All around this city there’s a wall of fire Come on take my hand before the flames get higher This chance we have ain't gonna last forever If we die tonight we're gonna die together Look at me It's gonna be alright We’ve got each other I'm not leaving you behind Now, Grab your things we are out of time You gotta run with me Like you’ve never run before All around this city there’s a wall of fire C’mon take my hand before the flames go higher Our chance to leave ain't gonna last forever If we fly tonight we're gonna fly together Come with me There’s no turning back It’s our only chance And we’ll finally be free I know it’s hard After all we’ve built Let’s get out of here Before this place burns to the ground All around this city there’s a wall of fire Come on take my hand before the flames go higher This one chance we have ain't gonna last forever If we run tonight we're gonna run together All around the planet there’s a ring of fire Come on take my hand before the flames burn higher It’s our only chance for us to be together If we live tonight, we're gonna live forever

These towers stand like sentries Silent sentinels Distant lights against the sky Beneath their mask of silence Lies a voice of steel Calling from Television Hill I’m on television I’m on television Put me on television I’m on television I’m on television Put me on television Time passes by so quickly When you learn to stare Never stop to wonder why So take these lights and shadows And cast them in the air From here on Television Hill I’m on television I’m on television Put me on television I’m on television I’m on television Put me on television (spoken) These towers stand like sentries Silent sentinels Distant lights against the sky Beneath their mask of silence Lies a voice of steel Calling from Television Hill Time passes by so quickly When you learn to stare Never stop to wonder why So take these lights and shadows And cast them in the air From here on Television Hill I’m on television I’m on television Put me on television I’m on television I’m on television Put me on television I’m on television I’m on television Put me on television

Run run run from my baby I tried to tie you down But no chain’s gonna stop you Runnin’ circles over me She tryin’ to drive me crazy I never know where she’ll be But every time I think I’m there She slips away from me Come a come come to me baby Let’s stop this silly game Cuz in the end you know you’re gonna Circle back to me So try to make your mind up Let’s cut right to the chase Now only you can stop the pain and Break out of this race Cuz you’re a moving target (No chain’s gonna stop you runnin’ No chain’s gonna stop you girl) Cuz you’re a moving target (No chain’s gonna stop you runnin’ No chain’s gonna stop you girl) You drive me Crazy You drive me Crazy You drive me Crazy You drive me Crazy (No chain’s gonna stop you runnin’ No chain’s gonna stop you girl) Cuz you’re a moving target (No chain’s gonna stop you runnin’ No chain’s gonna stop you girl) Cuz you’re a moving target (No chain’s gonna stop you runnin’ No chain’s gonna stop you girl) Cuz you’re a moving target …

There’s light on the rooftops There’s light in our hearts And ever so gently It pulls us apart Ever so gently It pulls us apart We crushed all our temples Beneath our desires Now all that’s above us Are the high-tension wires All that’s above us Are the high-tension wires And out of the factories Shines the light of the world And out of the factories Shines the light of the world (spoken) The world when I was young Was a solid world A world where all kinds of things That have now disappeared Were thought to be Going to last forever It didn’t dawn on people That they would ever cease… You’re drifting away now You’re out of my reach The sound of the engines Drowns out your speech The sound of the engines Drowns out your speech There’s nothing to see here There’s nothing to learn We won’t even be here To watch it all burn We won’t even be here To watch it all burn And out of the factories Shines the light of the world And out of the factories Shines the light of the world And out of the factories Shines the light of the world And out of the factories Shines the light of the world

It does not include versions that were already released on Bandcamp (elsewhere in our discography). These mixes, therefore, are only available here.
