Pain of Salvation
Album • 2020
Welcome to the new world Safe Sound Sublime A better and improved world For our mankind Welcome to the new world Please wait in line Just sign the dotted line, Sir Don't waste our time When the last drop of solidarity From the age of Aquarius Has boiled down to a tiny trickling stream Little grey men peek out on us Safe from thir bunker paper piles You see... They can kill but they don't like the wild We know it all But what have we learned? We have it all But what have we earned? We control it all But what do we yearn? We stand so tall But what have we burned? Welcome to the new world All want, no need See, the less your heart is in it The less you'll bleed Welcome to the new world Birthing the grind Now we only need a new you And you'll feel fine Safe from the passionate storm wave The hungry ocean of Life at our doorstep Now still We crawl out to rule another day And we are happy In our own detached little way "Now may the ocean sleep forever" We pray "Let the weather stay mild" We say You see... We can kill but we really don't like the wild Welcome to the future Welcome to the grind Welcome to the new you Just leave yourself behind

I have left you in the rain again You're still hoping for me to change Again For how long can you wait? I have left you in the rain again You're still hoping for me to change Again For how long can you wait? Wait Wait another day Wait another night Just wait another week Just wait another month Just wait another year For me to become I For things to become right While life will pass you by I will always try to change for you But I can seem to figure out How to (Life will pass you by now, while you wait for me) My heart and soul reside in you They do But my mind lives in each thought that passes through For how long can you wait? Wait Wait another day Wait another night Just wait another week Just wait another month Just wait another year For me to become I For things to become right My life will pass you by

There's a spot up in the ceiling I'm staring at when we touch It is not that I'm not feeling I'm feeling too much There's this moment when you're thinking That i'm not fully here It is not that I am not listening I'm listening to... ...everything that's all around The constant movement of the sky and ground Your voice just simply one of the thousand little sounds The roaming rivers in my mind We're fractals on the tide, our scope but pixel wide And you think I fail to see your side? Human human precious thing The center of your everything Concluding therefore that you must be interesting You talk about your jobs and dreams Your relatives, vacation plans, and football teams My mind just swiftly flows upstreams Every time I close my eyes I can hear the roar A thousand voices telling me You're heading for a fall Every day you lecture me On measure and control I cut my wings to keep you near 'Cause I'm keen to a fault You keep talking about focus Keep narrowing down my view But I feel so much more broken When I think like you Where you used to see dysfunction You must learn to see me I was learn for multireading Born to the stars I was born to dream

These woods are so dark I can't see my hands or my feet Still I'm not afraid I feel in my place and at ease When mankind is asleep I feel I can finally breathe Out here it is all clear There's a cost for my every need I stopped watching the news A long time ago No disaster felt new The same old mankind that I know My warmth comes from the trees And my food comes from the sea My supply of water drains visibly With each slow cup of tea I stopped feeling alone A long time ago I'm surrounded by life I'm surrounded by home I stopped watching the news It was hurting me so All that matters bleeds through Like plutonium glow Sometimes I hate my fucking species Yet most days I'll do anything to please it My generation was fooled to pursue our dreams But it is not what it seems You never need what you want And you rarely want what you need My generation was told we could be anything But that's a hope that deceives Those who fail will feel flawed But still fuller than those who succeed (Run run run forever) Heal our time Please heal our time Heal mankind Please heal mankind Oh Heal our time You can heal our time But don't heal my mind Sometimes I hate this fucking species Don't heal my mind Yet I'll do anything to please it Sometimes I hate my fucking species But try just anything just to fucking please it Sometimes I hate my fucking species You try just anything to fucking please it Sometimes I hate this fucking species

She keeps on calling me I keep hanging up It's not that I don't want to talk I just fear listening As a child it worried me That all the ones I loved would one day die I still recall when I realized I couldn't save them no matter how i tried I couldn't wait to be a man The grown-ups seemed to handle life just fine But here I am Still terrified See, growing up will just teach you how to smile I followed you from the sun in my childhood I followed you through the river to the sea I followed you where the waves turn to wasteland I followed you Now they follow me As a child I felt too old And now when I'm grown-up I feel too young A different kind so I've been told Just slightly out of reach and out of time I count the years to understand The faces of the friends I used to know I close my eyes and they're still the same How to mourn the living That are still around Yet somehow gone I followed you from the sun in my childhood I followed you through the river to the sea I followed you where the waves turn to wasteland I followed you Now they follow me I'm on my way now I'm mostly doing fine They rarely see me cry But you are always on my mind I'll live another night, I'll walk another mile But you are always on my mind I'm mostly doing fine They rarely see me cry But you are always on my mind I'll live another night, I'll walk another mile Still you are always on my mind She keeps on calling me She keeps on calling calling calling calling calling I'm on my way now She keeps on calling me I'm on my way now She keeps on calling calling calling calling I keep hanging up

You wanna be my friend? Well, come visit me, I'm right here Here in the deep end Storm-born, lull-bred, semi-tamed We seem to be the same, but I pretend Raw muscle in a noble frame Graceful and wild, I'm feline In a world gone canine And so I'm holding my breath Just waiting for the lull to end It was the wild who once willed this world Now the paper people try their best to keep it conserved With their papers and pens, scissoring pretty pink pins Keeping it tidy and trimmed like a big paper bin! Aah-ahh-ahh-ahh (Like a big paper bin) Aah-ahh--oh-ahh-oh-ahh (Like a big paper bin) How does it feel to be you? Say, how does it feel to be you? Anyway, who the hell do you think you are? Medicating everyone who's operating on a faster speed than you are? Sure, you may be right We might be burning our candles in every end But what the fuck, at least we burn, right? You? Well, meanwhile you're just standing there Just watching it, just measuring And harvesting its flame, snuffing it While pretending to be defending normality A never ending story of whatever you call sanity Calling us defective, really? Well, I just keep burning clutch Trying to keep the slower pace of you, the so-called normal The so-called effective How does it feel to be you? She once asked me I said, I feel like a panther Trapped in a dog's world How does it feel to be you? She once asked me I said, I feel like a panther Trapped in a dog's world How does it feel to be you? She once asked me I said, I feel like a panther Trapped in a dog's world How does it feel to be you? She once asked me I said, I feel like a panther Trapped in a dog's world How does it feel to be you? She once asked me I said, I feel like a panther Trapped How does it feel to be you? She once asked me I said, I feel like a panther Trapped in a dog's world A dog's world A dog's world A dog's world A dog's world

I live forever and a day I watch the sand fall from the sky I watch the mountains turn to sand I live forever and a day I watch the sand fall from the sky I watch the mountains turn to sand I live forever I live forever
