* is a harmonic
x6): (I) (*)
Do you hear those distant voices
And sounds through the flames
The deafening drone
Of these clanking machines
In the lights
It's the same
We're trying to free
( palm mute)
The sculpture from the stone
We'll take the rhythm from the throne
If the radio is dying
Listen to me won't you listen to me
I don't want to lie in a bed of ashes
I don't want to burn in a midnight sun
I don't want to know if the system crashes
I don't want to go if it's just begun
I don't want to lie in a bed of ashes
(II) Intro (x4)
I don't want to burn in the midnight sun
In the midnight sun
I scream like a madman in the morning
No one heard a thing
I had hoped for a more effective warning
No one felt the sting
( palm mute)
Someone's savior never saved
Take it away 'till there's nothing left to say
The radio is dying
Listen to me
Won't you listen to me
Dancing like a child
Will we feel at all
Or just smile in another pretty prison
The wires frayed and broken free
(pick scrape down)
It's loud as hell but I don't want to listen
Is existentialism so desperate?
(pick scrape up)
Condition may seem painful but it won't last
I just march, march
Sometimes I get the last laugh
Machines and dreams
To make the choices for you
Machines and dreams
I won't go out like that
Machines and dreams
To make the choices for you
Machines and dreams--
I won't go out
