"Ghosts On Parade" lyrics

"Ghosts On Parade"

I thought we had it under control
The system's got us digging a hole
Hiding from the ghosts on parade
Smiling back at fear and rage
Fear on the faces of men
Fear on the faces on men

Gridlocked in the blink of an eye
Sober for a day and a night
Carrying the weight of the world
Feeling life is passing you by
Fear on the faces of men
Fear on the faces of men

Maybe we'll find time to free our minds
Somehow we'll buy more time, time again

Do you feel that we're just losing the race?
Wasting time running in circles
Climbing up cliffs to escape
Reaching the summit then falling down
Fear on the faces of men
Fear on the faces of men
Men

Maybe we'll find time to free our minds
Somehow we'll buy more time, time again
Just when you thought we could never get out
Never get out
Never get out

Figure it out
We'll never get out
Figure it out
We'll never get out

It's time to call the safety brigade
We're balanced on the blade, on a knife's edge
Fear on the faces of men
Fear on faces of men

Maybe we'll find time to free our minds
Somehow we'll buy more time, time again
Just when you thought we could never get out
Never get out
Never get out

Maybe we'll find time, free our minds
Or we'll never get out
No, we'll never get out

We'll never get out
Figure it out
We'll never get out
