All of the Poison, All of the Pain

[Chorus]

Away, away, I can't get away

From all of the poison, from all of the pain

Away, away, I can't get away

From ourselves we shut off, from ourselves we can't escape

[Verse 1]

The world is never quiet

Even silence makes a sound

A pin-prick, a blank strike

What was proud is still as proud

Watch it unfold on LCD screen sets

So we really, never, ever have to deal with it

[Pre-Chorus]

Each pixel is a story of what there was before

Each cathode ray disguises just what we're looking for

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]

From the great north to a working man's hand

There's a story in the desert

Below the cobblestones the sand

Our indulgence is just one step away

Lust has no end when there's no end and no one awake to say

[Bridge]

Are we afraid of you?

Are we the same as you?

[Verse 3]

Each pixel is a story of what there was before

Each wire tapped for water, to homogenize the poor

Each commercial will remind us that things couldn't get much worse

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[Chorus] (x3)
