There are bodies in the basement of the house I used to own I thought I could escape them with the miles I had flown But the past, it catches up to you just when you least expect And it crumbles down around you and makes you the prime suspect I've a problem in my pocket that keeps calling out my name Nobody else can hear it and they're calling me insane But the noise is deafening and there's a ringing in my ear Everyone else must be deaf if I'm the only one that hears The riddle to my answer, the question that I chose At one time it was a baby, now I see that it has grown Left a body in Helsinki, left a body in Berlin I thought my problems were all over, now they're starting to begin There's a book that I was reading all about how to get away But in the end I had to burn it, it recommended that I pray Feeling like I've got a fever and my neck's starting to sweat Just run my hand through my hair and do my best to forget The choice that's laid out before me is the path I have to choose I wish that I'd gotten a winning one, but I know that I will lose At the end of the day, though, it was only my and her But I don't know what you'd expect from a violator

He spoke out of line Don't give him the time of day He asked again Give it to him anyway Keep him happy for now The only way I know how Says he's doing fine Don't believe anything he'll say Says he wants what is mine Give it to him anyway Like a man with a plow Dragging it through the ground Knowing the chances of rain are slim Don't give into him Now I can see what all of you mean About how it's better to not be seen Look behind the shades Please don't look away Says he's out of time And lost in a sway You know all about The ignorance that he feigns Got business to do But he'd rather play Pay attention to The play for today And then you remember What you wanted to say But he's standing still And made out of clay

Rome 04:39
Home is burning Rome is burning Check on the survivors See if they're alive Home is burning Rome is burning Offer up some penance Nobody survived
5.
Tomorrow 03:45
Throw me down, and hold me tight Protect me from the violent light The yells, the screams The burning trees The fires burn so vividly Memories, pain, sadness, and loss It's all in the past, the thing that you cost The future is now, it's time to go home Meet your maker and say, "Hello!" Tomorrow They'll think we're lovers Our bodies Burned with the others Tomorrow Burning with the embers And nobody Left to remember Clothes burned to bodies trying to get away But all of us knew that we'd have to pay The yells, the screams The burning trees The life that you will never lead Tomorrow The sky filled with soot and ash And all of us gone In one brilliant flash
