Running, you're running from the ones that let you go Shunning, you're shunning all the places where you've grown Nowhere to hide from the all-seeing eye Every action's predicted before The system of lies spreads disguise through our minds We're fed up but keep asking for more Burning, lights burning They won't let darkness hide your face Learning, you're learning To survive this endless race Stories from books that we read in our youth Come alive from their fictional worlds The rave consumes all, but you live on your own Never feeling defective and spurned Hey, desperate stranger In a world of sin Cross the line of danger That will set you free The future is uncertain Like someone pulls the strings A look behind the curtain Is not easy as it seems Not easy as it seems
