We Will Go 02:26
WE WILL GO I have seen the forecast and my mom's dressed in black The books have told her babies always ride in back But she wanted me to see the show We got in the car and headed towards the grey.. We were headed towards the great unknown When we reached the end we found that we are all alone When we go. I've invited protesters, they're fighting to make history And the drifters, wanderers..they're living life for the journey And we'll write a book before we go We will write a book so that we have something.. We will have something that we can show Some proof that we have lived a life before we go We will go...

HELLO, GOODBYE We've waited too long...they said it's not the right time So we'll go anyways and they'll get left behind Headed out, making noise in all directions..singing Hello, Goodbye Never settled for the path they made before us..singing Hello, Goodbye Wooooooo...they sing...Woooooo The ones on the hill remain as monuments But they never stood still they lead the movements Headed out, making noise in all directions...singing Hello, Goodbye We left our baggage so they have something to sit on...singing Hello, Goodbye Just because we're leaving doesn't mean we're on vacation...singing Hello, Goodbye We found new ways and they won't know what they are missing..singing Hello, Goodbye Wooooooo...they sing...Woooooo

DEATH TO THE FAIRYTALE Well he's just a boy Tramping towards the trees with bullets BB gun and mom's pearl necklace He plugs their bleeding eyes with pearls that gaze At his mother's grave and when he returns She's taken their bodies away Well she's just a girl Marching towards a field of caskets Bleeding squirrels and two shoe boxes She cries for all the lives that she can't save Trading pearls for band-aids And dad's too busy to explain Still drinking the war away And one day that boy will meet His angel in the cemetery She'll dig her knife in deep And watch him She'll watch him bleed

IMPOSABLE APOCALYPSE My eyes cry tears filled up with amphetamine salt Couldn't pay attention to how you felt Oh the earth was hurting but we were too busy figurin out How to fix the humans, now the earth lives without And few remain picking up coke bottles adapted to the sugar, synthetic in vials Driven crazy in silence they turn up the dials Of broken stereos lining the curbs for miles On the day of doom Look around the room No one's comes for you They cry For god They've lied To us SING

I'm a Tiger 04:10
I'M A TIGER Girl don't wanna hear you complain. Please change. Your demeanor Suck suck suck it up Suck it, smile Vacuum cleaner Push her around, girl she's got it easy Oh no..now she's angry Oh god..that girl she must be crazy Cob webs, old threads Centuries in this skirt Kitty cat...callin you to flirt Just because I'm woman now you're asking where I'm going Well I went to make some music Now they ask which man around me wrote it Not a pussy, kitty cat call...I am a tiger A strong human and a fighter. Babe....you look so tired Did all our efforts to get noticed? Did they make or break us.. Cant I...just enjoy the ride? Without excuse to get somewhere? Well maybe we'll get there And this all will feel better Boys lack respect every time they make a dare Makes me cringe every time I hear "grow a pair." If courage is the quality found in masculinity? Then why are you fighting me..call that insecurity...damn Alls I gotta say is god damn Well I was just a young girl Oh such a young girl I covered up my face...put my body in its place I held out...I'll hold out a little longer My body may be weak but my mind is growing stronger He said there's better ways, better time and place to bring it up Either way..I still think that you won't give a fuck Well I don't give a fuck..they may call me a monster But I was born this way.. I was born a tiger. Not a pussy, kitty cat call...I am a tiger A strong human and a fighter.

EYE OF THE PASSENGER Passenger open, close your eyes Weary, we travel through the night Passenger contemplate your life Passing each moment to arrive And I.... am taking time, to drift through worldly wonders And I... Lose track of time And I... am taking time to bathe in sounds and colors And I'll.... Soak in the vibe Passenger open, close your eyes Choose what to see, you pull the blinds Passenger stop to see the signs And all the ones we've left behind And I... won't close my eyes..Can't miss the sky change colors It shines... Both day and night Cause time... It pulls the light that counts our days in numbers So I.... will live and die. Never find our way Gotta find our way Never find our way Gotta find our way We'll keep searching Never find our way Gotta find our way Never find our way Gotta find our way Time keeps moving Never find our way Gotta find our way Never find our way Gotta find our way...

PERENNIAL BYGONES The man he said he had a shadow It drug the man into a battle And when he died they took the body And left his shadow, hung in the tree How many times have I asked the question why? How many years have I held this pain inside? Are you insane to think that things will change with time? Are you to blame for feeling rage, compelled to fight? Cause it's not right The boy shot down without a reason Like the girl he didn't want that kind of attention And if one day one is president When they take the throne.. Will we rise up with them? You know... we've pave these roads. But the change... the change is slow How many times do you lie awake at night? How many days have you lost your appetite? Is it a phase, can you erase sins of this kind? Will we remain, forgotten names..swept up by time? Swept up by time.. The answer is blowin in the wind But the questions, they pull us in all directions The dove washed ashore, she slept inside the current She learned to sing, but never learned to listen You know.. we've paved these roads. But the change... the change is slow Old man take a look at my life I'm not like you...no. Old man take a look at my life I'm not like you..no. (repeats until end)
