~LYRICS~
We're born into silence then let it all be
A Fortune in silence then just float astray
Born into silence then let it all be
A Fortune in silence
HEY!
Watch it explode
While fragments of ironies examples fly
And hit the shore
And tyranny's torn
From the podiums where leaders stand
But rule no more
Plead with nothing why don't we lecture about something
Protest the way we're passive today
Watch it explode
While it's not impossible
For flowers to bloom and grow next to graves
And babies are born
In the same buildings where people go
To pass away
Pass away
Plead with nothing why don't we lecture about something
Protest the way we're passive today
We live like penguins in the desert
Why can't we live like tribes
We live like penguins in the desert
Why can't we live like tribes
We live like penguins in the desert
Why can't we live like tribes
(x2)
We live like penguins in the desert (Desert)
Why can't we live like tribes (HEY!)
Born into silence then let it all be
A Fortune in silence then just float astray
Born into silence then let it all be
A Fortune in silence

Ladies and gentlemen...the most under-rated band of our time!

This is one of the best performances I've ever seen.
