Track 08 off of 99 Songs of Revolution, Volume I. Streetlight Manifesto's version of They Provide the Paint by Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution.
Lyrics:
There is a man with no face and a name I dont remember always in the house in the middle of the woods
And he said once Son, dont you laugh out loud for they are listening, oh, they are listening.
Oh youve got to be strong, Oh, youve got to keep holding on. Its now just a matter of time
They provide the paint for the picture perfect masterpiece that you will paint on the insides of your eyelids;
Can you possibly see anything you want to see? No (Hell No!) Theres nothing wrong with the way I see
And he wanted to be a soldier in the next great war he wanted to kill and fight and maim but not be told what he was fighting for.
And thats the way its gonna have to be my friend, and thats the way its gonna have to be my friend.
I passed a man on the corner in the city yesterday singing, Yada yada yada and tomorrow itll end. I never thought Id live to see another sunny day
But Im here and I fear I'll be here until the end.
So watch your mouth, or youre gonna make a grave mistake.
Hold your tongue, or youre gonna catch a bullet in the head.
Watch your mouth, or youre gonna make a grave mistake.
Dont die for anything less than the best of life.
The things he said went to your head, you never tried to understand: "What they take you will never take back,
'Cause they take what they take when they can cause they can from you.
You follow me and you follow me but you never ask why and I wonder what youre under could this be another piece
Of the, I dont care I just do what they say because they say what to do in a matter-of-fact way.
Dont stop because you might get burned and you might just learn to stand on your own two feet
And I think that its neat how you learn to repeat everything that you hear in the street so well.
Learn to repeat everything that you hear so well
Learn to repeat everything that you hear so well
And everyone was resting because they thought it was the end
And even if it wasnt they decided theyd pretend
And somewhere in the distance I could hear him whispering
You can fight all you want they will win in the end.
Sometimes in the evening when Im lying in my bed, I am taken to the forest to the isolated shed,
And I wake with his words resonating in my head and I cant stop thinking about the gist of what he said.
So watch your mouth, or youre gonna make a grave mistake.
Hold your tongue or youre gonna catch a bullet in the head.
Watch your mouth or youre gonna make a grave mistake.
Dont die for anything less than the best of
Everyone settles for the rest not the best of
I will die for no less than the best of life.

Streetlight Lullabies 01
Lyrics:
and so she wakes up
in time to break down
she left a note up on the dresser
and she's right on time
you don't know anything
right or wrong
i said i know
and she said so
i want to panic
but i've had it
so i go
you don't owe anything to anyone
but don't take your life
because it's all that you've got
you'd be better off just up and leaving
if you don't think they will stop
and when you wake up
everything is going to be fine
i guarantee that you wake up in a better place
and in a better time
so you're tired of living
and you feel like you might give in
well don't
it's not your time
looking through the paper today
looking for a specific page
don't want to find her full name followed by dates
because when i left her alone
she made a sound, like a moan
"you're known by everyone for everything you've done"
fuck buying flowers for graves
i'd rather buy you a one way non-stop
to anywhere
find anyone
do anything
forget and start again, love
she said she won't go
and that's that
it hurts too much to stand by
you've got to stop and draw a line
and everyone here has to choose a side tonight
the moment of truth is haunting you
don't forget your family
regardless of what you choose to do
you can't decide
and they're screaming "why won't you?"
i'll start the engine but i can't take this ride for you
i'll draw the bath and i'll load your gun
but i hope so bad that you bathe and hunt
annie's tired of forgetting about today and always planning for tomorrow (tomorrow)
annie says "the saddest day i came acrosss was when i learned that life goes on without me" (without me)
annie says "if everyone has someone else, then i ain't got nobody's love to save me" (save me)
annie says "i think i'll pass away tonight, because it seems i'll never get it right if it's just me" (just me)
and when you wake up
everything is going to be fine
i guarantee that you wake up in a better place
and in a better time
so you're tired of living
and you feel like you might give in
well don't
it's not your time
annie says she wouldn't mind if they never find a cure for all her problems (her problems)
annie says as long as she has someone near to make it clear she does not need to solve them (solve them)
"oh, this loneliness is killing me
it's filling me with anger and resentment (resentment)
i'm turning into someone that i never thought i'd have to be again"
and when you wake up
everything is going to be fine
i guarantee that you wake up in a better place
and in a better time
so you're tired of living
and you feel like you might give in
well don't
it's not your time
annie's tired of forgetting about today and always planning for tomorrow (tomorrow)
annie says "the saddest day i came acrosss was when i learned that life goes on without me" (without me)
annie says "if everyone has someone else, then i ain't got nobody's love to save me" (save me)
annie says "i think i'll pass away tonight, because it seems i'll never get it right if it's just me" (just me)
and when you wake up
everything is going to be fine
i guarantee that you wake up in a better place
and in a better time
so you're tired of living
and you feel like you might give in
well don't
it's not your time
and even if it was
i wouldn't let you go
you could run run run run but i will follow close
someday you will say "that's it, that's all"
but i'll be waiting there with open arms to break your fall
i know that you think that you're on your own
but just know that i'm here
and i'll lead you home
if you let me
she said "forget me"
but i can't

PM if there is something wrong with the lyrics
Lyrics:
Thought I was alone in my utter disgust
Till the old me started to bleed, and we became us
Lust and mistrust and their social halitosis
Combust to form stardust, burning nuclear gust
Who sets presidents up to farm oil?
It's those pigs whose tails curl out to pointed coil
If you wanna know more than mark 'yes' at the end of your test
In repsonse to your call of distress - we're the best!
(Meet me in the back room)
I'll tell you everything, you everything, whoa
(Meet me in the back room)
Just run away with me, just lay with me, whoa
They say rebellion exists in despair and their ironic facial hair
The Devil may, or may not care
I saw the look she gave to Mr. Cred
She said, 'Don't let that blow go to your head.'
She took my hand instead
There's nothing like the brain of a beautiful girl
Where they grasp the fallacy of the world
We're in the back room, back to back
Breathing hard, reading the file on the heart they sought to defile
(Meet me in the back room)
I'll tell you everything, you everything, whoa
(Meet me in the back room)
Just run away with me, just lay with me, whoa
(Meet me in the back room)
I'll tell you everything, you everything, whoa
(Meet me in the back room)
Just run away with me, just lay with me, whoa
Alright!
(Meet me in the back room)
I'll tell you everything, you everything, whoa
(Meet me in the back room)
Just run away with me, just lay with me, whoa
(Meet me in the back room)
I'll tell you everything, you everything, whoa
(Meet me in the back room)
Just run away with me, just lay with me, whoa
She won't follow you, she won't follow you, she won't follow!
She won't follow you, she won't follow you, she won't follow!
