Goin’ through the motions of life
Buy a car, buy a house, then ya get a wife
To make that dough, you gotta get a job
Better work your way up till your at the top
Stock options, 401K
Everything you earn you gotta put away
Unquestioning day to day
How’d we get so lost along the way?
Driftin’ out and away
Sluggin’ by we don’t ask why
Losin’ touch with each passin day
We can fight so why do we fly
To break free of this path we’re on
Means abandoning the overmind
Standin’ up to tell them they’re wrong
Takin’ control these are our lives
Structures too strong guide the way
We have an important role to play
Feeding these corporate machines
And no one takes a minute to ask what it all means
Cause when we say we’re wonderin’ why
They retort “it’s what you need to get by”
So all’s we can do is try
All’s we can try is to live a lie

I don't need no fame and fortune
I don't need no rock and roll
I just need to sing my song till
The rains come down, it's gonna save my soul
Sing your song like there’s no one listening
Sing your song like there’s no one there
Sing your song like there’s no one listening
Cause your song might never be heard again
Drift away
Do they just drift away
Fade away
Do they all fade away
If your song’s only a jingle
If your song's just in your head
Sing your song like no one’s listening
And sing it loud until you’re dead

Moon eyes chillin’ at the park or a beach or at the show
Can't tell if it's the sun or the stars that spin around your mind just goin' with the flow
It's alright, it's ok, cause you got your friends and you know that
The only thing that matters is right here, right now
Just then, synapses snap back like your hat jack, fat strands of time dilating in your mind, expanding until it's cracked open and fried
Hold up what’s that feeling, see a hole open up in the ceiling when someone asks: "What time is it?"
Time freeze?
Stuck in a minute where you don't wanna be
Time freeze?
Are we starting night or waking up?
Time freeze?
Endless seconds just floating on the breeze
Time freeze?
Time freeze?
Stuck in a minute where you don't wanna be
Time freeze?
Are we starting night or waking up?
Time freeze?
Close your eyes take a journey to that
That place in time
That place in your mind
Where insanity thrives
Moon eyes chillin at the park or a beach or at the show
Can't tell if it's the sun or the stars that spin around your mind just goin' with the flow
It's alright... cause you got your friends and you know that
The only thing that matters is right here, right now
Hold up, heard this all before, must be the curse of 12:34
Looks like I'm stuck in time, but wait, it could be all in my mind
It’s alright, it’s ok, close your eyes and drift away till
Someone asks: "What time is it?"

Driftin' out and away
Sluggin' by we don’t ask why

We can fight so why do we fly
To break free of this path we’re on
Means abandoning the overmind
Standin' up to tell them they’re wrong
Taking control these are our lives
