You Snooze You Lose

YOU SNOOZE YOU LOSE
you’re looking out looking wow at how far you’ve been
time stacked on your back such a state you’re in
and you snooze on the ever renewing chance again
living life out on the periphery
you bled and you led yourself to believe
that a scar is worth far more than victory
now the girls they run from you
and you’ve lost your friends
nobody knows how you’re breaking free
you snooze you lose
you snooze you lose
you saw the end and couldn’t take in what was happening
(what was happening)
collecting clippings from your winnings from all your defeats
(from your defeats)
and you cry out “look at this masterpiece”
you dwell and you dwell and you’re missing the beat
(missing the beat)
you snooze you lose
you snooze you lose
you saw the end and couldn’t take in what was happening
you run
(run)
you run the fastest when all you want is in front of you
you run run run
you run
(I run from you 4x)
you run
(run from you 4x)
(I run)
you snooze
(you snooze and you lose)
you lose
(you snooze and you lose)
you snooze
(you snooze and you lose)
you lose
(you snooze and you lose and you lose)
you snooze
(you snooze and you lose)
you lose
(you snooze and you lose)
you snooze
(you snooze and you lose)
you lose
(you snooze and you lose and you lose)

HARMONEY
I wanna get away from you
want you dead
in a volcano and
shoot you up to the moon
you’re not a person
you’re a thought
you’re a dream
I give you purpose
I am love
I am free
BUY INTO HARMONEY
the mosquito and the iron bull
both one
in a perfect human
fear makes you incredible
we'll keep you young
I’m not a person
I’m a thought
I’m a dream
you give me purpose
you are love
you are free
BUY INTO HARMONEY
BUY INTO HARMONEY
I BUY INTO HARMONEY
BUY INTO HARMONEY
feel a funny little emotion
don’t lose your cool
don’t let it control
hold you
you better
better make a choice now
you don’t wanna miss out
on HARMONEY
can’t feel no more
get outta bed
touch the screen for a wake-up show
then you hear the voice
say
you’re not a person
you’re a thought
you’re a dream
I give you purpose (GANG: you’re not a person)
I am love (GANG: you’re not a person)
I am free (GANG: you’re not a person)
BUY INTO HARMONEY (GANG: buy into harmoney)
HARMONEY

SONG FOR A PSYCHOPATH
I want to be your god
I want you
to love me no matter what
I do or say
or how much I make you pay
let me just
save you please
‘cause I know that you can’t save me
let me just
give you this chance
I could be your one
if you need
someone to believe in you
I could believe
and you could believe in me
we could touch
something that’s real
to be loved
to be loved
not just someone they told you
you had to be
if you ever
have enough
I could be your one
I could be your one
