Wake up young man. The world is not what it seems
They've twisted your mind and they've poisoned your dreams
They've found all the holes in your heart
And now they're going to rip you apart
The second that you drop your guard
They'll hit you right between the eyes
They'll hit you right between the eyes
Run from the dark and seek shade in the sun
Lie when you speak but don't speak with your tongue
They know that you'll die for your art
So they've filled every hole in your heart
But the second that you drop your guard
They'll hit you right between the eyes
They'll hit you right between the eyes
They'll hit you right between the eyes
They'll hit you right between the eyes
You won't see it coming son, nobody does
Your mind's not as quick or as sharp as it was
The answers won't fall from the sky
So don't spend the rest of your life wondering why
When you feel like you're finally alive
They'll hit you right between the eyes
They'll hit you right between the eyes
They'll hit you right between the eyes
They'll hit you right between the eyes
