It was an accidental run-in at the hotel bar
She was starin' at me with the brightest eyes
And I was just starin' back
She looked so familiar
Like an old-school friend
But that wasn't it
It was the sunlight shinin' in

And she was lightin' up my night
And she was lightin' up my life
And I knew I had to make her mine
And I just knew

I want her for the rest of my life
She keeps me up all night
She makes the sun rise in the mornin'
She gives me butterflies
She's one of a kind
Oh
I want her for the rest of my life

And now she's dancin' to the songs that she wants to play
And I'm just playin' along
She's got me in the palm of her hand
Now I know that this is gonna be the night that changes my life
And I gotta say somethin'
I gotta make her mine

'Cause she's lightin' up my night
And she's lightin' up my life
And I knew I had to make her mine
And I just knew

I want her for the rest of my life
She keeps me up all night
She makes the sun rise in the mornin'
She gives me butterflies
She's one of a kind
Oh
I want her for the rest of my life

So I walked right over with a stupid, nervous line
She just laughed and told me, "Boy, you'll be just fine"
And we talked for hours 'til the bar was closin' down
Felt like we were the only two people in this town
Every single word she said was everything I thought
Suddenly, the future was a battle to be fought

Every song I used to hear just sounded out of tune
Every lonely midnight underneath the moon
Was nothing like the fire I see burning in your eyes
You turned all my quiet whispers into battle cries
And I never knew a heart could beat this fast, this loud, this true
I never knew what love was 'til the moment I found you

I want you for the rest of my life!
You're the one who keeps me up all night! (Up all night!)
You make the sun rise in the mornin'
You give me butterflies! (Oh, you do!)
You're one of a kind!
Oh!
I want you for the rest of my life!

For the rest of my life...
Oh, the rest of my life...
You give me butterflies...
Yeah, you're one of a kind...
For the rest of my life.

For the rest of my life

Lyrics:
Oh my god
It is eating me
Look in the mirror
Oh god
It is me
Be afraid
It's the big bad wolf
See me grin
It's the great big bad wolf

I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry

'Cause I have become the monster
(Oh, I've become the monster)
'Cause I have become the monster
(Oh, I've become the monster)

Yes
I'm scared of what I am
I'm not me
I'm not human
I'm afraid of what I've become
A man and a monster in one

I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry

'Cause I have become the monster
(Oh, I've become the monster)
'Cause I have become the monster
(Oh, I've become the monster)

Lyrics:
I still see that old hallway light
From when I'd visit Friday nights
I came to see your sister then
Never thought I'd find a friend
You were just a kid of twelve
Putting books up on a shelf
With messy hair and curious eyes
A funny, welcome, small surprise.

Oh, my little sparkle, full of glee
The friend you've always been to me
You're my sunshine, sweet and true
And I'll always be here for you
Though not by blood, it's crystal clear
You're the reason joy is here
My little sparkle, shine so bright
You make everything feel right!

We didn't build our forts with chairs
We talked of triumphs and despairs
Of homework, crushes, dreams, and strife
As you stepped into your own life
I gave advice I thought was grand
Offered up a helping hand
And watched that kid I knew back then
Become the woman, a true friend.

Oh, my little sparkle, full of glee
The friend you've always been to me
You're my sunshine, sweet and true
And I'll always be here for you
Though not by blood, but my sis thats clear
You're the reason joy is here
My little sparkle, shine so bright
You make everything feel right!

I've watched you grow up, year by year
And always tried to keep you near
Not as a brother, not by right
Just as a friend, a steady light
You still remind me how to be
A little braver, and more free
You're a gift, a precious thing
The purest happiness you bring.

Oh, my little sparkle, full of glee
The friend you've always been to me
You're my sunshine, sweet and true
And I'll always be here for you
Though not by blood, it's crystal clear
You're the reason joy is here
My little sparkle, shine so bright
You make everything feel right!

Yeah, you make everything feel right
My truest friend, my guiding light.
The sister fate just gave to me,
My little sparkle... Kylie.
I love you.

Oh, my little Sparkle (Cover)

[Verse 1 ]
They sterilized the angels and they put them on display
Gave us pretty little pills to smile the truth away
We're the product of the godless, in the church of the mundane
Washing down our sanity with novocaine and rain
Every screen's a stained-glass window, every headline is a prayer
Breathing in the atmosphere of manufactured air
I'm another empty specimen, a bug inside a jar
Just a smiling, dead celebrity… without the fancy car.

[Chorus]
Oh, this beautiful sickness is divine
Drink the poison, baby, it tastes just like wine
Let the rot set in, it’s a glamourous decay
We will love you better when you’ve faded all away.

[Verse 2]
I cut myself on razor-wire fences made of fame
And learned to love the bleeding just to hear them scream my name
The freak show needs a new messiah, a martyr for the bored
I'm the hole inside of holy, I'm the devil they adored
You can paint my skin with diamonds, you can fill my head with lies
But I've seen the maggots crawling in your "perfect" paradise
This is the new religion, the sacrament of the numb
Bow your head and take your medicine until the kingdom comes.

[Chorus]
Oh, this beautiful sickness is divine
Drink the poison, baby, it tastes just like wine
Let the rot set in, it’s a glamourous decay
We will love you better when you’ve faded all away.

[Bridge]
I am the virus in the clean room.
I am the glitch in your design.
I am the scream in the operating theater…
AND THIS FLAW IS MINE!

[Chorus]
OH, THIS BEAUTIFUL SICKNESS IS DIVINE!
DRINK THE POISON, BABY, IT TASTES JUST LIKE WINE!
LET THE ROT SET IN, IT’S A GLAMOUROUS DECAY
WE WILL LOVE YOU BETTER WHEN YOU’VE FADED ALL AWAY!

[Outro]
Faded away…
Pretty and faded…
Perfectly faded…
…gone.

Perfectly faded RMX

[Verse 1]
Yeah…
We drew the blueprints on a napkin, sketched a city in the stars
Bought the hype and sold the future, never showed 'em all the scars
Promised them a golden era, built on circuits and on trust
Didn't see the wires fraying, didn't see the coming rust
Now the rain that falls is digital, the sky's a glitching screen
And the kingdom that we fought for is the coldest place I've seen
I walk through empty avenues we swore would teem with life
Cutting through the silence with a cold and quiet knife.

[Pre-Chorus]
I see the ghosts of what we planned in every pixelated light
I hear the echo of a promise fading in the endless night
This perfect world is breaking, I can feel the system crash…

[Chorus]
We're living in a Neon Wasteland, a paradise undone!
I'm deleting all the memories, erasing every one!
This beautiful illusion was a lie we couldn't keep
So I'll set this dream on fire while the architects all sleep!

[Verse 2]
You still patrol the borders of this dream we overran
Pointing at the schematics, saying "stick to the damn plan"
You polish all the chrome until it shines just like a tear
Ignoring all the warning signs, pretending not to hear
The core is in meltdown, but you're fixing up the fence
And none of this utopia is making any sense
You're ruling over ashes, calling everything just fine
But your revolution is no longer mine.

[Pre-Chorus]
I see the cracks inside your code, the flaws you can't disguise
I'm tired of the fiction I can see behind your eyes
This perfect world is breaking, I can feel the system crash…

[Chorus]
We're living in a Neon Wasteland, a paradise undone!
I'm deleting all the memories, erasing every one!
This beautiful illusion was a lie we couldn't keep
So I'll set this dream on fire while the architects all sleep!

[Bridge]
We built it all so high just to watch it all fall…
Was any of it real? Was any of it real at all?

[Chorus]
WE'RE LIVING IN A NEON WASTELAND, A PARADISE UNDONE!
I'M DELETING ALL THE MEMORIES, ERASING EVERY ONE!
THIS BEAUTIFUL ILLUSION WAS A LIE WE COULDN'T KEEP
SO I'LL SET THIS DREAM ON FIRE WHILE THE ARCHITECTS ALL SLEEP!

[Outro]
System failure.
Reboot required.

Neon Wasteland (Nu Mix)

Neon Wasteland

[Verse 1]
Yeah...
A silhouette in a crowded room, just a face without a name
I paint a smile on, play the part, but the feeling stays the same
Every word I try to speak gets swallowed by the sound
Like I'm screaming underwater, watching everyone else drown
In the noise, in the static of a world that moves too fast
Try to hold on to the present, but I'm haunted by the past
Another crack in the foundation, another chip off the stone
Stuck inside this echo chamber, talking to myself alone.

[Pre-Chorus]
I see the fire in your eyes is fading out to grey
I hear the whispers of the words you're too afraid to say
The air is getting heavy, I can feel the coming storm...

[Chorus]
I'm breaking through the silence that you hide behind!
Shattering the mirrors you left in my mind!
This quiet desperation is a war you'll never win
I won't let the static pull you in!

[Verse 2]
I trace the battle lines on maps that only I can read
Planting promises like flowers, but they suffocate like weeds
You reach for me, but all you feel is a ghost inside the shell
A prisoner in a paradise I built to be my hell
I know you're on the outside, trying to break the lock and key
But the architect of this whole prison, yeah, the architect is me.
So I turn the volume louder, let the feedback fill the space
Anything to just erase the look that's on your face.

[Pre-Chorus]
I see the fortress that you've built is about to fall
I'm screaming back to answer every single silent call
The air is getting heavy, I can feel the coming storm...

[Chorus]
I'm breaking through the silence that you hide behind!
Shattering the mirrors you left in my mind!
This quiet desperation is a war you'll never win
I won't let the static pull you in!

[Bridge]
Can you hear me now?
Through all the noise...
Can you hear me now?

[Chorus]
I'M BREAKING THROUGH THE SILENCE THAT YOU HIDE BEHIND!
SHATTERING THE MIRRORS YOU LEFT IN MY MIND!
THIS QUIET DESPERATION IS A WAR YOU'LL NEVER WIN
I WON'T LET THE STATIC PULL YOU IN!

[Outro]
...the static pulls you in...
...pulls you in...
...gone...

The static pulls you in

Flickering screens, the brand new gods we bleed for
Swipe to the left, you're nothing but a cheap whore
For validation, a digital salvation
We trade the soul for pixelated masturbation
Your cerebrum's a wasteland, a silicon tomb
Growing thumbs but you're shrinking in this neon room
Got your politics from a meme, your morals from a headline
Welcome to the bottom of the evolutionary timeline

Oh, look at the pretty monkeys, tapping on the glass
They think they're so enlightened, but they're sinking oh so fast
We paint our faces, with filters and with lies
The glitter of the gutter reflects in our dead eyes
I’ll be your Darwinian goddess, your devolution queen
In this septic paradise, this pornographic scene
Let me whisper sweet nothings, straight into your skull
While everything that made you human becomes numb and dull

BANG BANG! Goes the hammer on the nail
WE'RE GOING NEANDERTHAL, OFF THE FUCKING RAIL
SCREAM SCREAM! In your echo-chamber hell
WE'RE DEVOLVING, CAN'T YOU FUCKING TELL?
Trade your brain for a fist, your reason for a grunt
This is the new age, the thrill of the hunt!

We cancelled Shakespeare, but we celebrate the brute
Stomping on the flowers to taste the bitter root
Intelligence is treason, compassion is a plague
Your empathy is just another trend, beautifully vague
We build our towers higher, just to piss on those below
Apes in tailored suits, enjoying the shit-show
Forget the fire of Prometheus, we just want to watch things burn
A lesson in regression, it's the point of no return

Remember pretty words? They're just bones to pick and chew
The only truth is violence, for me and now for you
Let's tear down all the libraries, and dance upon the books
And judge our fellow man by his fists and dirty looks
I’ll wear a crown of barbed-wire, you can wear your crown of thorns
In this kingdom of the stupid, where the new monsters are born
Let the grunting be our anthem, the screaming be our prayer
In the static of the future, there's nothing but despair

BANG BANG! Goes the hammer on the nail
WE'RE GOING NEANDERTHAL, OFF THE FUCKING RAIL
SCREAM SCREAM! In your echo-chamber hell
WE'RE DEVOLVING, CAN'T YOU FUCKING TELL?
Trade your brain for a fist, your reason for a grunt
This is the new age, the thrill of the hunt!

You feel the itch?
Under the skin...
The beast within?
Let it begin.
No more thinking.
No more pain.
Just the simple, brutal, beautiful, ugly rain
Of blood and ignorance... wash us clean again!

BANG BANG! GOES THE HAMMER ON THE NAIL
WE'RE GOING NEANDERTHAL, OFF THE FUCKING RAIL
SCREAM SCREAM! IN YOUR ECHO-CHAMBER HELL
WE'RE DEVOLVING, CAN'T YOU FUCKING TELL?
TRADE YOUR BRAIN FOR A FIST, YOUR REASON FOR A GRUNT
THIS IS THE NEW AGE, THE THRILL OF THE HUNT!

De-vo-lu-tion...
De-vo-lu-tion...
The future is... primitive... perfect...


We're going neanderthal

In concrete veins, the poison flows
The city breathes, a dying rose
We sold the sky for a little more light
Now a rusting sun bleeds into the night
The children play with bones and wire
Setting their plastic dreams on fire
Yeah, we built our heaven on a fault line crack
And we all know there's no turning back

I wear my skin like a porcelain tear
A pretty shell for all the fear
We are the glass-eyed dolls on display
Winding down at the end of the day
Our lullabies are the static's hiss
Sealed with a sterile, digital kiss
We traded our souls for a silicon dream
And nobody hears you when the future screams

This is the eulogy for the unborn
The anthem for the beautifully torn
So let's dance on the ashes of our last desire
And feed our hearts to the growing fire
Welcome, welcome to the final show
We are the afterglow
The future is a cancer in a sugar-coat
The last prayer stuck in a dying throat

God is a glitch in the mainframe's hum
A broken promise for the deaf and dumb
The angels are choking on acid rain
Selling salvation for a little more pain
We crucify ourselves on screens of blue
For a 'like', a 'share', a "we love you"
It's the new religion, the sacred lie
A perfect world where we all can die

Love is a code we forgot how to write
A ghost that flickers in the pale moonlight
I trace the scars on your vacant face
Another product I can't replace
We whisper secrets in algorithms deep
While our hollow bodies are fast asleep
This empty stage is our only home
Under a broken, holographic dome

This is the eulogy for the unborn
The anthem for the beautifully torn
So let's dance on the ashes of our last desire
And feed our hearts to the growing fire
Welcome, welcome to the final show
We are the afterglow
The future is a cancer in a sugar-coat
The last prayer stuck in a dying throat

Countdown to zero!
We are the beautiful ruin!
Inhale the fallout!
Exhale the human!
We are the virus and the cure, so pure, so pure!

This is the eulogy for the unborn
The anthem for the beautifully torn
So let's dance on the ashes of our last desire
And feed our hearts to the growing fire
Welcome, welcome to the final show
We are the afterglow
The future is a cancer in a sugar-coat
The last prayer stuck in a dying throat

The afterglow...
We are the afterglow...
fade to nothing... (nothing)

The afterglow
