Song Lyrics

Slipping away
Are we sleeping at the wheel and unaware now
Has the population put us in a trance now
Overtaken by the tide and washed away now
What do you say now

In a daze
Are we moving in the motion of the crowd now
Slowly losing everything we were about now
Is it time to draw a line in the sand now
And take a stand now

Somebody talk to me, am I all alone?
When are we gonna wake up?
Are we numb, is the feeling gone?
Tell me what went wrong are we numb?
Close your eyes let the world pass by
Now you're hypnotized are we numb?

Moving away
From the heart of everything we tried to be now
Just stop look and tell me what you see now
We've been taken like the winds across the sea now
We've gotta break free now

Mesmerized
Desensitized
Before my eyes
I'm paralyzed

Somebody talk to me, am I all alone?
When are we gonna wake up?
Are we numb is the feeling gone?
Tell me what went wrong are we numb?
Close your eyes let the world pass by
Now you're hypnotized are we numb?

We're drifting
We're dreaming
We're floating away

So many times we just watch pass by
The tick tock of life leaving us hypnotized
Mesmerized a stun gun leaving you in a daze
Better wake up now before you find yourself slipping away

Are we numb, is the feeling gone?
Tell me what went wrong are we numb?
Close your eyes let the world pass by
Now you're hypnotized are we numb?
