We know your name
We know your number
We know every little spell that you've been under
Every dirty little secret
Every dirty little lie
Every thing that would make your neighbors wonder why
Every thing you desire to possess
Every thing over which you obsess
Every thing you want
Every thing you need
Every thing that can be used to make you bleed
All your life's chapters that you don't read aloud
Are waiting patiently deep inside the cloud
You're invisible until you're not
Just until that meme you're in gets hot
Now that the crosshairs are aimed at you
Will you be able to see it through

Misinformation Overload
06:03
|

Peeping through the keyhole
Peeking through the blinds
Just a narrow field of vision is with us all the time
Style over substance
Shadows on the wall
I'm just trying to survive here
I can't absorb, can't absorb it all
Stirring up the base
Cranking up the hate
No one will call them on it until it's much too late
The fuse is getting short
Time is running out
Ignorance is winning
You've got to see there cant be any doubt
I've got too much misinformation
I've got too much on my mind
I'm giving in to procrastination
Misinformation overload is keeping me blind
Corporate media owned by just a few
No one left to question what they're telling you to do
Tell you to live in fear
Tell you to live in hate
It's your patriotic duty
There's no time, there's no time to abdicate
I've got too much misinformation
I've got too much on my mind
I'm giving in to procrastination
Misinformation overload it's keeping me blind
I've got too much misinformation
There's just too too much trying to dull my mind
It's been so long I feel acclimation
Misinformation overload trying to keep us blind
Misinformation
Misinformation

Never Give In
04:04
|

So distressed about the shape we're in
Sliding to dark ages
Don't even know where to begin
Or how to turn the pages
How difficult is it to be kind?
How hard to empathize?
Seems it's easier to stay blind
To stay here hidden in disguise
It'd be easier to let it slide
It'd be easier to run and hide
But that would be virtual suicide
Never gonna give in
Never give in
Never gonna give in yeah
Never gonna give in
Never give in
Never gonna give in yeah
Divide and conquer is the oldest game
But it works so well they ain't never gonna change it
Turning off the evening news
I'll find my own truth
I'm not going to waste it
It'd be easier to let it slide
It'd be easier to run and hide
But that would be virtual suicide
There's a new day dawning
Let this serve as a warning
Got no time for your lies
Never gonna give in
Never give in
Never gonna give in yeah
Never gonna give in
Never give in
Never gonna give in yeah

Music and lyrics copyright Bill Cornish 2017
Published by Athanasia Music, ASCAP
------------------------------------------
Hey there Mr. One Percent
Do you think you're Heaven-sent?
Do you think it's self-evident
That we are yours to ignore
How can you believe
How can you deceive yourself
Have you no goals to achieve
Have you no pain to relieve
For no one but yourself ?
Hey there Mr. One Percent
No need for you to pay your own rent
No need for you to repent
Your sins are all your own
Hey there Mr. One Percent
Now that you've bought the fucking government
And you've locked up all the dissidents
There's no need to atone
I don't wanna be
In this reality TV show any more
I don't wanna be
In this reality TV show any more

Dreaming Away
05:11
|

Life
A momentary glimpse
A window to the universe
So sad to see so many dreaming it all away
In spiritual fallacies
Dreamin' dreamin'
Dreamin' away
Dreamin' dreamin'
Dreamin' away
Dreamin'
Dream away
Don't keep living for the next life
This moment is all you own
Keep your eyes on the road
Your heart in this moment
Let this be your cornerstone
Breathe in life and love
The stars the fields the forests
Know that you're home
Dreamin' dreamin'
Dreamin' away
Dreamin' dreamin'
Dreamin' away
Dreamin'
Dream away

Trip wire
Trip wire
Comfortable inside my bubble
Here alone I'm safe from trouble
Trip wire
Heart's on the line
Trip wire
Wait for a sign
Take no action
Feel no pain
It's just abstraction
I can't explain
Trip wire
Heart's on the line
Trip wire
I'm doing fine

Suddenly
Everything's all right
Suddenly
I am at peace
Suddenly
Vision's getting clearer
Suddenly
Calm washes over me
Soul's full smiling
Life's inviting
No more waiting
Anticipating
Suddenly
I'm in the place I'm supposed to be
Suddenly
I feel free
Soul's full smiling
Life's inviting
No more waiting
Anticipating
Suddenly
I'm in the place I'm supposed to be
Suddenly
I feel free
Soul's full smiling
Life's inviting
No more waiting
