lyrics

when lessons in life reappear,
have we neglected the truth
with eyes closed in fear?
have we been dreaming our lives away,
just wasting away, a little at a time?
is it our choice, our lives?

are we designed with free will inside
or is the playback reel stuck on constant rewind?
are we designed with free will inside
or are we doomed to be criminals by design?

as time leaks away past our eyes,
how much of our lives are free,
how much do we decide?
do the choices we make really pave the way,
just take it off play, and let me clear my mind
'cause if it's my life, I get to press rewind

hey god, please save me the time to
know if this is a big thrill,
should I live like I'm dying, cause god,
I'm certainly trying to
