1. Believe/Revolt (Relocation Blueprint)

We've got the plan.
We've got the escape plan blueprint.
It's not for those who don't believe.
It's not for the self-indulgent.
It's not for the ordinary.
It's not for complacency.
Theres's hope for a revolution.
Get off of the assembly line!
We've got credentials right here.
We've got the power right now.
We've got the plan.
How about a new domain?
It's not for those who don't believe, with no time for imagination.
No desire for taking charge.
No care or motivation.
Revolt for evolution.
Get off of this planet now!
We've got the escape plan blueprint.
Get off this planet now!
There's hope for a revolution.
Revolt!

2. Dress Rehearsal

Five - Four...
System countdown will begin.
Will you honor your thoughts?
With ignition switches flipped, are you true to your word?
But we'll tell you once again.

Four - Three...
Don't be a deceiver because you know you'll be left to burn.
And you hold on to nothing when your feet never leave ground.

Your devotion is on the line.
Can you commit and sustain?
And when the take-off engines run, are you willing to die?
But we'll tell you once again...

Three - Two...
Don't be a deceiver because you know you'll be left to burn.
And you hold on to nothing when your feet never leave ground.

Five - Four - Three - Two - One...Go!
Kiss the ground one last time.

3. Blacktop

Your self control might be a muscle spasm
New direction isn't everlasting though
Grope for straws you've got to plan
This week
Then the crutch dissolves
When she walks too sweet

Ration of blacktop on the slope of
Nowhere
Came out to greet the unresponsive
Stare
Turn green with envy over something
You missed
You didn't know what when you
Fell down in it

Walk on top, you run beneath
The blacktop spreads
The blacktop spreads

4. Skeptic

Fall back in into the line and realize a time of no return,
don't look back!
Fear evokes anxiety and overwhelms the emotions that we bleed.
Embrace your freedom!

Something that you need to know,
of what it is we'll face;
An emotion that you cannot show,
but it has to be this way.

We lost ourselves deliberately to find ourselves a life of lesser pain.
Find a new Rhythm!
So we stand to look ahead and face ourselves to what we fear
the most a live that's uncertain!

And it only seems so strange right now.
And it only feels to be different now.

5. Ten A.M. (Good Morning, Mr. Coelacanth)

The opposition, carcinogenic sweat that hides.
The persecution, these hidden walls keep us aligned.
Yeah, they keep us in line.
Fourteen hours more.
Covert tonight.
The operation, a covert plan to get outside.
The consecration, an archetype of a will that shines.
Shining alive!
Will you die or can we keep you alive?
When there is a machine gun on every corner, you won't see me.
When there is a federal eye in every household, you won't see me.
When your every move is monitored, you won't see me.
And when it's all too late, you won't see me.

6. New Academy

Today's the first day for the new academy.
A life to pioneer.
We worked.
We won.
We're moving on.
No time to take a breath now.
A celebration for our crew on mission one;
A mission one won't forget.
We lost that world and gained a hope.
No time to take a breath.
We're looking at our past.
I don't know if it's lost for good, and can it really last?
But we won't, no we won't watch it.
Were looking down on this sphere that we had to leave;
A self destructive land.
We worked.
We won.
We're moving on.
No time to take a breath.
We set a fire today;
A fire without a flame;
A flame without a hope.
But we won't, no we won't watch it burn!
We're asking what we left.
We're asking, who we are, and what we're destined to become.
But we won't, no we won't watch it burn!

7. Mountain Song

comin' down the mountain
one of many children
everybody has
their own opinion
everybody has
their own opinion
holding it back
hurts so bad
jumping out of my flesh
and i said -
cash in!
cash in now honey
cash in now
cash in now
cash in now honey
cash in miss smith
cash in now!
i was coming down the mountain
met a child she had pin eyes
we had the same opinion
had the same opinion
she was holding it back
it hurts do bad
jumping out of her flesh
and i said -
cash in
cash in now honey
cash in now
cash in now
cash in now honey
cash in miss smith
cash in now

8. Depth Of Field

Well the field is wide open with endless new lands and infinite landscapes
for us to create now.
Yeah, I want to live in another light.
Yeah, I want to live.
Here the walls keep closing as we suffocate, but a door just opened wide.
We can't let us die.
We must prepare for a time to rise and then we'll face the truth.
We'll face ourselves.

9. Freedom Of Choice

victim of collision on the open sea
nobody ever said that life was free
sink swim go down with the ship
but use your freedom of choice
i say it again in the land of the free
use your freedom of choice
in ancient rome there was a poem
about a dog who had two bones
he picked at one he licked the other
he went in circles till he dropped dead
freedom of choice is what you got
freedom of choice is what you want
then if you got it you don't want it
seems to be the rule of thumb
don't be tricked by what you see
you got two ways to go

10. Gates Of Steel

twist away the gates of steel
unlock the secret voice
give in to ancient noise
take a chance a brand new dance
twist away the gates of steel
twist away now twist and shout
the earth it moves too slow
but the earth is all we know
we pay to play the human way
twist away the gates of steel
a man is real not made of steel
the beginning was the end (of everything now)
the ape regards his tail (he's stuck on it)
repeats until he fails
half a goon and half a god
a man's not made of steel
a man is real that's how he feels

11. Makeshift Tourniquet

Makeshift tourniquet will serve as your answer.
Clutch paramedic will be your constant call.
Keep alive all of your people.
They all need someone to bleed on.
You possess the breath of life;
Keeping alive.
Air induced poison slows our circulation.
Life support system calms palpitations.
You possess what's keeping us alive, this breath of life.

12. Exile Etiquette (Only British People Can Fly)

At midnight we make our move, and moonlight will guide our steps.
The armed eyes have been removed.
The spotlights, we'll time the sweep.
Surveillance; we blacked it out.
Pariahs are thousands strong.

Reclaim Identity!
Escape plan proceeds through the night.
Rebel forces have turned out.

Infrared, they see us now.
Adrenaline will test our nerves, and androids, the chase is on.
The next step, we'll block them out.
This barricade will buy us time.
Through smokescreens, we're on the move.

Reclaim identity!

The dark cloud has almost passed.
This mission has gone as planned.
Pariahs are in control.

Reclaim! Rebel forces have turned out.
