Fear...it's the air we breathe
A tightrope with no net beneath
It's humming through our veins
In a whispering refrain
Watching, waiting, floating on the tide
Like a prison, we're all trapped inside
A convenient lie:
You are what you buy
I've had enough (we've had enough)
Still we just can't get enough
In a heartbeat all these words fade into air
So surrender and accept the truth that life ain't fair
Our devotion to the ways in which we steal
It indicts us, yet invites us, to embrace the real
