And you see, i kind of shivered to conformity
Did you see the way i cowered to authority
You see, my life, it's a series of compromises anyway
It's a sham, and i'm conditioned to accept it all, you see

(more) than i had before
(more) than i've presently got
(more) than i'll ever use up
(more) than i really need
(more) than i had before
(more) than i could possibly spend
(more) than i'll ever use up
(more) than i really need
It's more than i can spare
My religion is caged

Safe from progress, purgatory i know
How does this affect me
Emotionally affect me

Will they let me go
Will they let me go
Will they let me go
Equilibrium imbalanced again

I feel no pain
I feel no...
I feel no pain
The jabberwocky haunts me, in my memory it's caged

I feel no pain (i feel no pain)
I feel no... (i feel no...)
I feel no pain (i feel no...)
But if you punched me in the stomach then i'd feel it again

Life is a compromise anyway
Life is a compromise anyway
Life, it's a compromise anyway
Life, it's a compromise anyway
And it's a sham, and i'll accept it all

And you see, i kind of shivered to conformity
Did you see the way i cowered to authority
You see, and my life, it's a series of compromises anyway
It's a sham, and i'm conditioned to accept it all, you see

If you fear transition to your other life
Don't need money to be there
Leave behind your money just to prove your worth
Won't be here so i don't care
If you strap your conscience to your vision thing
Won't be here so i don't care
Prove your worth to people that you called your friends
Won't be here so i don't care

I wouldn't care if i was washed up tomorrow you see
Reading novels is banned by the marquis de sade
All relationships are emptying and temporary

Life is wearing me thin
I feel so drained, my legacy
A sea of faces just like me and
Life is wearing me thin
I feel so drained, my legacy
A sea of faces just like me

I've been drained, emotion is a bitter fate
Won't be here so i don't care
I concede relationships have left me weak
Won't be here so i don't care
Look for something worthy to replace my guilt
Won't be here so i don't care
Prove my worth to people who i called my friends
Won't be here so i don't care

I wouldn't care if i was washed up tomorrow you see
Reading novels is banned by the marquis de sade
All relationships are emptying and temporary

Nobody cares when you're gone

My book of mormon
Wrapped in turin
And it seems inferior and jittery
You preach elastic
To your jagged flock
In an eerie passion for self-flattery

I'm emotionally raped by jesus
I'm emotionally raped by jesus now
But i'm still here
Yes, somehow i'm still here

What now of my faith
Just a desperate exercise to limit pain
I am weak
I'm emotional and sensitive and frail
In need of some love
Pull the cancer from the vatican's own state
Uninformed
You will harbour those who nurtured europe's war
Keep turning my cheek
In a fragile state of violence left me weak
No guilt
Hold your people in disdain and steal their grace

I need replacement
To feel redefined
And it's just this matter of identity
You preach elastic
To your jagged flock
It's an eerie passion for self-flattery

Emotionally i'm wrapped in shame
Emotionally i feel i'm raped
Oh, emotionally in chains

What now of my faith
It's a desperate exercise to limit pain
No guilt
Hold your people in disdain and steal their grace
Keep turning my cheek
I'm emotional and sensitive and weak
Uninformed
You have harboured those who nurtured europe's war

My migraine makes me ill
My electricity is low
My laceration soothes itself
My chemicals flow
And i'm boosting what i take
Just like the germans, getting off
On herbal vacuum - pumps of blow
It shows all i know

And i drop and i drop
And my body levels drop
And my nerves clogging up
Sucking all the substance up

With this method that i have found
I'm redressing all i know
I can change the amount of god
That wraps around me
From a satellite they fire
Serotonin from eight miles
Above deeside in binary
It orbits my street

(redux, redux, redux, redux
Redux, redux, redux, redux
Redux, redux, redux, redux)
My chemist is the only friend that i've got

It never occurs to me
To ask anybody what i'm doing here
(it never) it never occurs to me
To ask anybody what i'm doing here, doing here
(four, five, six seven, eight nine ten, eleven twelve)

I know you're purely marxist
Your philosophy's so cool
With your tranquillisers, valium and gin
You talk of euthanasia
And your breakdown was so cool
Did stanley kubrick fake it with the moon?

This cult of positivity, once again, yeah
But i didn't think about the fall out
Fall out

On top of the hour (compulsive my behaviour)
I see my life through sky news (keeping things in order)
Keep on watching things unfolding on my wide-screen set
Can't contain myself
I'm going pay-per-view

Think i'll explode (in the corner of my room)
If i do too much gak (sits my one big eyeball)
It's with the advent of this pay-per-view
Can't control myself

I scratch my knee
I have to scratch the other
Documentaries are the best

Thru' my t.v., through my t.v.
All my problems come
Thru' my t.v., through my t.v.
All my problems come

I study quite hard (in the corner of my room)
When i should be in bed (sits my one big eyeball)
I'm in the open university
Constant imprint of the test card on my eyes
I think i should rest (compulsive my behaviour)
Sleep on one side and the other (keeping things in order)
Always searching for the abilene
Can't control myself
