Asleep at the wheel

You didn't know till it's too late

'Til now you're blinded by the things you could not see

The land of the free is no safe haven now

Because you don't want to try - you don't want to die

You've got everything in life but the answer's why

You don't really know how it's going to be

So pretend it'll be O.K.



Look who you are - just a member of society

In a tragic comedy - pretending it will be O.K.

Look who you are - just a particle of history

Another faceless casualty - pretending it will be O.K.



A rat in a cage accept the things you can't deny

Do you - recognize the lie you have become - like everyone

You're afraid to face the truth

And now you can't get away - your fortune or fate and the answers that you seek always slip away

You don't really care - you don't have a prayer

Your escape will be your grave



Look who you are - just a member of society

In a tragic comedy - pretending it will be O.K.

Look who you are - just a particle of history

Another faceless casualty - pretending it will be O.K.



So you just give up - year you just give in

You go to sleep and dream at night of the life that might have been

When you've had enough - How much can you take?

Just try to convince yourself everything will be OK

It'll never be OK
