Lyrics
A New Low
This is a new low
Were you reaching for the gutter?
Well you certainly got there
But you should be ashamed of yourself
To sell a few stacks of papers
Made an enemy of the other
Crossed the line, crossed the line
We don't know why we came here tonight
Thoughts collide, worlds collide
We don't know why we read it online
Say what you've got to say
And then please shut your mouth and walk away
Cos we're tired of the hate bombs
Dropped from a cowardly distance
Breathing controversy like it's air
Dining on others despair
Crossed the line, crossed the line
We don't know why we came here tonight
Thoughts collide, worlds collide
We don't know why we read it online
We don't know why we came here tonight
We don't know why we came here tonight
(So full of hate)
Never had no trouble paying the rent
(Don't know what to do with that)
Food on the table money to spend
(So full of hate)
Best education that money could buy
(Don't know what to do with that)
All they did was fill you full of fear and lies
(So full of fear)
There's fear in the city so you're not alone 99 problems?
Get a new scapegoat We've got to deal with that
You cut me off, you're a phantom limb
You're a part of me, I'm a part of you
Might be comforting except for the pain I'm in
You cut me off, you're a phantom limb
I feel your presence in everything
Can't sleep at night cos I'm scared of dreams
No one tells me what's happening
You cut me off, you're a phantom limb
You're a part of me, I'm a part of you
Might be comforting except for the pain I'm in
It's been worse for me since I learned the truth
I don't want to feel like I'm chasing you
Every body says that I'm being a fool
I don't know what I wanna do
You cut me off, you're a phantom limb
You're a part of me, lying in bed with him
That's not comforting, no, but that's what is happening
Following the ghosts of memories
This city is like a cemetery
For past lives, what used to be
You can't help it but you're haunting me
Like a dreamer trapped in a dream
I can't awake from fantasy
Now it's so dark and I can't help it
I am falling in
You can't cut off a memory
Can't cut off a memory
You cut me off but I'm memory
It don't seem right, but it may still be
It hurt inside to let the killer go free
Numbed it all with the evil weed
Jack-knifed but I'm cauterised
Didn't feel the maniacal twist inside
Tell me about your dreams last night?
It didn't feel good I'm not gonna lie
You cut me off you're a phantom limb
You're a part of me, part of everything
That's not comforting, no, but that's what is happening
He read it in a magazine
A vision of the future obscene
Soon enough when the world begins resembling
It's all too late
As if once he thought of it
Somebody was bound to realise it
Don't you know when you open up Pandora's box
There's no closing it?
It's right in front of me
The life I was gonna lead
There isn't much hope for it now
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Now war's not fought for victory
It's just a process to destabilise things
Just a means to an end while they play that lonely game
Behind closed doors
Now nobody reads the magazines
And the shops are filled with vending machines
I wander through near empty streets
Where no one speaks
It's all 2D
And there's no complexity
Just the right and the wrong of things
So it isn't hard to obey
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I wish that I could see it all in black and white
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I wish that I could make you feel alive
But it's too late to try, try, try
Give me the rhythm
I'll give you my soul
Give me the rhythm
I'll swallow it whole
I saw you watching
Standing over there
I saw you watching
I like the way you stare
Give me the rhythm
(Give me the rhythm)
Give me the rhythm
(Give me the rhythm)
Give me the rhythm
I'll swallow it whole
The lights go up and the curtains come down
The music has stopped and you're not around
(Where did you go?)
Nowhere to be found
So give me the rhythm
Our eyes connected
Across the great divide
You saw right through me
You saw into my mind
You felt the hunger
The fever in the song
You pulled me under
Underneath the tide
The lights go up and the curtains come down
The music has stopped and you're not around
(Where did you go?)
Nowhere to be found
So give me the rhythm
Give me the rhythm
Give me the rhythm
Give me the rhythm
Give me the rhythm – ooh-hoo
Give me the rhythm (Give me the rhythm)
Give me the rhythm (Give me the rhythm)
Give me the rhythm I'll swallow it whole
(Give me the rhythm) Give me the rhythm
Give me the rhythm (Give me the rhythm)
Give me the rhythm (Give me the rhythm)
Give me the rhythm I'll swallow it whole
You say they're doing you wrong
That you don't belong
But you can't always get what you want
Complaining, well I'm just as frustrated
But what have you done?
Gave up before you'd begun
Been working too hard
Got nothing to show
One step at a time
Don't let go
Take it as it comes
It's all we can do
Get up and carry on
Oh Lord they keep on twisting that knife
You keep moving but you don't seem to get anywhere
Well who said that this would be fair?
Every body's trying to steer their way through this life
It don't matter who's wrong or who's right
Take the good with the bad
The smooth with the rough
You just do what you can
Hope that its good enough
Take it as it comes
It's all we can do
Get up and carry on
Take it as it comes
Got to be strong
Whatever comes along
You must believe things will turn out fine
Take it as it comes
It's all we can do
Get up and carry on
Take it as it comes
Got to be strong
Whatever comes along
Take it as it comes
(Take it as it comes)
Take it as it comes, take it as it comes
(Take it as it, take it as it, take it as it comes)
This is what it feels like waiting
Will I ever run out of patience?
Scarlet's violence is hard to take
But it's all that we've known for so long we can't say
Our lives ran in parallel lines
Until that's all we've got inside
It's who we are now
And you can't go back home
This is what it feels like waiting
Trying not to run out of patience
Violet's shy but I think that she's kind
Emerald's getting jealous with her beautiful eyes
Our lives ran in parallel lines
Until that's all we've got inside
It's who we are now
And you can't go back home
And you can't go back home
And you can't go back home
And you can't go back
Our lives ran in parallel lines
Until that's all we've got inside
It's who we are now
And you can't go back home
And you can't go back home
And you can't go back home
I was holding out a hope
That you would fight for me
I was hoping you might see
All the things I've done for you
Standing at the edge
Hoping I don't fall into that precipice
I would like to let it loose
Something I've learnt not to do
So I'll wait, I'll hold
Hold on to that feeling
Trying not to lose control
I was holding on to hate
Instead of lashing out
I was hoping you might stay
Instead of breeding doubt
Standing at the edge
Hoping I don't fall into that precipice
I would like to let it loose
Something I've learnt not to do
So I'll wait, I'll hold
Hold on to that feeling
Trying not to lose control
Cos there's a monster within
Always scratching at the edges
Trying to find a way to get in
Hoping I don't fall into that precipice
I would like to let it loose
Something I've learnt not to do oh-woah
I loved you how can this be true?
I would like to let it loose
Something I've learnt not to oh-woah
I would like to let it loose
Something I've learnt not to
So I'll wait, I'll hold
When every little monster knows he's gonna lose control
On my periphery
All I can see is enemies
You want a piece of me?
Well get in line
What do you mean?
Of course I still want you now
It's bigger than the memories
It's more than passing of time
Am I a piece of meat?
Well, sure, you come down to feed
You feast on my energy
You steal the very fire from me
What do you mean?
Of course I still want you now
It's bigger than the memories
It's more than the passing of time
Distant star
Don't know who you are
Don't know where you went
I don't know how it ends
Distant star
Don't know who you are
Don't know where you went
I don't know how it ends
Distant star
Don't know who you are
Don't know where you went
I don't know how it ends
Destiny
Why'd you take a piece of me?
Will you wait for me
On the other side?
Put your finger down on the big red button
All your stars have inhibitions
Held in check by their big ambitions
Self-destructive demolition
You live a little lie, live a little lie all the time
(Life's too short to waste my time)
You live a little lie, live a little lie and then you die
(It's not what you say it's what you hide)
The big red button
The big red button
Ooh, you're gonna lose
You got every little thing confused
Why'd you even try today
Whispered doubts unfaced
My future's been erased
Why'd you even get out of bed today?
Gathered up fragments of the life you shook
You'd do anything to turn back the clock
Pressed dried flower in the pages of a book
The scent's still pure if you'd open up
You live a little lie, live a little lie all the time
(Life's too short to waste my time)
You live a little lie, live a little lie and then you die
(It's not what you say it's what you hide)
The big red button
The big red button
Ooh, you're gonna lose
You got every little thing confused
Why'd you even try today?
Every little thing you say
Gets taken the wrong way
I only ran a mile
Instead of coming to your aid
Why'd you have to run away?
Why'd you tell me half the tale?
In time things will be okay once again
The big red button
Happy Hours
Slabs of grey meat shuffle on in
Hand their crumpled papers to me
And they stink of so much regret
Well I hope you've not tasted it yet
I'm getting tired again
A comfortable prison
The inmates within
I'm getting thirsty, well,
Happy hours will drown me again (Drown me again)
When your picture was still on the wall
It left a mark for when it's not there no more
You went away but your presence is still
There in the spaces that you don't fill
I'm getting tired again
A comfortable prison
The inmates within
I'm getting thirsty, well,
Happy hours will drown me again (Drown me again)
Drown me again (Drown me again)
Drown me again
Drown me again (Drown me again)
Here we hang like question marks
Meet your new love let it start
With the promise of a broken heart
Meet your next ex-wife
And buy her a cheap drink
Happy hours will drown me again (Drown me again)
Drown me again (Drown me again)
Drown me again
Drown me again
Again
