crosshairs, what do you see?
You see the eyes of the world looking back terrified at you
and me

4. Try
Not To Try |
Try
Not To Try (MP3 @ 4,875KB) |
Once in
a moment I saw what the answer should be
Then in a moment it all turned around against me
Everyone knows that the eyes of our nation are blind
But while we're not looking there's something that's creeping
up behind
CHORUS
We've been riding so high in the sky
Broadcasting all of our cheap lies
Hoping the dream doesn't die
As we beat out its life and try not to try
I'm not the way that I want to be all of the time
Something beneath the skin seems to be climbing outside
And everyone knows that we can't change a thing that's all
fine
Still while we're not changing there's something that's reaching
for the light
CHORUS
And were watching the world flying by
Filling the air with our deadly lies
Hoping the air doesn't die
As we choke out its life and try to try
Everyone knows that our presidents dangerous and vile
Taking back yesterday bludgeoning us with his crooked smile
CHORUS
We've been writing our names in the sky
Letting the air fill with corporate smiles
Hoping we see everything fine as we tear out our eyes
Entertained by our world as it dies
Trying to salvage our own lives
Hoping the sun will still rise when we turn out the lights
And we try not to try
How long can we
Try not to try

Placebo
(MP3 @ 2,599KB) |
Hey watch
what happens here when I close my eyes
Can you feel yourself disappearing?
You're heading out somewhere that you won't arrive
Bodysurfing a feeling
Flying now through the underground and
Not making any sound and not paying any attention
You're lost in yourself and you won't be found
Somebody gave you the wrong directions
CHORUS
You're sure of the cure that you took
And the things they read into that book
Sure of the cure sure of the cure that you took
In your little black book
Now the bodies are all piling up
In need of medical attention
You've got the magic touch to save yourself from us
Must be divine intervention
Now the doctor picks the sheet up
Says boy better lift your feet up
You're getting the special attention
He's all set to buy you a place in the sky
If you'll only provide him with your pension
CHORUS

6. Guts |
Guts
(MP3 @ 5,380KB) |
What's that
they were saying?
You knew it was a lie
Open their mouths and cave in
As they do the backbone slide
Their world is so convincing
Cause you saw it on the TV
If their world is so convincing
How come it don't convince you or me?
Ch It takes guts to speak out
When everybody says you're wrong
It takes guts to stand up
When everybody says you should be sitting down
What do you want from your world?
You just want something real
What do you see around you?
Nothing that you can feel
What you should you do about it?
When you can't do anything
Maybe insides the answer
Better let you spirit ring
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Will you do everything they say?
Don't let your conscience get in the way
These times are so trying
And they're trying everything
To keep your brain dying
To keep you from thinking
These times are so scary
And fear is their favorite tool
To keep you from asking questions
About the things that terrify you
CHORUS

7. Anthem |
Anthem
(MP3 @ 4,727KB) |
Go now before
I loose control
And nothing we say or do will matter
We've seen the way this world could end
And still we keep going through the clatter
But there's no way we'll ever get it straight
While they make us play this all inclusive anthem
No words could be as dangerous
As the ones that we're not saying
All this and everything you are
Bleeds into the game they've got us playing
But there's no way we'll ever get it straight
While they make us play this all inclusive anthem
