Express lyrics

Walking through the alleys
Working through your vanities
Here comes another lesson
The lesson is life
LOVE ME
Walking through the heavens
Walking with your devils
Here comes another lesson
The lesson you'll live
The lesson is life
LOVE ME
I'm only interested in paradise
I'm only interested in paradise
I'm only working working working
Working working working
Working so hard

Under the wheel of the running train
Like a dog in the pouring rain
Diamond days cut and dry
But beauty in the hurricane's eye
Under fire under thumb
No golden hand no golden sun
Diamond days cut and dry
But beauty in the hurricane's eye
Chorus:
Beauty beauty beauty beautiful
Beauty beauty beauty beautiful
Alcohol is your yoga baby
Gonna call out my name
Then I'm gonna rain

Dupes of a Disney
Frozen stiff
Lost in the Hollywood hills
Where dreams as real as Fredericks
Are sustained on air by pills
Where all the red that's in the world
Bleeds into all the blue
Where film stars leave their footprints
And failed stars join the queue
Everywhere's a backdrop
To a scripted play
A film show of a preview
Of life in laralay
Life in laralay
Life in laralay

This is an announcement
For the transcendental run
The train now standing
Leaves for higher planes
Due to a derailment
There will be no other train
So why not hop on this one?
Hear the porter's glad refrain
Each carriage is connected
As is every single train
The rails all form a track
Which is a link within a chain
The chain's connected to another chain now
You will need no ticket

You can get from here to there
By leaps and bounds or measured steps
You can make it dark or fair
Depending on your point of view
You can get a taste of the glory
By the ingestion of a simple truth
You can take a look around
See the outside, see the inside too
Are you on a road to nowhere?
Are you riding a train to Heaven or Hell?
Are you in search of somewhere

And I was dreaming in my sleep
Saw through you all
And I was dreaming still on my feet
Saw through you all

And I saw what you could be
And you just don't feel free

And I saw what you could be
But you just won't be real to me

So let's blame this excess
On an American dream
So let's blame the success
Of an American dream

Are you confused by the chaos

Walk around so cold
So cold and lonely
Or lay in bed wondering what
To do with time
You've got no sense of fun
Until you know you've won again
And yet you feel so much
You feel so much inside
You want to rip all the
Jewels off all the idiots' backs so badly
You scream give me what I've always
Missed, give me a good time
But if you look into your mirror

Walk around so cold so cold so lonely
Or lay in bed wondering what to do with time
You've got no sense of fun
Until you know you've won again
And yet you feel so much
You feel so much inside
OHHHH
Her beauty can only ever be skin deep
But if I'm honest that's all I ever really need
So throw us some flowers
We'll give you some songs and sunshine
And if you give me an hour

People moving out, people moving in

Why, because of the color of their skin

Run, run, run but you just can't hide

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
Vote for me and I'll set you free

Rap on, rap on brother, rap on

Well, the only person talking about love today is the preacher

And it seems nobody's interested in learning but the teacher

(Instrumental)
