Well you scream in the night cause you know that it's right and you know...

Cold Pounding Rain Blind Stone Fortress Tame Mind Howl Creature In Side Fear Stricken Bleak Time Pain Fortress In Side I want to scream to end this dream But darkness suffocates My soul has become buried under old teutonic plates Dead Lies Burn Old Thoughts Churn Dead Lies Burn Old Thoughts Crumble Churn Take this all away I cannot face another day I’d rather go…no…not what I had in mind Where’s my show? Oh I am missing my Bravo Take me back...

Droid 02:03
What's the attraction of glowing distractions that constantly emanate from this device in my hand? Quarterback fantasy, metal blog ramblings, It's been 10 days since I set foot on unpaved land. But I've got no time the green light's flashing What the status? Who's been texting me? Two weeks in Kenya I still can remember, You lay unattended. Your signal was dead and gone. But back in the states I was touching your face, And I couldn't believe we had been apart for so long. Your my portal to the world. I cannot find my way without you. Good lord, I am annoyed. I am a Droid. Touch me, feed me, hold me, charge me. Don't talk to anybody. You don't need a body. Wake up in the morning, I'm the first thing you reach for. Humanity Technology at war!

Police State 03:41
They keep on saying that this is the end But you know that we've heard it before. Feels like they're sucking up all of the power But they still keep asking for more. We gotta take control and wrestle back the gold From the ones who took it away. But it's hard to make a move when they're always watching you And you're trying to just get through the day. It's Lonely, and it's frightening outside. And you're only trying to keep yourself alive. You better watch your back. Clean your plate. Cuz you know we're living in a Police State. Pay your debt. Watch your weight. But don't you ever think about running away. But it's lonely, and we're barely getting by. Are the cronies trying to starve us from inside? They keep on looking for the mark of the beast On every goddamn thing that they see. Feels like we've living in a bad sit-com Just watching ourselves on the screen. So we got a new control from the Apple Store We don't want to be left behind. But the ceiling got raised and the $ got slain By the fascists who control our mind. But they're only trying to keep us laying down. So we've only got to burn it the ground. You better watch your back. Clean your plate. Cuz you know we're living in a Police State. Take your stand. Seal your fate. But don't you ever think about running away. You better watch your back. Clean your plate. Cuz you know we're living in a Police State. Pay your debt. Watch your weight. But don't you ever think about running away. You better watch your back. Clean your plate. Cuz you know we're living in a Police State. Make your bed. Stay up late. But don't you ever think about running away.

Licensed 01:56
I don't wanna be licensed I don't wanna be used Don't wanna be licensed Fuck you Don't line me up to your picture I didn't write it for you Don't wanna be licensed Fuck you Wait a minute now I just changed my mind Cut out the third verse Don't pay it now mind Let's re-record it on my own dime Just give me a chance to set up my publishing line Now I wanna be licensed I really like your shampoo I think my sound is enticing Don't you? Wait a minute now That song sounds like mine Did you use it in the rough cut before it went online? Who re-recorded it, some Santa Monica swine? The musicologist said it didn't violate my mind

Feed 03:19
I can’t keep up with the feed no more. Am I falling behind? It can’t be sure. I’ve got four windows open but I’m still bored. Can’t keep up with the scene no more. Programmable pablum online snore. I’ve got five windows open looking at some suckers pitchfork score. Oh and I’m searching for the feeling that I got the day before. You told me to forget it since the world was still at war. I can’t keep up with the dream no more. Did we already make it? I can’t be sure. I’ve got six strings tuned and ready, but no one’s there to score. Can’t go on like this much more. Solitary confinement, 10 to 4. Never thought I’d be a 9 to 5-er but it might beat dead and poor. Are you working? Who’s hiring? Are you looking? I’m trying. Are you ready to buck it up and do some dirty chores? Oh do you ever get the feeling that the world has passed you by? You told me to forget it so I guess I better not cry. I can’t give in to the demon’s roar Aimlessly surfing on an endless tour. Got a four year old sweetie, and she needs me for the pizza store. Can’t keep up with the fear no more. Beating up Justice, tell me what for? I’ve got one window open and one foot out the door. So shut the window and take me out the door!

Cloud 03:36
Don’t let the tangles of wires control you No need to pile em all around Plenty of virtual arms to hold you And all the tracks you’re laying down No need to handle your assets Just pass them all along to me I’ll store them up here inside my network Unless your ass forgets to pay the fee So don’t be late the hour of freedom is upon us Go out and make your momma proud Drag and drop your worries, come and join the party Celebrate in the cloud Be the first of your friends to like this Help me pump up my stats I need a good buzz to start around me Pat myself on the back Communicate in the cloud Participate in the cloud Vegetate in the cloud

Screen 05:28
You got a number in the city, But you never learned to dance. You got an offer that was pretty, But you never took a chance. Tried your best to pinch your pennies. Tried to make the moment last. Left a dollar on the table. Left a sip inside the glass. You couldn't see, you were already free, But you just want to watch that Screen. You tried your best not to be naughty But you clicked it just the same Hoped nobody was a lookin’ So happy that you hadn’t paid Feels like the seasons are a loopin’ And the shuffle’s on repeat Left a quarter in the washer And put a sneaker on your feet You couldn’t see that you were already free But you just wanna touch that screen How could it be? You’re not out on the scene Cause you just want to touch that screen Now it’s time to crunch the numbers Oh can’t you hear the piper play Wondering how they got your number And why you sit inside all day Feels like the music is a loopin’ And the verse is kinda weak Bounce it down and start another Go get a caffeinated treat You couldn’t see that you were already free But you just wanna touch that screen How could it be? You’re not out on the scene Cause you just want to touch that screen

Opened up Arthur and what did I see? Indie rock's rockin' much harder these days. Now that the Rapture have lost all their fangs Indie rock's sounding a bit more like the Bangs. Now that it's been sold to the blood sucking freaks Indie's not rockin like it used to be. Wasn't into the phonies on Indie 103 Had to settle for metal fake faked by Drag City. When Devendra picked up the electric guitar Indie rock started rockin little bit more hard. Got a Toyota Scion parked out in my yard And indie rock's rockin at my neighborhood bar.
