shadow in the child's eye
Before he ever hears a lie
He's looking for something real
Yeah, I know
Just stop all the music
The pollution in our lives
We're looking for something real
Yeah, I know
Doesn't make a sound as I look inside
Implode as I close my eyes
Try to stay in the lines
Maybe it's a matter of time
But what does it matter?
What does is matter?

The shadows inside controlling my life
As confusion blinds my eyes
Facing the signs, I'm losing my mind
Always I'm stranded here
Drowning in pride, wasting my time
As confusion blinds my eyes
Facing the signs, I'm losing my mind
Always I'm stranded here

In a place where the stalkers hide
I try to clear out my mind
I'm looking for something real
Yeah, I know
I break for the exit
As I circle in my mind
Still looking for something real
Yeah, I know
I know

The shadows inside controlling my life
As confusion blinds my eyes
Facing the signs, I'm losing my mind
Always I'm stranded here
Drowning in pride, wasting my time
As confusion blinds my eyes
Facing the signs, I'm losing my mind
Always I'm stranded here

I'm alone
So please
I [bad word]  [bad word] away

The shadows inside controlling my life
As confusion blinds my eyes
Facing the signs, I'm losing my mind
Always I'm stranded here
Drowning in pride, wasting my time
As confusion blinds my eyes
Facing the signs, I'm losing my mind
Always I'm stranded here
