I must confess, I've never seen nor heard a single bit of proof That there's a light that we must follow on a road to find the truth And all those days we're too afraid to take our lives upon ourselves I deem them wasted; living life in fear is just as bad as Hell
We're born and raised to live a lie When we don't even know what's real And all the places that we hide Are all the places that we feel It isn't easy to escape When there's a stranger at the wheel
I can attest to having played a fool a thousand times or two And though I can't profess to know for certain all I say is true What I can tell you is, we all must pave a path for our own selves Our prayers are useless, and the answers, they're all sitting on a shelf
We're born and raised to live a lie When we don't even know what's real And all the places that we hide Are all the places that we fail It isn't easy to escape When there's a stranger at the wheel
