Still Not Won Get me into sunshine Get me in today I’ve grown out of my feeling No light upon my way Can someone throw a quarter in this broke machine A little bit affection If you know what I mean Now I can’t say I’m won I can’t say “I do” We are losing touch everyday Lost in a haze, what’s in a name I want to go, don’t want to feel The more I go, the less I feel Just like in space Drifting out of order Out of place Bodies full of dirt, sir Some even wear a tie What’s in your little kingdom Why are you all dressed in white Are we just getting older To find out what’s beneath? I can’t even tell one story From all the books I read Now I can’t say I’m won I can’t say “I do” We are losing touch everyday Lost in a haze, what’s in a name I want to go, don’t want to feel The more I go, the less I feel Just like in space Drifting out of order Out of place So if you know what it’s like Yeah, if you know what it’s like I wanna show you somehing here Just to show you what it's like Could you give this all a name Would you be coming back again This all sounds way too much like space Out of order Out of place

Giving Up On Everyone What you wanna feel like Who you wanna be with Heard you’ve given up on everyone And who you’re gonna blame girl Mlamin’ on the whole world Blamin‘ on a world That you’ve been learning to embrace Before it fell from grace And who you’re gonna turn to When they disappoint you When you’ve reached the point of no return again Now, where’s the sense in that So, who you’re gonna blame girl Blamin’ on the whole world Don’t blame it on the boy you never dared to kiss He ain’t hard to miss When someone stutters “I love you” Don’t blow it Don’t blow it I think I heard him say “Please, don’t walk away”

First Day At School Has someone seen my son He was wearing his best suit As he left the house this morning On his first day back to school He was happy to go seeing his classmates back again Now I just heard a story I’m afraid of to believe This is just a small town That’s got none to do with evil They called me up at work, early this afternoon I don’t know anything ‘bout politics I owe you nothing What’s the point of this If there is a reason, I’m sure you’re gonna tell Well, you say your aim is holy And it’s making the means well Come on then, if this is how you’re aiming Picking on the ones that are too small to defend Can’t you take it like a man Cause I’m not leaving ‘till you’re leaving Now they’re reading out the names that’s become an endless list And the smell is getting worse And still the other halve is missed And the camera’s are rolling so it’s for the world to see We’re gonna dig this hole for two and another one for three And all the doors are left wide-open so the wining’s on the streets And it’s gonna take some time before it’s quiet in the streets I don’t know anything ‘bout politics I owe you nothing What’s the point of this If there is a reason that I’m sure you’re gonna tell Well, you say your aim is holy And it’s making the means well Come on then, if this is how you’re aiming Picking on the ones that are too small to defend Can’t you take it like a man Cause I’m not leaving until you’re leaving
