The only way I see Get you to look at me I take your phone and smash it into pieces This social networking Is making me insane Your lack of attention is driving me crazy I had a small brain wave On the bus yesterday I'd join that site and follow the mainstream I'll make that friend request Across the internet And fill up your news feed with nothing but bullshit Get yourself online and update your status I bet you think your life is truly gallus Are you worth my time at all, do you even matter? So get yourself online and update your status I checked on my updates Like I do every day Your name popped up, the website said you poked me Is this a sign from you That means you like me too I think I'll click the button, and poke you too Am I becoming like you Am I delusional too Should I be thinking this through So much that I read into All of this stuff is so new So many unusual clues It's hard to know what is true I think I'm becoming like you I think I fell in love The poke became a shove My status says she came down from above We're dating every day On 3D multiplay I'm signed up now, subscription's the only way Get yourself online and update your status I bet you think your life is truly gallus Are you worth my time at all, do you even matter? So get yourself online and update your status Get yourself online and update your status I bet you think your life is truly gallus Are you worth my time at all, do you even matter? So get yourself online and update your status

It's lonely in the wild (x4) I crawled toward the blinding light (It's lonely in the wild) Soul reflected back at me (It's lonely in the wild) Through mists and pain and sounds so bright (It's lonely in the wild) My nerves sang out with ecstasy (It's lonely in the wild) I saw the path through forest glades (It's lonely in the wild) And skies that burned with aching fire (It's lonely in the wild) My body yearned for cooling shades (It's lonely in the wild) Time cut at me like razor wire A soul adrift amidst the storm (It's lonely in the wild) Bloody broken, beaten scarred (It's lonely in the wild) Fragile in this dark charade (It's lonely in the wild) A vessel cracked, a broken shard (It's lonely in the wild) A formless and yet clawing life (It's lonely in the wild) And yet I know what I will be (It's lonely in the wild) Pushing past the mirror's edge (It's lonely in the wild) Soon enough I will be free It's lonely in the wild (x12)

You've got to get away now baby You've got to get away I'm not the kind of guy you need now baby You know I'll never be But you know what this means You know It's tempting to submit to me now baby And let your flesh decide That even though I'm bad news baby Your body can't deny That you know what this means You know I'm pushing in, you're pushing out, this battle tastes so sweet We're bathed in sin, we're crying out, you wanna scream (x2) There's nothing like a sinner baby Who lies the whole night long She tells herself she's doing right maybe She knows she's doing wrong Cos she knows what this means She knows I'm pushing in, you're pushing out, this battle tastes so sweet We're bathed in sin, we're crying out, you wanna scream (x2) But you know what this means You know (x2)

Friend Zone 03:21
The friendship zone is littered with the corpses of the brave Those souls who battled through toward the romantic enclave The realised in time that all their hard work was in vain The friendship zone, those cursed words, a never ending shame You do your best to be the kind of guy she always says She longs to find to be with her, but in the end instead She ignores every effort that you've made on her behalf Then dates the guys she complains about, birds really are so daft We're all stuck in this friendship zone We're all together but we're so alone We're all singing the same bitter tone There's no way out of the friendship zone (x2) She thinks that I'm her counsellor, a great psychologist Expects me to dispense advice against my every wish Her problems could be solved if she just gave me a fair chance She could save me from the zone, that deep and cold expanse We're all stuck in this friendship zone We're all together but we're so alone We're all singing the same bitter tone There's no way out of the friendship zone (x2)

Too many people wake up feeling like the day is done But when I wake I know I'm gonna have a little fun Each day that passes by so fast will never come again It's not about the how's or why's, it's all about the when We live life the way we want We already know we've won We're reaching toward the sun You can join us if you wanna come You ask me why I live this way, why I don't give a damn The answer's pretty simple - I do it because I can You talk as if you think I'm mad but you know in the end You really want to be like me so come along my friend And live life the way we want We already know we've won We're reaching toward the sun You can join us if you wanna come I know that I'm okay I'm meant to be this way There's nothing you can say to make me wanna change (x2) We live life the way we want We already know we've won We're reaching toward the sun You can join us if you wanna come (x2)

Wall Street 04:01
Your methods of control Are obvious (x3) Your lack of soul Is dangerous (x3) You want it all, to have it all Control it all, deconstruct it all You dig a hole and toss us in You make us pay for your every whim You take hopes and tear them into shreds You alone you're profiting from death Your whole life is vile You cause pain and you just stand and smile At suffering and agony You laugh at hate and misery The only way you'd stop the pain Is if you thought you stood to gain And so we're down again We're down again We're beaten down again So you can make some cash Stall the crash A true hero of men You take hopes and tear them into shreds You alone you're profiting from death Your whole life is vile You cause pain and you just stand and smile At all the victims of your crimes The ones who paid for your designs Whose lives are worthless in your eyes Your grateful thanks was to despise You're a psychopath in a well cut suit A murderer Who cannot shoot You crush us all under your boot Our hard work all becomes your loot You take hopes and tear them into shreds You alone you're profiting from death Your whole life is vile You cause pain and you just stand and smile You take cut and cut us into shreds You alone you're profiting from death Your whole life is vile You see our tears and you just stand and smile

You think you're so cool with your beard and your glasses You think you're so unique but you're one of the masses You stand with your mates and you sneer at the punters The fact you're still alive is a never ending wonder (You're) hobo-snobbin' your way out of the mainstream (x4) You try so hard but you're nothing but a sad fake You dress yourself down but you're damn sure it's a known make Your clothes are scruffy but they're made to be that way Your innocent disguise is just a ploy to get laid (You're) hobo-snobbin' your way out of the mainstream (x4) It's such a waste of time to even know you I think I'll find a window to look through It's got more substance than you'll ever have mate And to that fact, this song I dedicate (You're) hobo-snobbin' your way out of the mainstream (x4)

Oh no There is nothing that we don't know Tip toe Taking photographs on tiny phones I see before me A house of ivory and gold and precious stones While we are starving for our democracy They tear the meat straight from our bones Now now We don't tolerate speaking out Shut down Now you'll never let out a sound Brainwave Propaganda we'll procreate Just wait We'll erase hostility Try to escape from this place that I'm in cause I don't want to face this inquisition (x4)

Giving clouds to silver linings In our eyes the hope is shining For love our souls are surely pining The fates we thread before us twining We know you and everything you do Cause we love you We wish you felt it too We will kill you We have to see this through It's human nature Survival of the Few Death is not a new prediction The path is fixed in one direction Venture forth with no conviction The truth I find is only fiction We know you and everything you do Cause we love you We wish you felt it too We will kill you We have to see this through It's human nature Survival of the Few Emotion doesn't have a purpose Factions rising to the surface We throw ourselves into the furnace Sacrifice completely worthless We know you and everything you do Cause we love you We wish you felt it too We will kill you We have to see this through It's human nature Survival of the Few Giving clouds to silver linings In our eyes the hope is shining For love our souls are surely pining The fates we thread before us twining We know you and everything you do Cause we love you We wish you felt it too We will kill you We have to see this through It's human nature Survival of the Few

We wanna write you a new song We wanna hear you sing along You know the night is still so young We wanna see you have some fun Cos it's so easy to clap your hands with us Your body wants to move you wanna dance with us We wanna write you a new song Something simple but something strong We wanna sing you a new song We wanna hear you sing along Cos it's so easy to lose yourself to us Your body wants to move you wanna dance with us So let's dance let's dance let's dance let's dance together Let's move our bodies to the beat forever We wanna write you a new song Give in Give yourself to us (Dance let's dance let's dance let's dance together) You know you can't resist your heartbeat wants to join with us (Dance let's dance let's dance let's dance forever) So let it beat itself into the new millenium (Dance let's dance let's dance let's dance together Let your spirit melt into our music paragon (Dance let's dance let's dance let's dance let's) We wanna write you a new song
