I can keep it real Or I can just pretend How your body moves Is how I want to bend I can be your enemy Or I can be your friend How your body moves Is how I want to bend I can shake things up Or I can just defend How your body moves Is how I want to bend I can be your everything Or I can be the end How your body moves Is how I want to bend I am 100% I am 100% You thought that I was empty You thought that I was spent But I’m still here And I’m 100% I can rip you open Or I can help you mend How your body moves Is how I want to bend I can leave you hanging Or stay to the bitter end How your body moves Is how I want to bend I am 100% I am 100% You thought that I was empty You thought that I was spent But I’m still here And I’m 100% I’m still here And I’m 100% I am 100% I am 100% You thought that I was broken You thought that I was bent But I’m still here And I’m 100% I am 100% I am 100% You thought that I was empty You thought that I was spent But I’m still here And I’m 100% I’m still here And I’m 100%

Progress 06:48
It moves in a zig-zag form Defying all the science of the norm It grows up from defeat A flower in the wretched heat It’s fertilized and prized Among the swarm It’s promised in the shiny distant light Teased from the disease of left and right A silent beacon in our heart That can tear the world apart It’s the oscillating curve Of day and night We like to see a comeback So we cast ourselves behind A vote against our interests A grievance in our mind We’re inching up to heaven Where the wicked come to play Progress is the purpose It’s the way It copulates in spaces found between The knowing glowing faces on our screen It’s circuit is complete With every status, every tweet A million tiny deaths In the machine It scares the squares beneath their broken sphere It engages all the changes that they fear They’ve fought it for so long But resistance makes it strong It helps the blind to see The deaf to hear We like to see a comeback So we cast ourselves behind A vote against our interests A grievance in our mind We’re inching up to heaven Where the wicked come to play Progress is the purpose It’s the way We like it when we’re heard So we raise our voices loud In the friendly echo chamber Of a complimentary crowd We try to fight the impulse But protests ricochet Progress is the purpose It’s the way

Have you ever been so in love That you had to fake it? Have you ever felt so complete That you had to break it? All these things exploding In a blinding ball of light Whatever’s left is right You are all the same You are all the same You are all the same You’re burning and breaking down Have you ever gone so fast That you had to stop it? Have you ever had the ball so long That you had to drop it? All these things exploding In a blinding ball of light Whatever’s left is right You are all the same You are all the same You are all the same You’re burning and breaking down You are all the same You are all the same You are all the same You’re burning and breaking down Have you ever been so high That you had to ground it? Have you ever been so lost That you finally found it? All these things are burning In a phosphorescent light Whatever’s left is right You are all the same You are all the same You are all the same You’re burning and breaking down You are all the same You are all the same You are all the same You’re burning and breaking down

It’s all give and take The sleeper is awake The taste of broken dreams Is giving more than I can take Can you see me now? Can you see me now? Now I’m in the know What we reap is what we sew There must be more than this So why can’t I just let it go? Can you see me now? Can you see me now? How can I let you know That I can’t let you go? How can I let you know That I can’t let you go? It’s all up and down An echo with no sound I’ll fill the empty space With something borrowed Something found Can you see me now? Can you see me now? It’s just the same old deal God can give and God can steal I’ve wished a thousand times But nothing happens, nothing real Can you see me now? Can you see me now? How can I let you know That I can’t let you go? How can I let you know That I can’t let you go? Why can’t I let you go? Why can’t I let you go? I can’t let you go I can’t let you go How can I let you know That I can’t let you go? How can I let you know That I can’t let you go?

Wasted 05:26
You try to kill your cancer With a complicated answer You look for truth in the divine But your prayers won’t kill it Meditation won’t kill it Slip off your disguise Say goodbye to the liars Say goodbye to the lies Say goodbye to the liars Say goodbye to the lies Say goodbye to the lies If you had known that you were already dead You could have lived your life Not mourned it instead If you had known that you were already gone You could have saved yourself You could have lived all along Now it’s wasted You try to kill your question With the power of suggestion You look for answer in a pill But your drugs won’t kill it Medication won’t kill it Open up your eyes Say goodbye to the liars Say goodbye to the lies Say goodbye to the liars Say goodbye to the lies Say goodbye to the lies If you had known that you were already dead You could have lived your life Not mourned it instead If you had known that you were already gone You could have saved yourself You could have lived all along Now it’s wasted Have you found Everything you’ve been looking for? Have you found Everything you’ve been looking for? Have you found Everything you’ve been looking for? Have you found All the things you’ve been looking for? Looking for Looking for If you had known that you were already dead You could have lived your life Not mourned it instead If you had known that you were already gone You could have saved yourself You could have lived all along Now it’s wasted

IDGAF 04:21
You tell me your secrets You tell me you lies You show me who you really are The face you try to hide You think it’s a good thing That you take control You say you hold the hand of God And he’s justified your goal You think I’m nasty You think I suck You think I’m worthless I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck You tell me your reasons You tell me your plans You tell me how you’ll get to heaven By the way you fold your hands You think it’s a good thing To tell me how I should live But I’m running out of time And I’m out of fucks to give You think I’m nasty You think I suck You think I’m worthless I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck about you I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck about you I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I really don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck about you I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck about you I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck I care but I don’t give a fuck about you

You are the hottest thing around You’re so sweet I’m so sour So deep in you that I could drown Fortune says We’ve got the power Time to get away Time to get away Time to get away Time to get away Target locked no second guess Eyes on you I like to watch My heart is jackin’ inside my chest Come with me Let’s kick it up a notch Time to get away Time to get away Time to get away Time to get away You come undone and I cross the line I’ll get what I want It’s just a matter of time Just open your mind So little time I’ll give in the pull’s too strong You can’t shake me From the goal This is what I wanted all along Lost my innocence I’ve lost my control Time to get away Time to get away Time to get away Time to get away You come undone and I cross the line I’ll get what I want It’s just a matter of time Just open your mind So little time Just open your mind Don’t fuck it up

Take It 06:18
On the left are the people with their head in the sand On the right is the Christ with the gun in his hand On the top are the people that are laughing at the problem And their tears are streaming down To drown the people at the bottom On the left is the voice of the choice of the masses On the right is the white divide between the classes On the top is a god, you can see it in his eyes He’s forcing fear on others with Religion in disguise You bend but you don’t break it You give but you can’t take it You pretend until you make it You give but you can’t take it Terrorized Paralyzed Go Everyone is drowning under weight of an illusion And democracy is threatened by the ignorant confusion The cheating’s in the open and the cheeks have all been turned And we sing and fold our hands And watch this fucker burn You bend but you don’t break it You give but you can’t take it You pretend until you make it You give but you can’t take it Terrorized Paralyzed Go You bend but you don’t break it You give but you can’t take it You pretend until you make it You give but you can’t take it Terrorized Paralyzed Compromised Hypnotized Go

Childe 06:03
The question is the quest Now this is the final test I’ve never felt more alive I’ll use the master key First draw two and then draw three I’ve never felt more alive Now I’ve got Everything I need I am finally breathing easy You’re everything that I’ve been searching for You’re the bullet in the gun The reckoning has just begun I’ve never felt more alive Built it up and the tower fell But you can save me from myself I’ve never felt more alive Now I’ve got Everything I need I am finally breathing easy You’re everything that I’ve been searching for Now I’ve got Everything I need I can finally take it easy You’re everything that I’ve been searching for I’ve been searching for When I’m at the journey’s end I will loop and live again I’ve never felt more alive Now I’ve got Everything I need I am finally breathing easy You’re everything that I’ve been searching for Now I’ve got Everything I need I can finally take it easy You’re everything that I’ve been searching for That I’ve been searching for
