Good Life 03:23
Let's meet up on the edge of town Climb in my car and drive west bound Turn it up and play our favorite song Just let it go and sing along Let's make mistakes along the way So we'll remember yesterday We'll head right for the setting sun Let's run away Aww yeah, it's gonna be a good life Aww yeah, you know we're feelin' alright Tonight, Tonight Cause tonight we're alive Aww yeah, it's gonna be a good life Aww yeah, you know we're feelin' alright Tonight, Tonight It's alright; it's our life Let's stay out late and run around We'll go too far and burn it down Rise up mid-day and we'll move on No one can tell us that we're wrong We made mistakes along the way So we'd remember every day We'll head straight for the setting sun Let's run away Aww yeah, it's gonna be a good life Aww yeah, you know we're feelin' alright Tonight, Tonight Cause tonight we're alive Aww yeah, it's gonna be a good life Aww yeah, you know we're feelin' alright Tonight, Tonight Cause tonight we're alive Aww yeah, it's gonna be a good life Aww yeah, you know we're feelin' alright Tonight, Tonight Cause tonight we're alive Aww yeah, it's gonna be a good life Aww yeah, you know we're feelin' alright Tonight, Tonight It's alright; it's our life

Atmosphere 03:50
Burning up in this atmosphere- he just wants to get out of here, and get home to you. Needs to feel your warm embrace- it's cold and lonely in this space, as he fades from view. Put some classic vinyl on- the needle pops and now he's gone. It's gonna be alright, hes's gonna be okay- 'cause there you are. Born to run, Ziggy, to the dark side of the moon when you're feeling kind of blue. What's going on with you? Moon dance, Ziggy. Don't forget to check your head. Once you fall you might not rise again. What's going on with you? Burning up in this atmosphere- coming down without landing gear, and he's lost to you. Never wanted it to be this way- he's just trying to get through the day 'til he's home with you. Put some classic vinyl on- the needle pops and now he's gone. It's gonna be alright, hes's gonna be okay- 'cause there you are. Born to run, Ziggy, to the dark side of the moon when you're feeling kind of blue. What's going on with you? Moon dance, Ziggy. Don't forget to check your head. Once you fall you might not rise again. What's going on with you? Born to run, Ziggy, to the dark side of the moon when you're feeling kind of blue. What's going on with you? Moon dance, Ziggy. Don't forget to check your head. Once you fall you might not rise again. What's going on with you?

Diamond Eyes 04:00
We fell in love so fast thinking we could make it last. We didn't have to try at all- maybe that was our downfall. We couldn't see the signs- telling lies and blurring lines. We were going up in flames caught up in playing games. Falling apart in my heart, in my mind, through the fire, through the lies, and you've got diamond eyes- cutting through. Coming apart at the seams, so it seems, through the years of the lies, and I see your eyes- cutting through. Falling apart in my heart, in my mind, through the fire, through the lies, and you've got diamond eyes- cutting through. Coming apart at the seams, so it seems, through the years of the lies, and I see your eyes- cutting through. You've watched me burn. I've watched our love turn. You've lost your faith in me. I held on so carelessly. You're withering away- I've heard you say. You're a beautiful rose I never helped to grow. Falling apart in my heart, in my mind, through the fire, through the lies, and you've got diamond eyes- cutting through. Coming apart at the seams, so it seems, through the years of the lies, and I see your eyes- cutting through. Falling apart in my heart, in my mind, through the fire, through the lies, and you've got diamond eyes- cutting through. Coming apart at the seams, so it seems, through the years of the lies, and I see your eyes- cutting through.

That Story 02:47
What was that story you were told when you were young? They said you could be anything you want to be. Maybe that story only shields you from the truth. Life is cruel and it won't always go your way. What was that story? What was that story? What was that story from when you were young? What was that story? What was that story? What was that story from when you were young? Maybe they'll tell you that you need to fit their mold. You have to fall in line or risk falling behind. What was that story you were told when you were young? They said you could be anything you want to be. What if I told you that when life's all said and done... You just have to love the story you wrote, What was that story? What was that story? What was that story from when you were young? What was that story? What was that story? What was that story from when you were young?

I was starting to believe We could all be free. Only to find us sliding back An American tragedy. All your ranting lunacy; Your stooges on TV Only seeking to distract from the true reality. Damn your lies, Your soulless eyes. Line your pockets While children die. Give to the rich, And starve the poor, While refueling the race-war. You're anti-gay. You're anti-she. You're anti-them. You're anti-me. Let's take a stand, Let's take a knee, against this fascist tyranny. In my heart I do believe In spite of what I see. We'll fight off this attack By embracing unity. Don't be so naive We still hold the key. We'll bring our country back To the right side of history. Damn your lies, Your soulless eyes. Line your pockets While children die. Give to the rich, And starve the poor, While refueling the race-war. You're anti-gay. You're anti-she. You're anti-them. You're anti-me. Let's take a stand, Let's take a knee, against this fascist tyranny.

Saving face is commonplace, so keep it simple, yeah, keep it light. Shallow friends and deep fears. Buying shots and slamming beers. What we need we rarely find when you leave yourself so far behind. The night ends before it starts- Broken bottles and empty hearts. I see you across the room, drinking your bottle of wine. I feel you, I've been there too. Whiskey's been a friend of mine. I see you across the room, drinking your bottle of wine. I feel you, I've been there too. Whiskey's been a friend of mine. Another night here in this zoo in a constant state of déjà vu. I can't stand this place anymore. Have you ever felt like this before? What we need we rarely find when we reside in this frame of mind. The night ends before it starts Broken bottles and empty hearts. I see you across the room, drinking your bottle of wine. I feel you, I've been there too. Whiskey's been a friend of mine. I see you across the room, drinking your bottle of wine. I feel you, I've been there too. Whiskey's been a friend of mine. I see you drinking your bottle of wine. I feel you. Whiskey's been a friend of mine. I see you drinking your bottle of wine. I feel you. Whiskey's been a friend of mine.

Awakening 04:33
I might be half the man The world asked me to be; That doesn’t mean I'm half the human. I can’t see whats so wrong With feeling empathy On the brink Of this revolution. Whats the obsession With our masculinity, When we need To be twice as human. I tried to fit in with The old society: Land of the free, Home of confusion. Who’s gonna say All the the things you wanna say When you don’t (you don’t) When you don’t (you don’t). Who’s gonna be All the things you wanna be When you won’t (you won’t) When you won’t (you won’t). Who’s gonna say All the the things you wanna say When you don’t (you don’t) When you don’t (you don’t). Who’s gonna be All the things you wanna be When you won’t (you won’t) When you won’t (you won’t). She might be half the woman The world asked her to be; That doesn’t mean She’s half the human. We can’t see what so wrong With opportunity On the brink Of this revolution. Whats the obsession With her femininity, When we need to just be human. She tried to fit in with High society. Maybe she’s born with it; Maybe its make believe. Who’s gonna say All the the things you wanna say When you don’t (you don’t) When you don’t (you don’t). Who’s gonna be All the things you wanna be When you won’t (you won’t) When you won’t (you won’t). Who’s gonna say All the the things you wanna say When you don’t (you don’t) When you don’t (you don’t). Who’s gonna be All the things you wanna be When you won’t (you won’t) When you won’t (you won’t).

Excuse Me 03:11
Get it right tonight 'cause you know I'm fallin'. 'Cause I'm on fire. Gotta set my sight on a fate that's callin' and I desire. So where's the fight? 'Cause I know you're stallin'. This gun's for hire. Don't say it's alright, it's so damned appallin'. I'm a live-wire. Please excuse me- I'm runnin' low on excuses for the way I'm behavin'. Please excuse me- I'm running out of excuses for the way I'm behavin'. I'll be burnin' bright in this life I've chosen like a wildfire. Tryin' to ignite the events in motion that might inspire. So bring on the night with a mind wide open to getting higher. In the dying light yeah, I'm almost golden but so damned tired. Please excuse me- I'm runnin' low on excuses for the way I'm behavin'. Please excuse me- I'm running out of excuses for the way I'm behavin'. Please excuse me- I'm runnin' low on excuses for the way I'm behavin'. Please excuse me- I'm running out of excuses for the way I'm behavin'. Please excuse me- I'm runnin' low on excuses for the way I'm behavin'. Please excuse me- I'm running out of excuses for the way I'm behavin'.
