Right To Life

How about we go and stick your head on a spike
And stick it in a bear den where they get to invite
All their friends around and then they're gonna sit and they'll gloat
'Bout hoe they hunted you for days and then mowed you down
How about we peel your skin and stretch it all out
Stick it out in scrublands where there's tigers about
They'll chill out in the sun and they'll lie down on your ahhhhhh
Feel the extra warmth it brings at night in the grass
The right to life isn't just ours to own
The king of the jungle reduced to handbags and coats
We sacrifice everything that we know
In the blink of an eye we're destroying our home
Now what if we were all locked up in some little cage
Made to eat, sleep and ruck under the animals gaze
Reduced our concrete habitat by 80%
And for entertainment we'd be made to fight to the death
What if we were chained and trained to dance in the streets
Had spears shot in our backs and made to run while we're weak
And if our teeth were thought to be some miracle cure
How long would we allow our numbers to be picked off
The right to life isn't just ours to own
The king of the jungle reduced to handbags and coats
We sacrifice everything that we know
In the blink of an eye we're destroying our home
The right to life isn't just ours to own
The king of the jungle reduced to handbags and coats
We sacrifice everything that we know
In the blink of an eye we're destroying our home
Right To Life
Right To Life
Right To Life
Right To Life
The right to life isn't just ours to own
The king of the jungle reduced to handbags and coats
We sacrifice everything that we know
In the blink of an eye we're destroying our home
The right to life isn't just ours to own
The king of the jungle reduced to handbags and coats
We sacrifice everything that we know
In the blink of an eye we're destroying our home

Clock above my head tick tick tick tick tick
Scrabble for a break tick tick tick tick tick
Mind has run away tick tick tick tick
And I'm struggling for breath tick tick tick tick
The rules that pin me down break break break break break
Boundaries all around break break break break break
Societal compounds break break break break
Is the norm by which I'm bound break break break break
Brave! We step away
From the frames that hold us back from our escape
We can change our prescribed fate
Break the walls, burn down the doors and recreate
Our World again
Sat behind a desk tick tick tick tick
Cos you have to pay your rent tick tick tick tick tick
Wish your life away tick tick tick tick
Only live for the weekend tick tick tick tick
The strings that tie you down break break break break break
Feeling like you'll drown break break break break Break
The jobs you're taught are sound break break break break
The life you want on which they frown break break break break
Brave! We step away
From the frames that hold us back from our escape
We can change our prescribed fate
Break the walls, burn down the doors and recreate
Our World again
They're gonna plug you in and then they'll bleed you dry
You won't feel a thing while they control your life
They're gonna plug you in a slave until you die
The system feeds your dreams but you're the sacrifice
They're gonna plug you in and then they'll bleed you dry
You won't feel a thing while they control your life
They're gonna plug you in a slave until you die
The system feeds your dreams but you're the sacrifice
They're gonna plug you in and then they'll bleed you dry
You won't feel a thing while they control your life
They're gonna plug you in a slave until you die
The system feeds your dreams but you're the sacrifice
Brave! We step away
From the frames that hold us back from our escape
We can change our prescribed fate
Break the walls, burn down the doors and recreate
Our World again

Lollipops

Tumble down houses
Dust blown through the streets
People are weeping
Clutching their things
Sirens are sounding
Out through the town
They hear it as death knolls
They all hunker down
Exhausted and beaten, removed from their homes
Travelling seas and countries unknown
Landing on our shores with unthinkable loss
Face persecution from those that drop bombs
The children are drowning
They're starving, they're cold
And still we refuse them
The rights that they're owed
We've lost our compassion
Numb to the sight
A tactic they've fostered
By media might
Exhausted and beaten, removed from their homes
Travelling seas and countries unknown
Landing on our shores with unthinkable loss
Face persecution from those that drop bombs
Exhausted and beaten, removed from their homes
Travelling seas and countries unknown
Landing on our shores with unthinkable loss
Face persecution from those that drop bombs
Exhausted and beaten, removed from their homes
Travelling seas and countries unknown
Landing on our shores with unthinkable loss
Face persecution from those that drop bombs

One That Got Away

Was there magic in that kiss
When you both first touched lips
And did she make you smile inside
The kind that rises to your eyes
Do you remember how it felt
When we were lying on that couch
The world was lying at our feet
Our hearts connected with every beat
But now you're gone
And you're painting a new song
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
All the promises you made
And all the fantasies we chased
Like stories thought up by a child
We believed in every line
It all got to serious
The lines got blurred and disfigured
I tried to hold on to the edge
And I'm still falling to my death
Cos now you're gone
And you're painting a new song
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
But you're the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
But you're the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
I'll be the one that got away
But you're the one that got away
