Waking Up

Humming in my head and I don't know why
Hearing all the words, are they really mine
Tangled in the thoughts, of another man
Blurring of what's mine, and where you begin, oh

Ricochet, 'n' through the fray, and now that I'm waking up
I'm no longer under your mirage
Pulling back, now on the shades, interrupt your picture show
Hit the switch and turn it all off

Stuck inside of this machine
Hanging by another's string
Believing that this voice is me, well it's not
Let it end tonight

Now that I'm unraveling this, this twisted up facade
I can see so clearly now that, I'm waking up
Under the illusion of this, this perpetual fraud
Handcuffed to a life that isn't mine

Ricochet, 'n' through the fray, and now that I'm waking up
I'm no longer under your mirage
Pulling back, now on the shades, interrupt your picture show
Hit the switch and turn it all off

Stuck inside of this machine
Hanging by another's string
Believing that this voice is me, well it's not
Let it end tonight

Oh, no no I can't believe this
How, I have been so deceived yeah
No going back

Embedded here in this code, yeah
No master of this mind, no
I'm breaking out
I can't live like this, no not now
Knowing that it's not my own life
Oh no, oh no

Ricochet, 'n' through the fray, and now that I'm waking up
I'm no longer under your mirage
Pulling back, now on the shades, interrupt your picture show
Hit the switch and turn it all off

Stuck inside of this machine
Hanging by another's string
Believing that this voice is me, well it's not
Living in another's dream
So convinced that I am free
No longer will I be deceived, no I won't
This ends tonight
