(Believe the hype)
Penny philosopher a silent phenomena
A golden ticket to abuse and amuse
The skeptical messiah makes an elegant pariah
He’s far from perfect yeah but he’ll do
What gives authority to question who we love?
I gave you everything
Will it ever be enough?
You better believe it!
No sympathy for the spotlight
I don’t I don’t I don’t (believe the hype)
Birds of paradise rolling snake eyes
I don’t I don’t don’t (believe the hype)
You better believe it it’s coming down fast
Turning me into digital ash
Somebody’s treasure another’s trash
Answer the questions take off the mask
Believe the hype
Reject idolatry mundane modernity
Things don’t need to be right to be true
Racing to the bottom hive mind is getting rotten
I hear the buzz but the taste nothing new
What gives authority to question who we love?
I gave you everything
Will it ever be enough?
You better believe it!
No sympathy for the spotlight
I don’t I don’t I don’t (believe the hype)
Birds of paradise rolling snake eyes
I don’t I don’t don’t (believe the hype)
You better believe it it’s coming down fast
Turning me into digital ash
Somebody’s treasure another’s trash
Answer the questions take off the mask
Believe the hype
Do do do do do, do do do do do, hahaha

With A Bang

I blew you a kiss you blew me away
I taught you to hunt you made me the prey
Lips like venom always leaving me drained
I’m crawling back looking somewhat deranged
Can’t find the lock must we really be chained?
No matter what they try we can’t be tamed
You say it wouldn’t be this way forever
But now it’s clear that it doesn't stop
You keep on saying now or never
I’ll be waiting here till I drop
Now the final act is up
Of the terminal lovers
So let’s go out with a bang (bang)
Let’s go out with a bang (bang)
Let’s go out with a bang (bang)
At each other throats with a bloody bouquet
Love is the drug and we medicate
Always gotta be right
Make problems larger than life
Rattled and ready to fight
Bringing out my dramatic side!
He’s got a few loose screws she obsessed with her blues
They got opposing views celebrating nothing to lose
You say it wouldn’t be this way forever
But now it’s clear that it doesn't stop
You keep on saying now or never
I’ll be waiting here till I drop
Now the final act is up
Of the terminal lovers
So let’s go out with a bang (bang)
Let’s go out with a bang (bang)
Let’s go out with a bang (bang)
Go ahead take a bite
Surviving purely out of spite
One last prick of your fangs
If that’s all there is
Let’s go out with a bang!
So let’s go out with a bang (bang)
Let’s go out with a bang (bang)
Let’s go out with a bang, bang, bang, yeah

Caught up in your lens again
Another day playing pretend
Getting shot and chasing trends
Posing for the bitter end
I bet that that finger on the trigger must feel so good
Come shoot me again like a camera boy should
Staring down the barrel
Blowing smoke hearts in the light
Oh you think you’ve captured me
Haha you must be joking right?!
Camera boy always playing with a human toy
Do you like what you see? Does it fill that void?
Camera boy
Fill the void
With your camera
I took the shots I made my bed
Wondering why I’m still not dead
A mouse in a lovely frame
The cat plays anamorphic games
I bet that finger on the trigger gets ya feeling like a god
Camera’s the only thing that your ever turning
Staring down the barrel
Blowing smoke hearts in the light
Oh you think you’ve captured me
Haha you must be joking right?!
Camera boy always playing with a human toy
Do you like what you see? Does it fill that void?
Camera
Taking pictures to prove you existed
I’m timeless don’t get it twisted
Taking pictures to prove you existed
I’m timeless don’t get it twisted
Camera boy always playing with a human toy
Do you like what you see? Does it fill that void?
Camera boy with a human toy
Camera boy fill the void
Camera boy

Dancing With Chaos

Someday hangover morning
Got the jackhammers, cars slammin’
Trying to get me going
Head rings like a chainsaw
As I’m trying to take it chill
Stirring pills in my mocha
Menace all around every inch of this town
I’m just trying to keep it together
I’m just looking for a sign that I haven’t lost my mind
Need to decompress the pressure
When the world is on fire
And we’re walking on the wire
Surrendering and letting go
Of your illusion of control
Another dance with chaos
Dancing with chaos
Dancing with chaos
Could you be my magic genie?
Cause the vibe down here
Isn’t making this easy
Chemicals got me glowin’
Getting high as hell
Off the gas fumes flowin’
Looking for a spot to be myself don’t need a lot
Where the scene isn't batshit crazy
I keep looking for a place where my mind could catch a break
And be ripping with no worries
When the world is on fire
And we’re walking on the wire
Surrendering and letting go
Of your illusion of control
Another dance with chaos
Dancing with chaos
Dancing with chaos
When the world is on fire
And we’re walking on the wire
Surrendering and letting go
Of your illusion of control
Another dance with chaos

Mindful Madness
04:50

Round and round we go again and it’s never clearer
Help me believe, it’s not pretend in my magic mirror
Rolled all my coins down in the slot it’s a carnival nature
Sucking atomic lollipops
Hijacked sanity for ransom
Forced to sing your new world anthems
This ride’s never coming to an end
My weapons of mass seduction
Wreckquiems for your destruction
flick this lighter if you wanna burn
I don’t care who’s watching
It’s not like we get freedom that often
Too much to think?
Let me simplify it if you bleed they will drink
Faith in suspicions truth in your fictions
One last caress oh take me mindful madness
Come on Come on take me mindful madness
The hand that feeds tastes so yucky
Must we be that daft to get this lucky?
Don’t need the sympathy or attention
Long live my enemies art is my weapon
Righteousness and puppet masters
staged attacks and crisis actors
I don’t know who to believe at all
Censored stories, hacks and death threats
Security or surveillance?
Damned if we do anything at all
I don’t care who’s watching
It’s not like we get freedom that often
Too much to think?
Let me simplify it if you bleed they will drink
Faith in suspicions truth in your fictions
One last caress oh take me mindful madness
Come on Come on take me mindful madness
I’m no preacher but convince me that life’s not a serial killer
Maybe you’re right but all deer secretly love the headlights
Subliminal creatures, secret believers
Possessed obsessed take me mindful madness
Come on Come on take me mindful madness
Take me mindful madness
Take me mindful madness

One down here comes another
Doesn't really matter if you're outnumbered
Genetic arcade, psychic hunter
Coming for ya is it really any wonder?
They’ll always be the winner
Only love ya when ur wrapped around their finger
Sit down, come take a number
and wait for the kill
Did ya really think you had us falling for you?
Those wicked games never played through
Blowing up the benefit of being under your thumb
I’m the bullet she’s the gun
Free to run
Free to run
Free to run
Now we’re going undercover
I love my baby and we’re always on the run ya
Don’t try to steal my thunder
A pretty picture doesn't cut it any longer
By now I must be a monster
Don’t even know why you still want me any longer
Sit down, come take a number
and wait for the kill
Did ya really think you had us falling for you?
Those wicked games never played through
Blowing up the benefit of being under your thumb
I’m the bullet she’s the gun
Free to run
Free to run
Free to run

Gonna knock you right on the head

Gonna knock you off your feet
Better recognize your brothers
Everybody that you meet
Why in the world are we here?
Surely not to live in pain and fear
Why on earth are you there
When you're ev'rywhere
Come and get your share!
Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Yeah we all shine on
Come on and on and on on on

Captured raptured
You laugh like an actor
Senses bought and sold
Yes sir no sir
Can't hide the laughter
From followers, swallowers
Clowns, thieves and lawyers
Everybody's famous
Everybody's famous except me
Everybody's famous
Everybody's famous except me
They kiss like a machine
No mental hygiene
My favourite TV show to watch is your face
Because we're all alone
I had an idea today
There goes a needle in the world wide hay
Illuminati don't have taste anyway
Because they're all alone
Everybody's famous
Everybody's famous except me
Everybody's famous
Everybody's famous except me
Young, plush and tasteless
Well fed and heinous
We gotta run run run
Plugged in and painless
Nothing can change us
We gotta run run run
Everybody's famous
Everybody's famous except me
Everybody's famous
Everybody's famous except me
