Ishtar

Lyrics:

Another rise
In the cost of living
The food on the table
Is barely worth eating.
Try to spend less
Try to work harder 
But plans for the future 
Are put on the back burner 

Nothing is working
Nothing is working

Football team's
On a losing streak
So they're trying hard
To locate their weaknesses 
Tried new strategies 
Tried new coaches
But all of the grandstands
Are filling with cockroaches

Nothing is working
Nothing is working

A man is dating
A woman from eBay 
She looks pretty hot
But she smells like an ashtray
So many partners 
So many failures
She looks at her phone
So he chats up the waitresses

Nothing is working
Nothing is working

There is a car crash
And somebody's hurting 
They're cutting them out 
As time is deserting them
People watching 
Some stand around thinking
Some pray to their god
But no gods are listening 

Nothing is working
Nothing is working
Nothing is working
Nothing is working

Nothing Is Working

Of cults and cult leaders.

Lyrics:

Gave my heart to a highway 
A highway from hell 
Gave my soul to a system 
As do we all

There's a star in the heavens 
Spreading light from afar
Bringing wisdom to guide us
It is our lucky star

Lucky star lucky star 

We all travel a highway 
A highway from hell 
We will follow a leader
Who will spin a good tale

There's a star in the heavens 
Spreading love from afar
Very keen to remind us 
That it's our lucky star

Lucky star lucky star 

We are born on a highway 
A highway from hell 
We are born to deliver 
And deliver we will 

There's a star in the heavens 
Spreading lies from afar
Sowing fear to divide us
But it's our lucky star

Lucky star lucky star

Lucky Star

Wavefunctions

Spheres

Tear up the earth
Pour out the oceans
Call it progress
Or forward motion

Fill up the sky
With smoke from our passions
Fill up our hearts
With new fangled fashions

Every generation worse than before
I wonder did we even try before?
Every generation worse than  before
I wonder did we even try before?

Pave all the highways
Tear down the forests
Build a new house
For each of the tourists

Cut down the oak trees
Throw out the plastics
Forget the babies
When life becomes drastic

Every generation worse than before
I wonder did we even try before?
Every generation worse than  before
I wonder did we even try before?

It took me a long time to do this one, and I put in the hard work and dedication to make it happen. Extra special Thanks to Eat The Trees.

Lyrics:

Verse 1
Neon veins across a rusted sky
The data weeps, the circuits start to die
Synthetic prayers fall flat and cold
No algorithm can save a soul

Pre-Chorus
Circles spiral into dust (We traded truth for mirrored lies)
Faith corroded into rust (Then watched the sun implode inside our eyes)
History repeats with sterile grace 
A mirror cracked across all space

Chorus
We find the truth we left behind
No light, no gods, no grand design
Just echoes in a dead skyline
Collapse becomes our only friend
We are the end


Verse 2
Oceans rise with a frozen scream
Time unfolds like a broken dream
A paradise we forged in flame
Now no one's left to speak its name

Pre-Chorus
Circles spiral into dust (We traded truth for mirrored lies)
Faith corroded into rust (Then watched the sun implode inside our eyes)
History repeats with sterile grace 
A mirror cracked across all space

Chorus
We find the truth we left behind
No light, no gods, no grand design
Just echoes in a dead skyline
Collapse becomes our only friend
This is the END

THE END!
