LYRICS
If it’s the world you want to change
It might take more than your pocket change
The damage we’ve done
Nobody won
Nobody one
When you look back
You will see
The way things could be
If it’s the world you want to change
It might take more than pocket change
We can change the way
We can make the day
We can show the way

LYRICS
Just like has been said before
Don’t know if we can stand any more
Going through the floor
The way we’re going
It’s going to begin
The way things are going
It’s going to begin
To end
The way we’re headed
Going to be dreaded
By the youth
The way that we’re headed
Won’t need a sleuth
Falling through the floor

LYRICS
If you’re gonna believe what you wanna believe
Then please relieve and give relief to the relief that is life
Raised above the plane
Relevo! To raise! Be sane!
Help put an end to strife
See if you can find out
Where that fact is at
See if you can take in
All that has been
And come to a logical conclusion
For real
Believe what is real
Based on facts more than how you feel
It’s more the real than how you feel
Logical conclusion. Logical infusion.

LYRICS
At night you can see the light
Coming down the track
Better move back
’cause that’s an impressive locomotive
Impressive loco motive
Better move back
Coming down the track
If you go head-to-head with a loco motive
You’d better use your brain when it comes to the train (of thought)
Better move back
The train will squash your brain
You’d better move back

by Daniel Brouse
LYRICS
Don’t let the fusion of the illusion
Become your delusion
If you see a fissure
In the division of vision
You start to question asking why
We should even try
Get trapped in the vicious lie
Fission vision
To the native eye
Teardrop… cry
Fusion illusion becoming one with your delusion
Don’t let the fusion of the illusion
Become your delusion
If you’re feeling your life is just for using
If you think it’s your right to fight and abusing
The fusion of your illusion is an evolution
Add to the confusion of the illusion
Your fusion into delusion — collusion
Ya add to the mass hysteria
Delusional
Delusion all

LYRICS
Pick up your battle axe
Head on to the battle field
Where the reality is found
Of your battle wound
Chorus
Let out your battle cry
“We’re all gonna die!”
Does it matter why?
Doesn’t matter why?
Pay up you due tax
On your illegal yield
Less, when “The Book” is unbound
Your fate will be doomed

LYRICS
Seriously? Conspiracy theory?
It’s kind-of pungent
To be that ignorant
One thinks it stinks
Seriously? Really seriously?
Your conspiracy theory
So silly
You must be kiddin’ me
Seriously? Conspiracy theory?
Why chemtrails in the sky
Why 9/11… some divine heaven
Why vaccination intimidation
Silly. Seriously conspiracy theory?
Do you like the controversy
When you distort the story
Or is really just pungence
From ignorance
One thinks it stinks!

LYRICS
22,000 days
If you’re lucky 100 years
Death displays in so many ways
Creating uncertainties… creating fears
Is your crime wasting time
Cheating the human race
Is your crime wasting time
Taking up precision space
22,000 ways
All days to shed in tears?
Keep death at bay on any given day
Shedding light… overcoming fears!
Is your crime wasting time
Cheating the human race
Is your crime wasting time
Taking up precision space
Can’t acquire a taste for waste

LYRICS
If you’re living in rubbish
Maybe it’s time to relish…
Livin’
Lovin’ livin’
If you’re living is rubbish
Maybe it’s time to start loving living
Relish living
If your living is hellish
Maybe it’s time to banish
The rubbish
If you’re living in rubbish
Might be time to relish
Living loving living loving
If it’s devilish in the hellishness
Caught up in the jealousness
What a mess
Might be time to be loving the living
Feeling hellish living in rubbish
Maybe it’s time to garnish
Put on the relish
Start loving living
Living loving
Loving living
Time to let go of the selfish
And start to relish
Loving of the living
Start giving
Loving of the living
Loving living
Wish relish

Sign Of Our Sine Music Video.mp4
LYRICS
If ya need to clear your head
Better off going back to bed
Instead of rants in a rage
About your self-imposed cage
The sign of our sine wave into the future
The time for our sign is now and evermore
Regretting the things you said
Should have gone back to bed?
A victimization rationalization
Victimization rationalization
The sign of our sine wave into the future
The time for our sign is now and evermore
