A perfect plan from the start of it or so it seems Power brings pleasure on the backs of all these lavish things. Oh, beware of what you're wishing for. Counting all your riches with a crooked smile and an evil stare Reckless extravagance to fill the void but the soul is bare Oh, you know you can't take it when you leave It's not enough Whoa it's not enough Could this be true It's not enough for you If something missing and you own all that's beneath the sun The problem lies with what you want to do, but haven't done Oh, the feeling of regret Whoa you know you can't take it back It's not enough Whoa it's not enough And now you know It's not enough for you Yeah, it's not enough Whoa it's not enough It's not enough Not enough for you Enough for you Enough for you Oh now waiting for the time to be just right Ain't doing you any favors When the iron's hot you've got to strike Oh yeah tonight's the night Oh yeah tonights the night Oh yeah tonights the night I said waiting for the time to be just right Ain't doing you any favors When the iron's hot you've got to strike Oh yeah tonight's the night Yeah it's not enough Whoa it's not enough It's not enough Not enough for you It's not not enough Whoa it's not enough And now you know It's not enough for you

The Buy In 05:15
Pleasantly mystified By this grand illumination All the eyes and ears know the score But taken in by temptation Now those certainties Reveal themselves as untrue Teeth sunk into excuses Bit off more than they could chew So we wake up in the afternoon with a Smile on our face Cause it's not that serious Oh Yeah it's not that serious That's what they tell us Demands to change within an instant Easier said than done Need something a little stronger To buy into this one When conviction starts to fade No questions should be asked Just sign you life away on the dotted line And get yourself back on track So you wake up in the afternoon with a Smile on your face Cause it's not that serious Doctor Doctor well I need a fix My facts and fiction are in a twist And I'm falling for the same shit every time He said take this pill it might make you weaker But it damn sure gonna make you a believer that Everything is going to be just fine Fucked up, Insecure, Neurotic, and Emotional So I wake up in the afternoon with a Smile on my Face Cause it's not that serious Oh Yeah it's not that serious So we wake up in the afternoon with a Smile on our face Oh cause we know Ignorance is bliss We're just waiting for our next taste So it's not that serious Oh yeah It's not that serious Yeah it's not that serious That'a what they tell us

Take another deadline Straight to the brain Remain distant to those Closest to you And all of those who thought That they had missed her Never knew She was never there And she's standing on the edge Of a tower made of glass Screaming my kingdom at last Not knowing the names Of all of those they've crushed The junkies of business Shoot another pitch Into their veins Remain distant to those Closest to you And all of those that thought That they had kissed him Now they know He was never there And he's standing on the edge Of a tower made of glass Screaming my kingdom at last Not knowing the names Of all the souls they've crushed The junkies of business

Walk It Off 04:34
The blood begins to flow The further distance we go From the troubles that weigh us down And no more white faces or Empty spaces With each step we cover more ground And we don't see any need for pretending No one here has a crystal ball What gets you through your day is someone else's nightmare We've got to walk to the beat of our own drum So come along with us And take a mindful walk to release your anxieties Oh it's time you took a stand Cause it's a long road Cain't always do it alone and it's ok if you need a hand And we don't see any need for pretending No one has a mirror, mirror on the wall What gets you through your day is someone else's nightmare We've got to walk to the beat of our own drum So come along with us And take a mindful walk to release your anxieties It's ok if you need a hand

Open Minded 03:39
Why ask why you said When it fells so good to ask why not instead Get up, get out, get up, get down Oh I hope that you can keep an open mind To help create an unforgettable time Oh we have no idea where we are going But when the music starts to play We're gonna shake it Oh yeah Shake it for me Why say no you said When saying yes is the only way to clear your head Get up, get out, get up, get down Oh I hope that you can keep an open mind To help create an unforgettable time Oh we have no idea who we're gonna meet When the music starts to play We're gonna shake it We're gonna shake it Oh Shake it Oh yeah Shake it for me Get up, get out, get up, get fucking down Oh I hope you know we're not hurting anyone Just trying to have ourselves a little bit of fun So for the moment we'll restrain our self control But when the music starts to play We'll fucking shake it Oh Yeah Shake it for me Oh you know that you can sleep when you When you're dead
