Welcome to the end Of the International Believer's Trust Today on the agenda We have several bullet points to discuss And everyone here's registered to Get through the apocalypse alive So if we just get it over with We'll all be outta here by five Early in the morning Before the last sunrise And up until the current Crisis of faith turned the zeitgeist on its side We've managed to keep the price Of salvation locked at an all-time high We've covered a lot of ground since those Early days of revolution Now everyone sitting around the table Let me thank you for your generous contribution Early in the morning Before a blood-red sun Don't the moon behind the clouds Look like the guts of a thumbed-out mosquito? Don't the crickets chirping loud Sound like the white noise of our restless libido? The Anti-Christ is growing old Waiting for us to give him the go-ahead Could somebody please wipe up his drool and just Administer the man his meds Early in the morning Before the sunrise red? Early in the morning Early in the morning Early in the morning Early in the morning Early in the morning

Point B 03:40
And now I’m waking up And now I’m getting dressed And now I’m eating food And now taking meds And now I’m looking for car keys And I’m still looking for those keys And now I’m driving on a highway And now I’m listening to a song And now I’m waving to a person And now I am driving home And now I’m pulling up And now I’m eating food And now I’m getting changed And now I’m in the mood And now I’m looking for a cell phone And I’m still looking for that key And now I’m sleeping on a sofa And now I’m slipping into dreams And now I’m dreaming of a highway And now I’m drifting in between And now I’m visiting all the places in my life And now I’m shaking hands with all the people I have known And now I’m telling them that I am going And now I'm going And now I’m gone And now I’m waking up And now I’m dreaming of a highway And now I’m waking up And now I’m dreaming of a highway And now I’m waking up And now I’m driving on a highway And now I’m waking up And now I’m dreaming of a highway And now I'm...

My hometown died Still I'm up with the sun Early in the morning is when I get my thinking done I've got a wood stove I've got a well I've got a thirteen year old soup can on the shelf And I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain This cracked up pavement Use to be route nine These crumbling bricks use to house a good friend of mine We had a market We had a square We had a town hall with a lot of nice people working there And I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain My hometown died Still I'm up with the sun Early in the morning is when I get my thinking done Burned all the oil Bugs ate the corn Bled on the soil and put mercury in the storm And I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain I can't complain

It's been a while Tap that dial Nod and smile It'll be ok The lights seem odd Might be God Smile and nod And slowly back away I'm going home now Plug myself in So I won't be angry in the morning Electronic tether Makes me feel better Make me feel better Come and go A dashboard glow A TV show Came and went Nod to the right Don't smile too tight Little red light Down to one percent I'm going home now Plug myself in So I won't be angry in the morning Electronic tether Make me feel better Makes me feel better I'm going home now Plug myself in So I won't be angry in the morning Electronic tether Make me feel better Makes me feel better Makes me feel better I'm going home now I'm going home now Makes me feel better Make me feel better

Air Guitar 03:41
I confess I've stood At the mirror before Quite impressed Looking good Playing air guitar A fantasy Easy to understand Where I don't need no bank loan Don't need no business plan I confess I've stood At the mirror before Quite impressed Looking good Mr. Video Star I believe I can hit a hundred thousand views Don't need no necktie Don't need no shine on my shoes I quit my day job I snubbed my friends I hit rock bottom I start again I confess I've stood At the mirror before Quite impressed Looking good In love with My diamond jaw A sight to see An icon I presume True inspiration To all eyes in the room I quit my day job I snubbed my friends I hit rock bottom I start again I quit my day job I snubbed my friends I hit rock bottom I start again I quit my day job I snubbed my friends I hit rock bottom I start again I start again I quit my day job I snubbed my friends I hit rock bottom I start again I start again

My Square 02:22
I’ve been trying to find A hole for my square Got a job in a mine Couldn’t fit it in there ...were too many sides And not enough air Now I breathe through a hose And I’m losing my hair I’ve been trying to find A hole for my square Didn’t know you were blind Did you know I was there? ...were too many eyes And not enough chairs Now I breathe through a hose And I’m losing my hair I’ve been trying to find A hole for my square I drink Italian wine I drink Australian beer With too much ice And not enough air And I breath through a hose And I’m losing my hair

This feeling rides a minor key Unlock me A hole above, wind at the lips And hearts trip The tongue, the teeth made many shapes But vibrations strange were all I heard The passage hums and the walls they shake I'm done with, done with words Sometimes I hear about things unsaid They just come into my head The sound of strings down corridor Pulls a light through the crack in the floor “Beyond the final door is all you know” Is a thought I got from a little bird So I’ll sing a tune and make it up as I go I'm done with, done with words This feeling rides a minor key Unlock me A hole above, wind at the lips And hearts trip Sometimes I hear about things unsaid They just come into my head The sound of strings down corridor Pulls a light through the crack in the floor This feeling rides a minor key Unlock me A hole above, wind at the lips And hearts trip Sometimes I hear about things unsaid They just come into my head The sound of strings down corridor Pulls a light through the crack in the floor

You can pray And you can meditate You've got your whole entire life to wait For what you're waiting for Call it light Call it love, call it hate I bet you'll find it through the door Whatever you're waiting for Still it hurts And you still have to clean the dirt Still it might get better Still it might get worse Down here on earth Where we're still working out the curse And it might get better And it might get worse You can try To build an endless bridge Make an endless pilgrimage Hearts are never full Call your life A holy syllable A mystic interval Hearts are never full Still it hurts And you still have to clean the dirt Still it might get better Still it might get worse Down here on earth Where we're still working out the curse And it might get better And it might get worse There's a knocking on your wall Coming through Either a stranger or a friend Same as you Still it hurts And you still have to clean the dirt Still it might get better And it might get worse Down here on earth Where we're still working out the curse And it might get better And it might get worse There's a knocking on your wall Coming through Either a stranger or a friend Same as you
