We are going nowhere fast Are we made of glass? No one knows, no one knows
Played out at the highest levels On their leather sofas Stop all human interaction Keep them in their comas
Make a start and turn off everything It's only then you'll see your life begin.
Save me Oh, come on and save me From this world Tell me 'Cause I need to know I'm not alone
We are taught to watch the puppets Not the hands controlling Do you think if we pulled out the rug The world would stop revolving?
Make a start and turn off everything It's only then you'll see your life begin.
Save me Oh, come on and save me From this world Save me Oh, come on and save me From this world
Tell me 'Cause I need to know I'm not alone
We are going nowhere fast Are we made of glass? No one knows, no one knows
A wise man told me that we are born with wings But never taught to fly Doesn't that make you wonder why Is it to prevent us from falling out of the sky Or is it to stop us from soaring too high So let me ask you this Are you running around in a cycle Going nowhere fast 'Cause when you look at the man in the mirror Is he made of nothing but glass Were you never aware that mountains don't move themselves Tectonic plates take something to make them shift That all it took was a staff to part the Red Sea All it took was a bus to Montgomery A single woman who refused to give up her seat We fought an entire army with a bouquet of flowers back in the Seventies But now you're taught to remain a hamster on a wheel until you run out of energy Afraid that if you strive for an ideal you end up like a Kennedy It's like being on a treadmill every day but never losing any weight 'Cause to see success the food-for-thought you digest has to change We're stressed then high Get depressed then die But still afraid to question why One of the biggest criminals I ever met wore a suit and tie When did we stop believing? When did we stop marching? When did we stop chanting?
