"Back Inside My Head"
back inside my head there is an atom bomb
just dying to go off at the dumb things that you talk about
back
inside my head there is a very old man
just trying to understand what the fuck is going on around him
inside my head
inside my head
back inside my head there is a place for you
that knows just what to do when you're standing right in front of me
back
inside my head there is a tiny little boy
just fighting for the time to enjoy the joy of being alive
inside my head
inside my head
Back inside my head there is something going on
I can't put my finger on it but I think it's coming after me it's
Inside my head

"Aging Youth"
Back when you were around
We used to run this town
Then you got a little older
A little higher off the ground
Work a little harder now
Till you figure out
It
will
run you down
So you move to the city
Just to try your luck
But it swallows you whole
And it leaves you stuck
You're increasingly tired
You need to quit or get fired
To better use your time
Before you soon expire
So you start again
And the same thing keeps happening
Now your body aches
And you wish you were young again
We act our age
It's an outrage
You're a little bit wiser
You're the head supervisor
Mr. know it all
Used to be none the wiser
You're a little bit older
Got a chip on your shoulder
At your funeral, I hope someone says
What a good shareholder
So you start again
And the same thing keeps happening
Now your body aches
And you wish you were young again
We act our age
It's an outrage

Do you feel alone and overwhelmed?
Highly suggest that you try our product out
Do you find yourself looking for a way
To find someone else to express the things you want to say?
Stop thinking, Stop feeling
Stop thinking, Stop feeling
You're tuned to us and we're tuning out
We want you feeling right at ease
Your complacency is of our top priorities

"Rusty Nail"
Imagine some thousand years from now
Humanity might be replaced
And every breath we take
Will leave us with a metallic taste
And we'll watch as our best laid plans
Proceed to blow up in our face
Our purpose will shrivel
Like the dreams we could not help
But waste
It's kind of hard to be a part of
And get by in
A world that keeps doubting me
There's just too many people
Trying to speak
So I just keep on shouting and shouting
And shouting
Yeah
Is there anybody out there
Who might be willing to talk some sense?
No matter how I try
I can't seem to get off of this fence
Though we all disagree
There's no reason that we can't be friends
And relax in a state of mind
Where everything is just so intense
Is anybody listening to me?

"Deleter"
millions of people
designing me
deciding me
and I can't break free
millions of people
in spite of me
misguiding me
and I can't think straight
Interrupted communication
on this the day of your scheduled program
this concludes report on current condition
we may never resume transmission
brilliant idea
benign delivery
blame an injury
it can never be that way again

"Downman"
Subtracting away the unbearable things in a day
That I just can't wish away
I'm doing A-OK
As far as it goes when I'm trying to see the light
I'm doing everything I can
To get it right
But something I see has me feeling a certain way
If I could only convey
When I decide that I may
(All the people say
)
Don't bring me down, man
find it in your heart
To erase this beauty mark
And embrace the truly dark
We can engage, we can embark
We will enrage, we will be smart
Open your heart

"Uncontrollable Urges"
It needs it, lives and breathes it
No telling how far it reaches
It turns them all into leeches
Little tiny expendable creatures
It rules you as it pleases
It's your own personal Jesus
Reach out, grab faith and squeeze it
Give me something I can believe in
Why, oh why, don't you spend another dime on me?
Bless us for the gifts it brings us
While it ties us, lifts and strings us
Turns us all into little diseases
Keeps us warm in its folds and creases
Why, oh why, don't you spend another dime on me, honey?
Time is time, but time is not a good time without the money
Feels better when it purges
All those uncontrollable urges
Money

"Slow Race"
Hey is there something behind me
or something on your mind
You seem so distracted
Or in some kind of mood
What happened to you?
Do you a have thought that keeps
gnawing
I can see it crawling
Around and you ought not to
Drown in it now
Just let it all out
Hey while I have you this seems like the time
To remind you of our one-time offer
You'll feel so alive
Just $9.95
We guarantee you'll be right there where you want to be
We will suppliment your misery for a fee
Can't do it for free
it's a long way down
there is no way out
it's a slow race now
time to go, set ready
i know
it's all part of the show
It's a long way down
there is no way out
i know
it's temporary
these feelings
feeding on your soul
it's imperative now
they're revealing
just who's in control
In god we all trust
We'll kill if we must
We've got nothing left to defend
The powers that be
All sit back and watch us pretend

"Possession"
Imagine some thousand years from now humanity might be replaced
By a breathtaking view of a mountain of consumer waste
And all that remains is one man for the good of the race
And he calculates and measures the worth of his treasures he's scattered all over the place
If anyone could ask him his thoughts he'd be doing just fine
He'd shout from his mountaintop
Everything I see is all mine, all mine
There ain't nobody out there so no reason do build a defense
No matter how he tries he just can't seem to make any friends
Though some disagreed in the past with his decree
"anyone who's not me will be thrown to the sea"
It's relaxing to see just one man can achieve such an ambitious degree of his own world piece

"Dead Friends"
drag me down this rabbit hole, don't leave me stranded
shuffle off this mortal coil empty handed
Your luck ran out, you're cashing in
You bought the farm, it's looking grim
when you're alone, do you ever think
you are just another one that
used to be
when I was young I'd live forever
now I wonder just when we all will be together
underground, locked away
rotting out, A-OK
Until that day, we walk around
Everyday, safe and sound
Matter of time until you see that my dead friends are you and me
When you're alone
What do you think about?
All my best friends are dead
Matter of time until you see that my dead friends are you and me
=====================================================

Thought

"Thought"
I had a thought
Though some folks might call it a vision
Came from a mind
Encased in its own personal prison
All day I'm somewhere breathing
As long as my heart's still beating
Days pass, changing of seasons
Move too fast, then time almost freezes
I heard that another one's gone again
I had a thought
How lovely it is to be thinking
If you love me, reach out
And touch me while I am still blinking
All day I'm somewhere breathing
As long as my heart's still beating
Days pass, changing of seasons
Move too fast, then time almost freezes
I heard that another one's gone again
Can't help feeling this way
I'm afraid for my day
Can't allow it to spread
You've got to bury your dead
Oh it fills me with dread
You've got to bury your dead
Can't help feeling this way
I'm afraid for my day
