well they’re shutting down Deansgate again and all you’re bothered about is how it ruined your commute
ain’t it such a shame that they could never acknowledge the proof
their lies disguised the truth from your face
foresaw the world going round and round in flames
they say you change or you die well ain’t that just natural evolution
how could you expect to survive in a world so damaged by pollution
you will wait until it’s too late; your home ain’t on the frontline today
while the rest of the world falls foul to typical western delusion
their lies disguised the truth from your face
foresaw the world going round and round in flames
it’ll take a disaster, just to realise the danger of it all
revolution reaction, when the masses come out in full force
eleven years 'til the curtain falls on this planet we made our home
ain’t it just a joke how the people in power wouldn’t listen to science at all?
unsupervised idiot tweeting every day, your green ideas just a socialist parade
while the tabloid papers just continue their endless unforgiving tirade
surprise, you might just have left it a bit too late
the waterline rose up while you just looked the other way
it’ll take a disaster, just to realise the danger of it all
revolution reaction, when the masses come out in full force
does it destabilise? when the kids walk out of school and take to the streets
it simply undermines the balance that you worked so hard to keep
does it destabilise? when the kids walk out of school and take to the streets
it simply undermines the balance that you worked so hard to keep
does it destabilise? when the kids walk out of school and take to the streets
it simply undermines the balance that you worked so hard to keep
does it destabilise? when the kids walk out of school and take to the streets
it simply undermines the balance that you worked so hard to keep
does it destabilise? when the kids walk out of school and take to the streets
it simply undermines the power balance you worked so hard to keep
does it destabilise? when the kids walk out of school and take to the streets
it simply shines a light - another tory with no answers left to speak

unacquainted strangers

are we just two lonely scavengers searching for something we don’t have?
it’s just a feeble imitation of that which we lost long ago
like two unacquainted strangers you didn’t really know me at all
I guess I could have played it cool
act like a fool and fall into your arms
I could have acted misconstrued
but we both know that that place weren’t meant for you
and aren’t we just two individual accidents waiting to happen?
I caught myself in the reflection and I couldn’t really care much for it
just looking for intrepid adventures with another, combined
I guess I could have played it cool
act like a fool and fall into your arms
I could have acted misconstrued
but we both know that that place weren’t meant for you
