don’t ask me no questions
And I’ll tell you no lies
I’ll pretend I don’t see
through your little disguise
You offer us comfort
And security too
You stick to the shadows
To conceal what you do, but I can see you
2
Don’t give us your bullshit
Your crocodile tears
Cuz we’re not your victims
Don’t prey on our fears
We’re the ultimate power
and the consummate sound
Kill Minus Nine
Will bring it it all down, burn it all down
REFRAIN
Don’t tell me you’re sorry
Don’t ask for forgiveness
You talk about justice/progress
But that’s not your business

In Transit

I’ve got this feeling like the train just pulled away
that my life just left me at the station
I used to seize the hell out of every day
Now I’m paralyzed with hesitation
2
There’s people talking but I can’t hear what they say
It’s like their mouths are moving…but in slow motion
I used to seize the hell out of every day
Now I’m sickened by this strange emotion
REFRAIN
(A and last)
This can’t happen to me
This can’t happen to us
There has to be some big mistake here
The world outside has slipped away
And I’ve lost my way – I’m
Lost in transit (repeat)
(B)
I Can’t tell which way is up
I Can’t tell which way is out
I only know that my heart is racing
The world outside is rushing by
In the blink of an eye – and I’m
Lost in transit
…(And I can’t help feeling)

We don’t belong with the unwashed masses…oh no!
We don’t belong with all the rest
We can’t be happy with subsistence you know…
We’re all entitled to the best
2
We don’t subscribe to limitations…oh no!
We don’t believe in common sense
We need our instant gratification
And we don’t offer recompense
3
We don’t look too far into the future…oh no!
No when the present is so fine
On the small screen I survey my kingdom, you know
And all I see is labelled “Mine”, “Mine”, “Mine”
REFRAIN
Whooa We live the livestyle of the rich and famous!
Whooa We live the livestyle of the rich and famous!
Whooa We live the livestyle of the rich and famous!
Whooa We live the livestyle of the rich and famous!

I swear I wanted to respect you
Who thought that this would go so far
It kills me this is what we’ve come to
I guess it’s part of who we are
2
We tried to bring to bring two hearts together
Instead I find we’re worlds apart
I gave you all I had to offer
Still I was doomed right from the start
REFRAIN
I remember the last time
You walked away
That you walked away
I remember the first time
I saw you cry
When I close my eyes
I remember the heartache
I dropped the phone
Now I’m all alone
I remember the first time
I heard you lie
That I heard you lie

Insurrection
04:17

1
An empty house with the lights on
An empty suit with a checkbook
A child cries in a darkened room
But the pigs dont even look
where did it all go oh so wrong
How did our people come to this
2
An angry voice on the airwaves
An earnest face at a lecture
A student tries to discern the truth
But the teachers aren’t sure
where did it all go oh so wrong
How did our people come to this
3
An empty pledge with a handshake
A hollow man with a blank look
A child cries in a darkened room
But the pigs dont even look
where did it all go oh so wrong
How did our people come to this
(REFRAIN)
An amazing feat of self deception
Just put your head in the sand
Make believe there is no insurrection
Your judgement is at hand

Voodoo

1
your eyes
like two laser beams
two red hot coals
that burn in my dreams
your voice
is a hurricane
like a tempest that flays me
with pleasure and pain
I can’t think
you put a spell on me
You put in the twist
In my twisted reality
I can’t blink
or you may be gone
and while my heart is a slave
you can set me free
2
Your arms
They encircle me
Like A fortress of strength
And stability
Every night
That I spend with you
You imprison me
With your voodoo…
REFRAIN
And when we meet in another life
may the gods be kind, may the time be right
don’t let me founder
don’t drag me under
a chill that cuts me like a knife
like the tides that sweep the beach at night
if it takes forever
I will remember
