The Beginning of the End Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down on your knees, you'll be left behind
This is the beginning
Watch what you think, they can read your mind
This is the beginning
I got my mark, see it in my eyes
This is the beginning
My reflection I don't recognize
This is the beginning
[Chorus 1]
We think we climb so high
Up all the backs we've condemned
We face our consequence
This is the beginning of the end
[Verse 2]
You wait your turn, you'll be last in line
This is the beginning
Get out the way, 'cause I'm getting mine
This is the beginning
God helps the ones that can help themselves
This is the beginning
May be too late as far as I can tell
This is the beginning
[Chorus 2]
We think we've come so far
On all our lies we depend
Facing our consequence
This is the beginning of the end
Vessel Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I let you put it in my mouth
I let it get under my skin
I let you pump it through my veins
I let you take me from within
They tell us what we can and cannot do
Same thing we've heard a hundred times before
When I put you inside of me
None of that matters anymore
[Chorus]
My God
Can it go any faster?
Oh my God
I don't think I can last here
My God
Can it go any faster?
Oh my God
I don't think I can last here
[Verse 2]
I am you and you are me
We will never be alone
I have finally found my place in everything
I have finally found my home
I can leave all of the flesh behind
I can see right through the whole façade
I'm becoming something else, yeah
I am turning into God
[Chorus]
My God
Can it go any faster?
Oh my God
I don't think I can last here
My God
Can it go any faster?
Oh my God
I don't think I can last here
My God
Can it go any faster?
Oh my God
I don't think I can last here
My God
Can it go any faster?
Oh my God
I don't think I can last here
Me, I’m Not Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And it's happening
Never planned on this
You got something I need
Kind of dangerous
And I'm losing control
I'm not used to this
What you want from me?
I'm not used to this
I can't shut it off
This thing I've begun
And it's hard to tell, just
Where it's coming from
And it's hard to see
What I'm capable of
And it's hard to believe, just
What I've become
[Chorus]
Hey, can we stop?
Me, I'm not
Hey, can we stop?
Me, I'm not
Hey, can we stop?
Me, I'm not
Hey, can we stop?
Me, I'm not
[Verse 2]
I can swallow it down
Keep it all inside
I define myself
By how well I hide
I feel it coming apart
Well, at least I tried
I can win this war
By knowing not to fight
If I take it all back
Some way, somehow
If I knew back then
What I know right now
[Chorus]
Hey, can we stop?
Me, I'm not
Hey, can we stop? C'mon
Me, I'm not
Hey, can we stop?
Yeah, me, I'm not
Hey, can we stop?
Me, I'm not
[Outro]
Me, I'm not
Me, I'm not
Me, I'm not
Me, I'm not
Me, I'm not
Me, I'm not
Me, I'm not
Me, I'm not
Capital G Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I pushed a button and elected him to office and uh
He pushed a button and it dropped a bomb
You pushed a button and could watch it on the television
Those motherfuckers didn't last too long, ha-ha
I'm sick of hearing about the haves and the have-nots
Have some personal accountability
The biggest problem with the way that we've been doing things is
The more we let you have, the less that I'll be keeping for me
[Chorus]
Well, I used to stand for something
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Traded in my God for this one
And he signs his name with a capital G
[Verse 2]
Don't give a shit about the temperature in Guatemala
Don't really see what all the fuss is about
Ain't gonna worry 'bout no future generations and uh
I'm sure somebody gonna figure it out
Don't try to tell me how some power can corrupt a person
You haven't had enough to know what it's like
You're only angry 'cause you wish you were in my position
Now nod your head because you know that I'm right, alright
[Chorus]
Well, I used to stand for something
But forgot what that could be
There's a lot of me inside you
Maybe you're afraid to see
Well, I used to stand for something
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Traded in my God for this one
And he signs his name with a capital G
[Post-Chorus]
Greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed, greed, greed, greed
[Chorus]
Well, I used to stand for something
But forgot what that could be
There's a lot of me inside you
Maybe you're afraid to see
Well, I used to stand for something
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Traded in my God for this one
And he signs his name with a capital G
[Post-Chorus]
Greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed, greed, greed, greed

Zero Sum Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They're starting to open up the sky
They're starting to reach down through
And it feels like we're living in that split-second of a car crash
And time is slowing down
And if we only had a little more time
And this time is all there is
Do you remember the time we...?
And all the times we...?
And should have...?
And were going to...?
I know
And I know you remember
How we could justify it all
And we knew better
In our hearts we knew better
And we told ourselves it didn't matter
And we chose to continue
And none of that matters anymore
In the hour of our twilight
And soon it will be all said and done
And we will all be back together, as one
If we will continue at all
[Chorus]
Shame on us, doomed from the start
May God have mercy on our dirty little hearts
Shame on us for all we have done
And all we ever were, just zeroes and ones
[Verse 2]
And you never get away
And you never get to take the easy way
And all of this is a consequence
Brought on by our own hand
If you believe in that sort of thing
And did you ever really find
When you closed your eyes
Any place that was still
And at peace?
And I guess I just wanted to tell you
As the light starts to fade
That you are the reason
That I am not afraid
And I guess I just wanted to mention
As the heavens will fall
We will be together soon, if we
Will be anything at all
[Chorus]
Shame on us, doomed from the start
May God have mercy on our dirty little hearts
Shame on us for all we have done
And all we ever were, just zeroes and ones
Shame on us (shame on us), doomed from the start
May God have mercy on our dirty little hearts
Shame on us for all we have done (shame on us)
And all we ever were just, (just) zeroes and ones
