You're completely detached from all human relations. You've forsaken friendship for a "good education" The ideal that you follow is institutionalized deindividualization. Do everything that you've been taught. Take advantage of your young age. You'll get handed a wealthy future if you maintain perfect grades. Money can grant you many things, but happiness can't be paid for. A diploma can't relieve tribulation. It can only open doors. The kind that close quickly. Better choose now, or you'll be left wanting. Industrial society with programmed beliefs. Superficial values implanted seamlessly. Fierce leveled heads screwed on too tight. Friendly faces come, and go, shrinking in size. Focused on the horizon, leaving present days behind. Sometimes your aspirations destroy lives. Exchange a future of sentimental memories. Fill your every thought with the craving for prestige. You say time won't change us, but that's not what I've seen. Do you ever ask yourself what the hell you are doing?

Dizziness sets in as I awaken This empty bedroom illustrates my mind to life Sometimes I imagine you and I dancing Tomorrow has come, but you never woke up Where are you? I hope it's somewhere sweet Far from Michigan Doubt salivates inside our petrified forest of past chipper heights What the hell's the meaning of living if you no longer exist The more I get off my chest the emptier I become I felt you watching me the other day Maybe I've gone nuts If platitudes could've saved you I'd've saved you from yourself I swear

Have you ever walked down a road In which you weren't allowed to turn back? Sometimes we choose a path to follow And later on regret our first step If we let our failures paralyze us We'll only drift further into dismay Every misstep instills a lesson Our corrections are ours to make Nights of lament, and days of seething Could taint the purest person's intentions If we seek rehabilitation We better exercise cognition Break away from familiar judgment to perceive things differently Will we rise with initiative, or lay undetermined to leave our beds? Nobody ever wants to die regretful, or unrecognized Don't let your disinterests govern your entire lives Stop your war for inner peace, for peace begins with truce When one battles with oneself catastrophe ensues Hide your true identity by wearing your parents shoes Or be the change you want to see, for change begins with you Everyone has those nights when they feel like giving up It feels like you're pressing on the gas But you're still holding in the clutch It's a infamous feeling that we never disclose If we don't preserve than we'll succumb To the wickedness that lingers in our subconscious It's moments of laughter that mend our dispositions We envision a future where happiness is effortless It beacons the question will those days ever come? We'll conquer disillusion Through the strength of our conviction We'll conquer disillusion Through the strength of our conviction We'll conquer disillusion Through the strength of our conviction We'll conquer disillusion Through the strength of our conviction

The earth stood still, or so it seemed When world war three was announced on the TV Hecticity filled the streets internationally Bombs defaced our entire world in a single heartbeat Every breath we take burns The world we knew lays deformed The monsters within us one It was atomic annihilation The blasts of light sent most running home Some accepted their fates, and watched the show Some were the lucky ones, their shelters were made of stone Billions dead, and millions more scavenging irradiated cities Oh my god! As we walked through the streets We stepped over the bodies of the deceased This world has been exchanged For a desolated catastrophe The trajectory of humanity was calculated falsely Where do we go from here in this wasteland? Our homes are ashes in the breeze Our friends, and our families are gone They're gone Grandchildren will share stories Of their grandparents apathy As the world burned

Sometimes I feel cold, even paralyzed My interior world needs to sanitize I've got to step through or I'll dissipate I'll record my step through for my basement tapes Nice to know my kind will be on my side I don't believe the hype And you know you're a terrible sight But you'll be just fine Just don't believe the hype Yeah, they might be talking behind your head Your exterior world can step off instead It might take some friends and a warmer shirt But you don't get thick skin without getting burnt Nice to know my kind will be on my side I don't believe the hype And you know you're a terrible sight But you'll be just fine Just don't believe the hype No, I don't know which way I'm going But I can hear my way around No, I don't know which way I'm going But I can hear my way around No, I don't know which way I'm going But I can hear my way around No, I don't know which way I'm going But I can hear my way around But I can hear my way around Nice to know my kind will be on my side I don't believe the hype And you know you're a terrible sight But you'll be just fine Just don't believe the hype (don't believe the hype) Nice to know my kind will be on my side I don't believe the hype And you know you're a terrible sight But you'll be just fine Just don't believe the hype Nice to know my kind will be on my side I don't believe the hype And you know you're a terrible sight But you'll be just fine Just don't believe the hype
