(Verse 1)
Streets are bleedin' red, a crimson tide, yeah
Boats of sin are driftin', nowhere to hide, yeah
Flowin' through the city, every single town
This heavy current draggin' everyone down
(Pre-Chorus)
Electronic haze, a digital control
These vacant faces got a hold on their soul
Heads stay bowed low, ain't lookin' at the sky
Missin' all the ghosts of feelings that just died
(Chorus)
Can't hear the whispers of the broken and the lost
Payin' no attention, countin' up the cost
Screams in the air, but the signal's jammed and weak
Pre-programmed silence, the conscience can't speak
(Verse 2)
Touch is gettin' colder, a fractured embrace
Family ties are shattered, leavin' empty space
Apathy's the virus, spreadin' on the breeze
Broken connections fallin' at our knees
(Pre-Chorus)
Electronic haze, a digital control
These vacant faces got a hold on their soul
Heads stay bowed low, ain't lookin' at the sky
Missin' all the ghosts of feelings that just died
(Chorus)
Can't hear the whispers of the broken and the lost
Payin' no attention, countin' up the cost
Screams in the air, but the signal's jammed and weak
Pre-programmed silence, the conscience can't speak
(Bridge)
Then a wild wind blows, a fire in their eyes
Someone's breakin' through, beneath these digital skies
Runnin' through the chaos, tryin' to make 'em see
But they're trapped inside the parade, eternally
Alone in Times Square, a light against the gray
Surrounded by the sleepers, pushin' them away
These electronic zombies, lost in the machine
Killin' off the free minds, the ones who intervene
(Chorus)
Can't hear the whispers of the broken and the lost
Payin' no attention, countin' up the cost
Screams in the air, but the signal's jammed and weak
Pre-programmed silence, the conscience can't speak
(Outro)
Won't be plugged in, no, won't take the design
Won't get infected, keepin' this soul of mine
Government's got their needles, but I'm breakin' free
From this digital hypnosis, for all the world to see.
