Every day it feels like the news gets harder to take Every day it seems like another set of rules to break How much more can we tolerate How much more can these haters hate Every day it feels like the news gets harder to take Don’t look up - the sky is Don’t look up - this guy is Don’t go out side, the shit’s gone and hit the fan Don’t look up - the suns down Don’t look up - go underground Don’t go out side, the shit’s gone and hit the fan Every day it feels like the mask gets harder to wear (yeah right) Every day it seems like the burden gets harder to bear How much more can we tolerate How much more can these haters hate Every day it feels like the news gets harder to take Don’t look up - the sky is Don’t look up - this guy is Don’t go out side, the shit’s gone and hit the fan Don’t look up - the suns down Don’t look up - go underground Don’t go out side, the shit’s gone and hit the fan

Watch The Sky I can see the empty faces dreaming on a wishing well I can see them hoping praying that they’re on a carousel well i don’t wanna be like them i just want to walk along the sand while trying to ignore their masterplan I can see the birds fly by looking like a paper plane in the rain I can see the roller coasters origami maiden lane it’s snowing out in Arizona what the hell is going down they’re shaking hands and slapping five congratulate the perfect crime and I don’t wanna be like them I just want to walk along the sand while trying to ignore their masterplan Cause I watch the Sky Cause I watch the Sky Cause I watch the Sky Someone sits there taking minutes for someone who makes a speech me i stay above the fray I turn away and walk the beach and i don’t wanna be like them I just want to walk along the sand and trying to ignore their masterplan Cause I watch the Sky Cause I watch the Sky Cause I watch the Sky and i don’t wanna be like them I just want to walk along the sand and trying to ignore their masterplan Cause I watch the Sky Cause I watch the Sky Cause I watch the Sky

Hey here’s how the joke begins Cue up the violins and cry You’ve lost your final alibi Hey a penny for your thoughts If I connect the dots to find Your lost your latest state of mind Angels on the North State line Send me down a neon sign Don’t let me close my eyes I’m drifting in the dark Please light me up a spark Vapor trails across the sky I heard you testify your schemes But crazy’s always what it seems But, hey, before it all goes dark Let’s put this thing in park and see If we can keep the finder’s fee Angels on the North State line Send me down a neon sign Don’t let me close my eyes I’m drifting in the dark Please light me up a spark And why always shaking your finger Never were much of a singer Always hanging around You keep on playing your number Just sinking deeper in slumber Lost all hope you’d be found Angels on the North State line Send me down a neon sign Don’t let me close my eyes I’m drifting in the dark Please light me up a spark

ch: You should know you were made for the sky You should know you were made for the sky But you've taken the easy way // You've taken the easy way You've taken the easy way // You've taken the easy way ch: You should know you were made for the sky You should know you were made for the sky But you've taken the easy way // You've taken the easy way You've taken the easy way // You've taken the easy way v1: All the time it takes for you to lay down your bets It's not fear that's keeping you from living Keep in mind that you cannot erase your regrets It appears you are forgiven ch: You should know you were made for the sky You should know you were made for the sky But you've taken the easy way // You've taken the easy way You've taken the easy way // You've taken the easy way v2: When the whip comes down, it whispers in your ear "Watch out, boy, you've got some eyes upon you" You can leave this town, but you can never disappear No matter how much you might want to - some sort of solo - ch: You should know you were made for the sky You should know you were made for the sky But you've taken the easy way // You've taken the easy way You've taken the easy way // You've taken the easy way v3: Picture everything you love, in ash & dust Watch it blow away into the night air Venture forth in humbleness & love, but if you must... Be the answer to your own prayer

Traveling a lonely road I met a trickster there Moonlight shone between the trees and shimmered in her hair Flaxen gleam and soft moonbeams did quell the fear inside 'Scuse me sir, I've lost my way, much obliged for a ride Saddled up and rode a'way's keepin' much to ourselves She piped up 'bout a quarter two with tales she would tell Spun a yarn 'bout gods and men and their own private hells With a wave and stormy gaze a chilly silence fell Where are you going, my dear Vangeline Where do you wanna go I'll take you there, but dear Vangeline Is there something I should know Moments passed but at long last came a powerful thirst Mentioned to my charge a well where last we'd conversed She flashed a smile and turned about to head the other way Worried that she'd balk about, if she did she didn't say Watered there and in her hair flashed a time from before Saw in her a memory of light and open doors Brought it up, smiles fell away her coldness did disarm You'll find out dear, soon enough, ain't no cause for alarm Where are you going, my dear Vangeline Where do you wanna go I'll take you there, but dear Vangeline Is there something I should know Witching hours came and past we rode for morning light Midnight black gave way to blue ending oceans of night Asked her 'bout that strange story 'bout men and private hells There's that smile as I fade away to church's morning bells

We are all locked in a cage We are all counting the days With fear on the loose it’s easy to lose Sight of who you are and what you believe Tear at your soul and gnash your teeth Fire your guns at the waves of grief Somebody’s pulling all of the strings Fading dreams Watching it burn Sky full of screams Remind yourself to breathe We are all locked in a cage We are all counting the days With fear on the loose it’s easy to lose
