lyrics

today i did not wake
but i have always felt this way
it seems that i have given in
to sweet and deep decay
the world that we have built
and all the ways we make it turn
has burdened me with guilt
and deadened me with cold concern

and why should i try to awake
to realize the mistakes that we've made
we've defined our existence as slaves
and we will not escape from our ways

just point me to where i can see
and be outside our insanity
we are defective creatures and we
are unconscious and down upon our knees

we walk like living dead
and never question what we're told
transmitters in our heads
will tell us what we're supposed to know
shepherds of media
conceal the men behind the curtain
don't know which way is up
cause i'm lost in such an endless circus

and why should i try to awake
to realize the mistakes that we've made
we've defined our existence as slaves
and we will not escape from our ways

just point me to where i can see
and be outside our insanity
we are defective creatures and we
are unconscious and down upon our knees

just point me to where i can see
and be outside our insanity
we are defective creatures and we
are unconscious and down upon our knees
our blindness will slowly eat away at our faith
we designed this and now it just laughs in our face
in our minds it's the way that we were meant to behave
but i promise that no one here will ever be saved

no none of us could ever be saved
