Ready To Go

Are we having a power cut? 
Are your lights still on? (Are your lights still on?) 
Let’s head to the power station 
Find out what’s really going on (I'd like to know)

Keep watching the horizon but it don’t come 
Keep holding back the idle tears of want 
They say you’re not ready to go

Tearing your heart right out
They just say we’ll let you know (We'll let you know)
And was it an accident? 
The way they served you up whole (They served you whole)

Keep watching the horizon but it don’t come 
Keep holding back the idle tears of want 
They say you’re not ready to go

Monster
I was holding out a hope that you would fight for me
I was hoping you might see all the things I’ve done for you
Standing on the edge
Hoping I don’t fall into that precipice
I would like to let it loose
Something I’ve learnt not to do

So I’ll wait, I’ll hold
Hold on to that feeling 
Trying not to lose control

I was holding on to hate, instead of lashing out
I was hoping you might stay instead of breeding doubt
Standing on the edge
Hoping I don’t fall into that precipice
I would like to let it loose
Something I’ve learnt not to do

So I’ll wait, I’ll hold
Hold on to that feeling
Trying not to lose control
Cos there’s a monster within
Always scratching at the edges 
Trying to find a way to get in

Hoping I don’t fall into that precipice
I would like to let it loose
Something I’ve learnt not to do-oh-oh-woah
I loved you how can this be true? 
I would like to let it loose
Something I’ve learnt not to do-ooh-oh-woah-oh-woah
I would like to let it loose
Something I’ve learnt not to

So I’ll wait, I’ll hold
But every little monster knows he’s gonna lose control

The Meaning Of Life

He read it in a magazine
A vision of the future obscene
Soon enough when the world begins resembling
It's all too late
As if once he thought of it
somebody was bound to realise it
Don't you know when you open up
Pandora's box there's no closing it
It's right in front of me
The life I was gonna lead
There isn't much hope for it now

Forget about the meaning of life 
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive

Now war's not fought for victory
It's just a process to destabilise things
Just a means to an end while they play that lonely game
Behind closed doors
Now nobody reads the magazines
And the shops are filled with vending machines
I wander through near empty streets
Where no one speaks
It's all 2D
And there's no complexity
Just the right and the wrong of things
So it isn't hard to obey

Forget about the meaning of life 
I wish that I could see it all in black and white
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life 
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive

Forget about the meaning of life 
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life 
I wish that I could make you feel alive
But it's too late to try, try, try

You cut me off, you're a phantom limb
You're a part of me, I'm a part of you 
Might be comforting except for the pain I'm in

You cut me off, you're a phantom limb
I feel your presence in everything
Can't sleep at night cos I'm scared of dreams
No one tells me what's happening

You cut me off, you're a phantom limb
You're a part of me, I'm a part of you 
Might be comforting except for the pain I'm in

It's been worse for me since I learned the truth
I don't want to feel like I'm chasing you
Every body says that I'm being a fool
I don't know what I wanna do

You cut me off, you're a phantom limb
You're a part of me, lying in bed with him
That's not comforting, no, but that's what is happening

Following the ghosts of memories
This city is like a cemetery 
For past lives, what used to be
You can't help it but you're haunting me
Like a dreamer trapped in a dream
I can't awake from fantasy
Now it's so dark and I can't help it
I am falling in
You can't cut off a memory
Can't cut off a memory

You cut me off but I'm memory
It don't seem right, but it may still be
It hurt inside to let the killer go free
Number it all with the evil weed

Jack-knifed but I'm cauterised
Didn't feel the maniacal twist inside
Tell me about your dreams last night?
It didn't feel I'm not gonna lie

You cut me off you're a phantom limb
You're a part of me, part of everything
That's not comforting, no, but that's what is happening

Phantom Limb

Lyrics:

Put your finger down on the big red button
All your stars have inhibitions
Held in check by their big ambitions
Self-destructive demolition

You live a little lie, live a little lie all the time
(Life's too short to waste my time)
You live a little lie, live a little lie and then you die
(It's not what you say it's what you hide)

The big red button
The big red button

Ooh, you're gonna lose
You got every little thing confused
Why'd you even try today
Whispered doubts unfaced
My future's been erased
Why'd you even get out of bed today?

Gathered up fragments of the life you shook
You'd do anything to turn back the clock
Pressed dried flower in the pages of a book
The scent's still pure if you'd open up

You live a little lie, live a little lie all the time
(Life's too short to waste my time)
You live a little lie, live a little lie and then you die
(It's not what you say it's what you hide)

The big red button
The big red button

Ooh, you're gonna lose
You got every little thing confused
Why'd you even try today?
Every little thing you say
Gets taken the wrong way
I only ran a mile
Instead of coming to your aid
Why'd you have to run away?
Why'd you tell me half the tale?
In time things will be okay once again

The big red button
