Oh, praise be to us The most intelligent organisms to gush forth from the womb of nature’s grand concourse, long may we reign We have each come to nature as unbidden guests Are we all blind mutations? Are we freaks of chance?

I’m Mr. Fahrenheit Taking my time among the delicate High, screaming me, mine and I So, tell me Aren’t those awful big words? And ain’t it such a cruel world? And ain’t we just spinning tops, lost So duplicitous, no, it’s never been us And entitlement will cut through any semblance of trust So, cut me down, light me up, man, I’m good, that’s enough I can’t bear to be around for when they see what we’ve done Mister, why so blue? Can’t you see the children smile at you? Slow down, Mister Blue Why do the others laugh at you? God, what have they done to you? Demented delicate, a twist in the spine I’ll take the dirt, take my chances with the bleach and the lime It’s alright Can we make all the pain go away? Just make it stop The tremor in my brain Oh, the nerve of the world! Oh, the gall and the hurt! The preacher men predict the second coming, oh lord! If we’re confused within an inch of our lives How much longer can we take our time? Mister, why so blue? Can’t you see the children smile at you? Slow down, Mister Blue Why do the others laugh at you? God, what have they done to you? If I’m losing my way If I’ve got nothing to gain Then why should I stay in a world full of pain? How much more can I take? How much longer can I stay? Mister, why so blue? Can’t you see the children smile at you? Slow down, Mister Blue Why do the others laugh at you? God, what have they done to you? Mister, why so blue? Why do the others laugh at you? God, what have they done to you?

It all set in so slow There's no light I fear the twilight of my prime Because right now it feels so much Like it’s gonna be the end of my little life I wanna drain the marrow 'fore I make old bones It's been really nice to know you but for now I gotta go I'm not long for this world It's nice to know, mwah So are we water without salubrity? We're not so bright for breathing cosmic debris No, we can’t see I want vertiginous height and speed That just might kill me I am not a spirit of a vision like those young lovelies And I'm never gonna feign an admission 'Cause that doesn't interest me I know there's much more left than this slow death That we all suffer at their behest But I just can't see What's happening to me Because I'm never gonna see what I'm missing with eyes on my feet And I'm never call this a living When it's all so rote and unhappy How can I say I made a change When I'm getting further every day? I'm not one for this world (From consistency, from some stability) It's nice to know, mwah So are we water without solubility? We're not so bright for breathing cosmic debris No, we can't see I want vertiginous height and speed That just might kill me One day you're here and the next day you're gone The only purpose I feel remains in song If Freddie wrote his Rhapsody at 29 Maybe I still have time for mine I know a poet will find no use for peace I know this is the only way it should be I'll be dead before I know I’m dying But it doesn’t feel unnatural to me So I howl at the sun It's taken years but I feel that I'm done Taking posies out my pockets We can all fall down, we can stop it There's no place for me, my ten dollar words And all the little vanities this world incurs It's sixes and sevens Can we create a heaven? So are we water without solubility? We're not so bright for breathing cosmic debris No, we can't see I want vertiginous height and speed (That just might kill me) So are we water without solubility? We're not so bright for breathing cosmic debris No, we can’t see I want vertiginous height and speed That just might kill me I am not a spirit of a vision like those young lovelies And I'm never gonna feign an admission 'Cause that doesn't interest me I know there's much more left than this slow death That we all suffer at their behest But I just can't see What's happening to me

I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? It's an open faucet of confluent bullshit We're all one, trying to make the best of it Now how much pain can I sustain? How much more can I inflict, is this it? You know you've got to build the house Before you let any guests in You need shelter, need a home in your own skin It mightn't be decadent but it cannot be desolate Where's the happiness? I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? If we can shut the fuck up Maybe we can learn to smile for once (I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready?) And we've all got something to say Living in a human menagerie (I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready?) We're each complete with the gall to believe Our problems are sophisticated, bold, unique Smiles with no teeth (Embraces with no squeeze) Gestures for manners, no audible "please" It's all been idle talk And I've had nothing of substance to say We talk about people Not about ideas or how we came to be this way This way If we can shut the fuck up Maybe we can learn to smile for once (I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready?) And we've all got something to say Living in a human menagerie (I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready?) I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready? If we can shut the fuck up Maybe we can learn to smile for once (I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready?) (Smile with no teeth, strung out, off key) And we've all got something to say Living in a human menagerie (I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready?) (Smile with no teeth, but your eyes I can believe) If we can shut the fuck up Maybe we can learn to smile for once (I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready?) (Smile with no teeth, strung out, off key) And we've all got something to say Living in a human menagerie (I'm ready to run, are you ready? I'm ready to run, are you ready?) (Smile with no teeth, but your eyes I can believe) I'm ready to run, are you ready?

In these corners like cocoons Lined with respiring relics I study phonetics Subtleties of facial expressions Were we happy here? How will it end? Without a song, a man ain't got a friend And the road don't bend I am governed by your image It instills in me A fraud, a greed, an inability To remain happy, to be content 'Cause there's nobody else I'd rather torment I want you to do all the things That I couldn't do To laugh with the depth of your stomach Like you used to Can't you see you're growing older too? And time has caught up with you Can't you see I'm growing older too? But I'm not the same as you I tried to don that heavenly white and I Try to dispel the calling of Hyde by night I feel the summon Insidious and negligent, it sullies a man Like I've never been enough as I am I've loathed people that have loved themselves I can't be happy if I can't be myself Paranoia controls me Will you set me free? Am I enough as I am? Can't you see you're growing older too? And time has caught up with you Can't you see I'm growing older too? But I'm not the same as you And please Don't say you love me Don't say you're sorry I know better than to believe you And I deserve no better Keep running faster You're almost free Believe me Can't you see you're growing older too? And time has caught up with you Can't you see I'm growing older too? But I'm not the same as you Can't you see you're growing older too? And time has caught up with you Can't you see I'm growing older too? But I'm not the same as you

I’m lost in reverie You and I are seventeen Everything is still, not a shake nor tremble And then slowly our loathing will interfere And our hatred begets a ubiquitous fear And now When it feels like there’s no control Are we forgetting that this place is our home? This blue-green spinning rock Orientation, nor race, no religion or name can earn Our hate We don't need height but width to unite No arms raised but arms strung along Nothing to fear except for fear itself We all feel love and pain We all bleed the same, don’t we? (don’t we?) The need for change is not the whim of an hour we can only break inertia with relinquished power If the yen of unity resides high and dry On the spotless mezzanine in the mortal mind and once Every drop of life has been wrung out of our pores Mark my words, this vast green earth will groan to turn Will we still insist on using our fists? We don’t need our fists to learn And when we are dead and truly alone Are we remembered by our faith or skin tone? Who we fuck, who we don’t? Or by our love of this life? The child still inside survives, our hate We don't need height but width to unite No arms raised but arms strung along Nothing to fear except for fear itself We all feel love and pain We all bleed the same, don’t we? (don’t we?) We don't need height but width to unite No arms raised but arms strung along Nothing to fear except for fear itself We all feel love and pain We all bleed the same, don’t we? (don’t we?) Don’t we?

Ladies and gentlemen Men, women and children Come, one and all! And behold the brutish fellow that defies all natural law! Confined to a cage of his own creation Governed by an arcane incantation Feast your eyes upon our most unholy aberration!

You contaminate my blood Now I’m not half the man I was Not beast, nor fiend have you made me simply a malady, an odious reek I’ve grown accustomed to the low-hanging fruit and the delight of my descent If there’s nothing left but this creeping death then, old friend, extend your hand Come, one and all and behold This aberration we hold Can you hear me? Can you feel it? Right here, watch the Lotus Eater Come, one and all and behold This aberration we hold You’ll never be, never be found Ain’t no destiny Nothing left for me ‘cause the self is a cell, consciousness is a penalty Look at me Fleeting by small degrees martyr and masochist rage in me She’s still here Louder with passing years, stronger than ever here So just gimme just a little death (just a little) Tell me that I'm different Don’t I deserve to begin again? Come, one and all and behold This aberration we hold Can you hear me? Can you feel it? Right here, watch the Lotus Eater Come, one and all and behold! This aberration we hold You’ll never be, never be found Raise your glass to the Lotus Eater as he drifts into the ether Flora, fauna born are devoid of the thorns We’ve shorn here I cannot close my eyes, can’t sleep at night I’m yearning And we will wax and wane We all wilt the same in this bell jar we’ve made But it’s the destiny, of glass to break Be not so long to speak for I long to die This anaesthetic is contriving a poltergeist Out of me I know I’ll never be rid of the agony I’ve survived Day in, day out The lotus in my mouth has been Dictating every move I make Just human, I’m afraid Come, one and all and behold This aberration we hold Can you hear me? Can you feel it? Right here, watch the Lotus Eater Come, one and all and behold This aberration we hold You’ll never be, never be found Flora, fauna born are devoid of the thorns We’ve shorn here I cannot close my eyes, can’t sleep at night I’m yearning We will wax and wane We all wilt the same in this bell jar we’ve made But it’s the destiny, of glass to break Flora, fauna born are devoid of the thorns We’ve shorn here I cannot close my eyes, can’t sleep at night I’m yearning We will wax and wane We all wilt the same in this bell jar we’ve made But it’s the destiny, of glass to break

There’s a murmur inside that I dispel On the sunny side of suffering, a miniature hell Now you’re gonna die, so am I Yet all we seem to do is just apologise so Carry on with the caterwaul Acting like we think we know it all We ain’t no marionettes Don’t you remember how we met? I want it big and blue I want it short and sweet Make me believe (make me believe) Can we be free? Who do you think you are? You’re neither here nor afar Taking our chances I want to swim in the clouds, dive straight into the ground Get up and climb then dive and try to fly again Swing low, let my people go Introduce a little vertigo A little less reality on those screens Take a step out your door and flood the streets There’s so much left for me here Than a squalid life of fear There’s so much left for me here than fear I want it big and blue I want it short and sweet Make me believe (make me believe) Can we be free? Who do you think you are? You’re neither here nor afar Taking our chances I want to swim in the clouds, dive straight into the ground Get up and climb then dive and try to fly again Get up, get up, get up, get up Go again Can the content of my character define my standing in this place? Not the labyrinth of deep twitching lines that I call an ageing face Now we learn to lie just to get by, just to close our eyes and to sleep at night I’m coming up right now Just to plummet into the ground I want it big and blue I want it short and sweet Make me believe (make me believe) Can we be free? Who do you think you are? You’re neither here nor afar Taking our chances I want to swim in the clouds, dive straight into the ground Get up and climb then dive and try to fly again Get up, get up, get up, get up Go again Who do you think you are? You’re neither here nor afar Taking our chances I want to swim in the clouds, dive straight into the ground Get up and climb then dive and try to fly again Get up, get up, get up Get up and climb then dive and try to fly again

This is my carcinogenic This is my diaphoretic I’ma burn so bright, you won’t forget it Ha, psychotropic set-in offers no more relief And when I pass the doors, the edge is beckoning me Fuck, why can’t I hang this shit up? On the verge of insanity, enough ain’t enough I try but I can’t breathe And I can’t speak Am I the man I see? (Woah, woah, oh woah) Harsh light, woah And everybody wants to be in that Now, are we not in that same position? Beneath this harsh light Pretty close but it’s not my best Better concentrate on everything that’s coming next 'Cause something fundamental’s fucking up in my head Ain’t no chemical imbalance justifies what I did You can’t have your cake and eat it too I’d rather get fucked up than to level with you Everybody has their masks and I got mine But I don’t wanna come alive at the expense of that shine (Woah, woah, oh woah Woah, woah, oh woah) Harsh light, woah And everybody wants to be in that Now, are we not in that same position? Beneath this harsh light All the pleasure in the world may transpire to be Mere mitigation, momentary relief Before I’m pushed back To the void until my next, my next, my next, my next, my reprieve (Woah, woah, oh woah) Harsh light, woah Everybody wants to be in that Now, are we not in that same position? Beneath this harsh light Hey, hey

Nothing can intervene once the thought takes wing Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me If you never slow down, you might never grow old So go on, keep borrowing what little joy you can from tomorrow If you feel like you have to run and that you’ve always hidden Nigh is the time to revolt against the voices within All of our lives pass us by without us knowing Joy is not a privilege but a human right All are baptised by fire Happiness contingent on anything, isn’t happiness Suicide kept in the back pocket keeps us from finding it We may be plagued by a glitchy condition But your voice isn’t forbidden, speak up Maybe we’re dredging up the discontent We’ve held subconsciously An-accumulation of the pain we’re not acknowledging But by and by, my dear friend we’ll survive Things are hard right now but we can capitalise on this pain If you feel like you have to run and that you’ve always hidden Nigh is the time to revolt against the voices within All of our lives pass us by without us knowing Joy is not a privilege but a human right All are baptised by fire Freedom just cannot wait No, not another day And I won’t be what I became Freedom just cannot wait No, not another day And I won’t be what I became And if you just listen close I know that you’ll hear it A purposeful pulse Engulfs the world you’ve always known If you feel like you have to run and that you’ve always hidden Nigh is the time to revolt against the voices within All of our lives pass us by without us knowing Joy is not a privilege but a human right All are baptised by fire Freedom just cannot wait No, not another day And I won’t be what I became Freedom just cannot wait No, not another day And I won’t be what I became
