lyrics

Look alive
What did you think
Was happening here?

You think you could lie
Face in the mud
And this would just change?

We're up in the air
Where is the ground?
It's so hard to breathe

We're up in arms
Everyone's givin' everyone
The third degree

It's in all I see
Are we ever gonna hear the bell toll?
Cuz I've got a really bad feeling
Everybody's just runnin' around
Like chickens with their heads cut off
Watchin' everybody else bleed out
And we're never gonna give it up
And we're never gonna live this down
Wake up

We won't figure out what is going on
Now we can't get out
The blinds already drawn
White knuckles all clawing at the door
And like nothin' they just said "know your role
And carry on"

The emperor's been naked awhile
We know that at least
Look alive
What did you think
Was happening?

Now it's all I see
Come on and let me be your mirror
Cuz we're living in one long dream
That we've all made a night terror
And while the wind knocks you down
You only run to grab your coat
And we're never gonna give it up
And you know you're gonna reap what you
Never mind

We won't figure out what is going on
Now we can't get out
The blinds already drawn
White knuckles all clawing at the door
They just said "everything's under control
carry on"

If you wanna be forgotten
Well, you better forget it
Hindsight isn't 20/20
If you don't know what happened

If you wanna be forgotten
Well, you better forget it
Hindsight isn't 20/20
If you don't know what happened
