CD 1

1. FORCED IN

Push me in
Into there
Force me in
Into there

Screaming
Into there

Push me in
Into there
WIth force
Into there
Into there
Into there


2. SHRINKING UNIVERSE

Cast your eye tears on to me
And I'll show you what you really need
Give too much attention
And I'll reflect your imperfections

Can't you see it's over?
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe

Purposeless survival
Now there's nothing left to die for
So don't struggle to recognise
Now they call it "Heart-felt suicide"

Can't you see it's over?
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe

[Matt Bellamy's falsetto ooooooooooooooooooooooooowawaoo-ing]

Can't you see it's over?
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe.


3. RECESS

Resuscitate
In my sleep
Awake to see
You're never here

But the losing yields
Another year
Facing hopes and fears

And I wish
I could believe there was more
Hopes suffocating
You've kissed my life

And the planes and trains
Are to blame
For tempting us
To refrain
And to cut the chord
Dis every word
Of the truths absurd

And I wish
I could believe there was more
Hopes suffocating
You've kissed my life

Hopes suffocating
Hopes suffocating
Hopes suffocating
And you've kissed my life


4. YES PLEASE

Hooohoooha yes please HAHA!

I cannot sleep
There's too much noise in my head*
I cannot sleep
I want it here instead*

I never thought that this could come to this
I just wanna look at your face in peace now
You'll never miss
But I can

[Maniacal laughter]

I cannot keep
The shame that's clawed us out
I will not keep
Your shut-up, shut-up lies

I never thought that this could come to this
I just wanna live in bliss, in peace now
You will never miss
But I can

[More maniacal laughter]


5. MAP OF YOUR HEAD

I'm sick of feeling my soul
To people who'll never know
Just how purposeless and empty they've grown
Because the language confuses
like computers refuse to understand how I'm feeling today

I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head

I saw a liquid control
That gives life to a soul
I hit my head on it and woke up to know
That I was all alone
Wearing just socks and a phone
Someone's screaming like their world might explode

Yeah I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't want another map of your head

Freezing and losing my way
I don't want another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head


6. NATURE_1

Conforming on a monday
Too often and too cold
But you aren't even listening
Because you are just

Too old to feel an earthquake
Or too cool to even care
But you aren't even listening
So why should I?

You are
A natural disaster
And I've wanted you too much
And now I'm gonna lose
I've wanted you too much
And now I've gotta choose

You're the cause of all this
And I'm sick of trying to please you
And you're gonna feel my emotions coming
Because you're the world

Like a broken damn you're empty
And all that's left are the sticks and stones
That were built by other people
And it really shows
But you aren't even listening
Because you are just

Too old to feel an earthquake
Or too cool to even care
But you aren't even listening
So why should I?

You are
A natural disaster
And I've wanted you too much
And now I'm gonna lose
I've wanted you too much
And now I've gotta choose

You're the cause of all this
And I'm sick of trying to please you
And you're gonna feel my emotions coming
Because you're the world


7. SHINE ACOUSTIC

Who-oo cares for the life we've earned?
Someone's saved all the truth you've earned
Remember when we used to shine?
And had no fear? Or sense of time?
(It creeps up on you)

You can't cry now
There's nothing to feel
No-one's noticed our loneliness
Remember when you used to tease?
And make us scream eternal joys

We believed that you'll always be here
'Cause once you promised a life with no fear
Please don't break my ideals
And say what's fake was always real

Hope was the one, now I'm gone
Take us back again.


8. ASHAMED

I know there's something that you're dying to tell me
I hope it's not about your iffy affair
Make sure no-one finds out and tell me all about it
Don't keep it to yourself 'cause I can't bear it
I'd never leave you crying
I know you're crying
Doesn't matter 'cause I'm in control

I know that you're ashamed
So bad it nearly kills you
Don't you know that you're ashamed
So much it almost kills you

There's always something that makes you guilty
There's still something that you're dying to tell me

Make sure no-one finds out
And tell me all about it
Don't keep it to yourself
'Cause I can't bear it
I'd never leave you crying
Oh, no you're crying
That doesn't matter 'cause I'm in control

I know that you're ashamed
So much it nearly kills you
Don't you know that you're ashamed
So much it nearly kills you


9. THE GALLERY

(Instrumental)


10. HYPER CHONDRIAC MUSIC

Golden eyes
Feed my role
This forgotten space race
Under my control
Who's returned from the dead?
Who remains?

You wanted more than I was worth
You think I was scared, yeah
And you needed proof
Who really cares anymore?
Who restrains?

oooooommmmmmmowowow
ooooooooooo

I don't love you
I never did
I don't love you
I never will.


CD 2 RECORDED LIVE AT LE ZENITH, PARIS, FRANCE, 28-29.11.2001


1. DEAD STAR

Shame on you for thinking
You're an exception
We're all to blame
Crashing down to earth
Wasting and burning out
Fading like a dead star
Harm is coming your way
It's coming your way

And you used to be everything to me
And now you're tired of fighting
Tired of fighting
Fighting yourself

Shame on you for thinking
You're all alone
If you want I'll make you wish you were
Failing to impress
Why can't you sleep with
Someone who'll protect you?
Harm is coming your way
It's coming your way

And you used to be everything to me
And now you're tired of fighting
Tired of fighting
Fighting yourself


2. MICRO CUTS

Hands are red with your blame
Megaphone screaming my name
Whimpers someone I should've loved
Souls weeping above

I've seen what you're doing to me
Destroying puppet strings
To our souls

Micro waves me insane
A blade cuts in your brain
To sounds like a fork on a plate
Blackboard scratched with hate

I've seen what you're doing to me
Destroying puppet strings
To our souls


3. CITIZEN ERASED

Break me in,
Teach us to cheat
And to lie, cover up
What shouldn't be shared?
All the truth unwinding
Scraping away
At my mind
Please stop asking me to describe him

For one moment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open minded
I'm sure I used to be so free

Self expressed, exhausting for all
To see and to be
What you want and what you need
The truth unwinding
Scraping away
At my mind
Please stop asking me to describe

For one moment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open minded
I'm sure I used to be so free

For one moment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open minded
I'm sure I used to be so free

Wash me away
Clean your body of me
Erase all the memories
They will only bring us pain
And I've seen all I'll ever need


4. SHOWBIZ

Controlling my feelings for too long
Controlling my feelings for too long
Controlling my feelings for too long
Controlling my feelings for too long
Forcing our darkest souls to unfold
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold
Pushing us into self destruction
Pushing us into self destruction

And they make me
Make me dream your dreams
And they make me
Make me scream your screams

Trying to please you for too long
Trying to please you for too long
Visions of greed you wallow
Visions of greed you wallow
Visions of greed you wallow
Visions of greed you wallow

And they make me
Make me dream your dreams
And they make me
Make me scream your screams

Controlling my feelings for too long
Controlling my feelings for too long
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold
And pushing us into self destruction
And pushing us into self destruction

And they make me
Make me dream your dreams
And they make me
Make me scream your screams


5. MEGALOMANIA

Paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Could someone tell me please?

The good news is, she can't have babies
And wont accept gifts from me
What are they for?
They'll just grow up, and break the laws you've loved

Take off your disguise
I know that underneath
It's me

Useless device, it won't suffice
I want a new game to play
When I am gone
It won't be long, before I disturb you in the dark

And paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Will someone tell me please?

Take off your disguise
I know that underneath
It's me


6. DARK SHINES

Passing by you light up my darkest skies
You take only seconds to draw me in
So be mine and your innocence I will consume

Dark shines
Bringing me down
Making my heart feel sore
Because it's good

Hold your hands up to your eyes again
Hide from the scary scenes, suppress your fears
So be mine and your innocence I will consume

Dark shines
Bringing me down
Making my heart feel sore
Because it's good
You're dark shines
Bringing me down
Making my heart feel sore
Because it's good

Dark shines
Bringing me down
Making my heart feel sore
Because it's good


7. SCREENAGER

Who's so phoney and always surrounded?
Stop your screaming, no one can hear
All the scars on your skin: "Post no bills"

Who you were
Was so beautiful
Remember who, who you were

Hide from the mirror, the cracks and the memories
Hide from your family, they won't know you now
For all the holes in our soul host no thrills

Who you were
Was so beautiful
Memories who, who you were


8. SPACE DEMENTIA

Mmmmm,
H8 is the one for me
It gives me all I need
and helps me co-exist
With the chill

You make me sick
Because I adore you so
I love all the dirty tricks
And twisted games you play
On me

Space dementia in your eyes and
Peace will arise
And tear us apart
And make us meaningless again

Mmmm, yeah
You'll make us wanna die
I'd cut your name in my heart
Will destroy this world for you
I know you want me to
Feel your pain

Space dementia in your eyes and
Peace will arise
And tear us apart
And make us meaningless again

Ooooh ...


9. IN YOUR WORLD

I'm hurting you again
Too lonely to pretend
Like everything is new
I promise you to
Blow it all away

In your world
No one is crying alone
In your world
No one is dying alone

Too broken to belong
too weak to sing along
I'll comfort you my friend
Helping you to
Blow it all away

In your world
No one is crying alone
In your world
No one is dying alone


10. MUSCLE MUSEUM

She had something to confess to
But you don’t have the time so
Look the other way
You will wait until it's over
To reveal what you’d never shown her
Too little much too late

Too long trying to resist it
You’ve just gone and missed it
It's escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I don’t want you to adore me
Don’t want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I’ll do it on my own

I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove I’ve made a big mistake
Too long trying to resist it
You’ve just gone and missed it
It's escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I don’t want you to adore me
Don’t want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I’ll do it on my own
I’ll do it on my own


11. AGITATED

You make me agitated,
You know i appreciate it
Why can't i complicate it
So why should i look at you
My love here is so true (very uncertain about that)
Yeah

You do it to me sweetly
Do them yeaahhh
You do it to me lovely
Do they yeaahhh

You try to make me crazy
You make me agitated
And then i'm suffocated
And why should i look at you
My love here is so true

You do it to me sweetly
Do them yeaahh
You do it to me lovely
Do they yeaahh
