[Verse 1]
Held down, strangled and abused
Cut down to half a member
Left with his hand tied
Everything points in the wrong direction
[Verse 2]
All the joy disappeared
The negative has penetrated
Once he was in control
What's left, the faintest laughter
[Chorus]
We're out of focus
We've lost control
I blame our ego
And you call me names
[Post-Chorus]
You're told that you are trapped below
And dark signs helped to prove
You got to reach further
For what life shall provide
[Verse 3]
Feeling pressure from the fold
He believes the dream is over
Drained blue eye, scorching fire
The whole meaning becomes undone
[Chorus]
We're out of focus
We've lost control
(Are you afraid?)
I blame our ego
And you call me names
(Do you want to be saved?)
[Post-Chorus]
You're told that you are trapped below
And dark signs helped to prove
You got to reach further
For what life shall provide
[Chorus]
We're out of focus
We've lost control
(Are you afraid?)
I blame our ego
And you call me names
(Do you want to be saved?)
[Post-Chorus]
You're told that you are trapped below
And dark signs helped to prove
You got to reach further
For what life shall provide
