I've seen you go from zero to sixty in seconds and then you stop on a dime
I've seen you shuddering, dreams in the gutter, and how did you wind up here time after time?
Your pa**ive resistance has proved no a**istance and you've fallen slipshod, the way of the chumps
So don't fake suprise when you open your eyes to no merciful arms and you're cold in your slump
And I don't wanna see you sitting by
While your hopes and dreams and pieces of you die
'Cause there's a way in the world today that keeps us paralyzed with fear
Don't ask how, don't look now, just leap and the net will appear
There's a way in the world today that keeps us paralyzed with fear
Don't ask how, don't look now, just leap and the net will appear
I've seen you spew shells of promises from your mouth, never backed up and you're never around
Hiding won't help you now, you're not an ostrich so lift your thick head from that hole in the ground
You gotta get up off your doomed-to-fail bu*t, in this long f**ing drill it's the first step you'll take
The conscience collective is bluntly selective, be strong 'cause they see every move that you make
And I don't wanna see you sitting by
While your hopes and dreams and pieces of you die
'Cause there's a way in the world today that keeps us paralyzed with fear
Don't ask how, don't look now, just leap and the net will appear
There's a way in the world today that keeps us paralyzed with fear
Don't ask how, don't look now, just leap and the net will appear
Don't put too much stock in what anyone might say
Take a hard second look at how you represent yourself each day
Rea**ess the situations fed to you as certain truth
Pay no attention to the sentimental a**holes singing "I believe in yesterday"
'Cause I don't give a f** and neither should you
'Cause yesterday's the past and right now's the only truth
Do it for yourself, man you gotta make a move
And you're only gonna do this when you come to see that
Forever's coming quickly...138
