Mannequins

Each day feels darker than the last
As we travel down this twisted path
Of instant selfish satisfaction
Need a distraction
I'm complacent in my vacancy
Reality's too much for me

I never used to be afraid
To be alone, but something's changed
The danger is the stranger in my head
Do I wait it out or draw the line
Reasoning seems a waste of time
The hardest part is knowing I'm to blame

You know we're all to blame
For all this disconnect
Cause and effect
And it's headed for disaster

Hey
Can you feel the pressure now
Hey
Innocence is underground

Oh will somebody
Give me reason
To keep myself in control
It's taking its toll on me

When will we see
It's a manufactured tragedy and
When will we be
More than mannequins
More than wasted dreams

I never used to be afraid
To be alone, but something's changed
The danger is the stranger in my head
Do I wait it out or draw the line
Reasoning seems a waste of time
The hardest part is knowing I'm to blame

We've got to stop turning our backs
We've got to stop turning our backs
Or we won't last
Mannequins

You'll take your last breath
And you'll waste your life
We're all just faceless copies
In a hollow paradigm
