A heart that's full up like a landfill A job that slowly kills you Bruises that won't heal I'll take a quiet life A handshake of carbon monoxide No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises please Silent, silence All you've got to do is wake up Rise and shine Morning, morning Everybody loves morning, morning Pray to God in the morning, morning Thank you

Out of the quiet Out of the sunrise I hear the birdsong Give way to sirens I hear the voices Give way to silence It looks like fire But it's just sunshine Waters are rising Forests are burning Hearts always hurt more While they are learning Saying goodbye to The ones they have come from Saying goodbye to The ones they have run from Out of the sirens Might come the birdsong Out of the silence Might come the love song After the love song Might come the sunrise After the sunrise Might come the silence...

My eyes are bi-focal My hands are sub-jointed I live in the future In my pre-war apartment And I count all my blessings I have friends in high places And I'm upgraded daily All my wires without traces Hooked into machine Hooked into machine Hooked into machine I'm hooked into Hooked into Hooked into machine Hooked into machine Hooked into machine I'm hooked into Hooked into machine I collect my moments Into a correspondence With a mightier power Who just lacks my perspectives And who lacks my organics And who covets my defects And I'm downloaded daily I am part of a composite Hooked into machine Hooked into machine Hooked into machine I'm hooked into Hooked into Hooked into machine Hooked into machine Hooked into machine I'm hooked into Hooked into machine Everything's provided Consummate consumer Part of worldly taking Apart from worldly troubles Living in your pre-war apartment Soon to be your post-war apartment And you live in the future And the future It's here It's bright It's now
