Aberdeen City: Sixty Lives

There is no one
In the front now
All the weak ones
Group together
Let them have their day
You'll have yours

Keep it quiet
Through the yelling
Watch his back don't
Lift a finger
You can make your noise
When they're gone

Fall Back its easy
I know it happens on occasion
Friends at your back
Cause they have the guilt of sixty lives

I won't respond to prove them wrong
I know not much better
But I'll sleep well

All the barking
All the baiting
Sort of sorry
Saw it coming
Not so loud standing
On your own

So this is us
A dirty thing
We need some cleaning
We need some chain
Focus on this
A dirty thing
It needs a cleaning
It needs a change

A Perfect Circle: Imagine

Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine there's no countries,
It isn't hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...


You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
and the world will be as one.


Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

Imagine no possessions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

A Perfect Cicle: Gravity

Lost again
Broken and weary
Unable to find my way
Tail in hand
Dizzy and clearly unable to
Just let this go

I am surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live

I fell again
Like a baby unable to stand on my own
Tail in hand
Dizzy and clearly unable to just let this go
High and surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live

Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
Help me survive the bottom

Calm these hands before they
Snare another pill and
Drive another nail down another
Needy hole please release me

I am surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live, I choose to live

A Perfect Circle: Three Libras

Threw you the obvious
And you flew with it on your back
A name in your recollection
Down among a million same...
Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed,
And passed over
When i've looked right through to see you naked and oblivious,
And you don't see me
But i threw you the obvious,
Just to see if there's more behind the
Eyes of a fallen angel,
Eyes of a tragedy
Here i am expecting just a little bit too much from the wounded
But i see through it all and see you
So i threw you the obvious to see
What occurs behind the
Eyes of a fallen angel
Eyes of a tragedy
Oh well, apparently nothing
Apparently nothing, at all
You don't see me
You don't see me at all

A Perfect Circle: Passive

“Dead as dead can be,” my doctor tells me
But I just can’t believe him, never the optimistic one
I’m sure of your ability to become my perfect enemy
Wake up and face me, don’t play dead cause maybe
Someday I will walk away and say, “You disappoint me,”
Maybe you’re better off this way

Leaning over you here, cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection of what you could and might have been
It's your right and your ability
To become…my perfect enemy…

Wake up and face me, don’t play dead cause maybe
Someday I’ll walk away and say, “You disappoint me,”
Maybe you’re better off this way

Maybe you’re better off this way
Maybe you’re better off this way
Maybe you’re better off this way
You’re better of this…you’re better off this…
Maybe you’re better off!

Wake up and face me, don’t play dead cause maybe
Someday I’ll walk away and say, “You fucking disappoint me!”
Maybe you’re better off this way

Go ahead and play dead
I know that you can hear this
Go ahead and play dead
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
You fucking disappoint me!
