LYRICS
Train of thought
Get ‘er running
Hey, why not
Make it stunning?
Let’s see if Man can
Start again
After we bring The End
Begin

Jumped the tracks
With their facts
Runaway train
Of harebrained
Let’s see if Man can
Start again
After we bring The End
Begin

Off the rails
Rides collide
Tattered sails
Crew divides
Let’s see if Man can
Start again
After we bring The End
Begin

All our trains of thought
Have come to their final stop
The last station on the line
Damnation of our time
Let’s see if Man can
Start again
After we bring The End
Begin

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
My girlfriend
Is cold as ice
Said “The end.”
And, that’s not nice
Polar opposites
We’re breaking up
Solar refugees
Adrift at sea
Calving
Halving
Split and shed
Humanity
Insanity
Soon be dead
Should we dread?

My girlfriend
Skates thin ice
Said “The end.”
Didn’t think twice
Polar opposites
We’re breaking up
Solar refugees
Adrift at sea
Calving
Halving
Split and shed
Humanity
Insanity
Soon be dead
Should we dread?

Is it absurd to love an iceberg
or the pleasure of a glacier?
Think of how she must have felt
When we made her heart melt

LYRICS
Given the circumstances
All the second chances
Who would have thought
It would End like that?

Chosen circus dances
All the second glances
Look what we’ve bought
Could be The End of it
.. and… shit…
I was just getting use to the habit
Of living
Love living
Keep giving
Of love
Keep giving living
Life on the edge of a knife

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Get on your marks
Get ready to go
Let’s throw some sparks
We’ll put on a show
The human race
We set the pace
Of survival
We’re face-to-face
With the human race
Our rival

Out of the chutes
We’re on a roll
Freed from our roots
Or digging a hole?
The human race
We set the pace
Of survival
We’re face-to-face
With the human race
Our rival

The finish line
Comin’ ’round the bend
Before our time
Came to “The End”
The human race
We set the pace
Of survival
We’re face-to-face
With the human race
Our rival

LYRICS
Raindrops are fallin’
Time to get movin’
The storm is roundin’
The last bend
(To the end)
Though by now
Would’ve thought about it
How to quit
Somehow
Addicted Fat Cat
Stale and rotten
Realize
Fail… forgotten
The End

Waters are risin’
Best to get movin’
No levee left
To defend
(To the end)
Though by now
Would’ve thought about it
How to quit
Somehow
Addicted Fat Cat
Stale and rotten
Realize
Fail… forgotten
The End

The floods are ragin’
Too late to start swimmin’
That damn dam
We can’t mend
(It’s the end)
Though by now
Would’ve thought about it
How to quit
Somehow
Addicted Fat Cat
Stale and rotten
Realize
Fail… forgotten
The End

LYRICS
At the end of the day
That’s the way
Opinions sway
n’ fray
Is it O.K.
To change the way
You see the day
Today
The grass is greener on whichever side
You choose to reside
What you hoard deep inside
Becomes your Lord to load your ride
Lighten your load
The baggage adage
Is it time to concede
All you need?

At the start of the day
Do you say
Make the best of the rest
Find a way
To say O.K.
I’m up for the test
Good day!
The grass is greener on whichever side
You choose to reside
What you hoard deep inside
Becomes your Lord to load your ride
Lighten your load
The baggage adage
Is it time to concede
All you need?

LYRICS
What do you say
We go out of our way
This morning
That is to say
Take the time to persuade
Sound alarming
When I say the sky is falling
Let me be clear
I’m not saying The End is near
Rather atmospheric rivers squalling

What do you say
We go out of our way
Today
Not to evade
Take the time to persuade
Hear what we say
When I say the sky is falling
Let me be clear
I’m not saying The End is near
Rather atmospheric rivers squalling
It’s the ocean falling
Human-made shivers
Atmospheric rivers
Falling down
Rising up
And round and round

LYRICS
It’s a long time
But it keeps getting shorter
All of the time
Seeing all you’ve caught
Being all you’ve got
Prime
Time’s prime
Now until the dying
Best to keep on trying
All the time
Prime time

It’s a long time
But it keeps getting shorter
All of the time
Been a long time
But after second quarter
Makes it half-time
Seeing all you’ve caught
Being all you’ve got
Prime
Time’s prime
Now until the dying
Best to keep on trying
All the time
Prime time

It’s a long time
But it keeps getting shorter
All of the time
Was a long time
Better send a court reporter
The End of times
Seeing all you’ve caught
Being all you’ve got
Prime
Time’s prime
Now until the dying
Best to keep on trying
All the time
Prime time

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Are we backed into a corner
Are we standing on a ledge
Are we destined to be mourners
Suffering the bleeding edge
Until the End
Ill will amend
Instill a mend
The message we send
Until the End

What we lacked is back and more than
We are standing on the verge
Now we’re stacked remembering back when
We would kill just out of urge
Until the End
Ill will amend
Instill a mend
The message we send
Until the End

The code cracked
The answer spelled out
Seems obvious to us
Mother lode… she has spilled out
All life should be fabulous
Until the End
Ill will amend
Instill a mend
The message we send
Until the End

LYRICS
The sun slowly slips from the sky
Scarring the daylight out of the night
It dawns on me
I can see
Just ask why
For the light to turn on
As you try
Might ignite desire burnin’
(It’s a turn-om)

The sun slowly slips from the sky
Draining blues from blacks till light lacks
It dawns on me
I can see
Just ask why
For the light to turn on
As you try
Might ignite desire burnin’
(It’s a turn-om)

The sun rounds the bend to The End
Causing the daylight to outright die
It dawns on me
I can see
Just ask why
For the light to turn on
As you try
Might ignite desire burnin’
(It’s a turn-om)

LYRICS
The End of the Ice Age
Need a new age sage
A guide to slide
Me off the ice
Think twice
About rolling the dice
… less loose grips slip

That’s The End of an era
Need a lesson on less error
A guide to slide
Me off the ice
Think twice
About rolling the dice
… less loose grips slip

They say it’s a new day
Could use some help finding my way
A guide to slide
Me off the ice
Think twice
About rolling the dice
… less loose grips slip

LYRICS
In between the cracks
The dust must
Often overseen
Us to dust
Why fuss
Why fret
On us
To get
With it
(at least for a bit… get with it!)

In between the dark
There’s flashes
In The End we embark
Us to ashes
Why fuss
Why fret
On us
To get
With it
(at least for a bit… get with it!)

Now I stop to think
We’re stardust
The missing link
Always dust
Why fuss
Why fret
On us
To get
With it
(at least for a bit… get with it!)

LYRICS
The light at The End of the tunnel
Exit
The vortex of the funnel
(That’s it! Exit!)
Spilling out
Into the light
Flowing out
Onto a sea of flight
Going out
To be among the bright
Knowing doubt
Was left in the night
Finding out
It all will be alright

LYRICS
The last thing will be the first thing
The start of something new
The ending of the ending
As beginning I never knew
… how time flew
The best of the best
Just keeps getting better
Book, chapter, verse
Down to the letter
The reality of living history
Now you’ve told your story
That story has been told
That story has grown old
(End of age… turn the page)

The next thing will be a new thing
In time the future passed
the ending of the ending
We knew it couldn’t last
… time went past
The best of the best
Just keeps getting better
Book, chapter, verse
Down to the letter
The reality of living history
Now you’ve told your story
That story has been told
That story has grown old
(End of age… turn the page)

LYRICS
Does it all depend on the “whether” (whether weather)
Comes down to The End on the “whether” (whether weather)
The whether or not
The winds in a knot
Give it what you’ve got
Why…
Or why not?

Does all life mend on the “whether” (whether weather)
What of love will send of the “whether” (whether weather)
The whether or not
The winds in a knot
Give it what you’ve got
Why…
Or why not?

Does the whole truth bend on the “whether” (whether weather)
Understanding lend on the “whether” (whether weather)
The whether or not
The winds in a knot
Give it what you’ve got
Why…
Or why not?
