Not For Sale

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Why are you leaving? Something to believe in

Just left the building here comes nothing

Seen the revolution go full circle

And now it's so much more relaxing

Where are they going? Didn't they know it's

Hard for us to feel rejected

Contrast - diction number one, 'it can be done

Without losing our perspective'

Some will come and some will go

But some will stay despite temptation

Music bought and sold back

Is a shadow of its generation

What it meant and what it means

Is in our heads not on the screen

Communication interaction

Liveliness and satisfaction

This is what we get from music

Corporations just abuse it

We keep our own company

This culture is not for sale

Why all the complaining? Nobody's the same when

It comes down to hard decisions

But how far do you take it? Do you need to make it?

What's the price of your opinions?

Ideas come and ideas go

And some will stay to form the picture

In our heads or on the screens

Acted out or sold as culture

It's a lifestyle revolution

Just to share ideas for free

Your revolution will not be televised

Except on pay-per-view T.V.

This is what we get for asking

For someone else to do it for us

A culture full of instancy

This culture is not for sale

Well they outlined all the options

And gave us the directions

And told us lead don't follow anyone

It was hard to stop once started

And the promises soon departed

And we found out it was business and not fun

Now where's the reason for it?

The starting point's obscure, it's

Getting hard to recognised a friend

These men in suits and braces

Have no feelings on their faces

When they ask us to re-write that song again, no

It's not just music it's not just views

It's almost anything artistic

It's not just art that's only part of

Expression free from greed and profit

This culture, this culture...

Our culture

Is not for sale, not for sale...

[Breaking A Habit]

Repetition

That it's what I always do

No more life in two dimension

Habit retention

It's a habit

Got to grab it

And to break it up

Into pieces

The cycle never ends

Another habit

Repetition

And addiction

Routine

It's a habit

It was beautiful

So we grab it

And we broke it

Into little pieces

Speed it up and make a mess

Of anything, anything...

I want to throw it all away

I want to throw it all away

Routine

Repetition

Press the button

Here we go again

You can't have it back again

No, no, no

I'm gonna throw it all away

I'm gonna do something today
