"Prisoners" lyrics

"Prisoners"

It's all in your head the thoughts you have that build your world illusion
The faith you need so you can proceed and build a sane solution
Is it the truth, is there any proof to back up the things you believe in
Or is it a dream to make it seem like a goal that you're achieving

We are the prisoners
Of the system we create
We are the prisoners
Stuck inside the space we made
To escape

What can you do to make it through the mindtricks you're producing
Learn to live with the faith you lack, the hope that you're reducing
You can be cruel and ridicule the current situation
But what will it take for you to break the self humiliation?

We are the prisoners
Of the system we create
We are the prisoners
Stuck inside the space we made
To escape

We're stuck in a rut
We keep on mixing things up and we can't tell what's fiction from fact
The more we all try to live up to the illusion
The more we all fall through the cracks

We are the prisoners
Of the system we create
We are the prisoners
Stuck inside the space we made
To escape
