Don't Think Too Much Take Action! You'll Cease To Be At Any Time Now..

Don't Think Too Much Take Action! You'll Cease To Be At Any Time Now..

On and on and on and on?
Don?t think too much, take action
On and on and on and on?
You?ll cease to be at any time now

Strange, as strange as it may seem
The Present is the only thing
That is, was and has been.
Play, work, suffer, enjoy, dread,
Enjoy every breath
We?ll only rest in Death.

Keep goin? on
Fighting up and down the darkest alleyways of life
It can?t be that be that hard for you
Then when your time is up
Give yourself away with no regrets
There?ll be nothing left of you

On and on and on and on?
Don?t think too much, take action
On and on and on and on?
You?ll cease to be at any time now

Strange, as strange as it may seem
You?ll burn just once, you?ll die just once
One chance is all you?ve got
Don?t walk, don?t run, don?t waste your time,
Try keeping up a constant step in all the things you do

Keep goin? on
Fighting up and down the darkest alleyways of life
It can?t be that be that hard for you
Then when your time is up
Give yourself away with no regrets
There?ll be nothing left of you

On and on and on?

Can you believe we're just like shadows?

Can you believe we're just like shadows?

Can you believe we?re just like shadows?
We come and we leave, we?re just like shadows?
It?s hard to believe we?re just like shadows,
Can you believe we?re just like shadows??

Where do we come from, where do we go?
Everyone?s asking, but no one knows?
All answers remain pending, the questions never-ending
And all the things around us are slaves of endless changes
To hell with superstition, this goes beyond religion
I?m trying hard to figure out
The shape of truth.

Can you believe we?re just like shadows?
We come and we leave, we?re just like shadows?
It?s hard to believe we?re just like shadows,
Can you believe we?re just like shadows??

And I need some consolation?

No matter how hard you may try,
You?ll get no answer before you die.
All answers remain pending, the questions never-ending
And all the things around us are slaves of endless changes
We live our lives and gamble, we?ve no instructions manual
To show us what we?re all about,
We?re blind to the truth

Can you believe we?re just like shadows?
We come and we leave, we?re just like shadows?
It?s hard to believe we?re just like shadows,
Can you believe we?re just like shadows??

And I need some consolation?

No Man Is An Island, So That's Why I'll Have To Become One.

No Man Is An Island, So That's Why I'll Have To Become One.

You won?t see me wasting time, you won?t see me wasting time
Keeping score of all these thoughts is driving me insane.
You won?t see me wasting time, you won?t see me wasting time
My happiness is hindered by this everlasting never-ending pain.

When I look around to try to find a solution
Second thoughts keep crawling in
I can?t control what?s going in

When I look around to try to find a solution
Second thoughts keep crawling in
I can?t control what?s going in

It?s burning me up
It?s bringing me down
No man is an island
So that?s why I?ll have to become one
Keeping score of all these thoughts
Is driving me insane
My happiness is hindered by this everlasting never-ending pain

It?s burning me up
It?s bringing me down
No man is an island
So that?s why I?ll have to become one
Keeping score of all these thoughts is driving me insane
Second thoughts keep crawling in
I can?t control what?s going in

Don't Ask. It's Life.

Don't Ask. It's Life.

Thinking ?all or nothing? gets you nothing at all,
What?s the use of standing up if soon enough you?ll fall?
Don?t ask. It?s life.
As I see my days coming
They?re so different from yours
Still we?re executing actions,
Routines, compulsory chores.
I wish to reach the bottom line
of all purpose in this life
to find a point of reference,
a cure to all this strife.

What?s the use of wasting time if time is running out?
What?s the use of using time if time just burns you out?
Why try now if one can wait, why hurry? Take it slow.
Why should one procrastinate? Go faster than the flow.
Don?t ask. Live life.
As I see my days coming
They?re so different from yours
Still we are the willing victims
Of compulsory choice
I wish to reach the bottom line
The truth about our flaws
But the world has got its grip on us
With its variable laws

Thinking ?all or nothing? gets you nothing at all,
What?s the use of standing up if soon enough you?ll fall?
Don?t ask. It?s life.
As I see my days coming
They?re so different from yours
Still we?re all the willing victims
Of compulsory choice
I?m bound to reach the bottom line
I?ve got to play my part
We?ll all reach the very end
In spite of where we start.

I Think I'll Just Lie Down Here And Play Dead Until The Morning Comes...

I Think I'll Just Lie Down Here And Play Dead Until The Morning Comes...

I was wrong to say that I was right
And I was right to say that I was wrong
But I was right whenever I was right
And I was wrong to say that I was wrong

Tell me what?s the difference then,
Between one and the other
I think I?ll just lie down here and play dead
Until the morning comes?

I was right to say that I was right
And I was wrong to say that I was wrong
?Coz you got to find your patience when you cast your hook and line
Yeah, you got to find your patience when you cast your hook and line?

I?m never gonna give it up
Till the day is over
I?m gonna give it up
Till the fight is over
I?m never gonna give it up
Till the war is over
I think I?ll just lie down here and play dead
Until the morning comes?

Woke Up Early Morning, It's Time To Wake Up The World

Woke Up Early Morning, It's Time To Wake Up The World

Woke up early morning at the crack of dawn
And I got out of bed, washed my face and geared up to go
Next thing I was out of the door, oh what a day
So much stuff to do feel free, feel free
Doing what we want, we ought to know we?re free

Next thing I was out of the door, oh what a day
It doesn?t matter if it rains, it can rain for ever
Woke up early morning, it?s time to wake up the world
Wake up the world
So much stuff to do feel free, feel free
Doing what we want, we ought to know we?re free

Woke up early morning at the crack of dawn?
Woke up early morning its time to wake up the world?

Hey Come Out And Play! Today's Not Yesterday!

Hey Come Out And Play! Today's Not Yesterday!

Hey come out and play
Today?s not yesterday
It?s kind of hard but you?ve got to remember
That sometimes things aren?t as you?d like them to be

Everybody needs a cure for something or another
With ailing minds we keep on searching for our answers
So many things, so many people with so much to say
These modern days we all forget
That we?re only flesh and bones

Hey come out and play
Today?s not yesterday
It?s kind of hard but you?ve got to remember
That sometimes things aren?t as you?d like them to be
Well, sometimes things aren?t as you?d like them to be

Everyone needs a cure for something or another
With ailing minds we keep on searching for our answers
Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose,
Sometimes we come to a halt
But all?s not lost ?cause we can just
Open another door

Hey come out and play
Today?s not yesterday
It?s kind of hard but you?ve got to remember
That sometimes things aren?t as you?d like them to be
No, sometimes things aren?t as you?d like them to be

Stand Up For Your Right! Turn The Page To A Fresh Start.

Stand Up For Your Right! Turn The Page To A Fresh Start.

This society?s built on moral beliefs (They say)
Law and order give us little relief (We say)
Politicians take advantage of their position
Ostracizing lives of the common people
Stereotyping those who conform to the norm
Is anarchy the right solution
Or is it a threat to the human nation?

Stand up for your rights, portray the picture of a better future
Stand up for your rights, turn the page to a fresh start

What has happened to our judicial system (We say)
Prison cells are hotel suites without bills to settle (When one leaves)
Prosecutors take advantage of their position
Convicting the non-guilty to cover up their asses
Perking up those who conform to the norm
Is democracy the right solution
Or is it a threat to human nature?

Stand up for your rights, portray the picture of a better future
Stand up for your rights, turn the page to a fresh start

I Never Wanted To Be A Part Of This

I Never Wanted To Be A Part Of This

Go on, consume without delay
There?s no tomorrow
?cause we?re all part of a massive machine
And we don?t really know it

Go, help consume without delay
Let?s make more profit
?cause we?re all part of a massive machine
But they don?t really know it

When many of our dreams and concepts are produced
By others and not by ourselves
We risk the risk of remaining caught up in the middle of this ocean
Where no one really cares
We risk the risk of remaining caught up in this massive disarray
Again and again

Go on, consume without delay
There?s no tomorrow
?cause we?re all part of a massive machine
And we don?t really know it

Go, help consume without delay
Let?s make more profit
?cause we?re all part of a massive machine
But they don?t really know it

I never wanted to be a part of this
I always wanted things not to be this way
I never wanted to be a part of this
I don?t feel part of this big scam

If I Say It's Ok Will You Take Me Away Now?

If I Say It's Ok Will You Take Me Away Now?

I just can?t say this comfortably,
Though these few words might set me free
I just can?t seem to get to you,
So I?ve sorted out my thoughts in one long queue.
This might seem good, it might seem bad,
But it?s the strangest time I?ve ever had
One drastic move to say things loud and clear
But it?s here again? that fear.

But if I say it?s OK, will you take me away now
Far away from this danger?
If I say it?s ok, will you take me away now
Far away from this mental state?

I just can?t say it my own way,
I?m paralysed and my mind?s astray,
What?s more I hate to think of you
As the one who?s supposed to know the truth
This might seem good, it might seem bad,
But it?s the strangest time I?ve ever had
One drastic move to say things loud and clear
But it?s here again? that fear.

But if I say it?s OK, will you take me away now
Far away from this danger?
If I say it?s ok, will you take me away now
Far away from this mental state?
