Eyes

You're stayin' up all night
She woke you from your slumber
Hastily she comes to wrap you
'Round her finger
A whole new world
You're livin' in a whole new world
(Mmm)
Everything's green
Built by machines
I'll order take away
Discover nature
Gazin' at stars by the side of a motorway
The city life
This is the life you want
You want?
You've got your eyes on her
And you can't turn away
No, you can't turn away
You've got your eyes on her
And you can't turn away
No, you can't turn away
Eyes
Ooh oh ah
Eyes
Ooh oh ah
Now is the time when all of this
Just feels so simple
Have a drink
Fall in love
Meet new people
A cog in the wheel
But such a beautiful wheel
(Mmm)
Violent crime
Nothing's on time
The most creative people
Concrete, culture
Brick and mortar
Everyone is equal
The city lights
This is the life you want
You want?
You've got your eyes on her
And you can't turn away
No, you can't turn away
You've got your eyes on her
And you can't turn away
No, you can't turn away
Eyes
Ooh oh ah
Eyes
Ooh oh ah
Eyes
Ooh oh ah
Eyes
Ooh oh ah

System Change
04:25

Calling for system change
To let me feel
Livin' in a new age
(Na-na-na-na-na-no)
So let's be real
Need a life update
A little love patch
Need some social aid
Not an escape hatch
But we're wearing masks
Walking down the street
And our enemy
Our mortality
Calling for system change
We heard it in the alley way
We're gonna shake things up
Force this town wide awake
'Cause we've had enough
Of all the killing in our name
Is there no stopping now?
Is it so hard to admit we've turned the wrong way?
Calling for system change
I saw it on a hacker page, yeah
They said, they said, they sa-a-i-a-aid
We're gonna beat them at their own ga-a-ame
Won't be ready when it hits them
But we go
On and on and on about
All the things we'd do when finally
We are the ones who have
A voice to fix our broken dreams
We go
On and on and on about
The facts, the things we think that matter
Leaving what is real behind
But I just have to ask
Why is that boy
Falling down?
Where is his father
To help him now?
Why is that man
Cursing so?
Bringing us all down (all down)
To his level -el -el
Why is that boy
Falling down?
Where is his father
To help him now?
Why is that man
Cursing so?
Bringing us all down (all down)
To his level -el -el
Calling for system change
(I heard it everywhere)
Calling for system change
(Change, change)
Calling for system change
(I see it in your hair)
Calling for system change
(Change, change, change, oh!)

Gets You Down
02:36
|
|||
It's what you can't do
It's what you can't do
It's what you can't
It's what you can't do
It's what you can't do
It's what you can't do
That gets you down
That always gets you down
Yeah it
Always comes around
Just to get you down
'Cause you had five
Short minutes left
To just spend here on your own
But for your life
You can't handle that stress
So you open up your phone
And there it is
The images
Your country's a mess
Don't you ever forget
And stop
Don't you take another bite
You're killing the climate
With your appetite
Oh, oh
The makeup makes their skin shine
You can do it too, one click to order online
Oh, but
Your ratio is fucked up
Whatever you do you won't get enough love
Whatever you do you won't get enough love
Whatever you do you won't get enough love
Whatever you do, oh
In this life
Why is it so hard to have a good time
I feel the guilt of a generation on my shoulder
In this place
Why is it I feel like I'm a disgrace
Do I deserve to be on this side of the border
Border!
Am I an optimist
To think free markets could ever really fix this
Am I a socialist
If I lay the blame at the feet of big business
But I can't help you
Don't wanna talk about it
'Cause I don't wanna be rude, but
The things that have been troubling you
They trouble me too
But there's nothing I can do
And it gets me down
It always gets me down
Oh, it
When it comes around
It always seems to get me down

What have you done to me?
16 ads by the minute
I'm all out of energy
Of energy
What have you done to me?
All these eyes in the shower
Invading my privacy
My privacy
You don't wanna look too long
You don't wanna see the other way
Information selling strong
Might as well watch me day by day
I can disconnect my phone
But you'll find a way to see
The girls I like
The food I eat
Everything you want is in a sheet
What have you done to me?
Can't sleep without your voice
But I wake up in agony
In agony
What have you done to me?
Leave my thoughts in the kitchen
And keep them away from me
Away from me
When did it become so grey?
These days I only talk to you
And if you disappeared today
Would the world really know what to do?
I can't believe the hours I spent
And all the things I won't achieve
Maybe I should throw you away
Pack my things and leave
What have you?
What have you?
What have you done?
What have you done?
What have you done to me?
What have you done to me?
What have you done?
What have you done?
What have you done to me?
What have you done?
What have you done? (What have you done?)
What have you done? (What have you done to me?)
What have you done? (Oh god, oh god, what have you done?)
What have you done?
What have you done? (You done?)
What have you done? (You done?)
What have you done? (You done?)
What have you done to me?

Too Small For This World
05:57
|
|||
I’m too small for this world
I can feel it
Try to make sense of it all
Find some meaning
But it just sneaks away
Right out the back door
And I run after it
Trying to catch up
Why
Do we go so far
To find our place?
Oh, oh, why
Do I try so hard
To run away?
To run away?
Tell me now
Do you feel it too?
Do you feel it too?
I’m too small for this world
I can feel it
I’m too big for my head
Tend to get lost inside
Into the bottom of sense
Dreamin’ of everything
Into the bottom of sense
You can deceive me, but
Why
Do we go so far
To find our place?
To find our place?
Tell me now
Why
Do I try so hard
To run away?
To run away?
I’m too small for this world
I believe it
I’m too small for this world
I can see it clear
Tracing lines in the sand
Like an insect
Reach with trembling hands
Need some energy
Just enough to observe
From a distance
I’ll be watching from far, from far
From far away
But in this heart of mine
Is a small divine
Tries to give me signs
But I can’t figure it out, no
No, no, no, no, no
Oh, I’m too small for this world
I’m too small for this world
I’m too small for this world
I’m too small for this world
I’m too small for this world
This world
This world
Oh, I’m too small for this world
No, oh, oh, oh
Oh, I’m too small for this world
Into atoms, into dust, into dying stuff
Into atoms, into dust, into dying stuff
Into atoms, into dust, into dying stuff
Into atoms, into dust, into dying stuff
Into atoms, into dust, into dying stuff
Into atoms, into dust, into dying stuff
Into atoms, into dust, into dying stuff
Into atoms, into dust, into dying stuff
