A crude device; A veil on our eyes 

A simple plan we'd be different from the rest 

And never resign to a typical life 

Common fears start to multiply 

We realize we're paralyzed 

Where'd it go, 

All that precious time? 

Did we even try to stem the tide? 

Why should we waste it on 

Buying into the same old lies? 

The longer we wait around 

The faster the years go by 

It's not too late 

To feel a little more alive 

Make an escape 

Before we start to vaporize 

Doubtless, we've been through this 

So if you want to follow me you should know I was lost then and I am lost now 

And I doubt I'll ever know which way to go
