Last Night On Earth

Turn 02:59
The future’s tense, the past is dividing regrets. You can’t sleep ‘cause you’re scared of the absence of dreams. Time is wasting time. You remember the time you used to mind. And it seems so strange how everything just stays the same. But hold on, something’s going down ‘round here. Hold on, someone’s getting out of here. And it turns me on. It turns me right. It turns me, turns me inside. Turn me on. Turn me now. Turn me inside out. It’s a brand new day, you speak less ‘cause you’ve got too much to say. You turn on the T.V. – someone’s selling something for free. But hold on, something’s going down ‘round here. Hold on, someone’s getting out of here. And it turns me on. It turns me right. It turns me, turns me inside. Turn me on. Turn me now. Turn me inside out.

Two tickets for the moon, got nothin’ to lose A rocket ship to change, darlin’ we’re on our way. Take life as it comes. Why’s she shooting arrows and firing guns? I heard there’s life on Mars, You’ve heard I have a heart. Occasionally the world’s an unhappy place so plan accordingly. Please plan accordingly. Feels like I’ve been crying for over 100 years. And there’s still no river and way too many tears. So I say so long to sorrow you’ve been a good friend of mine, but every new beginning something’s got to die. Occasionally the world’s an unhappy place so plan accordingly... Please plan accordingly… 'Cause now here we are in our one room palace. Tomorrow seems like such a challenge. Close your eyes baby I’ll whisper in the dark – Ready Get Set Depart Occasionally the world’s an unhappy place so plan accordingly. Please plan accordingly.

Rid of You 02:38
I used to love you with a flick of the wrist, with a toss of the head and a shift of the hips. But baby I know that just ain’t enough. I know deep down in side you ain’t that tough and now you’re running out of luck Cause I’m rid of you like a snake sheds its skin. Sending you on your way with used to be’s and could’ve beens. I don’t think I’ll remember your name. no no no… On the radio the band played on. No we never had a favorite song. Could the DJ play along? Cause I’m rid of you like a snake sheds its skin. Sending you on your way with used to be’s and could’ve beens. I don’t think I’ll remember your name. no no no… No the dog can’t catch the wolf though he always almost could. And the hammer loves the nail but it’s the wood he ain’t ever gonna fail. Yeah I’m rid of you like a snake sheds its skin. Sending you on your way with used to be’s and could’ve beens. I don’t think I’ll remember your name. no no no I don’t think I’ll remember your name. no no no no no no And I’ll never be the same.

Wreck Me 04:28
Can we start from the beginning? I’ll pretend I had no idea that you never intended to call. No, you had no intentions at all. You left me climbing up the walls, waiting for the fall. Can we start from the beginning? I’ll pretend I had no idea that you knew that you could wreck me.Yeah, you knew that you could wreck me. These games that we’re playing, someday they’ll have no meaning. But if you hold me tonight like you intend to call me tomorrow, your words don’t have to be true; they could even be bought or borrowed. Don’t have a finger that needs a ring or wedding bells that are dying to sing. But my days are getting shorter and my nights they stay long. And I’m only pretending, I’m pretending to be strong. Can we start from the beginning? I’ll pretend I had no idea that you never intended to stay, that I’d cry when you walked away. And no I don’t even know you, but what I don’t know always haunts me. But if you hold me tonight like you intend to call me tomorrow, your words don’t have to be true; they could even be bought or borrowed. Don’t have a finger that needs a ring or wedding bells that are dying to sing. But my days are getting shorter and my nights they stay long. And I’m only pretending, I’m pretending to be strong. Can we start from the beginning? I’ll pretend I had no idea that you knew that you could wreck me.Yeah, you knew that you could wreck me. These games that we’re playing, someday they’ll have no meaning. They’ll have no meaning…

Silence is all we need but it’s been so god-damn quiet that I can hardly see. Silence is all we need. Patience is all we need but I’ve been so god-damn patient that I can hardly see. Patience is all we need. Forgiveness is all we need but I’ve been so god-damn forgiving now you can no longer see that forgiveness is all we need. Silence is all we need but I’ve been so god-damn quiet that I can hardly see. Silence is all we need.
