Hello, and welcome to the rest of your life Before we begin this short journey, please sit back, relax, and remember: Enjoy yourselves... you scum He’s counting down the days in tedious grey charades The truth still hangs on the wall when pride comes before a fall (Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?) In answer to your question, you won’t know now (Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?) Turning the lights out and closing the windows Just wasting your way off this world We’re living in a dying age, when the writing’s on the wall But we’rе burning with a quiet rage; this is the day and agе He tries to fight his pride, but something sticks deep inside And as this fire builds, he stands here perfectly still (Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?) I’m gonna be somebody - I’ve nothing left to lose (Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?) Stand in the spotlight, assume your positions You’re gonna remember me now We’re living in a dying age, when the writing’s on the wall But we’re burning with a quiet rage; this is the day and age And if I told you sooner my statement of intent I’m living in the dark light (There’s nothing left to say now) This world has lost all sense (sense, sense, sense) We’re living in a dying age, when the writing’s on the wall But we’re burning with a quiet rage; this is the day and age (Congratulations - enjoy yourselves...) (Enjoy yourselves...) (Everything is okay - everything is okay...) We're coming - coming for you When you see me, I can see you, see you We're coming - coming for you Can you see me? I can't see you, see you (Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?) I'm gonna be somebody And if I told you sooner my statement of intent I’m living in the dark light (There’s nothing left to say now) This world has lost all sense (sense, sense, sense) We’re living in a dying age, when the writing’s on the wall But we’re burning with a quiet rage; this is the day and age

Tactical compliments Time honoured systems of touch Methods of self preservation To escape when it all gets too much These are the games that we play While we’re waiting for the lie Literal armament I’ll stick to my stones We imagine the shape of the danger And decide that we’re better off alone These are the things that we say While we’re waiting for the lie When you find that you’ve nowhere to hide We’re all waiting for the lie The truth is so undignified We’re all waiting for the lie We all carry the guilt We’re all waiting for the lie When you know you’ll be breaking their heart We’re all waiting for the lie The deception is part of the art We’re all waiting for the lie When it’s time to apportion the blame We’re all waiting for the lie The excuses will all be the same We’re all waiting for the lie Whenever the government speaks We’re all waiting for the lie Instead of the truth we should seek We’re all waiting for the lie Whenever you open your mouth We’re all waiting for the lie Without any shadow of doubt We’re all waiting for the lie These are the things that we say These are the things that we say

It happened quite by accident One day at home, the boy discovered that he had an ability An ability to remain perfectly still For just a few minutes at first But then with refinement and perseverance, he found he could, after a time, freeze himself indefinitely Then one evening, at home with his mother after a few hours of complete stillness, hе realized that she had lost all pеrception of him. He became part of the room, part of the furniture, part of the space of the room He became invisible. Even to the one who had given birth to him As the boy grew older, he would experiment with his ability in the wider world. He would disappear at his place of work, at his home and at parties Standing in the shadows, he would simply cease to exist The boy became estranged from the people and the world he had grown up knowing. He devoted his time to observation and deeper thinking. In the long shadows of the day, he would stand. Year after year. Watching But that was then I stood and watched you build them Their faces just like ours Five figures standing without eyes Their mouths aimed at the stars The figures turned towards us And then blocked out the sun Their voices started rising Then screaming one by one Hail self Hail rage Hail fear Hail blame Hail lies All rise, for the five The five Over the course of time, he noticed his physiognomy begin to change. He grew taller, two-dimensional, thin to the point of absurdity. He took food and water in plain sight, under the noses of people blinded by the inability to conceive such an evolution He watched as his previous friends grew old, succumbed to disease, or self-inflicted damage And died Eventually, he was alone Now? Who knows. But I think he’s out there somewhere Watching Hail self Hail rage Hail fear Hail blame Hail lies All rise, for the five The five Hail self Hail rage Hail fear Hail blame Hail lies All rise, for the five The five

(Enjoy yourself) (Wish I was there) Holidays in the sun Sending out your postcards from the gamma coast The place you love the most, with all the other ghosts And if you feel betrayed Your country loves you nonetheless, just don’t get in the way Enjoy your stay, soak up all the rays And if you ever dare to wonder why Just shut your mouth, enjoy the sights And when the sunlight burns you, close your eyes This fatal dose of island life Burning in the sun You could be anywhere right now with anyone Forget your bleeding gums - it’s all part of the fun Government 101 Keeping people happy in apocalyptic ways Enjoy your holidays - we’re all fucked anyway And if you ever dare to wonder why Just shut your mouth, enjoy the sights And when the sunlight burns you, close your eyes This fatal dose of island life Living in this island life, living in this island life Living in this island life, living in this island life Living in this island life, living in this island life Living in this island life, living in this island life Living in this island life, living in this island life Living in this island life, living in this island life Living in this island life, (this island life) living in this island life Living in this island life, living in this island life And if you ever dare to wonder why Just shut your mouth, enjoy the sights And when the sunlight burns you, close your eyes This fatal dose of island life

Across the open field and out towards the lake A lifetime to consider a moment of escape Selling him had currency, the waiting everyday But your regret won’t bring him back, and silence ends the day The cracks in your story will leave you numb When running in circles we come undone You’re out in the wild again So stop staring upwards and face your pain What’s skywards is not to blame Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again Across the iron ocean there’s comfort in despair This boy consigned to black and white, and memory can’t repair In everything you see in him, the faces on the wall Your weeds are growing faster now, suffocating all The cracks in your story will leave you numb When running in circles we come undone You’re out in the wild again So stop staring upwards and face your pain What’s skywards is not to blame Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again The angels won’t hear your unanswered prayers And upwardly wishing won’t lead you there You’re out in the wild again So stop staring upwards and face your pain What’s skywards is not to blame Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again (Walk in the light again) (Walk in the light again) What’s skywards is not to blame So keep facing forwards, away from the skywards Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again

Those violins playing inside your head Please shut 'em up I’m sleeping; the doorway’s over there The boy I was is gone, they blew his happy brains out They ground him down I never thought that I would end up here Let’s take the songs to the town, so they can shoot ‘em all down Kill the orchestra - we’re dying anyway You’d start a war with all the words in the world But it's not enough You’re losing, and no one really cares Let’s take the songs to the town, so they can shoot ‘em all down Kill the orchestra - we’re dying anyway Beside the car sits the never-was rock star Stuck in the past with your woe-is-me story I used to care, now you’ll get little sympathy So get your guitar - it’s the death of a salesman And I’ll be singing when they string you up Yes, I’ll be singing when they string you up Who’s laughing now? Now you find your house empty Desdemona, what did you do to yourself? And I’ll be singing when they string you up Yes, I’ll be singing as they string you up Let’s take the songs to the town, so they can shoot ‘em all down Kill the orchestra - we’re dying anyway Look what you’ve become - you’re the neighborhood parody The player of games, your own worst enemy So play it again, please play it again for me Your secret is out, laid out for all to see Those violins playing inside your head Please shut 'em up I’m sleeping; the doorway’s over there Let’s take the songs to the town, so they can shoot ‘em all down Kill the orchestra - we’re dying anyway And I’ll be singing as they string you up Yes, I’ll be singing as they string you up (Relax...) (Relax...) What have we done? (Can you see me?) What have we done? (I can see you) Tell me, what have we done? (Can you see me?) What have we done? (I can see you) (Everything is okay...) (Everything is okay...) (Relax...) (Enjoy yourselves...)

Enjoy yourselves, you scum! There’s only one way out, repeat to fade There’s no rewinding life, repeat to fade Start clawing out your heart, repeat to fade Repeat to fade Trapped in metal coffins, endless days Do as you are told and fear allays Sacrifice your soul to this machine This is not a place for living dreams There’s only one way out, repeat to fade There’s no rewinding life, repeat to fade Start clawing out your heart, repeat to fade Repeat to fade Exercise your right at any time There’s no dignity in slow decline Treadmill institution bleeds you dry Open up the window, take a dive There’s only one way out, repeat to fade There’s no rewinding life, repeat to fade Start clawing out your heart, repeat to fade Repeat to fade We’re shutting down your comms, you have been warned There’s glory in this world to be adorned A perfect model life in loyalty Subservient, in essence - never free There’s only one way out, repeat to fade There’s no rewinding life, repeat to fade Remember where you are, repeat to fade Enjoy yourselves! Cause we know who you are, repeat to fade Everything is okay, you scum! There’s only one way out, repeat to fade Everything is okay! There’s no rewinding life, repeat to fade Remember where you are, repeat to fade Cause we know who you are, repeat to fade (Can you hear me?)
