"And these wars they can't be won And these wars they can't be won. And do you want them to go on and on and on? Why split these states, when there can be only one? And must we do as we're told? Must we do as we're told?"

"No religion or mind virus, Is there a hope that the facts will ever find us? Just make sure that you are looking out for number one."

"I, I can't get these memories out of my mind, And some kind of madness has started to evolve, mmm. And I, I tried so hard to let you go, But some kind of madness is swallowing me whole, yeah."

"The wavelength gently grows, Coercive notions re-evolve. A universe is trapped inside a tear, It resonates the core, Creates unnatural laws, Replaces love and happiness with fear."

"Come ride with me through the veins of history. I'll show you a God who falls asleep on the job. And how can we win when fools can be kings? Don't waste your time or time will waste you."

"Another promise, another seed, Another packaged lie to keep us trapped in greed. And all the green belts wrapped around our minds And endless red tape to keep the truth confined. (So come on)They will not force us. They will stop degrading us. They will not control us. We will be victorious. (So come on)"

"And now I have finally seen the light, And I have finally realized what you need."

"Is our secret safe tonight? And are we out of sight? Or will our world come tumbling down? Will they find our hiding place? Is this our last embrace? Or will the walls start caving in?"

"Destroy this city of delusion And break these walls down. And I will avenge And justify my reasons with your blood."

"You trick your lovers that you're wicked and divine, You may be a sinner, but your innocence is mine."

"Strung out, falling from the big time. Welcome to the infinite black skies. Brain cleansed, fractured identity. Fragments and scattered debris."

"I thought I was a fool for no one, But ooh, baby I'm a fool for you. You're the queen of the superficial, And how long before you tell the truth?"

"Life will flash before my eyes So scattered and lost. I want to touch the other side And no one thinks they are to blame. Why can't we see That when we bleed we bleed the same?"

"There's no justice in the world. There's no justice in the world, and there never was."

"Far away, This ship has taken me far away, Far away from the memories Of the people who care if I live or die."

"Best, you've got to be the best. You've got to change the world. And use this chance to be heard, Your time is now."

"Breathe in deep And cleanse away our sins. And we'll pray that there's no God To punish us and make a fuss."

"Follow through, Make your dreams come true. Don't give up the fight, You will be alright. 'Cause there's no one like you in the universe."

"Hopelessly, I'll love you endlessly. Hopelessly, I'll give you everything. But I won't give you up, I won't let you down. And I won't leave you falling If the moment ever comes."

"Now that you know I'm trapped, Sense of elation. You'd never dream of Breaking this fixation.You will squeeze the life out of me."

"There's nowhere left to hide, In no one to confide. The truth burns deep inside And will never die. Lips are turning blue, A kiss that can't renew. I only dream of you My beautiful.Sing for absolution. I will be singing And falling from your grace."

"This is the last time I'll abandon you. And this is the last time I'll forget you. I wish I could.Look to the stars, Let hope burn in your eyes. And we'll love and we'll hate and we'll die. All to no avail, all to no avail."

"And it's time we saw a miracle. Come on it's time for something biblical To pull us through, And pull us through.And this is the end, the end. This is the end Of the world."

"During the struggle they will pull us down, But please, please, let's use this chance to turn things around. And tonight, we can truly say Together we're invincible."

"I've exposed your lies baby. The underneath's no big surprise. Now it's time for changing And cleansing everything To forget your love."

"Stars when you shine, you know how I feel. Scent of the pine, you know how I feel. Yeah, freedom is mine and you know how I feel. It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me,"

"'Cause I want it now, I want it now. Give me your heart and your soul. And I'm breaking out, I'm breaking out. Last chance to lose control."

"Oppose and disagree, Destroy demonocracy."

"Open the skies over me, I am waiting patiently. I'll wait for a sign As conspiracies unwind. Will you slam shut? Or free your mind? Or stay hypnotized?"

"Well, I'm not one to sit and spin Because living well is the best revenge."

"If the storm doesn't kill me, The government will."

"That sugarcane, that tasted good, That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood, Come on, come on, No-one can see you try."

"Houston is filled with promise, Laredo is a beautiful place, Galveston sings like that song that I loved, Its meaning has not been erased."

"And you are the star tonight, Your sun electric, out of sight, Your light eclipsed the moon tonight. Electrolite. You're out of sight."

"I’ve found a way to make you I’ve found a way A way to make you smile. I read bad poetry Into your machine. I save your messages Just to hear your voice."

"They invented a whole new ballgame for all of the other bands to follow whether it was Sonic Youth or the Replacements or Nirvana or Butthole Surfers. R.E.M. staked the claim. Musically, the bands did different things, but R.E.M. was first to show us you can be big and still be cool."

"Nightswimming deserves a quiet night. I'm not sure all these people understand. It's not like years ago. The fear of getting caught, Of recklessness and water. They cannot see me naked. These things, they go away, Replaced by everyday."

""What's the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh. I was brain-dead, locked out, numb, not up to speed. I thought I'd pegged you an idiot's dream, Tunnel vision from the outsider's screen.I never understood the frequency, uh-huh. You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh."

"Now, Andy, did you hear about this one? Tell me, are you locked in the punch? Andy, are you goofing on Elvis? Hey, baby. Are we losing touch?If you believed they put a man on the moon, Man on the moon. If you believed there's nothing up his sleeve, Then nothing is cool"

"I am smitten. I'm the real thing."

"When the day is long And the night, the night is yours alone, When you're sure you've had enough Of this life, well, hang on.Don't let yourself go 'Cause everybody cries. And everybody hurts, Sometimes."

"Mott the Hoople and The Game of Life. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Andy Kaufman in the wrestling match. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah."

"Let's play Twister, let's play Risk. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. See you heaven if you make the list. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah."

"I said your name, I wore it like a badge of teenage film stars Hash bars, cherry mash and tinfoil tiaras, Dreaming of Maria Callas, Whoever she is."

"It's crazy what you could have had, It's crazy what you could have had, I need this, I need this."

"It seems a shame to waste your time on me. It seems a lot to waste your time for me. Left me to love, What it's doing to me."

"You come to me with a bone in your hand You come to me with your hair curled tight You come to me with positions You come to me with excuses Ducked out in a row You wear me out."

"Hey kids, where are you? Nobody tells you what to do, baby. Hey kids, rock and roll, Nobody tells you where to go, baby."

"Baby, instant soup doesn't really grab me, Today I need something more sub, sub, sub, substantial, A can of beans or black-eyed peas, Some Nescafe and ice, A candy bar, a falling star Or a reading from Dr. Seuss."
