lyrics

For the pure sake of progress
You could take it from me
You’re always bending the truth and putting dirt in your eyes until this world is something you want to see
And on the note of suggestion
You’re burning out like a wick
And though you snuffed the flame, you’re trying to place blame on those around who are still holding their breath

Are you awake? Is anyone listening - To the Devil and God clawing at the walls of your skull, trying to escape?
Are you awake? Is anyone out there? And was isolation all you dreamed it be or did you need someone to care?

Circle back to the center
In focus and in frame
Without a structure to reference or hold the thought to dissect the schema loses all its shape
Sometimes it’s alarming
I can’t quite tell what I missed
And though the path of the knife can be seen, it still seems like its act had permanence
Indulge yourself

Are you awake? Is anyone listening - To the Devil and God clawing at the walls of your skull, trying to escape?
Are you awake? Is anyone out there? And was isolation all you dreamed it be or did you need someone to care?

Some say the apple never falls from the tree, but even so, I dearly hope you’ll grow into twice the man you expect yourself to be

Are you awake? Is anyone listening - To the Devil and God clawing at the walls of your skull, trying to escape?
Are you awake? Is anyone out there? And was isolation all you dreamed it beas you drowned all your potential in apathy and alcohol
So strangely assured that there’s not a force on earth that could ever change your course
