Patch

You’re looking for someone
Who can patch you up
He’s trying to see
If your symptoms align with
The sins he’s wanting to commit
Just a little trip to the hospital
Just a little slip from the doctor
That’ll suit me up
With pharmaceuticals
Just a little sip to get my head on straight
Just a little bit to chase down
Those memories
They’ll wash away
But don’t let your heart get numb
They will say what they’ll say
It doesn’t matter if
It’s not what they believe
But I’m not too kind
To the ones who make their wages off
The doubts they place inside your mind
Just a little sit in front of the silver screen
Just a little tip from the new philosophies
That’ll set me free
Just a little sip to get my head on straight
Just a little bit will chase down
Those memories
They been haunting me
But don’t let your heart get numb
Don’t let your love grow cold
We all need our money and cars
Our bandages for these scars
We all need to escape from these machines
That take away the air we breathe
So take your time
Do as you please
Just make your way out eventually
So take your time
Do as you please
Just make your way back to me

Normal Now

Man raise his hand for what he believes
But doesn’t know what it really means
Man take a stand yeah go make a scene
Go put on a show in the city streets
Cos you’re not alone
Go show em all that you’re not alone
Cos it’s been such a long time
Coming on
And it all feels so normal
So normal now
They go take it slow and then turn up the heat
You get numb and then tell me what you see
Nothing at all
Oh but they gonna make you think
That you’re closest friends are your enemies
You got me all wrong
So don’t you be surprised
By these times
No need to compromise
Living life right
Living life right now

Let It Roll

They got a whole lot of nerve
All your debtors got a whole lot of dirt
On they shoulders
Gotta a little bit of hurt
In they bones down in their bones
But that ain’t where it belongs
They gotta roll let it roll
Down the track
You gotta roll let it roll
Down your back
You gotta know where you stand
Gotta be that steady hand
Cos I played that game
Fix you up
You know I walked away
Said good luck
I got no one to blame
Nobody but myself
For the things I’ve done
For the things I’ve walked away from
You gotta roll let it roll
Down the track
You gotta roll let it roll
Off your back
You gotta hold your own
Hold it hold it close
And say okay I’ll just play it my way
I’ll just go my own way down the road
You say it’s okay I’ll just play that old game
I’ll just go my own way
But I don’t want to be alone
You gotta roll let em roll
Down the track
You gotta roll let it roll
Off your back
You gotta hold your own
Better hold em hold em close
And don’t let go

Lonely Days Done

I’ve seen them count the cost of
Them lines that people’ve crossed in
Them trailers, parking lots
Like it’s the end of time
And it just passes by
And it’s a shame brother it’s a shame
To go and throw it throw it all away
And it’s a shame darlin it’s a shame
To go and forget to forget your own name
I see you’re living lonely
I see you sinking slowly
Into that unholy pit of quick sand
I see you’re living lonely
I see you sinking slowly
Thinking that you’re the only man
With the helping hand
Oh and it’s a shame brother it’s a shame
To go and dig your dig your own grave
Oh and it’s a shame darlin it’s a shame
To go and give your give your self away
And I know you’ve lost someone you thought that you could trust
And I know you’ve left some things you can’t go pick back up
But the funny thing is that your lonely days are done

Somebody New

Why do you sit and wait like things are gonna come
What do you believe you were made from
A body full of waste and chemicals
You're heading for the grave but you don't seem too fearful
Who will you become?
It's time to separate yourself from your skin
You can't possibly think it's what holds your life in
An empty hollow shell built to work then run down
No more than a machine
The image of man's creation
Who will you become?
I won't live in fear though my day draws near
I won't turn and run when days of darkness come
If I lose the world and if I find my soul
I will still relinquish all of its control
I won't walk by sight
I'll transcend the heights of my generation
All of this culture's weight
All of the screaming facts that others keep pushed back
I will search the truth
And I'll become somebody new
