Now I know why I feel like I'm always standing still
Even though my wheels keep on turning
Running through the sand I'm a beat behind the band
And the drum machine keeps on burning
Everything that I need is right in front of me
Everything that I need is right in front of me
Bonanza
Bonanza
Fight and give em hell until you hear the bell
Then head on back to your corner
If you ever make something of your name
You'll find out what you owe her
Everything that I need is right in front of me
Everything I can see is waiting there for me
Bonanza
Bonanza
I'll cash in on my claim
Nothing will ever be the same
Bonanza
Bonanza
Bonanza

American Treasure

Don’t wanna make things hard for you
Cause I know you’re broken
You tell your friends you’re bulletproof
So they’ll cut you open
Just like her burning cigarette, nothing lasts forever
Is this as good as it will get?
You always say you’re gonna move
One of these mornings
Nothing left for you to prove
Leave without warning
The outbound train leaves here at nine
Headed for the sunset
I think it’s time to take a ride
The horizon line calls out your name, American treasure
It’s alright if I don’t feel the same

It's In Your Head

Walk on water sell your soul
Turn paper into gold
Heaven knows that rock n' roll ain't free
The serpent burns the midnight oil
Lying breathless in the soil
I feel the python coil around me
It's not what it seems
It's all just inside your head
It's only a dream
Baby come back to bed
And rest your head
Sleep instead don't be scared
Wrap the pharaoh in a sheet
Lay treasures at his feet
The pyramids are bittersweet for kings
What are you waiting for?
Is one foot outside the door?
Will I wait forevermore? she sings
It's not what it seems
It's all just inside your head
It's only a dream
Baby come back to bed
And rest your head
Sleep instead don't be scared

How To Pay Attention
04:10

Make sure you're taking your pills
The mind is not strong enough for much free will
All of the roses have died
I soaked the flowers with love and pesticides
You need not worry
You need not worry but I need you to care
My sleep is desynchronized
Here come the rapid movements of my eyes
Sure feels like I am awake
Don't know how much more of this dream I can take
You need not worry
You need not worry but I need you to care
You need not worry
You need not worry but I need you to care
You need not worry and you need not care
Cling tight and lose all control
The band is grinding their teeth for rock n' roll
You need not worry but I need you to care
You need not worry and you need not care
We don't know how to pay attention
Taking orders from our phones
Overflow of information that comes as quickly as it goes
We don't know how to pay attention
We don't know how to pay attention
