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
