Desensitized

Here I am again up at some strange hour
Waiting for the time to slowly be devoured
Off in the distance there’s some sort of resistance
And the clouds are on their way
Beyond comprehension another lost invention
All we really want is to get your attention
Even though we seem aware
don’t be fooled we don’t care we don’t care
Moving right along another day is gone
Nothing means anything when everything is wrong
The cure for love is to kill the heart
The solution for the end is to find the start
Traded in your dreams for unanswered prayers
All we do is complain about life isn’t fair
Even though we seem aware
don’t be fooled we don’t care we don’t care
Even though we seem aware
don’t be fooled we don’t care we don’t care
Going through the motions
Why are we always so foolish that we don’t believe?
The truth when it’s right in front of our eyes
Could it be that just maybe we are
Desensitized
Even though we seem aware
don’t be fooled we don’t care we don’t care
Even though we seem aware
don’t be fooled we don’t care we don’t care
Beyond comprehension another lost invention
All we really want is to get your
Attention

Unconditional Love
02:28
|
|||
I don’t believe you but I love you anyway
I no longer trust anything you say
No need to speak I can see it in your eye
All you have for me is a head full of lies
Don’t do this to me no not now
Finally eventually I figured out how
This broken world keeps on turning around
And some how all the people keep they’re feet on the ground
Lies Lies Lies
I don’t believe you but I love you anyway
I’ve been lost in the desert out here in Bombay
We won’t fall back and we won’t fall down
We’ll just have to wait until we hit the ground
Everybody wants what they didn’t earn
Evolution’s taking it’s final last turn
And the problem is we will never learn
We’ll cut ourselves if we don’t burn
Lies Lies Lies
Lies Lies Lies
I don’t believe you but I love you anyway
The magic’s inside save it for another day
Move on move up move out
things have changed and I’m having my doubts
I try not to try anymore
You’re always on track and you’re keeping score
I told you once twice and three times before
is it me you love or is it the war
Lies Lies Lies
Lies Lies Lies
Lies Lies Lies
I don’t believe you but I love you anyway
I no longer trust anything you say
No need to speak I can see it in your eye
All you have for me is a head full of lies
Don’t do this to me no not now
Finally eventually I figured out how
This broken world keeps on turning around
And some how all the people keep they’re feet on the ground
Lies Lies Lies
Lies Lies Lies
Lies Lies Lies
Lies Lies Lies
Lies Lies Lies

What Would You Say
02:58
|
|||
What would you say if you didn’t have voice
Would you open your eyes if you didn’t have a choice
And what would you do if you life was a dream
Nothing is real or what it seems oh
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know oh I don’t know
And what would become of if there wasn’t a sky
Just a black hole with emptiness and lies
And what would you run from if there’s nothing to fear
Would you turn around and stay would you disappear
And what would you do if the ocean was gone
Everything is OK everything is all wrong
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know oh I don’t know
What would you feel if nothing could be felt
Would you want to be alive and deal with what you’ve been dealt
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know oh I don’t know
What would you say if you didn’t have voice
Would you open your eyes if you didn’t have a choice
What would you do if you life was a dream
Nothing is real or what it seems oh
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know oh I don’t know

Can't Get Away
03:15
|
|||
If there ever was another way
a language I could speak or something I could say
An open door a place in time
save your thoughts ah never mind
No one cares any more
Hurry it up move it along
If it’s fact I’m certain it’s wrong
I’m moving away there’s no place to go
You can’t get away from the world
From the world you know
What you thought you thought you thought you had
Nothing left now only a fading fad
Was that someone that I use to know
Losing there head to the television show
People these days they have no mind
Everything revolves around a lack of time
Hurry it up move it along
If it’s fact I’m certain it’s wrong
I’m moving away there’s no place to go
You can’t get away from the world
From the world you know
Born to serve and breed disease
it’s hard anymore to have sympathy
I had dreams to rescue and save
but I’m lost in the shuffle I became
I became a slave
Hurry it up move it along
If it’s fact I’m certain it’s wrong
I’m moving away there’s no place to go
You can’t get away from the world
From the world you know
If there ever was another way
a language I could speak or something I could say
An open door a place in time
save you thoughts oh never mind

Broken Heart
02:30
|
|||
You broke my heart and you have the other half and I ain’t gonna leave until I get it back. You want to fall in love, well ok let’s go, move it along, hit the road. All is well, life is good, we got it all, the impossible could. I’ll hold your hand, let you cry on demand, even let you think I’m a terrible man.
Is it all you thought it ever would be, what’s wrong babe don’t you love me?
You broke my heart and you have the other half and I ain’t gonna leave until I get it back. Over the years I’ve given in, given up, faked and pretend. No longer will I dance with your dishonesty, your clouded perception and your un-clarity. You’ve driven me mad, up the walls I have, lost my sanity. You broke my heart and you have the other half and I ain’t gonna leave until I get it back. You want me to trust, believe what you say, everything changes everyday. How is it, I am not to be concerned after everything you’ve supposedly learned. There’s a disease inside your mind, that criticizes everything all of the time.
You broke my heart and you have the other half and I ain’t gonna leave until I get it back. You want to fall in love, well OK let’s go, move it along, hit the road. All is well life is good we got it all, the impossible could.

Why are you doing this to me
You broke my heart and you have the other half, and I ain’t gonna leave until I get it back You want me to trust believe what you say everything changes everyday How is it I am not to be concerned after everything you’ve supposedly learned There’s a disease inside you mind, that criticizes everything all of the time
How can you live like this
You broke my heart and you stole a part now there’s nothing left for you and me to start Now there’s nothing left for you and me now there is nothing left for you Now there is nothing

Your Not Around
04:31
|
|||
Why is it so hard when your not around
Why is it so hard when your not around
I looked up to the sky I looked under the ground
I looked every where, No where to be found
Why is it so hard when you not around
Every day is a new day this is true
What difference does it make if it’s with out you
Time is so bizarre if you leave stay fail or go far
Better or worse it’s hard to say
Things can change and rearrange
Become different than they were
Sometimes there good sometimes they ain’t
Sometimes there devils and others are saints
And it doesn’t really matter to me
I know what the future holds
Every day is a new day this is true
What difference does it make if it’s with out you
Oh and the future turns into the past
And the present moments never last
I use to care and question everything
Now all I want is to sleep and dream
Dream dream dream
Every day is a new day this is true
What difference does it make if it’s with out you
And I still ask my self
Why is it so hard when you not around
Why is it so hard when you your not around
I looked up to the sky I looked under the ground
I looked every where no where to be found
Why is it so hard when your not around
When your not around

Cellophane Girl
04:08
|

I woke up in the afternoon dazed deranged and confused
I came to the conclusion I will draw don’t bother me with nothings your fault Cellophane girl friend somehow you always pretend
You act as if nothing is wrong and behind my back you’re moving on
You make me out to be such fool and you’re the one who breaks all the rules
I wish you would leave me alone
I know he doesn’t know were on the phone
If I don’t pick up you will leave me one, two & three
Messages I don’t want to hear a scared little girl in fear
If it hurts you know that true and somewhere I know that you do
I wish you would leave me alone
I know he doesn’t know were on the phone
I wish you would leave me alone
I know he doesn’t know were on the phone
God damn it you just don’t understand you got yourself another man
Feelings that no one should feel dreams that are way to real
No matter what you think I should see baby I will never believe
You were made for me you were made for me you were made for me
You were made for me
Ah yeah
I woke up in the afternoon dazed, deranged, and confused
The telephone finally stops peace and quite as the stomach drops
How on earth could this be true next to me in bed I found you
And I wish you would leave me alone, I know he doesn’t know your in my home And I wish you would just leave me alone

Hypochondria
04:15
|
|||
Woke up late for work today Jumped out of bed
and I called on the phone he said
Don’t worry this time I called Jon to fill your shoes hit snooze,
Go back to bed forget about it for today take some time
Get some rest get what ever it is off your chest
Oh thank you I really need a day off
Alright
Hypochondria got me so far down so far so far so far down
I can’t get out from under my own frown
I hung up the phone and looked at the bed
nobody cares if I sleep instead
I don’t feel as if I have the time
to many other things on my mind
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Ah Ah Ah Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Hypochondria got me so far down so far so far so far down
I can’t get out from under my own frown
10 miles out from the nearest town
I’m looking searching but what have I found
I’m lost upstairs no one cares
It makes me sad lonely and mad
Oh no yes OK I guess it’s so hard to say
And there ain’t no one to blame for this ridiculous game
Except for myself except for myself except for myself
Hypochondria got me so far down so far so far so far down
I can’t get out from under my own frown
Oh my god
Hypochondria got me so far down, so far, so far, so far down
So far so far so far down so far so far so far so far down
