Songtext Apocalypse now and then Every Time I Die

Apocalypse now and then

You got me right where you wanted me.
So what do we do if I can't hold the pose for too long?
Do we sh-sh-sh-sh-shoot again, or does the whole operation shut down?
And we go back to the board.
I practiced all my lines oh yeah, I'd feed every child in the world.
But it's a one night stand baby.
We gotta keep on.
If you got it all then you got it right.

I'm gonna do what you say and get way out of line.
Nobody gonna stop me now.
It's not how it looks unless you saw nothing.
We all, agree, this proposal been sentenced to death.

Are we baiting the right hook to get your attention?
The media needs another blackout.
We've been calling.
Flooding hotlines.

We've applied mascara (to the radio)
But that's just a quick fix (and we need a little more, a little more).
Does it matter to you at all?
Are you listening or have you tuned out?

We g-g-gotta-gotta get it together!
F-f-f-first we drink you and take it all apart!
'cause everywhere we go we're the local boys and we're back in town.
Well that's just the way it is (and it breaks my heart).

We've applied mascara (to the radio)
But that's just a quick fix (and we need a little more, a little more)
Does it matter to you at all?
Are you listening or have you tuned out?

Get by!
Get gone!
Get high!
G-g-g-g-get wronged!
