Get a little closer
Let me see your eyes
Didn't stop to notice all warning signs
Can't get any higher
Don't you wanna know
While you were away
They changed your name and code
Hear the sound
That's changing all around
You've gone too far
City lights are spiked
The wolves are out tonight
Manic Distortion
Sink or swim
Out of proportion
Gonna crash or mend
Speak a little louder
Can't hear your new voice
It's harder to focus past the inner noise
Something on computor
Another soul to load
New world out of order
The news is so exposed
Are you leaving, will you wake up
It's gone too far
Way too far
Will you stay a million miles away
Manic distortion
Sink or swim
Wheel out of motion
Gonna crash or mend
Are you leaving, will you wake up
It's binding now
Everything has changed
It's all deranged
Manic Distortion
Sink or swim
Out of proportion
Gonna crash or mend
May Day
