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
