Prong

I CAN NOW CRY
YOUR WORLD'S NOT MINE
YOUR WORLD'S NOT MINE

I SEE WHAT I TOUCH
BURN IN MY OWN DREAMS
NO FEELING FOR YOUR LIFE
YOUR WORLD CAN'T BE SEEN


2. Watching

[Kirkland]

EDUCATED MEN
DISCUSSING
DEMONSTRATING
WARGAMES
SHIPS AND MISSILES
WARGAME STRATEGIES
SIT BACK RELAX

NEWS MAN REPORTING
VIOLENCE AND BRUTALITY

REPORTER REPORTING
THE GRAND FINALE

I DON'T KNOW WHY IT IS
MUST BE A DISEASE
JUST GO TO WORK
PUT YOUR MIND AT EASE
COME HOME AND WATCH T.V.
JUST WATCH

WE'RE JUST WATCHING
WE'RE JUST WATCHING
WE'RE JUST WATCHING

AIN'T IT A SHAME

WISH I COULD SAY

I'M NOT TO BLAME
I'M NOT TO BLAME
I'M NOT TO BLAME
I'M NOT TO BLAME
NOT TO BLAME
NOT TO BLAME


3. Cling To Life

[Kirkland, Victor]

A CRUMBLING TOWER AT THE SITE OF AN EARTHQUAKE
NEW CORPORATE QUARTERS NOW NOT SO HIGH
SOME DISCONNECTION CAUSES AERIAL CONFUSION
THE HUNDRETH PLANE TO FALL OUT OF THE SKY

A HOUSE OF LABOR LEAKS A VENOMOUS EMITION
LEAVES POOR PEASANTS, SUFFERING AMASS
COUNTRIES SCOURGED BY UNNECESSARY FAMINE
THE WALKING SKELETONS STILL CLING TO LIFE

BLAME IT ON THE GODS

THE PEOPLE'S HERO KILLED BY CRIME OF PASSION
IT'S THEN REPORTED THAT HE LIVED A LIE
ANOTHER MENTOR ENTANGLED IN CORRUPTION
HIS SORDID DEALING LEFT MANY TO DIE.


4. Denial

[Victor]

STAYING WITH THIS LIFE TO LEAD
ATTEMPTING NO TRUE TEST
STICKING WITH SOME SICK IDEAL
WHILE OTHERS SELL OUT FAST

NEED A BIT OF FLAGELLATION
NEED TO SCOUR THE DEPTHS
CAN'T EXERCISE AUTHORITY

CLAMPED DOWN CONTROLLED WILL
DENIAL, NO DISCIPLINE
REFRAINMENT ABSTINENCE
QUESTION CONVENIENCE

INGESTING SOME CORRUPT CONCEPT
CONSUMING ALL ITS PRODUCE
PULLING THOUGHTS AND CONSCIENCE
CONFIRMING ALL UNNOTICED
THE FULFILLMENT TRULY LIES
IN WHAT MUST BE SUPPRESSED
SUBJUGATING PASSION
LEAVES POWER UNPROFESSED


5. Dreams Like That

[Kirkland]

PARTICIPANT
IN A SICKENING SCENE
CAN'T TRUST THE COMFORT
OF YOUR BED
THE PILLOW FOR YOUR HEAD

WE'VE ALL HAD BAD DREAMS
WE'VE ALL HAD BAD DREAMS
BUT NO ONE SHOULD HAVE
DREAMS LIKE THAT
NO MORE DREAMS LIKE THAT
NO MORE DREAMS

IT'S HARD TO BE A REALIST
LIFE'S SUCH A MESS
CONSIDER THE LENGTH OF THAT FALL
THE NEXT TIME YOU WANT TO FALL

NO MORE DREAMS LIKE THAT
NO MORE DREAMS LIKE THAT
NO MORE DREAMS LIKE THAT
NO MORE DREAMS LIKE THAT


6. In My Veins

[Kirkland]

GALLON OF GASOLINE
IN MY VEINS
GALLON OF GASOLINE
THE HANDS WENT NUMB
BLEEDING, COUGHING
IN A ROOM THREE FEE DEEP
HOT AS A IRON
BURNING HOLES IN MY FEET

HOLES IN MY KNEES

IT'S IN YOUR BLOOD
IT'S IN YOUR SKIN
IT'S IN YOUR HEAD
TEAR IT DOWN AND
START AGAIN

IT'S ONLY GOOD
WHEN THE NEEDLES
IN THE VEIN

TEAR IT DOWN
TEAR IT DOWN
TEAR IT DOWN
START AGAIN


7. Climate Control

[Victor]

A PLAN FOR POWER
MOVES TO OPPRESS
EXCLUDES POVERTY
SPORTS SUCCESS
OBLITERATES OBSTINANCE

IGNORE ANY UGLINESS
MAINTAIN WAR MIND READINESS
PROPAGATE LOYALTY
INFUSE MODIFICATION

IF NOT REMOVED, FEED THEIR LEVEL OF FEAR
ALLOW THEM TO QUESTION, ANSWER: HOLD TO SECRECY

NEW CHANGE IN CLIMATE
EMBROILS THIS YEAR
HEAT LIKE THE OVENS
CAN NATURE BE BROKEN?


8. Persecution

[Victor]
