Space Out! 03:48
Sometime after midnight, something didn't feel right / I'm getting thrown, and I want to throw up / the nausea inside is becoming too much I know / I want to come, I don't want to be brought here / there is not much hope, so I'm catatonic with fear / midnight, something didn't feel right / sometimes you space out / you can't understand what anybody is talking about / that's when you space out / sometime after midnight, something didn't feel right / I can never know, I can only be seeing / what is going on, whether I am deceived I don't / even know where to commence starting knowing / why the sky brimmed with celestial glowing, me / midnight, something didn't feel right / sometimes you space out / you can't understand what anybody is talking about / that's when you space out / sometimes it lasts for hours on end / sometimes just years my friend / and you don't know when to pretend / that you can follow along / leave me alone, leave me the fuck alone

The Moment 04:50
This is the moment I've been waiting for / I've got nothing to do, I don't know where to go / this is the moment I've been waiting for / I'm lighting candles and I'm stuffing the doors / I don't remember what it felt like before / but I'm feeling it now, and all I want is more / did you get the news that I / was lost at sea for a while now I'm back in time / I've got the metal and pedal to the floor / I've stole the puck and I'm ready to score / I've got the product and I'm going to go door to door / you call me crazy while you sit there depressed / you're settling in and also for second best / I've got an alien popping out of my chest / well I already told you I could be like the rest / you're going down and you think I'm to blame / I'm playing hard but I admit it's a game / you won't get in or out of anyone's way / you can't join 'em and hope that you'll beat 'em someday / did you get the news that I / was lost in space for a while / now I'm back in time / I'm souping up and I am ready to ride / I'm going to give my itchy trigger a try / I'm going to do but there's a chance that I'll die / This is the moment I've been waiting for, uh-huh / and this could be our finest hour if we don't screw ourselves / and we can get out of this prison in time for show and tell / and we can find the strength to scale the fence if we have enough of this hell / brothers and sisters I have none / but this man's father is my father's son / I said brothers and sisters I have none / but this man's father is my father's son / I'm not trying to be mean, not trying to be cute / the time to do that would have been back in your youth / I'm not trying to be mean, I'm trying to tell the truth / the time to do that would have been back in your youth / did you get the news that I / was lost at sea for a while now I'm back in time / I've got the star and I be running fast / this is the moment I've been praying to last / I've got the bomb and I'm awaiting the blast.

Have you ever been now, have you ever been now / whoa, the place where I stand / have you ever been now, have you ever been now / whoa, the place where I am / where everything changed, everything changed / and you'll never look at me the same way again / then everything changed, now everything's changed / look at me the same way again / people never can change, people never can change / whoa, was what you thought before / people who were born tame, they will always stay lame / whoa, was all that was in store / then everything changed... / we'll just put off solving this until later / right now you're emotional I'd wager / you can look forward to when you move out / you'll probably forget what you got so pissed off about / we never knew you'd forsake your sweet home on the range / now you are estranged / 'cuz now you're estranged, now you're estranged / and they'll never think of you the same way again / now you're estranged, yeah they'll think you're strange / be part of the family again.

This gravy train has left the station and we cannot catch it now / I just wanted to let you know / want to let you know / that was before the branding iron killed the sacred cow / I just wanted to let you know / want to let you know, yeah / This is where / you go to be giving up / we're already there / we've already given up / this make believe you dwell in has you swimming in your sleep / I just wanted to let you know / want to let you know / the produce has been sitting out it's rotting from the heat / I just wanted to let you know / want to let you know, yeah / this is where / you go to be giving up / we're already there / we've already given up / it's too late, we've already / sealed your fate / we sealed it from the moment we created you / The schism grows more deep / flesh weakens in the family / you can't be left alone / don't throw away the phone, you just dial it / there's no-one you can trust / can't live without their trust / it's important that you succeed / you're choking on their lead / and it's time to walk / 'cuz hands are in the air (our hands are in the air) / no-one really cares (no no-one really cares anymore / where do you go to give up? / we surrendered when we stopped giving a fuck / there's no-one you can trust / can't live without their trust / so you better go build that bridge / you're standing on a ledge / and looking down / falling down / 'cuz hands are in the air (our hands are in the air) / no-one really cares (no no-one really cares anymore / where do you go to give up? / we surrendered when we stopped giving a fuck / tired of man (we're tired of humankind) / of doing what we can (of doing what we can to get by) / where do you go to give in? / we surrendered when we learned we'd never win / with another black hole and the world is small / going to have to build a Dyson Sphere / when the centre of it all is the eye of the storm / the storm can power us and steer / all of us to a place, a very brave place / where we stop forcing fate one day / and the nothingness and the battle for bliss / no longer saps our energy away / yeah yeah yeah yeah y-
5.
1980's nuclear nightmare / come and take me away from here / all the people paralyzed with fear / each and every square inch of skin seared / they declared nuclear war and we're / going to have to even the score and we / don't really know what will come next, so please / duck your head under your desk, and you / 1980's nuclear nightmare / turned out they were right with the red scare / it rained upon us right out of thin air / some of us were not even aware / that they launched a nuclear attack, and we've / got the right to be striking back, and we've / never ever done this before, but we're / going to have to even the score, and you / air raid sirens blasting every ear / this will be the last thing that you'll hear... / they've becomed nuclear armed, and that's / making us all somewhat alarmed, and we / think that we can wipe them all out, but there's / margin for error, reason for doubt / and supposing we could even succeed, then they / would not even get time to bleed, and they / won't be able to look at the sky / when it's hot as the sun, it's hard on the eyes / whoa, that's what we surmise / we know that they will be surprised / how did we get to this point, and will we survive? / what difference will it even make to whom we're allied / so we've no choice but to launch an air raid, 'cuz we / cannot tolerate a blockade, and it's / far too late to / negotiate / we're standing our ground / we're sticking around.
