Rat race! We'll run and become alone in the

Rat race! Their dreams will become your own

In the long run we all fall behind

Because our greed will be the death of mankind

They say that past, present and future is all the same

Along a line strung with change, flowing stories, and names

Short sighted, narrow minded ants in the dirt

They told me, “Straighten up and fly right” as if I was worse

Than the rats they test everyday straight from the lab

To run their race, be their ace, disappear without a trace

Out there in the real world

Lies a finish line and they're clocking times

They say, “Don't look back”, “Get on back track”

“Eyes on the prize”, it's no fucking surprise

Don't look back

Rat race! We'll run and become alone in the

Rat race! Their dreams will become your own

In the long run we all fall behind

Because our greed will be the death of mankind

The only thing is that we're now out of time

But if we open our eyes then we will learn to fly

The only thing is that we're now out of time

But if we open our eyes then we will learn to fly

So do you fade with a heavy heart

Heavy pocket or mind?

Heavy heart

Through the looking glass forever outward

Are you there or are you watching?

Through the looking glass forever outward

Are you there or are you watching?

Through the looking glass forever outward

Are you there or are you watching?

Out there in the real world

Lies a finish line and they're clocking times

They say, “Don't look back”, “Get on back track”

“Eyes on the prize”, it's no fucking surprise

So do you fade with a heavy heart

Heavy pocket or mind?

Everything you are

Is to be praised or blamed
