Crown Land 02:55
Welcome to the Empire We built this city on stolen land Did you forget somehow? Nothing is sacred now It’s blind faith in authority From here on out When the King falls All eyes on the cage door Where will your crown land? I will spend my whole life Paying off the interest, on the interest of a land which you and I have no real claim So give it up for guns, germs and stealing everything From here on out When the King falls It's all eyes on the cage door Where will your crown land? Tonight the breeze carries a cold reason for change It pleads, you shiver and hide inside your cage, confined Your state of mind restrained and bound to serve the crown So break out, escape, reclaim So when the King falls All eyes on the cage door Where will your crown land?

You should feel this When the chemicals start to resonate It’s a kiss from the sky and a sure-fly way to get by Aggressively sheds all my woes I need you to know I'm a tangle of all frustrations I know that I'm giving it all away There's no tomorrow I know, but I need this escape When it started out scarred were we still so innocent Now we're trying to be free From the deep, dark, deeds of the past Bottle them up, take this dose Or a little bit of both I know that I'm giving it all away, no tomorrow I know, I just need this escape from today Feel it grow like a weed then it takes over I know, but I'm seeking escape This is a war don't you know? It's a 'Rat Park' show It's Anslinger's curse It's the yellow press of Hearst Well this war won't be won while they're scarring our young While they're scarring our young While they’re scarring - you should know That we'll seek escape - like there's no tomorrow Now you know why I'm seeking escape?

Well if it isn't the 'Sunday takedown' Sending me to the floor All your insights could invite enough anger That I might even write a letter Sit down, strap in, prepare A ‘looming menace’ is out there I'm never gonna go outside again Close the shutters If there's ever 'alarming new trends' Or the world is suddenly unfair You are always there Standing up to the sinners While we sit and swallow it in Together, let's name the villains I'm never gonna go outside again Close the shutters May nothing ever get in the way Of getting to the source of the blame Or winning the ratings game So if I hear a camera with an agenda knocking on my door Then I'm never gonna go outside Outside? Never again It’s just what I feared I'm staying right here Safe behind the glass

Monsters 03:31
Generations spin again I'm no longer scared of what's under the bed So if you ever need me to, I will scare away a few monsters now, for you The vampire money lenders Would try to bleed us dry every December So young and naive I never saw the constant battle For something to eat Or a little something under the tree Generations spin again I'm no longer scared of what's under the bed So if you ever need me to, I will scare away A few monsters now, for you When one of us fell Under the fog of a chemical spell You marched right into hell Bartered with the devil, traded all your castle walls To save her There was never a chance you could ever stand To watch the fall of one of your own. Ripped apart, you said: 'No use for a home if you don't have a heart' Generations spin again I'm no longer scared of what's under the bed So if you ever need me to, I will scare away a few monsters now for you I know you gave your best years Now the ghost in your joints brings you to tears I wish I had a way to scare those ghosts for good So you can walk around the neighbourhood again A generation understands I'm no longer scared Of what's under the bed So if you ever need me to I will scare away a few monsters now for you Generations spin again I'm no longer scared Of whats under the bed So if I'm ever able to I will scare away those monsters now For you
